Punishing Digital Downloaders

So I've wasted 3 hours today trying to get an answer. Come on Bungie, please don't point fingers as Microsoft and Activision both did. Last I checked the USA had multiple time zones, I happen to be in Central time (poor folks on the east coast). The digital download for Destiny states that It wont be playable (when launched it sends you to the MS store) until midnight Pacific time. So why do I have to wait an additional two hours before my digital purchase is playable. Seems like a SNAFU to me, very upset at all parties involved, MS, Activision, and Bungie. Oh and why does China (who just got access to Xbox One) get to play a day before the USA does!!! Come on Bungie, get your act together, you are hurting your core audience and causing resentment!

  • I am sorry to say it, but you could have used those three hours to get rested up and ready to play at 2AM. I got mixed messages from them saying "as soon as the servers are turned on" and then "when it goes live on PSN at midnight PST", but I console myself that the digital download beats smelling nerd sweat in line at the local Best Game Buy Stop at midnight. That and I've already missed my fix for what ... 42 days?
