Why?
You’re building the hype for a class, a week away from release and we cannot give you money!
Curious if the price will suddenly be higher than expected…I dont see a reason not to allow us to buy now.

They’ve said that, “it will be purchasable once it is released, no preordering”.
I’m sure they have their reason behind it. Personally, I would preorder it, but being unable to, I don’t really care.

There won’t be any pre-orders for the Arbites DLC.
Don’t be fooled by troll title

I would say that FS opted out of pre-orders to deal less with refunds or QQ forum threads about “How I pre-ordered” but it sucks and I want my money back threads.

They literally said, SINCE THEY SHOWED IT IN THE SKULLS EVENT, that it will be on the 23rd
Why are you getting annoyed it’s releasing on the 23rd?

Because people need to cry over something I guess, it’s human nature.

The only reason is if we crash the purchase server and are unable to play as soon as possible

Skulls release had a discounted game, they could have bundled the DLC at a discount for those, like us, who are all-in or new.
Instead they hide the price and ask for a wishlist.

Maybe you did miss it because you are new. Price was not hidden was announced, wish list page could use a touch up tho

It was, link above
No explanation has been given so I can only MIND READ as… in case of possible delay, discouraging bad pre-order business practices or just such a short period since announcement not worth the effort.
…could be 4D chess hype move … but really? meh maybe

Accordingly to Google, the refund policy applies to DLCs too. So they can just buy it, test it for 2 hours, then ask for a refund. I don’t see how the removal of preordering would change this.

I finally understand how preorders keep crappy devs afloat

Cause I’m sad watching all the content creators play it while I can’t

because in my head there is sawdust yes yes yes - there are no other explanations why they can’t start selling a class that almost everyone will buy, the main thing is that they don’t forget to put it up for sale on the 23rd, otherwise I’ll die laughing

It’s the 23rd, and it’s still not available on xbox.
Don’t worry it’s also not available on pc or ps, Fatshark had the brilliant idea to release the update hours before unlocking the dlc in the store
Reading this thread, I’m happy that I’ll skip the madness entirely today and meet some friends IRL instead.

Don’t worry, there is/will be more crying on the forums, so I am sure you will never miss out.
