Personally I am not to concerned as long as they have the copies by the 27th due to the fact that when Nightfall goes online it will be 5:30 pm here in Adelaide, meaning we would have had all day to get our copies before the start. After the blunder with Factions we deserve some good service this time around (had to wait nearly 3 weeks after it was released to get my copy)
Yeah someone high up needs to pull some strings and get the word out to go ahead and allow retailers to display Nightfall as soon as it is received in shipment. We already are required to wait till the 27th to be able to play the game so we should at least be able to go ahead and prepare ourselves by picking up our retail boxes and cdkeys. That was we could all go ahead and enter our keys and be completely prepared and when it goes live it will much easier for the end user. It will also make this release look so much better than the last one. Imagine CE and standard edition released at the same time and EARLY!

the only thing that will make me sad is that my over-night shipping will get me the box on the 27th so Ill be sitting there doing some AB or crap for a few hours on the 26h while the people who use the online store start playing asap. (goes live at 3AM easterns so i guess its not too horrible... ill only be teased while i sleep)

Amazon.com seems delayed so I'm prolly going to cancel on them and go preorder it from my local EB. I'm not waiting until Nov 4-6 for Nightfall to come in the mail ~ thanks Amazon. :]

Ninja edit: Is it confirmed that you can buy Nightfall from the GW store?

Edit: Nevermind haha, I'm going to buy the access key right off the store. No shipping problems then! :]

I hope to have mine on the 27th as I preordered from GameStop, it says they'll ship on the 26th, however from past dealings with them, they will most likely use the 26th as the day they process the order, and ship it on the 27th. Then even with overnight shipping, I won't get it until the 30th. Only one time have I ever gotten an item on the day it was supposed to come out from GameStop.

I preordered my CE from Gamestop like a month ago, and overnight shipping (it's my birthday present so I'm not paying ) Right now it says it should be here on time, but my preorder pack is back ordered.

My order from Amazon.com also says delayed but my shipment estimate says oct 30th - nov 1st. I ordered the CE and when I saw delayed shipment I got a bit mad I might also do the same thing or just stick it out and see what happens. Amazon.com got me the factions standard on time so I still have some faith.

I'm going to wake up early on the 17th and buy NIghtfall through the online store. I don;t need a CE, and it gets me rolling quickly, no fuss, no muss.

Of course, I *will* be checkign the forums before buying, just to be sure that the launch and store are working properly. Love ANet; have great respect for their work. But I'm a software engineer, and I *know* how these things go sometimes...

So no one in the US has been able to get an actual copy yet? I'm in Florida and have been calling all the game stores in the area but it's still in their computers as the 27th.

Ugh, traffic...

Better yet, move to a less overly-populated centre of sub-urban sprawl and dont' worry about traffic at all, or take the bus...

Oh, Canada.... (And I don't mean Toronto, lol.. Come out West....)

I totally agree, since it would help me get it down to where I'm going to play ON TIME instead of later that day.

Oh, if they have shipped them out that early in Europe, Australia may just have it by Friday... But then again, your Friday is our Saturday, no deliveries on the weekend... Gah, just have to wait and see I guess...
