If i bought a digital copy of the game (at a higher price no less) when would i be able to download it and how long would it take?

In other words would i get it before the release day for PAL users or would i be quicker picking up the hard copy?

It looks like it's 25 GB in size, so if you're getting around 8 Mbps (eg around 800 kB per second), probably about eight hours, if I've calculated it correctly. To that end, you might be able to start downloading it early, but I couldn't guarantee that.

Man, that's the problem with EA Sports games now. The only cool pre-order stuff they give you now is Ultimate Team stuff. I'd rather just have a discount on the game lol

They'll spread out the 10 packs instead of giving you all 10 upfront like in Live 15.

That is a key difference this year. If you do pre-order, you'll have to make sure that you log in every week.

I still think EA should be rewarding owners of 14 and 15 in some way. Even if it is a bunch of UT credits, there weren't many of us who stuck with them through the thick and thin.

Loyalty bonuses certainly would encourage goodwill with a lot of gamers.

Haven't seen it come up in the Australian store yet. Physical copies are available to pre-order, but nothing on PSN, last time I checked.

I wish they'd do a Deluxe Edition like they do for all other EA Sports games.

With a deluxe edition you pay $10 extra for $50 worth of packs.

Not too shabby at all. Especially at the games release when all players have some worth.

I'd probably still miss out on my Scottie Pippen card. :lol: Fair few coins short of being able to pick up any of the ones I'm seeing in the NBA Live 15 LUT Auction house.

That's a ploy to get me to pay for something that I wouldn't pay for in the first place.

The same could be said of most pre-order bonuses. Still, I stand by my decision to get the Pip-Boy edition of Fallout 4.

Yoooo!!! I got one too for PC! I don't think I will open mine. Might be a true collectors edition that'll be worth something later.

I think I am.going to wait for the hard copy of both games, I can see the advantages of having the DC but I usually am the one of my mates who buys the game and don't fancy having to cart around my ps4 when we get together lol

I don't think I'd have the discipline. I want to use it. :lol:

I have NBA Live 15 digital, NBA 2K15 on disc. Makes it easier to switch between the two. I do like the idea of collecting physical copies, but that was definitely handy last year.
