Hi, everyone,
Sorry if this question has been asked and answered already. I did a search, but there is so much discussion out there regarding pre-ordering that it's hard to weed through it all. I haven't pre-ordered since the Sims 3, but I'm considering doing it if there is a chance I'll be able to download early. I know I won't be able to play prior to the release date & time, but since I have to go somewhere other than home to download something this large, I would love to download early so the game is safely on my computer and ready to install and play when the time comes. Does anyone know if that's something I could hope for if I pre-order? I will order through Origin and pay that price if I can download early, but otherwise I may buy elsewhere that's cheaper.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

Are you referring to the new Seasons expansion pack? For more information about pre-loading you can check out the following EA Support page:
Hello
The game is locked until it reaches midnight on June 21/22 in the area where you live, Once it reaches 12:01a.m. On June 22nd your game pack will be able to be played.

There wasn't any real perk of pre-ordering instead of being able to immediately download at 12:01am on 6/22. I wish that EA/Maxis offered in-game incentives such as an exclusive outfit for pre-ordering, but I can understand why they don't. Hope that you were able to buy Seasons regardless!
