Can anyone confirm if you can pre-load the game from Xbox One right now?
Getting some conflicting information on Twitter and no official response yet.
You can purchase and download now. There will be an additional day one 15gig patch.
The initial download takes some time.
Thanks.
Was wondering if anyone was going to answer the question with fact rather than guess work.

Thanks for the info, not exactly a big worry as it'll download fast enough but i must admit it would be handy to get it downloaded and out of the way til start up time :-)
What if you pre-ordered at Gamestop, can you download it on XBox One, and then pop in the disc when you get it, or must it all come from the disc?
Also will the disc need to fetch this 15g patch? (shoot, I need to make room, stupid small hd on xb1)

That's only for the Disk version, it's unknown if the digital version will have the same patch (or any patch) yet.
Since the current download is the same size as the "complete full game" beta was (54.5 gb), I'm pretty sure we'll only get a minor patch with digital on launch day to add the text radial chat stuff and other minor things (let's say 1GB total, bringing the client to 55.5 GB). The 15GB patch for disk users is likely the obvious 5.5GB of new stuff that couldn't fit on the disk, but also 10 GB of replacement patch data due to outdated code from having to ship it out over a month ago probably. That brings it up to the same 55.5 GB as digital downloaders.

I already posted this in post #9. 3 days ago.
Where did you get 4am est for a start time? It's 12:01am est, 4am utc

That's good logic. I hope you're right, that would be aweoome.
You could at least edit your EST post to say UTC, now that you see the typo.
Also, it's downloading for me, uberkull, and many others. You can start it too. 43% for me right now, started downloading the hour it was available. Considering how slow my internet is, I'm surprised it's above 15% honestly.

Post 9 in this thread. I already downloaded it 3 days ago. I even put a picture in the post.
What's going on here? Lol....man, Smirf is right on one thing. People don't read posts.
I did. I was just repeating what you said, since I thought last I knew that NewBlackSmurf had you on Ignore and might not see your post. I thought that's why he didn't see it in the first place.
