Entering the key before release...

Well, I ordered the CE and I just entered they key.
While I am not surprised that I don't have access to Nightfall in the campaign box, I am surprised that while they have listed the "extra" slots I now have (I don't actually have access to them yet) they have not listed that the key I entered was a CE key, not even on the confirmation screen.
So for the sake of my worry, if Alex or Gaile is floating around, we won't see anything till Friday midnight, correct, and then those of us who entered the key early will get it listed, right?

Finally I hope the CE problem - if there is one - will be as easy to fix as the CE problem for Prophecies.

i just added my key too.. theres nothing in my manage keys thing and i cant add it again so i guess its added?

thanks.

Wait up Loz, have you bought any extra chars? Reason I ask is because I bought 1 shortly after the extra char's thingy was introduced, and you get 2 extra chars per campaign.
At first I went.....oddness it is telling me I have 3 extra chars, cool its added the 2 for Nightfall and the bonus one for the pre-order, but I don't think that is how it works, I think its the previous campain plus any additionals you have purchased.

same thing happened with me, entered CE and nothing happened
i assume nothing will. not until the game goes officially live anyway


oh and do we still get Varesh mini-pet?

As far as I understand as soon as nightfall goes live you will get your 2/3 extra slots... The keys wont show up either. And yes the weapons too :P

DONT STRESS... there is still a lil waiting to be done boys and girls

You should get everything from nightfall 0:01 PDT Friday morning.
01:01 MST (Not sure about the name)
02:01 CST
03:01 EDT
08:01 GMT

ETC.

you can add the pre-release already, you won't get you char slot yet, but the special items are already available with the /preorder command, I'm wielding the dervish scythe already with my monk and my mesmer

we are talking about ppl who have added teh ce key already (since copies are out now)

pre-release + ce = 3 slots

so in THEORY ppl should have their 3 slots if they have added both keys.
but they dont

and its not coming up in the manage keys box...

Fixed your GMT conversion and added British and Aussie times.

I'm pretty sure that you wont get your +3 slots until the Nightfall servers are "officially" released on friday.

Thanks Alex.

So yay! We'll have some fun here on friday! Anytime on friday I can play GW:NF! I love it!

Actually this is the same thing that happened with Factions. I entered my key in hours before the launch, and it was like it never existed. Good thing everything showed up when Factions opened up^^.


You don't get ANYTHING and you wont see ANYTHING until the game officially launches... don't worry^^.

Actually, now that I think about it is a little strange, I've purchased two slots. I know this for certain. It is saying I have 4 slots *blink* which is what I would have if I added the two from NF. It says NOTHING about the *extra* slot from the pre-order...

Normally I would say that it would be showing 2 or 3 (purchased + pre-order) but it isn't.

My real concern, which obviously didn't come across very well, is that I have the CE. When ADDING the CE key, the "add key" page did not list the campaign as the CE version. (I think with Factions it did.) Neither did it list any of the in-game bonuses (on that page). The in-game bonuses do NOT display in the campaign box, but in the "extras" section. These are not listed here either.

Once again let me state that my concern centres on the fact that AFAIK Factions did list the CE stuff especially on the "add this key screen", my CE for NF has NOT. Perhaps this will all show up in the right place on Friday, however I would like to know if other CE owners have had the SAME thing happen.

FYI: My Prophecies CE didn't work properly either. I had to get the key specially added by support to get my divine aura - after a lot of evidence of purchase was handed over, naturally!
So perhaps you can understand my concern. It is an incovinience to have to go through this. While it did only take 3 days for the matter to be settled, it is a matter that shouldn't have occurred in the first place, and takes up support's time when they could be focussing on other problems.

Lozza, how about factions? What about those slots? It says I've bought 2, those are my factions ones because I have NOT bought any through store.

Bowman, have you added a NF key? If so I'd say this is what has happened: because it can't "add" NF yet, it has "added" two slots, and this will disappear when the NF key is fully added. As the NF key has not been fully added our third pre-order slot has not been logged. Of course this falls apart if Bowman has not added a NF. In fact I would say the thing is bugged if Bowman has not added a NF key. FTR previously my key screen has said two slots (which was what I had bought).

Mine is the same Lady Lozza, I've added my key and nothing is showing to say that I have.

3 additional slots = 2 for Factions and 1 that I bought from the IGS.
Fingers are crossed for Friday.

same here, nothing showed up, so I started worrying. At least I'm not the only one :P

Though not invited, I am joining this worry-party also.

*note to self* dont put in key untill nightfall goes live or this thread gets happier

Same thing happened with the pre release key. No confirmation or indication that it got added to your account whatsoever. It did, but you just couldn't see it. A day later they had a small patch, so that it showed up in your account.

I shouldn't worry about it...
