I am confused about this new content from that other thread and I need some help understanding this.
That article states that this patch INTRODUCES the Paper Trail storyline that totals 5 hours of content and will be drip fed over the course of the next 6 weeks.
But then in the patch notes, says the day 1 patch delivers 5 hours of additional content.
So which is it? 5 hours of additional content now, with even more content coming in the next 6 weeks, or is it only a part of a total of 5 hours delivered now, with the remainder delivered over the course of 6 weeks?
The article makes it confusing with that whole 6 weeks delivery thing.

Huh, guess that was the day one patch then, because I just booted my game up and there's not another one.

i still think its the one we have already had lol
I asked if the day one patch was up though!
Thanks, but I'd rather avoid buying it online if I can.
UPS/ USPS has a habit of just leaving deliveries on my doorstep (even when I check the option telling them not to do that). I'd rather not have a decent sized box just sitting there for hours. I live in LA, so chances are it wouldn't be there for long.
I know Amazon would just send another one, but I'd rather avoid the hassle.

Where? You're a Dutchy right? MM had it for 55 on their website yesterday, it's since sold out though. Wonder what the price in ther stores is gonna be. Hopefully not the same awful amount you paid for it

that doesnt necessarily mean that its put up on day one. It means it is there for people who get it on launch to download on day one. It can be put up to download earlier I believe

I need to find this game today.
Yep. Need it!
Nice! I'm glad to hear I don't have to download all 24 GB to get started.
I've had the 1.01 patch since I started playing the game earlier today.
One thing I forgot to mention earlier was how responsive the controls felt immediately after I started it. Usually when it comes to third person action games it takes like half an hour to get adjusted to the controls (they always feel awkward right at the start), but with this one it took like a minute. Butter smooth controls.
Off to play some more!

Yeah I bought it at Gamemania here in Den Bosch. Sweet game..
So does nobody know the answer to my question?
Does this day one patch have 5 hours of content now with additional hours coming over 6 weeks?
Or does this day one patch only introduce a portion of the 5 hour content now, with the remaining portion of the 5 hour content coming over the course of 6 weeks?

Sounds great.
Yeah its not all day one 5 hours its the total amount of content over the weeks.

Can you connect to the paper trail missions yet? I tried last night and still nothing.
Nice try burying a troll nugget in a deceptively friendly sounding post =P.
The Halo influence did it well.
I wouldn't say it's necessarily that mixed though. 7-9 range is pretty solid.
Sounds great.

That's...disappointing. It's great that we get additional content for free, but I was hoping they delivered 5 more hours now.
Especially since it seems the game is shorter than the previous installments. Another 5 hours is meaningfully when it's a 70% upgrade to game length. I want that now.

im not sure on this, but i dont think it lets u play it until a certain point. I just played it, and it really doesnt matter where u play it for it to make sense. It is kind of its own thing.
Just called my local Gamestop to see if they were doing a midnight release and they said no
Guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning
Me too bro...
I'm so HYPED to play this!

Yeah, it seems none are doing it.
Friggin sucks! Why the hell does TF get a midnight, but not this? Surely there were enough pre-orders to justify it?

I pre-ordered in January! I'm a Prime customer so maybe it could still turn up... I'm getting doubtful though.

Lol!!
Just read a review that gave 6/10. Reason: gameplay almost the same as the others.
Thats a joke!! Again that bs?? I mean... Is inFamous gameplay considere bad at all to get such a score? Because imho, infamous gameplay was always its higher point!
I give up from having any hope to these reviwers.

No midnight launch for my GameStop.
Oh, well. I'll be there as soon as they open since I have no class tomorrow. I'm getting this game as soon as I can.

Some of the criticisms are really dumb though.
Mine just shipped and I have a free trial of Prime - it's nearly 18:00 here too so that's pretty late but I'm sure it'll arrive in time.
Amazon didn't ship my PS4 until 23:00 THE NIGHT BEFORE LAUNCH. And it arrived in time.

I asked my GameStop that same question when I picked upFFX|X-2 on Tuesday. They told me that company policy is to only do midnight releases when a store has at least 75 reservations for big titles. Apparently my GS skipped out on the TF midnight shenanigans because of this.

Yeah, it was them.
Idk... I understand that it was one and we should just disconsider it. But I feel that is quite not fair, some reviwers (specially the ones that counts at MC Score; their case actually) seems to have no idea that what they write will effect the game scene. And drop score in certain scale for such no senses (sometimes it seems fanboysism from their side) is a disrespect for the game creation. Felt the same with Knack.
Nothing against low scores, but when its well fundamented though. Its sad to see this happening.
