Suggestion for Games on Demand and preordering: (Moderators/Admins please direct this to ...

First off, I have no idea if the people at Xbox have given this any thought or even publicly announced anything relating to preordering digital games.

I just want to say that I would absolutely love to have an option to preorder games. I used to be skeptical about buying games off of the console out of fear of something going wrong, like having to be online to play them or some sort of billing error that
locked me out of the game after I bought it. Anyway, I swallowed my brave pill and bought two games on the Xbox One store. I play the crap out of Battlefield 4 and NBA 2k14. I now feel comfortable buying games directly through Xbox after experiencing ZERO
problems with my previous purchases. Now, I would love the ability to preorder games directly from my Xbox One, especially games I know I'm going to buy one way or another. It makes life that much more easy having a game bought already and just having to download
it on release...

My only concern really is how they would handle preorder exclusives. I.e. For NHL 15 Gamestop is having a bonus item just for preordering at no additional cost, I'm sure other stores have the same thing, Gamestop just happens to be the place I normally do
business with. I honestly don't care for the bonuses as much, but if I'm getting the game for the same price, why not get a little bonus too.

Summary: Preordering games on Xbox Live VIA games on demand is a great idea and I can personally guarantee my business with you guys if you implement a system for it!

Preorder of Tom Clancy Ghost Recon Wildlands Ultimate Edition

There were no offers to receive credits just for preordering that game. It would have counted as a punch towards your games on demand punchcard.

There were no offers to receive credits just for preordering that game. It would have counted towards your Games on Demand punchcard and you would need 2 other eligible purchases to complete the offer and receive the credits.

Currently the only offer for preorders is the games on demand punchard. Neither of those games are eligible for that offer and preorders do not count towards VIP.

Smwutches

In order to qualify for the games on demand punchcard, the games had to be preordered on or after October 1. Since they were preordered before the offer began, they were not eligible.

Smwutches

For the Games on Demand Punchcard offer, you had to preorder 3 games in order to receive the credits. If NBA2k18 is the only game you preordered, you did not complete the offer.

Smwutches

If you preordered it before October 1, it would not be eligible for the games on demand punchcard.
