It's not about individual modes or features. PR embargo means 'STFU and don't say anything' and it concerns developer employees, don't confuse it with NDA.

Oh, I'm respecting my own money. That's why I don't even consider preordering this game. And I'm very skeptical but at the same time I'm unable to be informed cause there is no info available. The problem I have is with 2K being disrespectful to PC customers - giving an option for preorder without any information about what you will recieve, WTF? It's not about customers being cautious, thoughtful, intelligent. It's about 2K being so very similar to EA. It's about being honest and decent vs being greedy and a little bit deceitful. Yeah, I know it's all about business and making dough but what would anybody say about a salesman trying to get money from a customer for a product which he's unable to properly get familiar with? 'Just look at the box and decide if you buy it'. To make things worse 2K is trying to lure people into buying this pig in a poke by dishing preorder bonuses for PC version.
Yes, I agree that whoever makes a PC preorder right now is... well... pretty naive. But that doesn't make 2K any less guilty of mistreating their PC customer base.
