You have to make a third room and i think the 2nd or 3rd upgrade will connect it to the 2 rooms. I believe 3 roomscombined is the max. Thats why i had this setup. The 4single rooms onthe bottom are special upgrade rooms. I hardly use them since i takes around 3 hours for an upgrade to finish. Hehe! Fun times! Breeding is tough! I always end up with week kids.

Sorry for the OT replies.

So i ended up not canceling my PO for the pipboy edition that i was really thinking of forgoing 2 days ago. The reason was unexpected. It was not cause of fallout 4 but coz i suddenly got hook to FALLOUT SHELTER! Hehe! After playing the app for a couple of hours i ended up giving in to some in-app purchases and getting addicted. I now wanted the pipboy to play this game on... Weird, i know but somehow this did it for me. Damn! You guys should definitely get this app too if you have ios.

I emailed amazon about the $20 promo issue and quickly later chatted with another rep on chat because I wanted a quicker resolution. Somehow I ended up with a $20 price adjustment, a $20 gc to use for my next order, and I still have the $20 promo code applied to my account to use on the regular edition of Arkham Knight.

Shit, I hope amazon doesn't blacklist me.

Weird because I see a lot of people on here that are visibly upset. Pages of them in fact. So clearly it did cost plenty of people a good amount of grief. Grief severe enough that $20 is not sufficient to compensate them.

Some people just don't understand what being blocked means. It means you've made an inordinate amount of stupid posts that I no longer care to read.
Click to expand...
Just because people are visibly upset over something doesn't necessarily mean that they should be. Plus, I'm pretty sure all of those people would be just as visually upset if there were no pre-orders, they walked into their favorite store to buy games on the day it releases and they were sold out of the Batmobile edition. Hell, I think I'd be more upset that the only way for me to buy something is to spend an extra hundred at least to get it on ebay and wait for it to ship than the fact that my order cancelled because it wasn't quality and by the way I just got a free $20.

Uhh no, I just contacted them to see if they can add the $20 promo code to my limited edition. I wanted to contact them first by chat but I already sent the message before I realize it was email instead of chat. So that is when I went to chat. The chat rep couldn't get the code to applied to my limited edition and offered to give me a $20 gc to use on my next order to replace the $20 promo code. After I accepted it and the conversation ended I got an email from the first rep saying that he adjusted the limited edition to $79 because the promo code was not working.

No bitching or moaning. It's called having a civilized conversation. You should try it sometimes and see how far that can take you. Don't be a jerk just because you're online and anonymous.

don't worry, after members/lurkers on this site read your comments. they will probably follow suit, and ask for the same thing. so you won't be the only one

The game is really fun and addicting. Though almost everyone in my shelter keeps dying due to radroach attacks. Currently have around 50 people. Thinking about buying some lunchboxes.

Thanks I figured it out.

I actually got some Premium Lounge wear(raises charisma) and put it on one guy and he impregnated every female in my shelter. At one point I had 7 pregnant females, bet every dweller was miserable lol. Good way to get dwellers fast.

On topic- That's unbelievable about the Batman CE. It's weird they just figured out it wasn't going to happen. Like someone else said, I'd hate to have to deal with eBay. Both the seller and buyer are in for a headache.
 
Finding out the Batmobile Edition is canceled and my Youtube Subscriptions videos lay it out perfectly on how I feel.

Walmart just shipped my price error Batman CE (PS4) :D.

Sucks to hear about people bat mobile version, and it's even crazier they waited a week till release to tell everyone. People should be grateful for any credit retailers are giving them, technically its not their fault. BBY oversold MM3DS so they were at fault, this case is nothing like that.  WB better be giving people who has the CE extra content since everyone "appears" to be getting the new 52 skins. 

 
I feel badly for you guys that got your Batmoblies cancelled.  I ordered the CE from Walmart on the 14th, and it shipped yesterday.   I'm inclined to believe that the Batmobiles were never actually made, because if those were cancelled today and the statues shipped the day before, they'd have cancelled due to production error at least a few days ago.  The timeline just doesn't add up.  Anyway, most of you guys ordering from Target/Walmart today, I wouldn't worry about those getting cancelled since they obviously have the stock in their warehouses already.

So I have a question about the Halo 5 LE/CE

J4PRm.jpg


http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/06/18/halo-5-guardians-collectors-edition-statue-revealed?abthid=55822344c911b2a65f000016

Thats the LE, and from what I can tell there is a digital download for the game and a steelbook, no pictures of the CE, which is supposed to be the same minus statue and warzone pack

If I am seeing the image right they are selling a LE/CE without a disc, but with a steelbook, and a digital download card?

If so what the hell are they on? I mean whole point of buying a CE is cause you want the physical version of the game. Stupid that if I want CE content and a disc to go with my steelbook im going to have to pay a standard copy, assuming theres even a disc slot in the CE.

Unless (highly unlikely) they are giving me a disc and a digital download....which would be very foolish on their part, but I would gladly take so.

Was hoping someone on here had any clarification to share.

PS Arkham Knight Compensation is BS!
Click to expand...
Check out the Tuesday XBOX Daily show, they talk about it there. Supposedly CE ships a week early, but it is digital only...go figure.

So glad Halo doesn't get me excited like the old days.

 
Batmobile peeps are getting screwed. Rocksteady must have known for weeks that this wouldn't happen, but kept fans in the dark in favor of driving the hype train leading to the game's release.

Anyways, has anybody made a consolidated list of all E3 (CE) titles available for preorder?
 
gnoh said:
Wonder what's going to happen on ebay. It's too late for most sellers to get a fee refund on their items since its past 90 days and the item listing disappeared already but also buyers can't even leave negative feedback if the buyer chooses to screw them and take the money. Gonna be interesting seeing if sellers try and net out the ebay fee or just eat 10%
Click to expand...
I sale on Ebay daily, but I've never done sales for items not in my possession for this very reason. I don't fault buyers or sellers for going this route, but I just don't like the variables involved in something like this, so I never do it.

This is really an ass move on the part of the publisher. I understand quality being an issue, but that should have been worked out long before now, and other options made available to those who lost out. They should have done this sooner, and allowed retailers to adjust qty for the bat-mobile LE, and allow for the standard LE to be a replacement. This all falls on the publishers shoulders, and they should make good on any issues retailers may get from this cluster****.

I'm lucky I guess, as I don't have a next gen system yet, so I didn't bother with any of these versions, but normally it's good to just order one of everyone offered, and then cancel what you don't need or want near release, so you have your options open. Sadly, I don't think that would have helped much here, as they waited so late to tell customers, you may have cancelled the standard a week ago, only to miss out on the Bat-mobile this week. What a nightmare for many, good luck though, maybe some more standard LE will pop up soon.

So is this batmobile fiasco worse then the Zelda 3ds? Or does that still take the cake?
Click to expand...
This is way worse. The MM 3ds issue was a problem with something that was outside of all the primary players controls. They couldn't help that dock workers decided it was OK to walk off their jobs and leave all their products in containers for months
 
Got an email from Walmart this morning regarding the Batman LE. They did not include a revised arrival date like the email states:

Thank you for your Walmart.com preorder. The release date of the item(s) listed below has been delayed. The revised arrival date is shown below.

We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Please note that Walmart does not control this release date, which is set by the manufacturer.

Looks like it might be delayed?

Well, that's not what happened, so not sure how that answers anything.

Nintendo's decision to make very few of them, and to also pull the rug out from under some retailers was the problem. There was no "walk off the job" for dock workers at all.

I got a shipping notice for my LE this morning but they mentioned it went out later than they had anticipated so I won't get mine until next Thursday. I signed up for the free shipping so it's coming by UPS ground.

Triforce Twitter account has been getting bombarded with angry tweets. They are telling folks to email Josh lol

I got a shipping notice as well. In the email Walmart says delivery by Thu, Jun 25. But both tracking #s from UPS (Ground) estimate Tuesday delivery.

The fact that the Halo 5 LCE statue is made by TriForce is enough to make me steer clear. fuck that company.
Click to expand...
I bailed on my BB pre-order and my Amazon backup pre-order for the Halo 5 LCE. Since it's just the damned box and the statue, with the deletion of the game disc in exchange, I can certainly be more than happy with the LE.

Halo 4 didn't even have a CE, if I'm remembering right and no one was raising hell over that decision. Weak LE for Halo 4, too.

Yeah, it DID have a CE (or an LE) and there were quite a few complaints that they didn't do a "Legendary Edition" like many of the other Halos (ODST and 2 excluded)

I sent them a pretty pointed tweet and emailed Josh so I'll post any updates.

BBY forums has officially acknowledged the batmobile fiasco. Seems like the mods are implying they will comp us.

Blast! I was going to order it at BB too for GCU, but since I already had it at GS and it was seeming to be pretty rare, I left it alone for someone else. Guess that "someone else" will also get the BB compensation too. Don't feel like I necessarily deserve anything from the retailer, but when all the OTHER retailers are doing something, GS just looks even sadder.

Well, that's not what happened, so not sure how that answers anything.

Nintendo's decision to make very few of them, and to also pull the rug out from under some retailers was the problem. There was no "walk off the job" for dock workers at all.

I mean, I don't know where those MM N3DS system were, but I know they showed up at a lot of Best Buys (and Gamestops) after the slowdown had been resolved. Coincidence?

If you have GCU why didn't you just get the best buy one and cancel the gamestop one if you wanted someone else to have it? The savings on that CE was $40 with GCU.

It was a contract dispute, not a strike. Nobody walked off the job is one point I am making.

Also, Nintendo did make very few of them, and they did reallocate where many of them were going at the last minute. All of that was still in play and added to the "fiasco" status of the whole thing regardless of shipping delays. Those two things still would have made it a fiasco had the inventory been delivered on time.

I got a shipping notice for my LE this morning but they mentioned it went out later than they had anticipated so I won't get mine until next Thursday. I signed up for the free shipping so it's coming by UPS ground.

Triforce Twitter account has been getting bombarded with angry tweets. They are telling folks to email Josh lol

Oh, this should be good. The season pass should have a SKU in their system, so they should be able to provide that gratis.

It was an LE since I had bought it, though it was a semi-lame LE save for the steelbook.

I ordered a :ps4: Batman LE (the non-Batmobile version) a few months ago - during that Walmart price error. The order, however, is now missing from my order history now! Should I be concerned - or is the Walmart site acting up?

Do you have the order #?

We have to agree to disagree.
They DID strike. Ships sat idle for a long time.

http://natmonitor.com/2015/02/21/massive-dockworker-strike-on-west-coast-finally-ends-back-to-work-by-this-evening/

Then after the strike ended, magically tons of inventory started showing up at Best Buy and gamestop

Yes, they limited inventory.. But it's a Limited Edition. The "oversells" were because the retailers not knowing when they would get inventory thanks to the strike.

I don't remember anyone saying they started to see "tons" of the Zelda 3ds show up at stores after the strike.
