Midnight Release Question - Pacific Time vs. Eastern Time...Digital vs. Hard Copy

1) If I live in central time and if I get the hard copy at midnight release will I be able to play at midnight central time or will I have to wait until 2am to play? 2) If I live in central time and if I get the digital copy (preloaded) will I be able to play at midnight central time or will I have to wait until 2am to play? 3) Why does gamestops website say 9am central standard time on 9/9 to be able to play destiny's digital download copy? 4) If I do pick the game up at midnight or have it downloaded at midnight central time will I only be able to play campaign then and not PvP? Sorry if this is confusing but my god I am used to picking up a game at midnight and playing right away so this is not consistent with other midnight (central time) releases.

  • This is something that I am also concerned about! I have attended many midnight releases to come right home and start playing, so why would Destiny be different? I live on the east coast and I was considering a digital copy instead of going to get the game at midnight, but all the talk of not playing the digital copy until 3am EST makes no sense to me. If I purchase a digital copy and live on the east coast then I should have access to the game, considering I can drive 10 mins down the road and buy a physical game and play. I hope that we get some more clarification on what the deal is.
