This is a really noob question I know but I just need to make sure cuz I'm like that.

The pre-release I can buy in the online store for GW:EN is access to the preview weekend ONLY and not the real game, right?

Something I just had to ask ^^;;

Yeah, that's right.=P
And if you've bought the pre-order in the online store you get discount if you also buy the real game in the online store.=P

You are partly correct, yes.

The pre-release pack when bought from the online store gives you access to the weekend preview event, three exclusive weapons, and most importantly in my opinion, the cost of the pre-release pack is taken off of the price of the full retail version (when bought from the online store) when it is released at the end of August.

It will also count as part of the spending needed in the online store in order to get the "Free" Bonus Mission Pack when that is released sometime in October/November.

Hope this helps.

Excellent! Exactly what I wanted to know!

I really want the bonus mission pack you see so that's why I'm buying it from the store. I was in a kind of panic just incase the real game IS that cheap for some reason.

When does the pre-release become no longer available as my birthday's on the 16th and that's when I plan to buy it.
