So I pre-order the LCE, but Does anyone else feel like we should be able to play it a week early as well? I mean, $250 gets me a statue and stuff, but If I can download a week early, then why can't I play it a week early?

For one thing, the entire multiplayer portion of the game will not be available until this Thursday when the 8 GB patch is released. Currently, review copies are limited to solo campaign. The game will be ready for the world to play on the 27th, not a week before. Also, anyone with a digital copy has the ability to preload the game. This allows players to immediately hop into the game on launch day. I don't blame you for questioning your purchase decision, but you knew what you were paying for, and early access was not part of it.

To be fair though, they did early access for people who bought FM6 VIP/Limited edition like 4 days early if it was pre-downloadable.
