I did not.
So Smyths replied.
They've got a way to fix the problem (ish). Basically, they've reserved stock for everyone whose order was cancelled. And that stock is being held until Sunday at 5pm. But the order (and credit checks, etc.) needs to be done again, following the instructions in the email.
They're also sending everyone affected a £20 voucher as an apology, which is a nice touch.

I had the email walkthrough to re-order which went through fine, however i hadn't heard anything about the £20 voucher? Is that due in a separate email?
It's at the bottom of the email, in green text.

Exactly this, devs will be able to code specifically catering for the speeds with the velocity architecture and custom memory api's....off the shelf comparisons are pointless

Never been confirmed yet as far as I'm aware, all they've ever said is "A later date" for console.
Personally I'd like to see how its runs/looks on Console as I'm planning a PC gaming build really just for FS2020
Nothing on mine.
same, maybe i need to complain
The thing is that they also have to code for Xbox versions without ssd and even pc’s that do not have SSD’s. I think other than increased speed in general actually writing specifically for the Series X/S “Velocity Architecture” might be an area that is somewhat lacking compared to Sony’s PS5 with only 1 version. They have to support so many different drive speeds and have a decent running game on all of them.
Depends on size of game really. I just set it to copy whilst I’m doing something else. Never found the speed to be an issue.

I too would love another go at these.
Playing such titles will tide me over until the new ones come out
One thing I’ve noticed about these older titles, Oblivion, Mass Effect, there is no complete edition or bundle to buy digitally. So if you choose to play via Game Pass or EA Play you still have to pay silly amounts for all the DLC. Way overpriced for such old games.
Yes I noticed similar when I had a One X briefly and I wanted the ME2 DLC, would have cost me more than the game did (I purchased the 360 disc for £4.)
Legacy DLC prices are nonsense. Where the DLC is important, it pretty much puts me off bothering with the base game.
I get it. Selling the DLC at high prices allows old used games to generate ongoing revenue. But please just offer a complete edition for those of us buying digital.

I was shot down for this earlier, but the fact people have bought these on credit with Klarna who have now confirmed it's a hard credit search just defies common sense. Societies "must have" culture needs to change, as that is utter madness...
You are assuming everyone who got it via that method couldn't afford it outright which is wrong. 0% apr means they aren't paying extra and a hard credit search has a negligible affect on your credit score if any. That said, I do agree that it's a dangerous habit to get into if you have no self control.
