This is out on the 10th, right? I googled it and it told me the 10th. But i have this itching feeling its out tonight at midnight

The price we pay for taking the "easy route" and going digital I'm afraid, we have to wait till Friday, were all in this together.

don't be too hasty, smyth's shipped my order yesterday but haven't provided a working tracking link, considering it went from order to shipped in until 3 hours I can forgive them for not putting in a working tracking number in the email/my account but I'm now sitting by the letterbox waiting/wondering if today's the day.

My postie has been and gone, with no FFVII I may add, mine went out yesterday, my link also does not work with tracking, could it be sent by DPD with Smyth's?

I normally only ever collect with Smyth's, never got anything delivered from them...

RedXIV · 07-04-2020 10:07am

Doorbell rang. Never moved as fast in my life as the postie never rings unless there is a package.

Everyone can relax, my wife's makeup subscription box arrived.

So many emotions in such a short timeframe, you probably should lie down.

Someone ripped the audio for the game, so you can listen before the soundtrack is released in a few days.

Postman just left, I am final fantasy-less unfortunately. Smyths sent the dispatch email yesterday.

Could dpd possibly deliver it instead?

fixXxer · 07-04-2020 10:18am

And there was me just looking for tunes to listen to to get me through the workday, they nailed the ost!

Speaking of, I can imagine a lot of people humming this when their postie arrives with the goods

something similar here, doorbell rang, got down to see the postie at the house next door and said "Sorry, I rang your door by mistake"

I'm sorry but that's hilarious :pac:

I'm 8 hours in. Although I am enjoying it I do find the reactor 5 stuff is excessively padded.

I'm also disappointed in some of the visuals. Main characters look amazing and the combat looks great. But sector 7 looks weirdly last gen and uses a static backdrop image for the upper plate which I find a bit offputting. Reminds me of the Halo ring a little bit but in this fidelity it sticks out how the background is lower res than everything else and doesn't look right when you move the camera. Reminds me a little of how the backgrounds move in Duke Nukem 3D. It's not as bad as that but it's definitely not very good looking imo.

There are things I think that are incredible about the game, like that Airbuster fight. I want to grab a recording of it when I figure it out. But assets are sadly very inconsistent and don't always give the impression that this is a AAA game. Especially next to the likes of what we've seen from God of War, Gears 5, RDR2 and so on.

@Zero-Cool

Did your An Post tracking updated to out for delivery or anything like that? Or did it just turn up...

Yeah, some poor texturing here and there. There is a bit early on with a guy looking at a high res poster, when the cutscene ends its a low res PS2 like blur. Also the

door on the apartment looks much lower quality than the rest of the room

Noticed that too especially the door on the room but I've read there's a day 1 patch ( out Friday I guess ) that will fix an issue with textures not loading correctly. Happening with some NPCs for me and certain posters / objects not loading their hi-res textures properly... or not loading them quick enough

I feel remarkably mature and adult by saying I'm delighted for you as I sit here twiddling my thumbs waiting for the arrival of my own

rm212 · 07-04-2020 1:20pm

Mine says it was assigned a delivery route with AP but still hasn’t arrived yet

Vicxas · 07-04-2020 1:59pm

This is horrible

rm212 · 07-04-2020 2:12pm

Finally arrived!!

ReverseGiraffe · 07-04-2020 2:25pm

Anyone ordered from GameStop haven't heard anything back since I ordered on Friday

seandotcomm · 07-04-2020 2:27pm

mate of mine received his gamestop order yesterday

BloodBath · 07-04-2020 2:39pm

Super jelly right now. My most anticipated game in years and no PS4 to play it.

How long is this PS4 exclusive for?

Mine hasn’t even shipped yet and I ordered on Wednesday

A year apparently, was mentioned by someone else earlier in thread.

I can't wait a year. I'll just tip down to xtra vision and rent a console and the game. Oh wait it's not 1997 anymore.

Lan Di · 07-04-2020 2:58pm

Ordered from Smyths on the 27th of March, dispatched Saturday and in the postbox today!

RedXIV · 07-04-2020 3:01pm

Did anyone get it from square directly yet? Never again ordering from the publisher since everyone else seems to have gotten their's already

I honestly thought you'd be first to get it.

Ordering it untracked was a mistake. half their website says it's not yet shipped and the other half says it is. I'd be fine if it just told me "You're getting it Friday", but it's the not knowing that's killing me.

Icyseanfitz · 07-04-2020 3:32pm

any online store with physical stock at the moment, i thought id be okay with buying digital but i feel like i owe it to buy this physical now

martingriff · 07-04-2020 3:40pm

So waiting to see if the physical copy I bought in Gamestop will come by Friday (bought the 1 up from the standard) IF I don't have it by then I will go digital with the standard

Ordered just before 2pm on Friday so may have missed that shipment. I am assuming there will be a status update tomorrow as it will be the third working day.

They seem to have lost my pre-order after they closed my local store. No tracking order, nothing.

I ordered mine months ago but is was in a shop. Heard they might try to ship them out but have heard nothing else

nah, its separate from online unfortunately. you can't even carry your deposit over to an online order and have to wait till the shops reopen to apply for your refund.

They should have sent you a mail to reorder to deliver. Mine was in a spam folder, reordered last week, was delivered Saturday. Anything you've paid against the collection from store can be redeemed when (if) they reopen.

ussjtrunks · 07-04-2020 11:06pm

Do ye think any of the supermarkets might get it in like Tesco’s?
