I did. If you don't like the place you pre ordered from or have fears then simply go somewhere else. I suggest gamestop and you acted like I knew where this guy lived. They are in 14 countries so its a viable suggestion without knowing where he lives.

Facts are never silly grow up.

The way GAME seem to be doing things is that online preorders get the full box (which is nice) AND the email key so that they can play in the FWE. Since that has passed, perhaps they feel the email key is useless and are now just sending out the box and its key?

You hit the nail on the head!

I just got replies on both my messages:
The reply on the email:

Quote:

Dear Erik

Thanks for your e-mail.

We no longer mailed codes after the 24th March - as they would have been useless - that was the date that the special preview event took place. You ordered on the 27 March, three days after this.

We will mail a pre-order bonus pack prior to release which will give you a 24 hrs head start, we've just received these packs and they will be mailed later this week.

I hope this clarifies the situation.

All the best
Kieron
GAME Customer Service

And the reply on my contact via the contact form:

Quote:

Dear Erik,

Thank you for your email.

I can confirm that pre-order beta keys are sent out in batches every Thursday, so hopefully you should receive yours this week. If you experience any problems with this order then please contact Customer Services on 0870 750 2743 and one of our agents will try and resolve the matter for you.

Should you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Regards,

Rosie Douglas

What isn't clear to me, does the second reply state they're sending out keys by email? Or does Rosie mean the same as the first reply?

Well, this just made my day. Thanks GAME.net!

Looks to me like Kieron knows about GW and what he's talking about, and Rosie has just checked up on when Game send out email keys.

So I'd say they're just sending out boxes now.

BellyFlop · Apr 05, 2006, 02:10 AM // 02:10

To be honest i got my Pre-order and i am not sure if its worth the hassle.

But again thats me.

I sure hope the CE its loads better.

its was funny when the guy at the GAME store ask me "are you sure you want to pay £2.00 for this"? that got me thinking lol

Yeah, I noticed that too, but thanks for the answer!

Don't want to worry you further, but I just noticed on Game.net that it says the bonus item is for UK residents only

Sorry about the extra worry. This is the banner from the Game.net Factions pages that come up for me

Haggard · Apr 06, 2006, 12:01 AM // 00:01

Same worry here, I've pre-ordered it from game.net, and a week later still no box. Makes me a bit angry that the only actual reason to get it from game.net hasnt actually happened, simplygames.co.uk would have set me back 2 months less towards that new PC :@

Plushie Penguin · Apr 06, 2006, 02:12 AM // 02:12

what I am wondering is, would employees of stores like com usa be able to buy a pre-order before they realease it to the public?

In the emails I got, see page 1, Kieron says that they're getting the boxes later this week (I'd say around today) and going to ship them. I'll send an other email about the 'bonus items', cause I don't know what they are?

Lets hope so coz I ordered mine way back at the beginning of March and have still not received anything.

Johny Elemental · Apr 06, 2006, 03:10 PM // 15:10

hey all, do you know what will happen if i ordered factions off the internet (from gameplay) and activated the access code but then cancelled the order?

cheers Johny

Plushie Penguin · Apr 06, 2006, 07:32 PM // 19:32

I don't think you can get the key without the box, AN did the orignal GW like half-life, halo,battle front and such, I think they would do the same thing

Johny Elemental · Apr 06, 2006, 08:08 PM // 20:08

i got the key thru email ,went on to the guild wars log in screen done all the stuff with the acess code then because i saw the preorder from game, i cancelled the order. i dont know whats gonna happen with the acess code :S
