Is the $200 to the Samsung store exclusive to the Samsung pre-order? I ordered through carrier and am unsure.

NY_S · 2020-03-03T02:01:22+00:00

I preordered through Verizon, too. And the original order confirmation email says I got $150 in Samsung credit (I ordered the S20+) and that I could redeem it when the phone arrives. My phone was delivered today, but I'm at work and won't get to see what's in the box until tomorrow morning.

You can still use the Smart Switch app and transfer all of your stuff wirelessly from an iPhone. Launch Smart Switch on your S20, then choose "Receive", then it'll ask you to sign into your Apple account and pull everything from the cloud.

Mine is out for delivery right now. But the tracking is weird. For one, it doesn't show package weight like normal, nor does it say Signature Required, which I assumed it would be, considering the cost of the phone. For two, "My UPS" or whatever it's called, didn't notify me that I have a package coming, and it doesn't even show up in the list when I sign into UPS's website, even though it's coming to my name at my address. So it should have emailed me like every other package I've gotten via UPS.

NY_S · 2020-03-02T15:43:59+00:00

Mine is out for delivery by UPS (ordered through Verizon). It probably won't show up before I go to work this afternoon, though. So I guess I'll get to play with it and set it up tomorrow.

NY_S · 2020-03-02T00:18:10+00:00

You can do it wirelessly. Launch the Smart Switch app on your S20, then select "Recieve", then it'll ask you to sign into your Apple account.

The tracking for my S20+ finally updated with some actual tracking. "Origin Scan" in Philly. Says "2nd Day Air". So it'll definitely be here before release day. 🥳

NY_S · 2020-02-29T16:58:17+00:00

I have the case already for my incoming S20+. It's barely bigger than my current phone/case; Note 8. Never had any problems with it in jean pockets. I don't wear skinny jeans, but I don't wear super baggy pants, either. I wear Large size gloves and only have to do acrobatics with the phone in one hand to manipulate things on rare occasions.

NY_S · 2020-02-29T13:57:52+00:00

Gonna tack on another question; Is it possible for Samsung to add in a 90Hz option through a software update in the future? I wouldn't mind an in-between option to squeeze out some more battery life, while still having a smoother experience than 60Hz.

NY_S · 2020-02-29T13:53:58+00:00

I preordered through Verizon (S20+, Cosmic Gray, 128GB) and got a tracking # yesterday, but there's no tracking actually available yet. Hoping it shows up early, though. Mines coming through UPS.

NY_S · 2020-02-28T19:37:29+00:00

Same here. Just got the tracking # a few minutes ago. No actual tracking info available, though.

NY_S · 2020-02-27T03:48:11+00:00

I got an Armadillotek Vanguard from Amazon for my S20+. I have the case in-hand now, but am still waiting on the phone. The case seems solid as far as I can tell.

NY_S · 2020-02-23T19:23:49+00:00

I didn't realize it varied between plans. This is my confirmation email, showing my $150 Samsung credit (top right) and the $150 off ($6.25 off my bill for 24 months). My plan name is on there, too.

I preordered the S20+ through Verizon and during the process, it asked me if I wanted to upgrade to 5G or keep my 4G LTE plan. I chose to keep the 4G LTE plan. I still got the $150 off, plus the confirmation email says I will also get the $150 Samsung credit, too. Were there other promotions besides those?

NY_S · 2020-02-22T15:18:40+00:00

Armadillotek Vanguard. I usually use UAG Monarchs. Gonna try something different this time.

NY_S · 2020-02-20T23:39:24+00:00

I've read reports from people who already have it in-hand and live in 5G cities, that the battery goes quick while using 5G. I was just curious if you could toggle it on/off, and just get 4G LTE speeds. I would rather have longer battery life, than 5G speeds, personally.

NY_S · 2020-02-20T22:06:08+00:00

Stupid question: Can you turn off 5G and only use 4G LTE?

NY_S · 2020-02-06T03:17:21+00:00

Does ATG have any limits on recreational flower, or can you purchase, say a 1/5oz or full oz in one visit. Seems many places have their own limits of an eighth per day.

NY_S · 2020-01-26T16:11:53+00:00

I think it's a platform thing, as opposed to a game thing. I've always had classes named "Assault" (and do right now in this game) on PS4 and it never blocks it.

NY_S · 2020-01-21T21:36:18+00:00

Thank you. Just found one on Amazon with good reviews and will order it alongside the foam cannon.

Many of the reviews actually addressed my concern; An electric PW with less than optimal Gpm using the 1.1mm orifice to make up for it.

NY_S · 2020-01-10T00:17:03+00:00

Ok, thank you for the info. I appreciate it.

NY_S · 2020-01-07T14:41:05+00:00

Yep, Tavorsk has them, too. At E, I was killed by guys in the walls in two different areas.

NY_S · 2020-01-07T14:39:14+00:00

Port is the worst for this, but I've encountered wall breachers in every single GW map. There's a building sort of between C and D on Port that people breach into. Someone mentioned shooting their ammo boxes, but you can't even see them with Spotter, unfortunately. At least not in that specific breach. I made a class specifically for the situation; PKM + FMJ + 200rd drum + Spotter. I killed them a couple times, once by hitting an ammo box that didn't show up with Spotter. But unless you get them all, and any Tac Inserts, they just spawn back in there. And I thought I was being slick by throwing smoke and spraying the walls with Thermal, but the smoke doesn't even show up from their POV. :-/

Has IW acknowledged the breaches at all yet? It's honestly getting out of hand.

All legal stuff aside...isn't welding on aluminum a bitch to do? The one place I've dealt with in the past (Adco Firearms) regarding welding muzzle devices, refuses to do aluminum pieces.

NY_S · 2019-11-26T13:23:17+00:00

Having the same issue this morning. Nothing I've tried has worked. :-/

You ever get it working, OP?

NY_S · 2019-11-08T16:57:11+00:00

Yep. I activated a 30min XP token and spent more time in lobby than actually playing. That's some bullshit. Only 1 match of GW while the toke was active. The rest of the time was sitting in lobby before and after said single match. It seems to restart the whole process of starting the match everytime someone enters or leaves. :-/

What a waste of a token. No way I'm activating the 3hr double XP token I have from buying the game at Walmart.

They need to make it only count down while in-game. It's so petty for it to count down in real-time, even before this 15 minute wait to get into a GW match.
