    I've had my CE edition codes for a few weeks now (Orderd from Play.com).

     

    I can't belive we aint getting information about open beta etc.  Why the hell do we brits and EU lot always get shat on!

    Who the hell's idea was it to use GOA anyway ? They are French and we all know that WAR + The French = (insert world war joke here).

     

    I'm going to be really upset that I paid extra cash for sod bloody all!

    It's funny, their Customer Services insisted that every purchase of the pre-order pack was associated with an order against a fixed number of packs allocated to HMV & that the only way i wouldn't get my copy would be if Mythic's distrubutors reduced their allocation at the last minute.

    I'm not convinced at all & think that I just paid £10 for a piece of paper entitling me to early access & some bonus items, which all things considered probably isn't that bad a deal.

    I'll let you know what they say tomorrow when I get my call from the 'King of Games' at my local HMV.

    I got a curious question. Arent you screwing yourselves playing on NA servers from EU anyway due to latency? Split second decisions mean everything in PvP and that guy with 150 less ping is surely got the advantage.

    To be honest I would be happy enough just to get a flavour of what the released game will be like.

    Was never a problem with Lineage2 , SWG, COH. Might be a problem for FPS games but then sometimes it also helps :p

    Usually only an issue on FPS games..  plus this is RvR combat not PvP duels..  strategy counts more than twiching.
