28th of November

So, its officially 28th of November. I have a trophies earned on the 26th on my ps4. But no online access. I guess its to early on the 28th yet. Anyone have news on when during the 28th I will be able to go online without ultimate edition? 

Edit; The mentioned trophies is earned on the 26th of October. Just to clarify and avoid comments on that.

I'm in the same boat. I'm going to guess it will go live for us at 12am EST. Which is when it will be Nov 28th, Eastern Standard Time. Which is about 5hrs and 35 minutes from writing this post. Since it's still Nov 27th, where I live.

I'm making this guess off of how the game went live for me and my standard order, at 12am EST on Oct 26th. Which was 9pm PST, my timezone in the United States.

Will probably have to wait til tomorrow then. Hard to wait, but guess that's life when you think you are smart and save like 1$ on buying special instead of ultimate edition... Regret that. Cant upgrade either..

I would imagine since it wasn't live this morning until 830a EST, it may be the same case as the rest of the days.  I wouldn't imagine they would give Ultimate Edition players ~16 hours earlier access from the Day One Players, then give Day One players 24 hours earlier access from the Week One players.  Not what they're calling them, I just threw random names in.  It would make sense to have it go live for the different groups of players every 24 hours, but since when does Rockstar (or anybody, really) do things that make sense.

I also have documented trophies on October 26th but I still can't connect. Did I have to sign in to a socialclub account to on the release date to play today?

I have online access this morning! I checked at 9:30 am PST. I was able to start an online session, with it giving me a cutscene. But I had to quit out, and go to work.

When I got home last night at around 11pm PST, there was a new patch. It was new to me, from playing the previous night. It quickly installed. There was now an ONLINE tab to select. But, there wasn't anything else to select after it. So no ONLINE mode play for me. I put my PS4 in rest mode to charge a controller and went to bed. When I checked this morning at around 9:30 amPST, waking up my PS4 out of sleep mode, I had the same result. I closed RDR2 from the home screen. Then started RDR2. Voila! I could now start ONLINE mode.

@nilsolsson11 if you have a PS4, try what I did. I don't think having a R* socilaclub account is going to matter. There is a RDR2 ONLINE faq graphic/info thingy someone posted on another forum. It makes no mention of a socialclub account requirement. It only mentions RDR2 versions, and when you started playing it.

Can't wait until I get off work to saddle up!

I have the Ultimate Edition for both PS4 AND the XBOX. Was on PS4 Yesterday, but didnt get XBox access until this morning. Might of been a glitch.
