Anyone who tried to get the Pre-order pack already knows that Anet servers don't handle mass store purchases well. I suggest putting the game on the store NOW to prevent everyone trying to purchase it at midnight Friday. >.>

I understand it's not an Anet server (it's NCSofts), but can't you persuade them to add it at least Thursday?

But don't make it active to the official launch date.
I almost got double charged trying to do the pre-order via in the online store because of the high volume.

Yes, don't "activate" the thing til Friday but by all means, let us go ahead and pay for it to reduce server strain and ensure everyone that wants it is able to get it.

Oh. And here I thought the purchase would be automated if you bought the pre-order. I was expecting to automatically see a 2nd charge on my credit card for the remainder amount on the 31st and immediately be able to start playing GWEN. Are we saying that's not the case o.O

People already got their EotN box and key... why on earth would you think the keys would be active before the game went live? It's not like this is the first time GW has released something new.

I also think the stuff could be in the stores a week earlier. So what if we have our keys and are ready to go. GW has a big problem with buying more than one key a week, if you have 2 accounts you will have to get a second credit card for the second purchase or wait a week to buy the second one.

It's not like we can play until they turn it on. And for Abbadon's sake it's in our computers already. So if someone from Anet reads please post a reply and explain your rules to us mortals.

Took me 4 days to get the mess with the preorder sorted out it would be nice to get started on this one now so I am not missing the first week of the game.

Not going to happen. There is already a large discussion about it here

With two days to go I don't think anything's going to be done about it, which is a real shame. I'm not really a big fan of fighting through crowds to anything, so I'll be waiting to start GW:EN.

I would've gladly paid in full by now and then waited to actually play.

/signed Yea, go for it. The servers will probably crash as soon as you launch the game anyway but you may as well attempt to reduce strain a little bit...

I don't know about the store, but anyone that didn't make it under the early preview start was getting horendous download times for the preview event.

tenshi_strife · Aug 30, 2007, 03:09 AM // 03:09

yea they should cause i preordered mine in the store and i already got it so why not put it on the online store....

They've already said multiple times they can't because of legal reasons.
