Pre-release isn't the CE.

Just wanted to send thanks out to NCSoft Europe for making sure that us poor deprived Aussielanders got our PBPs this time 'round. Last time I had to import.

All European retailers should be following this policy. Please feel free to post about your experiences with obtaining the Pre-Release pack once it becomes available.

Yeah, Pre-release is different from CE, but just wondered if having pre-order my CE whether Amazon would be following the policy of Gamplay of offering me (& other) the prerelease for free as I (we) have pre-ordered the CE (even though i did it as soon as I could via their site )

For us Dutch: check out www.dimensionplus.nl who now have some info posted about the pre-pack. It doesn't mention the extra character slot however, which leaves me a bit puzzled. Keep us posted

I take it back, EB as a whole, does not suck.(Just the EB store I used to frequent)
I placed my pre-order for CE today at a different store, and was informed that I could pick up my free pre-order bonus pack on friday.

Here is what Amazon.de (German Division) has to say about that. The letter was received by a member of the german forums. I've taken the liberty to translate it into English. It contains NO shifts in meaning whatsoever. This is 100% undilluted what they expressed. Have fun:
Quote:
Good Day,
and thank you for writing Amazon.de
No, Amazon is not going to deduct the costs of the Pre-Order package from the price of the coming game – to our knowledge, only one internet shop is doing that: the web-presence of the manufacturer itself
Other traders, like us, sell the Preorder Package as “additional content” for 2€; some nice things to pass the time until the release of the game, courtesy of the manufacturer.
There is no key allowing Beat-access inside the Pre-Order package (such keys do generally not exist, as anybody can take part in this Beta Test, no matter if he ordered or not) and so on. [ No kiddin’]
You can purchase the Preorder package without preordering the game as they are not a bundled product.
Was I able to help you? Our team is gladly there for you.
|
Last time, all major German shops just sold the Factions PreOrder "below the pricepoint of bother". Trying to get cashier clerks to refund your 2€ can be truly described as being a Titan's Quest.

dynabite.nl gives the pre-release box as a pre-order box, just like Factions.
I called and the telephone guy said "Aye it is matey".

my search today revealed
Amazon.co.uk Nightfall and CE listed no Pre release pack
Pcworld.co.uk Nothing excpet factions normal
HMV As Amazon
Virgin No nightfall or PRP.
Game as Amazon
Gamestation Has PRP listed but not price and only 1 version of Nightfall with no details.
Gameplay Has Nightfall and CE listed and you get the PRP if you preorder but the CE is £10 more than amazon.
Gameseek.co.uk As Amazon

So it looks like my only option is to go buy this from Game in-store. I don't like doing this as it means driving and then finding a car park space. All of which cost money. Then pay more than I would from an online store. Then drive back which again costs money.
Two releases now and two problems on each. Factions was delayed for some people since there weren't enough CE's made to go around. Now this with 1 working day left before release and there's total confusion as to where this can be purchased from.

I used to buy all my stuff from amazon.co.uk, but unfortunately they don't ship to Ireland now (recycling laws) Any idea where to buy this here in Ireland?
I might go visit several shops in the area on saturday, but I too would prefer getting it online...

I think they got a bit confused, and didn't seem to understand by what I meant about a prelease pack for Nightfall so I have emailed them again clarifying what I meant.
Will post again with their reply.

Still can't find any option to order Nightfall at all here in Norway. No pre-order, no pre-sale-box (and how come we can't order the box online here, but just the keys??)
