I have just started downloading the ultimate edition, 110gbp!!! although this will be the only game i buy for the next 12 months i should imagine.
That was my twisted logic of paying an extortionate amount too. It's an entirely unjustifiable amount for a single game but will enjoy all the DLC, early access to all the maps.

My 5 "free" battlepacks were total crap, I ended up with 3 skins for the same gun (The Mondragon?).

I am hoping servers don't reset at midnight tonight in terms of progress? Would be annoyed if so.

If anyone is interested, there is a PH discord channel, where most of the talk is about games.

I preordered from Game, presumably I'll get a message at some point to tell me I can collect.

Having played the Beta on the PC and the XBO, and being a little let down by the graphics on the XBO, they're so much more improved on the full game.

Also, I love how the single player shifts between FMVs and the playing.

I've completed two of the campaigns on Hard and they're really not that, although each mission has a specific route which if you follow makes it easy.

Most surreal moment so far has been playing as a messenger pidgeon, flying over the battlefield...

If you pre-ordered online, you'll have to wait for it to be delivered. frown

Had the same problem with Destiny - pre-ordered at Game online, didn't turn up. Local Game store couldn't help.

It was in-store - I only went to Game because I had credit on one of their gift cards and wanted to get some of the bonus content without going crazy with the collector edition or early adopter.

Any sign of how much they are going to extract from us for premium or whatever else they tempt us with to get the all the content?

Same as usual I think, £40.

Why? How do you know if you'd like it or not?

And does it really matter? If I pay for something I'd rather not have it ruined for me by a careless post from someone impatient enough to pay more for an extra couple of days access.

Not saying I wouldnt like it, but it just hadnt appealed to me. Multiplayer is why I purchase the game.

Morrisons open at midnight to sell it. I noticed they also have the expansion pack for sale as well.

Been playing online a little earlier as my copy arrived this morning.. Some people are already level 12?!?!

It is rather good, some lovely new weapons. Graphics are quite astounding for an online game.

Oh, and you play a bit of single player whilst it installs the full game. Rather poignant IMHO
