What would be ideal is if an EA community manager just posted a sticky message at the top of the board just saying the pre-load option has been cancelled and a brief overview of why.
Think it would go a long way to helping the community and players.
Yes, there's no preload at all now, my "preload" date is the same as launch date on my Play Launcher.
I'm wary though, I'd actually rather they postponed the launch now until they're sure they have a fully working product...seems they're cutting it too close for my liking and I don't like the image of devs being forced into a crunch for this title.

We have to anyway but that's completely missed the point of what I said.
Pre-loading helps to avoid excessive server load at launch.
That's the reason for it.
- 6 years ago@TheQuinch1199 That's like saying we shouldn't all be using google at the same time because it puts a strain on their servers. I'm sure they'll be able to handle it if configured correctly.

Oh gee, is this your first launch? I've yet to remember a major launch that didn't have server issues lol
