Will it be midnight or an unspecified time?

Presumably when the rest of the Store updates, so mid-afternoon I think.

Vyrien 07-14-2014 05:48 AM

I'm personally fine with this, seeing as I've been intending to get PS+ for a while anyway. I can understand why people are miffed about it though.

STM 07-14-2014 06:02 AM

I love how the Alf content isn't full on DLC by the by, but rather it encourages people to buy the game sooner rather than later, it's a really good way to get people to buy NnT asap without people feeling like they're only getting 80% of the game.

JennyGenesis 07-14-2014 07:27 AM

Yeah that is good, look at Fallout 3, you had to the buy the DLC to find out what happened after the explosion at the end of the game.

Holy Sock 07-14-2014 07:34 AM

Well, to be fair, that Fallout 3 DLC was made primarily because many players were pissed off that the game ended and didn't allow you to explore after.

Connell 07-14-2014 07:43 AM

If I can wait and give JAW 7 euros for Alf's Escape I will. I'd rather give JAW money toward it than give Sony 7 euros for some subscription I don't want. It would be very nice to have it confirmed I can do this though.

Or can I just send some money in an envelope or something for a code. I feel a bit stupid, but I'm still quite confused as to what the deal is with purchasing Alf's Escape.

I'm not saying that the original game and ending is good. But as I look at Broken Steel's ending, I'd pretty much prefer that the DLC never existed

It seems that if you have a PS account you can just download the game, Sony probably assumes most people who have a PS4 have live, or whatever their equivalent is. I don't want to spread misinformation but that's what I have gleaned from what's being said.

Sekto Springs 07-14-2014 08:33 AM

I don't have any money right now.
Somebody buy it for me so I don't hate Oddworld forever.

Michael 07-14-2014 09:17 AM

Trying to make sense of this haha, here goes:

So I can pre-order for PS4 directly from the SEN UK website, without owning a PS4 at the moment, secure the bonuses and simply wait for the PS3 version to be released? I'll get the game on both platforms, with the DLC for each, to download and play on PS3 release day, and PS4 when I eventually get one?

If this is the case, awesome! Can't seem to find anything about New n Tasty on the UK SEN website besides a couple trailers however :fuzconf:

And a price drop too! A lot of respect for JAW/OWI for keeping the exchange rate in mind with pricing!

Holy Sock 07-14-2014 09:25 AM

No, you cannot pre-order if you're outside the US or Canada. But you can buy the game and the bonuses from SEN UK website or the PSN network when the game is released on 23 July and play them on your PS3 when that version is released.

JennyGenesis 07-14-2014 09:28 AM

Cut a long story short, work has messed up my holidays, and instead of giving me a day off the day after nnt comes out, they have given me the day off on the day it comes out, which means, instead of working in the day and coming home in the evening to play it, I will be checking the god damn playstation store every 5 minutes, and even when it is finally on the store, I gota wait for the thing to download and install. Fuck my life. I could easily sort this out with work, but I just really cannot be bothered sorting it all out just for a game.

Together you are correct except for the following:

1. Despite what was on the official site, you can also pre-order in all other SCEA territories: Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile and Columbia.

2. You need to have PlayStation Plus subscription when you buy New 'n' Tasty, and it has to be within two weeks of the PlayStation 4 release date.

3. Alf's Escape may or may not be released when the PlayStation 3 version of New 'n' Tasty come out, but regardless you'll still be able to download it for free at the earliest opportunity.

Other than not knowing how much Alf's Escape will cost, yes, you can buy it as DLC separately when it comes out.

If Playstation Plus costs a little extra money (a monthly fee?), I bet that'll irritate a few people unless they're getting it for more than just N'n'T. Will people at least get to keep their access to the game if their subscription runs out?

(Makes me sort of glad I'll be waiting for the Steam version. I don't mind buying the DLC if they're putting it on the PC later.)

Thank you very much for clarifying, Wil. I will not be purchasing Playstation Plus in that case. Just a shame we couldn't get a pre-order offer that had it free with it like the US.

Seconded, but at least they've been able to work something out in the other territories too.

Thanks for the help Wil!

JennyGenesis 07-14-2014 11:56 AM

The PS Plus thing don't affect me. I had a 12 month subscription with my PS4 bundle.

I'm sorry this is such a first world problem

Goddamnit I wish it was coming to Steam soon!

Connell 07-14-2014 08:16 PM

I am honestly so hyped now I can't wait for the release date.

I still owe you one. Remember for that book? On which system do you need it?
It would be a shame that you can't hear yourself in the game ;)

My thinking as well and that's exactly what I'm going to do.

You will keep it when your subscription expires. It is stated at the end of the article on Oddworld.com.

Scrabaniac 07-15-2014 02:35 AM

Oh hello 30 day free trial! ;)

Nah I'm gonna pay for the extras. I'd rather fund a new game.

Xavier 07-15-2014 02:53 AM

Haha true, you can have a 14 days trial period for PS+ :D

https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwo...PLUS14DAYTRIAL

Just remember to unsubscribe after 14 days otherwise you are billed for the next month.

I will always pay attention to unsubscribing after what happened to me with Twitch. Humble E3 Bundle included Twitch Turbo for 1 month. So I bought it for just 1 $. I didn't know that they will charge me every next month ;_; .

Leant that the hard way. I still have my subscription actually. :D

Scrabaniac 07-15-2014 09:26 AM

Its a shame they can't do the download early and unlock later scheme in UK, Seems like a bit of a fail since JAW is based over here :/

Yeah, but on the other hand the publisher is based in the US.

JennyGenesis 07-15-2014 02:39 PM

Isnt the publisher the platform developer?

Holy Sock 07-15-2014 05:15 PM

No. But they can be.

SoulStorm64 07-15-2014 07:42 PM

Well then...


V_O_T 07-15-2014 09:33 PM

Until I see a new area I havnt seen, that's just the trailer on your PS3 with your PS3 controller.

Nice try tho lol.



I however, have a legit steam copy running because I got into the beta test and my dad works for Valve.

Xavier 07-15-2014 11:09 PM

Ok can we stop pretending we have the game while it's obvious it's not the case?

Thanks

V_O_T 07-15-2014 11:23 PM

We cannot contain our excitement. All these threads on every little screen shot we get. All this time we have been talking and asking for new Oddworld stuff.

Its literally 6-7 days away..

It really is.

V_O_T 07-16-2014 04:31 AM

The good news is for me, is that when NnT comes out, I have night shift work as a chicken farmer, meaning I have to stay up all night managing jobs. While it is pretty straight forward, I get a good 6 hours of down time while work is being done by the workers.

The release could not have come at a better time. What happens if you guys make over a million moolah irl? :O


Now that i mention it... I am running a poultry farm, and this is feeling a bit too much like Rapture Farms.. I swear i dont wear a purple suit at work and smoke a big cigar while working lol

Do you feel an overwhelming sense of entitlement towards brow-sweat? Been hanging out with anyone named Atlas lately?

SoulStorm64 07-16-2014 07:09 AM

Pshhhhh 6 or 7.... More like 30 to 60 for meee D: damn not having a ps4 :/....

Scrabaniac 07-16-2014 07:46 AM

I'm getting my Ps4 on Monday, I will be attempting to set its region to US. Even though is only a day earlier, The store updates at 2pm-ish i think, then it would take forever to download so i wouldn't be playing it until about the 25th probably.

Let me know if this works for you. I'm planning to buy a PS4 on Tuesday when hopefully I will have the cash. Would love to be able to have it ASAP.
