    Scams?

    You do have a set of eyes to read don't you?! It doesn't release until the 30th September, and so does the DLC that can be downloaded for it. (Just to add an edit to my message, or the 25th September for early access for the pre order customers of the Deluxe edition)

    I'm confused as to how you can think any differently? Have I misunderstood anything?

    You should read up on things before you post stuff. This is perfectly normal plus it says pre order so you should know it wouldn't be available until a certain date. FYI the exact same thing happened with the tsw5 pre order as well.

    Where is the scam if you don't inform yourself properly before buying?

    So then what's the point of pre-ordering when you have to wait centuries for a game to publicly release and then you can't play it!

    You’ve hit the nail on the head there.

    Still, why on earth are you paying for things without reading what you are (or aren’t in this case) getting?

    You are playing early cause you pre ordered you get it on the 25th and not 30th you really should have read it properly. It does state that early access is from the 25th of September

    If you watch the DTG Direct stream did they not say clearly, the date of the standard release, followed by the date for early access?

    And if you didn't see the stream, have you not read any of the articles or FAQs? It clearly shows the release dates to avoid any type confusion.

    The pre-order is so they can have your money now. Every business needs cash to pay their expenses and every business wants that cash as fast or early as possible.

    Also, it may help them gauge the health of the business by comparing the pre-sale numbers to previous years.

    If you preorder, there are bonuses. For example for call of duty, you get additional skins. For other games, you might get merch, new equipment to use in game, artbooks, music and so much more. But that does not mean you play the game immediately

    How come everything is a bad thing in tsw, but does not apply to every other game that allows preorders. Even the biggest of games have preorders months before the game even comes out, but I don't see such extreme reactions there.

    Maybe actually read and understand what you're doing before going on a useless rant.

    Humanity is royally up poop creek with no paddles when it can't grasp simple things like how a pre-order works. I really need to find a way to fix that spacecraft of mine and escape back to my home planet......

    The xbox store literally tells you when said content will be available on the store page;

    Deluxe Edition;
    17564636945981956549628779928158.jpg

    Special Edition
    17564637654375372265846789558293.jpg

    And finally, standard edition;

    Hello folks,

    I'm going to close this thread as it's being discussed elsewhere and an explanation to the OP's problem has been given.
    The OP made a mistake; no need to continuously beat them over the head or insult them by questioning their abilities. So let's move on.

    All the best,
    Jan
