So basically the ideal plan is to get logged in to the playstation direct site, then join the queue, then refresh your browser at 10EST?

Damn I can't believe I'm doing shit like this just to give a corporation my money. What an honor.

I do want that Dualsense though.
 
Just saw the Direct store doesn't take American Express, PayPal or allow Klarna for preorders. LAME!

Klarna comes up at checkout. At least at present. Whether it works or not for pre-orders I haven't been able to confirm yet.

Might not, just because it's only a pre-auth hold that drops off.
 
I joined at 10am in the UK, whilst others had been queueing for an hour or two before that. I finally got to buy at 11:30 am. So I'd advise joining the queue earlier than 10am, but just know that it took me 90+mins at around 11:30am before I got to buy.
Damn, were you actually able to buy anything that late?

I'm not sure I would even hit refresh much. Should do it on its own or put you back into queue.

There should be no need to refresh anything, it's automated.
 
I remember when the iPad got a minor upgrade and people trash talk how greedy Apple was, then the same people bought as soon as it was released
 
Somebody lied...
The demand is probably still low. You will always have scalpers and idiots rushing to buy these things on day 1. Look at all the people willing to waste their money in here. Oooh a single video trailer for one game with no gameplay.... and the people saying "sony is saved, ps5 pro bought.."... . ridiculous. The fact that corporate can buy some people off is crazy, all the sudden that $700+ doesn't seem bad to them.

Thing is those fools will soon be parted with their money, and that's about it. It will have a small bit of bump in the beginning and then fizzle out. The sales to this are going to pale drastically in comparison to base ps5. Demand isn't there, this is just normal scalper buyup that we see on all products today, unfortunately.

Yeah, I had some issues getting through checkout, but got a standard Pro OK. Which is all I was after. The Limited edition likely cause a lot of the initial queue delays and was sold out way before I got to buy.
 
Line is paused is what happened in the uk. Around 0800. Then at ten when things kicked off

You sit there, the time goes up and down and really grinds you but there is no heed to refresh. Just hold

Then you get in

But it's sounding as bizarre and stressful as this morning over here

Good luck us folks
 
Wishing you all well with it. Just remember once you're in, if you get any checkout issues, like I did (when trying to click confirm order, it gave an error has occurred message). Taking that link and pasting it into another browser fixed it for me. Good luck.
