I just placed order at walmart.com

nightfall + free t-shirt for 49.83
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=5280714

GET COLLECTOR's edition for $10 more, that's a steal. cheapest I can find plus you get a free t-shirt. standard shipping about $4.

Since I'm cheap so I use standard shipping, it saids ill get it between 23th to the 31st =.=''

But if you're willing to pay 10-18 more for second day or next day shipping, it saids you can get it as early as next monday!!!

get your collector's edition early!!!!!

Hey, all,

Just a note to let you know that Guild Wars Nightfall may be on store shelves a day or two early, or may even be shipped out earlier than the 27th, but the servers won't go live until Friday morning, October 27th, at 12:01 PDT (7:01 GMT). Yes, the regular servers will be open, naturally, with access to Tyria and Cantha. But access to Elona will only open at the time given above.

On a side note, I find it rather unsettling that I'm starting to do those time conversions in my personal life: Dinner at 6:30 pm, that's 1:30 GMT; 3:30 CEST...

Yeah, same here... oh well...! I'll just think of it as a $15 character slot (the preorder pack cost me $5)

I wouldn't suggest ordering this from Walmart... I just made an order, did 2-3 day shipping, and when making the order, it said it should arrive between the 23rd and the 25th. However, when I recieved the confirmation email, it said should arrive between 30th and 31st. I checked up on the order, and sure enough, it said 30th and 31st. F*** that. I cancelled shortly after.

I'm starting to realize that pre-ordering anything online is a fiasco. Had numerous problems with Factions, too. Screw it, I'm just gonna check the stores on the 26th, and if I don't find anything, I'll just order from the NCsoft store.

Will we be able to plug our access keys in before that or will we have to keep trying until the servers are open? Would be kind of annoying to have to keep checking if the servers were up by typing in the code over and over. I'd rather just be able to plug it in and then be able to get in once it was open.

Can't wait to see how they responded to our character customization requests.

Having the boxes out early is a smart move. Since you can't get in before Oct 27th anyways there is no reason not to send the Keys out early.

What I don't like is the inequality when it comes to these preorder items. For once in ArenaNet's existence, lets have a consistent preorder program and stop making under the table deals with select retailers.

I'm going to be buying the game on the 28th most likely. no need for me to go through the nailbiting experiance of wondering when the mail will arrive.

out of walmart,SAM's club,gamestop,bestbuy,compusa, and circuit city, someone in my area is bound to have the game on their shelves

Someone recently posted a free overnight shipping code for the game in this forum and as Gaile said the game will probably ship out a few days early. So it should be on time if not early no matter what. If you use that code which was from gamestop, that is.

I got a Factions t-shirt from Gamestop for preordering so I'm hoping they'll have the shirt too... not just Walmart.

Thanks for letting us know the game might be shipping early. I was worried I'd get mine late since the prerelease packages were about 2 weeks late where I live

now I will have to shop at more than one store to find it on the day it comes out, was hoping to only have to go one place, didnt realize that walmart would carry this kind of game......well I need to put gas in the car anyways...........




still unhappy that they might let the prophecy ce people have emote-aura for the nightfall campaign, that makes me ......dont want to spend more on this game than I have already---(didnt get the $5 off the preorder either, hope they will honor it when I come for the ce)........should have gotten them for the dumb factions characters as well .........well never mind, this just makes me NOT want to buy the dumb game now. (and I shouldnt read or type at 3am)

Gaile, does this mean Australia won't have it by the 27th? Last I checked most companies shipped a week early, but most stores don't put it on shelves till the day of, or the day before release - to ensure more remote locations actually HAVE it for release. Non-priority it is ~2 weeks shipping from EU to Australia...

EDIT: AU/NZ conversions: 5pm EST, 4.30pm CST, 2pm WST, 6pm NZ(ST?)

Lozza, I'm told that stock for Australia is on track and the game should be on shelves for the 27th. If anything changes, I'll let you know.

Has anyone's WalMart order shipped yet? I pre-ordered long before the t-shirt deal came out and it still says mine is processing.

If someone purchased the package deal and it actually shipped, I may have to cancel my current order and reorder the package deal just to get it at a more convenient time.

Outpost.com still says its back ordered.

I just don't get why the US distributors are having such a difficult time getting these out when foreign companies don't have an issue with it.

Well, I'd love to be able to pick up a copy earlier then thurs, but it looks like that won't be happening.

I've sworn of walmart... it's not a-net's deal to manufacture or distribute the game and each distributer get's special incentive to large shipments, which is how the distro world is run. Thankfully this isn't looking like it will be a factions fiasco and most everyone that wants a ce will get one :crosses fingers:

I remember that when factions was released we got a access key that worked for 4-5 days so we could play the game before we got the actuall box, which was great since i didnt get the box until 4 days after release.
This time i havent recived any access key from webbhallen tho and im worried that i wont be able to play until after the kick-off event since if they send it on the 27th i wont get it until, at best, the 30th.
Any word on a similar key?

If you put in the shipping the cost will probably add up to the regular price. I don't like ordering it online, so im going to get the Standard Edition for about US$40 if my currency exchange is correct.

will the online store have keys to buy to add Nightfall to existing accounts before the 27th? i think i may do that since i have no use for special dances, extras, or even a box to drool over. btw I still have my Wolfenstein Spear of Destiny box.
