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

[Shaun]

After several days and even more phone calls with DPD, I finally have mine!

I'll say this for DPD, their people who deal with phone calls are all very polite and they all tried to be as helpful as they could, even when circumstances meant they couldn't really do a whole lot.

After being concerned for a little bit, my game finally went from Kansas to Tennessee, and departed Alabama earlier this morning. Hopefully I still get it by the end of the day tomorrow.

 

[Sasseli]

I guess, luck has abandoned me again, today.
Tomorrow, please let it be tomorrow...

 

[Relaya]

I feel exactly the same Sasseli. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

 

[Cannon_Fodder]

I just hope I get my shipping notice tomorrow haha...ha...

 

[Dee]

Yeah, it's three days away from the official release date and Best Buy hasn't updated my order from "Pre-Ordered, get it April 10th" yet. I'm kinda worried.

 

[Kai Schulen]

Mine is still in Ontario, CA, United States...and it's been like that for the past 4 days. Expected day of delivery and time of delivery has not changed.

Trying so hard not to be salty. ;_;

 

[looneymoon]

eb games has yet to call me. beginning to think they never will. idk when I'll be getting this game

I'll chip through RE3 and Persona 5 while I wallow in my depression.

 

[Tennyo]

Oh no Rishi

I hope you get it soon!

 

[Sasseli]

By now I'm really doubtful I'll even get it "early" (can't talk about early anymore, since so many already have it...). I might not even get it until Saturday, because Friday is a holiday.
Well, I didn't want to get depressed over a few days, so I'll try not to...

Hey, just think: when you finally get it in your hands, the wait will have been worth it!

Anyways, mine reached here at about 0400 this morning, and it's loaded on the delivery truck!!

I was on the same boat. I figured they would take a huge amount of time sifting through the in-store pre-orders. I gave up on the idea of getting my physical copy on time weeks ago.

 

[Suzaku]

Mine shipped yesterday and is currently en route, with expected delivery by end of day Friday. It's FedEX though and they always seem to fuck it up somehow.

 

[Makoeyes987]

It has arrived.

And holy shit, this fucking box is larger than I imagined. What the fuck.

And the artbook is smaller than I imagined! LOL

Now I simply wait for the data disc's installation.

 

[Odysseus]

It seems like my copy is due to arrive in Atlanta any time now, but probably won't actually be out for delivery until tomorrow. Anybody happen to know if you can pick up packages from UPS facilities?

I highly doubt they'd allow for pickup from their facilities given the current circumstances.

True, true. I'm just eager.

 

[Jimmy XH]

Well this is a tease, just sitting on my PS4 all installed and counting down slowly. At least it's got a 1 in front of it now.

Like others have said in other threads, just be careful out there if you don't want to get spoiled. I muted just about every hashtag I could think of on Twitter but even YouTube is becoming a bit of a minefield with recent uploads slipping through the net. It wasn't even a big spoiler I saw, but just made me very wary of what else could get out there.

We are so close...

 

[Cannon_Fodder]

So, I just got my preorder DLC code email, and I no longer have the option of cancelling my order from my account. No email of shipping confirmation though. So it's happening potentially maybe?

Im supposed to get mine today! Are the boxes really separate like I've seen?

I really hope they release a larger artbook later this year. I heard the one in the FCE is pretty small

The book is about the size of the game disc case. So yeah, it's small. But it's got a wonderful hard cover and the pages are a nice, glossy quality.

And yes they're packaged separately but they're in one big ass box.

....And I really didn't expect the Play Arts Kai Hardy Daytona Bike to be this fucking big. I'm gonna have to rearrange some shelves to fit it cause it's massive.

There's that "world preview" book coming later in the year that'll be more like a proper art book, among other things.


aaaaaa its right there! I could get there in like, an hour! But its just gonna sit until tomorrow! I am not gonna be able to focus at work tonight, geez.

You lucky bunch that are getting it today better enjoy the shit outta that game, for the both of us!

 

[looneymoon]

EB updated a status... in French.

Lucky for my me my ability to read french is very good.

Looks like they're introducing a web-based system... 2 days before launch.

Yeah, I ordered that with the polygon figures.
I guess I was just hoping SE would do like what they did with ff15 art books. I'll be satisfied with the world preview, but more artwork is never a bad think for me haha

Just to let you know now, if the artwork is your primary motivator for that book don't get your hopes up. The artbook included with the Deluxe Edition has more art than the World Preview one. I have it in Japanese and was disappointed.

I'm gonna get the English World Preview book because I want to read the story and see the other stuff in it. But the art is sorta lacking.

Hope your game arrives soon!
