I've ordered fallout 4 quite excited now

Same here. It's the first game I've pre-ordered in a long time!

Might be late to mention this but just seen on Reddit that Game has cancelled Pip boy edition preorders?

Yep, discussed earlier up this page. Don't think it's all of them, just some.

Thanks for GMG code - didn't seem worth the risk (however small) to save £4 by going for a grey site Roll on Tuesday!

Edit - They are also on quidco incase anyones got an account.

Just ordered from GMG and got the code straight away. Looking forward to the preload. With regard to Game UK, wasn't there a similar situation with pre-orders a few years ago? Can't remember which game it involved, but it was big news at the time and one of the reasons the company lost so much business.

I have two pipboy editions on order.
I got an email for each of them today. No price errors.

Status showing as 'Unshipped' on the website atm.
Hope there aren't any problems as one is a birthday gift.

Hope it's not mine as I cancelled my US Pipboy edition -.-

didn't you pay 16.66 as a deposit?

i think it's a processing error chug only paid 99.99

Got the same e-mail here. Checked CC and only been charged £83.32 and never paid a deposit as they screwed that up! (although the e-mail has the -£20 discount)

Am happy for them to take the additional money to make it add up to £99.99 but come on Game.... some of your recent e-mails regarding this have been terrible.. Wouldn't be surprised if companies stop giving them "exclusives" now.

Does anyone know how long the purple gaming store holds onto pre-orders for?

I have the pipboy edition on pre-order but due to work I won't be able to collect it until friday.

48 hours max. Was told this recently myself by them.

So when does the pre load start?

Pete Hines @DCDeacon

We will offer preloading for Fallout 4 on PC, Xbox One, and PS4. Exact day/time TBA. All should be available a few days before launch day

6:04 PM - 26 Oct 2015

 

[MooMoo444]

48hr should be enough time to DL it, even on slower connections.

I'm hoping so, I use my sleepytimes to let steam max my connection, any other time and I get the choice between either dling or playing online games :/

I swear the world (or just Bethesda) have gone mad:

Just ordered from GMG using a 20% off code (either COHHCA-RNAGES-G20OFF or FALLOU-T20PER-CNTOFF) to bring the price down to £32 and I got the key instantly.

Preload should be live at 9PM tonight

Wheeee thanks I pre-ordered with GMG a few days ago. Just activated my key on steam. Happy with my decision now to pay the extra £4

 

[Karateyid]

so when is the 'preload' available from ? nevemind just refreshed n saw previous post

been a while since I used steam.. how do you activate your code on it ?

 

[Intra-Agnostic]

Seems that even if your order does get messed up they aren't cancelling orders...or so their help twitter says.

Read your post, checked cdkeys v gmg, only £2.10 difference now. Purchased via gmg, got key, ready for preload.

Awesome

1997 phoned, they want their graphics back...

Spoiler

They really could have improved the graphics more imo, dont get me wrong, F3 was a good game and it looks like F4 is going to be more of the same. Maybe thats the problem, it looks the same albeit some improvements. Was hoping to see more visual niceness this time round.
