I got one. Celebrate for me? Still didn't get the email with stats, though. MS doesn't care I exist.

I got that stat email though, pretty useless for the most part.

Stat email means you might win something cool, though. I will win nothing for sure.

 

[Final Verdict]

does anyone know if there is a way to replay the story campaign mission without starting over?

 

[Miles Quaritch]

check PM Miles

You wonderful, wonderful person.

Thank you so much.

*EDIT*

Redeemed successfully. Thank you so much mate, I'm definitely going to try and repay this act of awesomeness.

Oh really? Well in that case, it's not at all useless. Give me free stuff, MS. I've been your biggest fan since forever and have never said a bad thing against you or your executives.

I think you have to select missions individually from the mission screen. Not 100 per cent sure though.

Mashable with the first discussion on the player voting beginning next week and the Weapons Pack DLC hitting next week as well.

Also many bug fixes coming in a patch to be released with or just ahead of all of this too. We'll have patch notes up once that hits.

[SkinnerSw33t]

My stats email just came, so it looks like they're still working on them.

And the Sunset Overdrive soundtrack is AMAZING. Some of you people are crazy.

My god those look awesome. Congrats to everyone who worked on this game it is so fucking good. As a long time insomniac fan, I think this is my favorite game from you guys. I hope that people vote for Buck National in the first poll. I find Floyd kind of annoying.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Weapons look fantastic, can't wait to give the plague bomb a go. Using it in a horde with the nuke amp will be amazing.

So, about this outfit...

Is this coming as DLC or can it be unlocked in game?

I think that is Ninja Bomber, isn't it? Its one of the outfits that comes with the season pass.

 

[RoKKeR]

Just got a 300mb or so patch. Notes anywhere?

Huh, looks like I need to visit the clothes merchant and check. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[RBK]

Anyone know the specific items in the Vanity pack?

Wondering this as well.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Foul Baller Outfit
Grey Splatter Helmet
Pretty fly fly helmet
String Theory helmet
Uncivil War helmet
Granny's Revenge outfit

Found this list. Haven't checked with the merchant to see if it's legit though. Currently installing GTA5 on PS4, will check later on tonight/tomorrow and confirm.

Everyone vote for Floyd or I'll ban you.

Everyone vote for Floyd or I'll ban you.

I totally skipped this part of the article,

The first fan voting session will take place some time in the following week — Microsoft is still locking down the date — and will let fans choose between two characters: Buck National and Floyd. Whichever character wins the fan vote will be the subject of the first of two story-based downloadable content packs for the game, and players will unlock their costume.

Whoa. That's a fantastic way to approach DLC. Well done, Insomniac.

And yes, vote for Floyd. I like Buck, but Floyd is definitely the better character with a more interesting background.

 

[KDash31987]

Found this list.

After activating the code I got, these were added to my download queue:

-Rock n' Hop Headphones
-Grey Splatter Helmet
-Foul Baller Outfit
-UnCivil War Helmet
-String Theory Helmet
-Pretty Fly Fly Helmet

The message said that there were 7 items, so I guess that the last one might be the Granny's Revenge pack, which I already had from when they were giving them away last month.

 

[RBK]

Vanity indeed.

Was hoping for at least one cool weapon.

 

[Jailer of Hope]

Floyd over Buck, easily.

Yep. It is.

Floyd is the Dave Chappelle sounding one right?

 

[StoOgE]

Well,

All the pre-order bonus weapons were just standard weapons with a modified property that seems to amount to an amp already added.

Spoiler

I probably won't be allowed to vote

 

[RBK]

Just had the Day 1 codes.

Nothin' But the Hits is better than High Fidelity...both weapons end up useless the further you progress through the game.

http://www.insomniacgames.com/community/showthread.php?55355-Retailer-Specific-Pre-Order-Bonuses

None of the pre-order bonus weapons are weapons I ultimately wound up using that much of.

The Outfits are the real loss. The daft punk one and wannabe OD especially.

downtown chaos was 1709, I saved us right at the last second as one of the vats was getting overrun.

I wish we could do vat defence against Scabs and fizzco bots.

Seriously, Floyd. Who gives a fuck about Buck?

No new thread for it being free tomorrow? Or just not on front page?

I think they just made Floyd DLC and are having a "vote" knowing full well the outcome.

Come clean insomniac.

Wouldn't surprise me. How could they think anyone would be interested in Buck National DLC?

I'd love some DLC where we play as Bryllcream before the events that lead to his arc in Sunset.

I'd also quite like to play as Wendy.

HA, they could easily do 2 season passes XD or even 3 :O

 

[Miles Quaritch]

HA, they could easily do 2 season passes XD

And I'd totally buy it too.

I really hope they have more than 2 story DLC planned. Two is great, especially if they are meaty and of course the have other projects to focus on, but I'd love a couple more story DLC focusing on other characters.

Hell, I would not be against a DLC where we see everything play out from Fizzie's perspective.

4 season passes confirmed

 

[StoOgE]

I wonder how the new locations will work with the DLC.

Guess we'll find out soon. Not expecting giant swathes of land, so I'm curious how they'll handle it.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

There are very few games I'd buy a lot of DLC for. This is one such game. It's entirely up to Insomniac how much money they want from me...

Maybe we'll finally head into the mountains we can see off in the distance? I'm personally hoping we get a trippy sequence where Floyd

has to fight off killer buildings.

 

[jstevenson]

Actually the winner gets their quest in the second story DLC. We are pretty far along on the first.

 

[tuna_love]

Is there some sort of trick to getting the vanity items?

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Question. Does the story DLC take place after the ending of the first (being positive here about getting a second) game?

ohhh, can you give any hints as to what that entails or if its likely to drop this year?
