Yet Another Question About "Day One" Games.

aRagingCanadian · Aug 30, 2015

So if I where to preorder Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain tomorrow, will I have to have my XBOX on at 12:01am (or whatever time it's available) for it to download? Or will it start once I turn on my XBOX on Tuesday.

Note: I have my XBOX set to standby mode (or whatever it's called where I am able to turn on the XBOX via voice commands)... if that even makes a difference with preorders.

:)

Please use the search function to find your answer

Almost every question you could ask has already been posted an answered. Just search please before posting another "Will all games be available digitally on day one?" Or "will my turtle beach headset work?" I see so many of the same posts all day and it
just starting to clutter up the forum.

A lot of my content will install by itself from season passes so I would assume it would be the same digital pre-orders, actually I was under the impression it preloaded on your system so when you start it up there isn't any wait time.

It even says at the following link that you should be able to play it at 12:01am in your region:

these questions are usually best asked on the official forum of whoever the developer of the game in question is. Its likely to be yet another launch day bug.

My brother bought the Nyco battery charger and docking kit - I hate it. I prefer the micro-USB cable from the play and charge kit and the Nyco batteries aren't compatible with the cable.

I bought the charge dock made by nyco. I always put it in the cradle when I'm done for the night so its always fully charged. The dock has seperate charge meters for two controllers.
