Have no fear....those of us who only buy digital will definitely be playing on 3/24 at midnight.

I'll be playing at 9 pm on the 23rd...whether it's the DD version or if I can finagle a way to pick up the Captain edition on the 23rd...

I spoke with an employee at Game Stop a couple of days ago and asked if I pre-ordered the Captain edition through them, could I pick it up on the 23rd? He said no. I had to wait until the 24th to pick it up. And, they don't open until noon.
Is there more than one GameStop in your area? How about a Best Buy? Wal*Mart?

The closest GameStop is about 40 minutes away. All the other large stores are about an hour away. One of the hazards/blessings of living in the mountains...I haven't stopped trying yet...I have until the 23rd

This why if you want Early Access you buy the digital version. I remember a few years back there were a ton of complaints that some of the physical copies weren't received until AFTER the actual release date.

SDS needs to put the DD cover art on the pre ordered version. It has Jazzy Jeff on it.

SOP. It's the same game under the hood.

The DD looks better and I paid for it. So there.

For those who purchased one of the early Access versions of the game - I know it says March 24th access at Midnight est. How will people be able to play early if they don't receive their captains edition on that Thursday, the 23rd? I'm assuming for the central time zone folks they will have access at 11:00pm on the 23rd...
I totally agree, I am in the same boat that you are. We are getting screwed out of a day of early access because we are waiting on our order to arrive. Therefore, we are unable to participate in the official launch.

You made a choice. You bought from another store because of price/amenities/whatever instead of buying the digital version that's ready to go at midnight.
Hope the deal was worth it!

I've never bought the early access, is it worth it for a collection standpoint? Aren't the market prices pretty inflated for a while?

They are but if you pull anything decent from the free packs, you can add more to your bank of stubs.

I have been digital since 2017 for this reason

Yup. 2016 for me.
No lines, no chance of the game being sold out and a 100% guarantee that you're playing at launch.
