Any reason why the physical edition pre-orders are treated differently?
What about treating all customers the same way, instead of some being Tier 1 costumers and others being the piss over ones?
Physical disc edition purchasers can get things that digital version purchasers can’t. Just make the decision that’s best for you based on all the available information.
As others have mentioned, physical disc purchasers can get the disc, limited edition steelbook case and the scale Porsche model. Digital purchasers can not get any of those. (I also believe that some of the retailer-specific pre-order cars are limited to physical versions.)
This is why many people have not yet pre-ordered. We don’t yet have all the information on what is included with all the different pre-order options.
I guess it’s up to you. Do you want the steelbook and scale model car or the bonus DLC and play-anywhere? There will still be a day one and VIP car pack as well. You also get tier reward and past VIP bonuses.
*The DLC is not exclusive. You will be able to buy it in the store.
It is exclusive to FM7 pre-orders, or at least the article makes it seem that way. It says the FH3 pack will be available separately, but not the FM7 one.
WOW! That pack looks AMAZING!!! I love the '55 Chevy gasser! I can’t wait to start painting it! I’m going to start on some vintage decals tonight. The Nova looks like a lot of fun too! Seems like a great pack. I wasn’t too excited over the Fate of the Furious pack rumors (or any of the movies for that matter). I cannot wait to have Milner’s deuce AND Falfa’s Chevy from American Graffiti in my garage!!!
I don’t even know how the pre-order bonuses are going to work. For example, I pre-ordered the digital ultimate edition through Amazon. Would I still be eligible to get this pack even though I did not pre-order through the Microsoft store? After all this, I still consider this pack and these cars as what they are, a bonus. If on the off-chance that I do not get them, I won’t be raising my torch and pitchfork to go after T10.
No, you just probably won’t get the code until the game is released. Which is more than likely what would happen with physical pre-orders as well, if they offered it to physical edition purchasers…
Mine is indeed a Digital Purchase from the Microsoft Store…
On the Console at the moment if I manage game for FM7 I have…
Forza Motorsport 7 - 108.1 MB
Forza Motorsport 7 Day One Car Pack 10 MB
Forza Motorsport 7 Preorder Bonus 10 MB
Forza Motorsport 7 VIP 10 MB
On the PC Windows Store
Only the first 3 items are shown as being installed…
The VIP pack tries to get downloaded at regular intervals but fails every time causing notifications to be sent…
I’m hoping that we get early access to the “download” before the “play” early access as it will be going on both platforms…
