Oh shit, right on. Thanks.

Still waiting on delivery of the game, and Amazon to e-mail the DLC code. Hopefully not much longer.

edit: Just got an e-mail from Amazon and was all excited, but all it was was them letting me know Uncharted 4 is coming out a couple weeks earlier than expected.

 

[davedc226]

Check your email. Best Buy sends you a code that contains all of the DLC.

Yep, just checked my email and see the code from Best Buy, Hope everyone receives their copies on time!

Time for me to go Metal Gear...

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

Interesting. I guess the NA steelbooks only have room for 1 disc.

 

[ScaryShark]

Anyone that got the CE for PS4 in the US get an emailed code yet?

 

[NealMcCauley]

Mine arrived an hour ago! I was able to get someone to cover for me so I could get the update started and redeem the email code. Can't wait til I get back tonight.

 

[KevinG]

Haven't received the code from Amazon.com yet.

 

[fritzo]

Haven't received the code from Amazon.com yet.

was your CE delivered to you already?

 

[Vincent4756]

So my backordered CE isn't gonna show up till the 23rd of September. Gotta say its been a freaking blast.

 

[ViolentP]

I ordered a CE from Walmart. Do the CE's include an emailed code as well, or is it all expected to be in box?

 

[Canucked]

Well Amazon charged my credit card for it but no update on the order itself. They have the ship date listed as the 4th so their "two day" shipping is for next week...jerks

Holy shit what.
Where did you pre order from so I know to avoid them

Best Buy. Best part is I'm a Premier rewards member. I'm so livid right now.

 

[TwoDurans]

Amazon has fucked this up severely. I have no idea if my CE is going to show up today, and the guide was marked shipped this morning when it was supposed to be delivered today.

You had one job, Amazon. If I walked into a Gamestop or Best Buy I could have had both last night at 9pm.

 

[xKilltheMx]

Best Buy. Best part is I'm a Premier rewards member. I'm so livid right now.

wait. What. When did you order? I ordered in July when it went up the second time, did you call CS and change your shipping speed or anything?

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

was your CE delivered to you already?

Not the guy you quoted, but mine was delivered about an hour ago and still no email codes.

 

[Vincent4756]

wait. What. When did you order? I ordered in July when it went up the second time, did you call CS and change your shipping speed or anything?

I ordered in March.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Best Buy. Best part is I'm a Premier rewards member. I'm so livid right now.

When did you order? Did Best Buy say what happened? Did they compensate you? The least they should be doing is throwing a gift card your way for screwing up.

 

[Curler]

Gamestop emailed me a code but not sure if it's the Day 1 code or CE code.

 

[Einhandr]

For anyone having trouble getting their code from Core...

Hit the button I highlighted in blue after logging in. It doesn't show up in your vault like you'd think it would. You have to hit that button first and follow the next few pages to get your PSN code.

 

[Vincent4756]

They won't compensate me cause its technically my fault. The order started to process on thursday, and when I looked at the order it said it wouldn't arrive until the 3rd. So I choose Express as the shipping speed.

And by doing that I guess the system took me from being "first" to the very end. So essentially the unit that was under expedited shipping no longer exisits and I have to wait for their system to get a new unit in to ship it out to me.

 

[ShinobiMuramasa]

Has anyone in the US that ordered the CE from Amazon get the email with the DLC codes yet?

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Nope.

 

[javie3d]

just got my BB code.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Amazon (US) just sent my CE it should be here tomorrow. Sucks they couldn't keep my guaranteed date for today.

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

Has anyone in the US that ordered the CE from Amazon get the email with the DLC codes yet?

Trying to talk to Customer Service but people keep ending the conversation. Jesus.

 

[Liquid-Swords]

I ordered a PS4 CE and regular day one edition from Bestbuy. I get a general code in my email and I don't know which game it is meant for. Is it for the vanilla or CE edition? They could of been a little more specific when composing the email... Really a lazy mistake by Konami.

Day One Edition should have a code inside, I think. Emailed code should be for CE.

Yikes, sorry but you probably won't get it because I doubt they'll be getting restocks. I've been telling people in this thread to not screw with their order because of being impatient. You just end up screwing yourself. Looks like you learned that the hard way. This isn't exclusive to Best Buy either. It happens at Amazon too and wouldn't surprise me if it happens elsewhere.

Oh fuck that. There will be hell to pay. Sorry but if that's how it works these companies need to get some new understanding on how this shit won't fly.

Keep up the good fight. Let us know how it turns out.

 

[motherxwolf]

mine was charged to my card but it hasn't been shipped yet, says it will be here Monday the seventh. It better arrive today

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Whew, just got my DLC code from Gamestop, it's all good....well still waiting for my CE to arrive tomorrow though.

My one day off is today!

I'm seriously thinking of just going to Best Buy buying a Day One edition today at this point and leave me CE alone in my MGS collection.

When you put in the 12 digit code did you include the dashes or not? Mine didn't work.

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

Got a code from best buy via email but still waiting on my copy in the mail.

 

[Cade]

Anyone got their CE codes from Amazon.com yet? I'm waitin'.


and i'm waitin' on ups for the love of god i need this game in me now

 

[LiK]

nothing here.

 

[bananafactory]

I'm confused with this Konami Core thing

I was sure I registered my copy of GZ back when it launched but apparently I don't have am account. OK so I created a new Core account but now it's asking for a ground zeroes code.

I preordered on PSN, where do I get my code?

 

[Liquid-Swords]

Day One Edition should have a code inside, I think. Emailed code should be for CE.

Now I just need to figure out why I ordered both versions of the game... Seemed like a good idea at the time. Maybe I was going to keep the CE sealed, but it doesn't look all that rare and I'm not even sure if it's worth the extra $40.

 

[Einhandr]

When you put in the 12 digit code did you include the dashes or not? Mine didn't work.

No dashes. I just copy/paste on the web-store and it removed the dashes when I pasted. I'm in NA. Codes may not work until the store updates for other regions.

 

[SlaughterX]

Does the CE come with a regular version on the game with the case and barcode? If so I might just buy a vanilla copy then take it back because my ce won't be here until sometime next week...

 

[//ARCANUM]

My fiancé just sent me this photo (I'm at work) OMGEEEEEEEEE!! Only 4 more hours!

Don't do this! I confirmed a while back (from an unboxing video) that the copy inside the CE has a NOT FOR RESALE box in place of a UPC.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Oh fuck that. There will be hell to pay. Sorry but if that's how it works these companies need to get some new understanding on how this shit won't fly.

Well I hope you can get something out of it but I also hope you learned a valuable lesson about being patient. Too many people in this thread were freaking out of nothing and way too early too. I hope everyone knows, if you're at all concerned about getting something that has limited availability, don't touch your order. Leave it alone. Everyone who just let it be, got it just fine so far. You have to understand that these computer systems are automated and they're unlikely to change the system for an edge case. Again, I hope they'll do something for you, but I also hope you learned a lesson here for the future. Remember, this applies to everywhere, not just Best Buy.

 

[xKilltheMx]

My fiancé just sent me this photo (I'm at work) OMGEEEEEEEEE!! Only 4 more hours!

So jelly. It's getting mighty close to 3 and no delivery yet.
I get off at 4:30 and it better be there dammit

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

Keep up the good fight. Let us know how it turns out.

Alright, so after about 15 minutes of waiting, the rep told me this.

Upon checking the Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - PlayStation 4 Collector's Edition has been shipped without the codes for the bonus DLC content. Amazon.com will email the codes to all customers who ordered this product with 48 hours of when your product ships. Please wait until September 2.

 

[KevinG]

was your CE delivered to you already?

Yup.

This man speaks the truth. I still have my credit card's billing address as my old address that I haven't lived in for months because of overlapping pre-orders of things lol. I don't dare change the payment info or suffer the wrath of losing my place in line.

 

[Karamsoul]

Can confirm about US PS4 collector's edition - they don't come with any codes. Your retailer should be sending 1 code that includes everything, to you soon. US Xbox One CE's do come with all codes.

 

[onepiecefan]

No dashes. I just copy/paste on the web-store and it removed the dashes when I pasted. I'm in NA. Codes may not work until the store updates for other regions.

Thanks, yh I hope so lol.

 

[JayBabay]

My CE just got delivered, had it delivered to work since someone is always here to accept it. The codes were e-mailed to me from Best Buy a couple hours ago.
