MurdocisGod1990 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 WTF. I preorded my copy of GTA V for PS4 on September 12th and I just got an email sent to me saying its been backordered because they are out of stock and will send me one as soon as they get more...Anyone else get an email? How did they not anticipate the massive amounts of pre orders they would get!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Lfc Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Digital ftw. But seriously, this is why digital is the better option if you have the connection & you really want to play asap.

gonetoplaythegame Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Jokes aside they must have made some huge pre order sales already. Surely with a week to go they can get some stock in and a game sent off to you on time. It might just update in a day or so and say its ready to be shipped.

This is what i'm thinking, hope its true, even if they don't I have my PS3 copy I can always play, I would be freaking the f*ck out if I got this email last september. lol The Warehouse shipped that to me on day one perfectly...

ILS_Supernova Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Sounds like a error to me, automated email. Kinda sounds like they are waiting for stock and the system has generated a generic email to let u know its not shipping yet. Hopefully it will update end of this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it may be an error on Rockstar Warehouse's part. I ordered a second copy of GTA V on PS3 on September 15, 2013 from their site and the shipment was fulfilled with no problem; considering GTA V this time will only sell a fraction of last year's version I'm not buying this bs stock backorder.

MurdocisGod1990 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Thanks for making me feel better guys, I tottaly believe this will be updated this week. No way the 2nd version of a year old game could be sold out like this....then again, it is GTA V lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MurdocisGod1990 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 I bet you pre-ordered it from the same guy who promised to turn my £50 into £500 000. It was the Warehouse. They posted the pre-order on the newswire, I clicked the link, ordered it. Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sttc Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) same here, I preordered on Sep 20th, do you know if we can cancel I might go for digital Edited November 10, 2014 by sttc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blues3531 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Cancel your preorder and go into any retailer the day of and buy it. Seriously I never got why people make a big deal out of pre-ordering. I've never once in my life of buying big release games on day 1 have had any trouble walking into a bestbuy, walmart, target etc and just picking one up off the shelf. Even the biggest games ever dont sell out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurdocisGod1990 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 same here, I preordered on Sep 20th, do you know if we can cancel I might go for digital Maybe we can get more than the in-game money for them f*cking up our pre-order.

Raynos Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Lol this is bizzare, maybe they weren't expecting to sell many so they didn't bother creating many physical versions of the game, besides, Why would it ship so early, sounds like a mistake.

MurdocisGod1990 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 I personally love my physical game copies still. I like them like I like my music, CD's and Vinyl. I like to "hold" it ya know? I know its gay, but my stuff makes me happy. SaturdayNight, DEERxBanshee, Cutter De Blanc and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
