Pre-Order Codes Question

blake93

When i preorder from ebgames on the internet and select normal shipping (which takes 5-10 days) does the pre start code allow me to play when the servers actually go live and the prestart is over , or do i have to wait for my game to arrive at my house and use the code in the box. thanks

Yea can play for a few days after it's released, then you'll have to enter your game key. You should get your game within the time they give (4 days I believe), pre-orders are normally dispatched earlier than the release date.

I would like to know the answer to this exact same question.

To my knowledge I haven't seen anything directly from Mythic that says "You have X days to play before you need to enter the retail code." With Age of Conan they gave plenty of time to enter retail codes... I hope it's the same here.

Can anyone show us a link where Mythic says how long we have to play using the preorder codes?

Doesn't say number of days, but from http://www.warhammeronline.com/faq/index.php#ans4h

 

Do I need my WAR Product Key the day the game launches?

While we encourage you to get your WAR product key as soon as possible, we will provide a reasonable grace period for players to get a hold of their copies and have uninterrupted service following the Live Game Head Start.
