Division finally shipped and I got the base points and the 250 despite pre-ordering long before the $15 promo. Now to wait for the other $10 to come in.



Did you pre-order during the promo period or before? If so then you're getting $15 back and the extra $5 has been posting immediately with the $10 to come in a week or two.
I missed out on the $15, so I'm only expecting $10. The $5 just posted to my account this morning. Maybe my order was somehow added to the $15 deal even though I just pre-ordered a couple weeks ago and I'll get another $10 (or at least the $5 I'm owed), but right now that order has been completed and nothing else is showing as pending. It's just a bit weird. I've never had anything like this happen with the bonus points.

 
I pre-ordered TCTD almost a week after the $5 bonus expired but it looks like I'll be getting it.  The 500 RZ points haven't shown up yet but I'm in no rush.

They probably have nothing in their system to distinguish a preorder from one week to the next.
But you figure pre-ordering outside of a date range would be easy enough to see for them, but whatever.

FYI: I put $5 down on a pre-order for this over the weekend but haven't picked it up yet, and a buddy of mine picked up a copy in-store today on my account and I see the bonus 250 points on his purchase.

You would think they can, but doesn't look like it. So it seems everyone who preordered it, will get the $5 it seems.

 
Is the Season Pass for the game going to be like for R6 where the maps are free and you can still get the content, but it'll take longer/they must be unlocked, or like in COD where if you don't have it you're locked to what the disc came with?
 
Used GCU and $68 in giftcards and walked out with Gold edition $11 out of pocket.
I outright paid for mine to be shipped, but when it gets here I'll return it and use:
  • $50 GC from the :xb1:/laptop bundle fiasco of 2016.
  • $20 "I'm sorry for sending you FEF:SE a few days late" promo GC
  • Remaining on my Bluebird.
That all worked out nicely, as I was about to cough up $99.99 in trade credit at GameStop.

have you guys played the game already? what are your thoughts?

there are some reviews on steam saying that the game is so repetitive.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/365590/
If you played either the Alpha or either Beta and enjoyed the game, you should enjoy the final product. Ubisoft gave lots of opportunities for people to play the game, so I'm confused to see so many negative reviews so quickly.

Because the servers imploded for like 2 or 3 hours right after launch. And their attention spans were too short to remember this thing is common with games of this sort.

 
Are the 5.0-6.5 scores this game is getting accurate or is it just because of server issues?

Does anyone know if best buy still has amazon gift cards? If so, are we still able to buy them with best buy credit?
 
Aww that sucks. I guess I haven't traded anything into Best Buy longer then I thought, lol. Thanks for the info guys!

 
Did I dream it or were The Division preorders through BB supposed to include some bonus digital DLC? Or is that the National Guard stuff?

 
So, Battleborn is the last man standing then? C'mon Best Buy, if this really is the end you could at least give us Overwatch instead :p

There is nothing particularly remarkable about the division, but if you have friends playing it then it's great.
It reminds me of the little I played of Destiny. It's a lot of the same thing over and over, the mechanics have that sort of spongey Borderlands quality to them, and the story is kind of WTF. That being said I'm still enjoying it for what it is however long that enjoyment lasts.

 
Looks like my full points posted for The Division already, that was nice and quick.
My purchase just showed up in my rewards history a few minutes ago with the 250 bonus (but no 500), so I assume I'm set to get the $15 cert instead of the $10?

I actually pre-ordered before the deadline, but the kid at the register pre-ordered the PS4 version instead which he then immediately switched to the Xbone version, so I've been a little paranoid about a fuck-up.

 
How do the points and certs work?

I was 51 points away from 250, but I had about 300 points pending. That was before I picked up two pre-orders of The Division (one of which was during the $15 cert offer) and a copy of Pokemon X.

Right now, I have a $10 cert, I have 45 points, with 239 pending. But my Division orders both had the 250 bonus points. Will I still be getting the expected $25 from both pre-orders?

You should, the 500 will say victory can be pre-ordered or something and the 250 will say something else.

You might get the $5 bonus on both, since they seem to be pretty liberal with who's getting it, but the $10 pre-order should only apply to one copy per account.

 
I did a instore pick up for the gold edition and they tried selling me the standard version. How did that even go through? Sadly I walked out with nothing :(

the gold ed just includes rhe season pass. U should have told them that they should honor your order by selling you the standard + season pass for $99 and 20% off your total.
 
Thanks. Yeah, the 250 shows up as "Gamers Club Unlocked Preorder Point Bonus"

Here's hoping the other 500 show up soon.
This is what my says on both of my copies. I have one I ordered way back in December during the sale, and another copy I ordered last week.

Oddly enough though, it's 344 points for both, but neither seems to be factored into my Pending points.

 
My division preorder 500 points just came through last night. So now I have the total $15 I expected. Not bad!
 
GCU's value has plummeted - what's the point if you have Prime? People can only point to the preorder credits, but BB has decreased year over year the amount of eligible games (it's March and only two announced?). I only preorder 3 or 4 games with a discount, which only makes me break even with the GCU. Otherwise, the 20% is matched by Amazon, and they give you release day shipping unlike BB. Am I missing something? Why should I renew my GCU?

your move, Best Buy. Amazon came back hard so please don't sit there and assume you're in the lead.

Not the thread for this. To each their own. Don't renew if it does not benefit you.

Too bad you don't see the value.

Amazon does not give 20% off all new games, only 20% off pre-orders and only full price pre-orders. Once a game is released or goes on sale...no more 20%. Best Buy gives you 20% off any game that is sealed/new regardless of price.

For example, Disney Infinity 3.0 Marvel Battlegrounds. MSRP $30. BBY=$20=$16. Amazon=$20. They won't give 20% off a sale price even if it's a pre-order, unless they want to. So it's no where near as good.
