niall78 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'd love to pre-order but (again) a customer can't just order a digital download. Hard copy postage is expensive for us in Europe.No big deal I suppose. I'll just wait till it is released to pay for digital only. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SgtHatred Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 money that would go to paying USPS for a disc I'll never use will instead go into a 34" ultrawide display for enhancement of nazi-killing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordhedgwich Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 But that would not be a pre-order.Michaelsure it would 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 sure it wouldLet me enlarge on that. The pre-orders exist as a convenience for BFC to give them some idea of how many discs they will need to manufacture in order to meet demand for those. But the DL-only versions can be turned out instantaneously (more or less) in whatever numbers are needed. So no pre-orders there and no waiting. As soon as the game is ready to go, you can buy it and DL it with no delay. Just close your eyes and pretend that the pre-orders do not exist at all since they do not pertain to you or your desires. I'm not getting anything ahead of you, unless the other guys who pre-ordered can keep their yaps shut, in which case I might get a 24 hour jump on you. But I have already shucked out my dough and it has been deducted from my bank account while you get to keep yours a few more weeks. So go out and have a night on the town and consider that it is courtesy of BFC, who haven't taken your money yet. Right now, they are probably having a night on the town courtesy of me!Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vet 0369 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I received an e-mail yesterday that my preordered digital version is ready for download, but I didn't read it until I was a work today.

simon21 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Seriously, It's 2016. Can you just throw my disk in the trash ? I'd really prefer having a download only option and give you the postage difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
