Tips for the Preorder midnight release if this one is your first.

Hello, i've been to about 7 preorder midnight releases and it can get pretty crazy from the amount of people that show up. For big games like this, you can expect to see around 400-500 people if the store you got the preorder for is popular. (Gamestop) Let's get started! :) [b]Tip #1[/b]: Be early and get your ticket in line ASAP! I can not stress this enough. Get to the Preorder destination before it starts getting dark. Get your ticket around 8:00 pm. They usually start the line up around 11:00 - 11:30, but i recommend being there at 10:00 pm to 10:30 pm tops. You do not want to be standing around in line and be like 200th in line. Also if you get your ticket before things get crazy, you can go out to eat or just go get snacks and chill some where instead of just being around everyone. [b]Tip #2[/b]: Bring money. This is related to #1, you're probably going to get hungry. I suggest eating before you leave entirely or bring snacks and water. [b]Tip #3[/b]: Bring a friend or something to keep you occupied and kill time. It's going to get boring, trust me. You can meet new people and exchange your GTs or PSNs if you'd like. Bring a phone with some games on it, or something small. Don't bring a tablet cause you never know if you'll drop it or something might happen. [b]Tip #4[/b]: Don't be one of those guys who scream in joy when you get your hands on the game. It just makes you look stupid. [b]Tip #5[/b]: Wear comfortable clothes. (tshirt, shorts, etc) You're going to be standing around ALOT. Wear comfortable clothes but also bring warm/dry or rain proof depending on where you live remember you are going to be there a long time and depending on where you live be prepared. [b]Tip #6[/b] Just have fun. Sometimes at Gamestop they setup a big tv with the game so people can play. like 1v1 or 2v2. And they have trivias where you can win stuff like a wristband or a cardboard cutout :) Just have a good time. It'll be fun! Thanks for reading! :D Hope these tips help you out! Comment questions if you have any, i'll most likely reply! And leave other helpful tips! We will destroy the darkness, Guardians.

  • Or go to walmart or target like I do every year where they always have 1000 copies because everyone's at gamestop. Then go drive past gamestop and scream at the top of you're lungs,"Suckaaaassssssssss!"
