walmart's drop will be 7pm/est wednesday night.



So 6 PM my time zone then.

If you can't beat them, join them. I'm considering caving and getting a bot to be able to scoop one up for myself and killing that bot after.

Does anyone know how they should go about doing that?

anybody wanna try this?

Also a trick for you guys to make your check out more efficient. Go to dvper tools in chrome on your ps5 oos page

type ctrl f

search for "add to cart"

above the script theirs a line that says "Hide"

delete that tree and the add to cart button shows up

so now go into a new tab and add something to your cart

keep both those tabs open and open another one that has auto refresh on

so three tabs in all

One at check out, one at add to cart, and now one on autorefresh

happy hunting

you can check out basically in an instant. Granted your out of que

even if you dont get it you can get it added to your cart, so you can eventually check out on the next drop

Yeah, I'm going to need to see a screen recording of this happening in real time because this is hard to follow.

I'm on a macbook btw.

I'll look into that.

Meanwhile I just saw this for Playstation Direct.

quote:

This is to help acquiring a PS5 via PlayStation Direct:

Newly available stock seems made available on PlayStation Direct weekdays anywhere between 10 AM - 6 PM EST. Product is made available one to two times per day.

Prior to listing the consoles for sale, the PlayStation Direct website will begin forcing users into a queue. Last week, an exploit was found that allowed users to cancel the redirection to this queue. This method no longer works. Now, users must go directly through the queue before being redirected to the site. If the queue shows over an hour wait, you will unlikely be able to purchase a console. Therefore, the goal is to enter the queue as early as possible.

Here are some tips:
- Make sure to stay signed in to the website.
- Make sure your address and payment information is already on file. You can purchase and cancel an order to save credit card data.
- Use a Chrome-based browser and download an auto refresh extension with notifications.
- Set the extension to refresh the hardware page every 10 seconds, and to notify you if something changes on the site (such as the words "out of stock" no longer present).
- If you manage to add a console to your cart, but the product is out of stock, do not remove it from your cart and automatically refresh the cart page instead of the hardware page allowing you to complete the checkout sooner when stock becomes available.

Good luck, and remember, it's just a toy, and they will be made widely available after the New Year. Do not purchase from scalpers.

lots and lots of butthurt on the xbox subreddit about the PS5 equaling or exceeding the XSX in every next gen offering so far

not sure how it's even possible given the hardware differences tbh, maybe the rumors about the PS5 being easier to develop/optimize for are true

i tried it and got it to the point where the button was added back on, but then when you click the button it takes you to an error page saying that the product is out of stock. can't figure out how to get past this point.

Got my PS5 Digital Edition in yesterday. Ordered it from Direct on Thursday with 1-2 day shipping. (Just kept refreshing the Direct page until I got lucky)

It's fricking massive.

Apparently the dev tools for Xbox aren’t fully matured yet. The PS5’s were more of a continuation from last gen.

So you were refreshing to queue page? Or the out of stock page?

The night before I was refreshing the queue page. Was in the queue for an hour and got out of it 3 minutes after the PS5s went out of stock


So now I was in the Out of Stock page, and went to work and closed the laptop, got home, refreshed it once, still Out of Stock. Refreshed again 5 minutes later, Add to Cart appeared. Ordered with no problems.
