    Not sure why people see this as a bad thing. This way, no one has to worry about whether their preorders will be shipped on time. You can just install at your leisure on the 18th or 19th, and be ready to play on the 20th.

    Xbox 360 release is listed as April 18th. Its because it is being shipped on the 18th. This way it doesnt matter who gets it first cause by the 20th it should be in the stores, and most of the people who reserved it should have it and have installed it already.

    Something to think about however.........

    Since April 20th in Japan equals NA April 19th at 8am PST will NA players actually get to play on the 19th at 8am pst or will we be forced to wait until our actual April 20th which almost equals Japan's April 21st?

    I got a question though, is this the 20th based on JP time or the 20th based on NA time? If its based on JP time it would still be the 19th NA time, no? /timezonenub

    Don't know how asking the same question an hour later helps, but hey, I'm new.

    Well it gives you plenty of time to explore all the dats that come on the CD's.

    So true, at least the forums will be a nice read for few days before we can play the expansion. ^^

    The Japanese POL sit lists the 20th as well. so it could be 12:00am PST / 16:00am JST on the 20th.

    Most likely, it will be whenever they announce the down time on the 19th/20th

    Fixed. Unfortunately.

    So, they're waiting 2 days after its release to activate the content? lmao @ SE. Something seriously off about their business practices. XD

    IMO this is how all updates and expansions should be done.

    It shouldn't be about who can mob their EB Games shop the fastest and install their game first. There should be a 2-3 day period in which players can buy the game at leisure, and then all content is activated at the same time.

    It also prevents the whole "UPDATE IS UP lets all mob the server so nobody can play" situation that happens with the monthly updates.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the CD/DVD won't include .DAT files like new armor, quests and titles... I'm pretty sure those will come via version update... Putting them on the software only would cause people without ToAU to be unable to /check others who were wearing ToAU armor...
