Talking with Amazon the operator thought it was an error and thought changing the shipping might help. I should now get the game on the 5th or 6th if this works. Kinda pissed since I'm a prime member, I'll give em hell if it doesn't ship by Thursday. Oh well this gives me time to play Rage (and beat Demon's Souls again).

I may end up doing this and trying to redbox the game until my copy gets here in that case.

I'm gonna leave everything the same, as if this is Amazon's gently caress up they tend to give discounts for their mistakes. Oh well!

Apparently Newegg is still holding pre-orders. I guess that means they'll ship at some point on Tuesday?

I preordered this from Amazon as well and I received an email saying that it shipped, but for some reason it doesn't appear on my Amazon page. I can't track it. Hopefully they just messed up or something, and we'll get our game tomorrow.

If you're checking your open orders it won't show up there once it's shipped.

I'd wait until tomorrow. My order is still listing gently caress all so I might have made it worse for myself (pre-ordered in September 15), I'll see if it changes tomorrow. I hate saying it but I should have pre-ordered with the local Gamestop.

Seriously. :stare: Don't they give you any warning about what recommendations your video is going to tag? I'm afraid of my recommended videos now.

I haven't had any luck with Amazon either, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it ends up shipping soon. I won't be all that disappointed if it doesn't show up, since I'm not going to have a whole lot of time to play it until Thursday. Have fun, dudes!

If you selected release-day shipping from Amazon, it'll be there sometime tomorrow barring an act of god. Their order pages aren't always instantaneous. For example, I just got an email informing me a blu-ray I received last Thursday has shipped. You may be 30 hours into the game before they inform you it's on its way.

Whoever is going to be bringing this to my house in their lovely Honda civic (I live right by an Amazon distribution center) better hurry the hell up tomorrow, I want this by the time I wake up.

Otherwise I feel sorry for people trying to kill the dragon in Demon Souls on 1-2 because I'm going to invade the poo poo out of you.

My UPS guy rules, he always swings by my place by 10am at the latest.

So I'll get to die and die and die for 4-5 hours then go to class where I'll think about dying for a couple of hours the I'll come back home and die some more!

I preordered in May but I didn't know about release day shipping so I was going to get it in two weeks. Changed shipping to one day and now I get it on the sixth or something. :unsmith:

Also I ordered that Future Press guide. Going to leave it sealed for a week or two.

I'm a little pissed that I won't be able to get the game until Thursday. But I swear to God, from the second I pick it up until the last possible minute I need to leave to be at work, I will be playing that game nonstop.

I can't wait to break a controller (again).

North Florida here and it hasn't shipped yet. Amazon is usually fairly good about that kind of thing, but sometimes the site is a bit slow to update. I've ordered things from them that I've had delivered then got the notice that it was shipping so assuming UPS doesn't send my package to some random address like they seem to enjoy doing, I'm not terribly worried.

So I basically just pre-ordered Dark Souls at gamestop and the chick working there said I can come in at midnight for the release. Does anyone know if that's going to be for the collector's edition? Is it just gamestop that is giving those out for preorders?

It'll depend on stock. I did a walk-in preorder and they were out of CE so only had standard. I'm gonna cancel my Amazon order if it doesn't change from "estimated ship date: 10/7/11" to "shipped" before midnight. If it shows "shipped," I'll just cancel the gamestop preorder. I've gotta be an adult and go to work tomorrow anyway.

Another thing to bear in mind is that once it's gone from your Open Orders page, you'll likely need to change the date range for your My Orders page since it defaults to the last month or something like that. For example, I preordered in April or something, so if I want to track my shipment through Amazon, I have to tell it to display all orders in 2011.

Yeah I have to set it to the last 6 months and scroll go back 5 pages every time I want to track mine. It's kind of a pain.

Dex upgrades your dodge too. He might want to improve that a bit because heavy armor dodging is kind of painful without it.
