Rhino Mount

Does anyone know where you would have to pre order from to get the Rhino mount?  Been searching a few sites but haven't got any official confirmation on this.  Thanks.

    Yeah, I haven't been able to get any confirmation on this.  I had heard that best buy was the Rhino, but no confirmation.

    For the 3 day early access will i have to re-install the game when i get my box? Or just register key code of the boxed version?

    you may only get the Rhino by going IN STORE.

     

    Please call your local best buy.  It has been confirmed as I have 3 copies of the preorder box.  Best Buy will not be offering it online.

    do you have to preorder the collectors ed. for the mounts and other things or can you just dish out the cash when they come in?

    The ring and cape come with the CE nothing to do with pre-order bonus.

    If someone had came up to me in 1980 when I was on my Atari 2600 and said we will be playing games with thousands of people at the same time.I guess my response would have been,"but I only have 2 joysticks"

    ok, some places are giving certain things, but can you confirm that this is preorder only and not just collector's edition?

    That just plain silly, this is 2008 not 1998....

    I absolutly despise going into stores and buying things like this..Mainly due to it being such a freaking hassle and noone knowing anything about Pre-Orders.. Usual they have to go in the back and ask a Manager who then has to dig around the back and find them. 

    Can I atleast order it online for a instore pick up?...Sheesh.

    The CE comes with the ring and cape,the mounts are getting given for pre-order copies of the game,here in Europe they only come with the pre-order normal edtion not the CE.

    that stinks, I usually like to let a game be out for a while before buying it, never pre-ordered a single game in my life.   However, this game seems like it will be gobs and gobs of fun, and I want one of the mounts. This seems like it will be a huge advantage for new chars, especially because for now the only way to get the special smashy mounts is to preorder.

    You will still get to have the mounts ingame.

    1st you cant use the mounts till lvl 40 and 2nd come level 40 the rhino and mammoth will either be for sale or some sort of quest.

    True. Anyone can get a mammoth and/or rhino in game, the promotion "War" mammoths and rhinos are only cosmetically diffrent from those anyone can get. So there is no advantage (other than the war mounts are free to those entitled to them, and the standards are presumably not free).

     

    Also, noone can use any of these mounts until level 40, so even pre-orders don't get them rigt off the bat.

    Also I have a hunch just because they are giving these things away that we're all going to get in game and realize that what we REALLY want is some other type of combat mount altogether which will inevitable cost a fortune.

    oh, that makes sense I suppose.  Now the only consideration is whether the ring and cloak are worth anything, unless the mounts are extremely expensive and you would be saving considerable time by having a free one.

    You don't have to buy in-store to get the Rhino:

    I pre-ordered with Play.com in Europe, we get a Rhino mount.

    I just wanted to add that being able to ride a rhino is what made me interested in this game in the first place.

    If I do buy the game, I will definitely play at least to the point that I have a rhino to ride around on.
