Pre-Order Question! Hooray beer!

I'm loving this stress test, so I can only imagine how much I will like the finished product.. anyway, I'm going to pre-order next week and was curious if my option between $9.99 and $199 comes at the end of the first month of released play or am I prompted to decide this sometime sooner?

Thanks.. look forward to gaming with you in this new world!

    If you preorder you have to decide if you want to take advantage of their onetime lifetimeoffer or cheap fees BEFORE the official release 24 april.



    Hmm or maybe it's before you login.

    Can't remember 100% but i think it's before the official release.



    No matter what am i going for the lifetime offer.

    It's dirtcheap because this game will be around for atleast 5 years.

    hehe that's a promise ;)

    That is not true at all.  You choose your subscription plan when it is time for you to subscribe.  Turbine has stated time and time again that you get to use all of beta and your first 30 free days up before you have to decided which subscription plan you want.  So May 24th would be the earliest you have to decide.

    Hmm, reading the info on the preorder pamphlet, seems to me if you wait until May 24, 2007 you'll be pushing it. If you have the preorder disk and the pamphlet that comes with it, read section 3, item B. The last lines state the Founders offer is no longer valid after 30 days past launch.

    Either way I'm with the group that is solidifying my payment before that. Only too much headache will fall on those who take it to the last moment and then decide they like it and want the FC payment but they couldn't sign up for it cause they had a doctor's appointment that day or work sent them out of the city for two weeks unexpectedly and they forgot to choose.

    Ooh.. I don't have the pamphlet.  But is that going to be sent to me right away when I preorder?

    I was looking at the preorder sites and couldnt figure that out, if it was coming now or coming later upon release.

    I also called locally and noone seems to have a copy of any preorder boxes..

     

    btw, thanks for the replies guys!

    I got my 3 copies at the local Gamestop (well, not really local, it's one city over b/c I refuse to go to the local ones b/c they are all morons...breathe.....breathe...). So anyway, I got my preorder disks this past week so I know the Gamestops in the Dallas, TX area should have them. Come with a disk with the beta client and your Founders Club key code. I don't know if you get a pamphlet if you order online, but maybe you get an email with the info?

    I'm slapping down my $199 right away as well.  I've played enough beta to know I've found my new home.

    I'm actually thinking I might too.  I've been having a great time in game.
