FFVII Remake Delivery Delay Notice from Square (AKA Shipping Woes)

[Shademp]

Starting to feel it now

It's creeping up on me

No no it's okay, I can wait

I can...wait. I...can...

 

[Claymore]

Same boat as Lex. Got a pic from my housemate that the 1st Class Edition has arrived!

My SE account still says 'Requested' lol.

 

[Theozilla]

One thing that helps, is remembering that people who play it April 10 or later will likely get to play it with a Day/Week-One patch (plus the bonus DLC). So it’s arguably a better first playthrough experience than early players.

 

[Knights of the Round]

Shipping from Square has finally updated, and says my copy should be here on the 8th. We shall see... It's coming from Las Vegas.

8th here, too. Vegas, as well.

Was hoping for a bit sooner, but at least I have a date now so don't have to barge out the front door every time a big truck rolls by.

Guys

1st Class Edition is here. I checked my Square Enix Orders page last night before bed and it hadn't changed from "requested".

Glad you got yours early. You and all the rest of the staff here deserve it for the work you've put in here.

The Daytona is really nice from the vids I've seen of it.

Pretty easy for someone who's already played the game to say, Mr. bourgeoisie.

@Knights of the Round did you get a second email when they specified a delivery date? Mine still isn't giving me one.

But I want to experience ALL THE BLEMISHES and see how the game changes over time

Yeah.. that's really helping right now..

They only sent me an initial email saying it'd been shipped, but at that time there was no UPS tracking info. I went back to the email today to check tracking again, and now it has location/delivery date.

Might just take another day. It did for me.

Also, once it was received by UPS, SE store status changed from 'Delivery in Progress' to 'Shipped'.

 

[Odysseus]

Hm... mine says "shipped" too. Maybe just gonna take a while to update on UPS. I'll just consider the 8th as when I should expect it too, for my sanity's sake. 2 days early babyyy.

I actually haven’t played the game already, I’ve just skim watched parts of others who got the game early and who have streamed/recorded their playthroughs.
My pre-order is still waiting an update on Amazon.

Yeah, I can wait until then if I have to. At least I'll have it for the weekend. Already took off Friday/Monday.

Oh, I'm sorry. I saw you were one of the ones in the spoiler thread. I guess you know what they say about making assumptions though...
The struggle is real, brother.

My shipment status at the Square Enix store still says "Preparing order" u.u Just send it already ;_;

Please can I borrow it?

Mine on the SE store is still saying that it is requested so my best bet is it'll probably show up when you least expect it to

When I received my shipping notification, it took 2 days before UPS gave a delivery date.

 

[Sasseli]

IN PREPARATION!!!!

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Mine still says "Shipment Initiated," same as it has since last Saturday.

Buuut the invoice now shows the Chocobo Summon DLC, which wasn't there yesterday:

 

[Erotic Materia]

Mine shows the summon DLC stuff too! That wasn't there before today.

I hope that's a good indicator of...something?

 

[Odysseus]

Yeah, mine has the summons as well. The DLC codes were printed on slips of paper presumably, so that's probably why they're on the shipping.

 

[Misterbadguy]

My copy arrived at just after 5pm UK time, and yeah my order never changed from Requested either. Presuming they were just firing them out of the warehouse as quickly as possible, tracking be damned.

The Hardy is hilariously enormous, I love it.

 

[pxp]

Happy for you UK guys but this makes me depressed

Happy for you UK guys but this makes me depressed

Same. I have a feeling I'll just be getting it on the normal release date, which is fine, but it kinda sucks knowing people are playing it already. I've been waiting for this game for ages, but adding to the stress and chaos around what's been happening globally, it makes having to wait even more difficult. I need something to distract myself and my depression is making it difficult for me to find the motivation to do anything in lieu of playing this game. I guess I shouldn't put all my eggs in one basket. There are other things I can do, but I just don't want to do them. I want to play this game and I want to play it now. Obviously I can't, but it'd be nice.
