    There goes another potential preorder.

    Streamers are some other kind of people, us paying customers and players really don't matter at all for Ubisoft.
    This is so pathetic that i canceled my pre-order.

    Not to mention the advantages they get with a exclusive early access.

    I simply refuse to support any game that has been played by streamers first, this goes for any game.

    we'll all be bullied by a bunch of streamers in the darkzone because they had half a day early access?
    don't sweat it too much ; 3/4 of those streamers will stop playing before even engaging in the darkzone.

    in the end it's good for the game to build a viewerbase a few hours before the launch, i see what they did.

    we just need dr disrespect to pretend to like it for 1 or 2 weeks and were set

    You don't have to watch them. I don't understand the salt over streamers playing one day earlier that Gold Edition. Ubi said we could play on the 12th, we'll be able to play on the 12th. They haven't broken their word, what is the big deal?

    Who gives a crap what streamers do or get.

    I have early access for the 12th so 1 day extra for them whoopee do, can't see the issue with it.

    Seriously, I don't see the big deal either. I don't watch 99% of the stuff out there on YT. I mean, why do I want to see someone playing a game that I will be getting in just a few hrs /days and ruin it for me? .....but I can see how some game companies would tap into that resource as it's a great marketing opportunity for them.

    Chalk me up as one of the folks here that just don't get this argument. I'll wager Ubi will gain more positive attention because of this decision than they will lose in sales because of it.

    Must be a PvP thing ... so what happens if someone puts in extra hours to you? If you have to leave the house for some reason, shopping maybe ... or maybe you only leave the house when the servers are down for maintenance? What happens when you go to bed and another player stays up longer ... you get them banned because they put in a couple hours extra?

    I really don't get it ...

    Currently enjoying SchviftyFive's Division 2 stream … looking forward to getting in myself in approx. 7 hours …

    I never understand why people watch other people playing games. My nephew used to watch Ninja on fortnite which baffled me. Why not just play the game instead?
