I'm pretty sure it was pre loaded because the "game files leaked" on you know where last night.

So I only have one question and I don't want you to tell me not to pre-order or that game sucks or its already out.

Everybody who has the need to express their hatred opinion please keep it for someone who cares.

Now the question for those who pre-ordered the game in America or Canada:

Were u able to pre-load the game before it was released ???

Its important to me because I will be downloading the game over night and want to know if I should pre-order and play immediately after release or it doesn't matter.

I live in UK and release date for us is 20th March.

I found that Xbone has file size of 45GB, now when game got released on PC for America region I googled a little and it says 35GB.

Did devs for Xbone not bother getting rid of useless files again ? (Gears something like to that happening before).

I expected PC version to be 50-60GB because of better textures....

Maybe they compressed PCs game files more as PCs can run it better while on console, compression means harder work for the console.

 

Like why Titanfall was huge but really easy to run :)
