I Live In the UK, so therefore i will pre-order from a UK site. I, however play on the American Server. Will this effect anything? The UK preorder code will still be accepted by my game, right? Will I be automatically switched back to EURO server? If so do my 5 server switches get redeemed?? I am totally out of switches and would like some for if i ever want change again.
Thanks for the input,

Any chance that we will be given a temp slot for the beta if we preorder and add the preorder key to our account? Since we are suposed to be getting extra slots for chap 2, why cant one be opened at least for the beta for us with four charactors. Yes I know about the whole extra account, but as others have said, some of us want to have everything on our main account. Its not fair that we miss out because we have a full set of charactors. I personally like being able to save my name, and image for when I start chapter 2.
And is there any news on if the preorder items are store relient? I would like to know before I buy one.

I think this is very nice.
During Faction PvP event, few of my friends wanted to test PvE component of Guild Wars. They really enjoyed PvP though...but unable(or not knowing) to unlock team arena was little disappointing(my friends and I were stuck with battling AIs; and got bored after awhile...we wanted to battle with real people).
Anyways, being able to invite three of my friends, I have few friends in my mind whom I really want to play with. Thanks ArenaNet for creating this kind of opportunity ^^

I have two accounts one of which is the regular edition and the other the collector's edition.
If I purchase two collector's edition versions of GWF, will I get glowing hands with both accounts?
(I know the question is kinda ridiculous, but I like my glowing hands) :P

I'd love to pre-order it BUT all those sites I've been visiting don't deliver it to Macau!!! Same as for the first chapter.... Guess I'll be obliged to wait weeks before getting a copy here... That's if I harrass them shops everyday...
maraxusofk

I never preordered anything. If I was to preorder from a store, will I get the actual game box with stuff inside? I'm old-fashioned, I like to have those.

I'm still confused...if the Pre-Orders don't come out till the 28th, how is it I pre-ordered from EB games weeks ago...how does that work?
Does that mean that the Pre-Orders arrive on the 28th to be given out, but you could order them earlier?
Or does it means I pre-ordered something that wasn't the pre-order package?

I cannot wait til it starts. It looks like it's going to be awesome! As for preordering, I'm doing it. I trust the stores and I need the account key. (full account)

I can't wait to try out the Necro elite summon,and the other elites that are going to be added. Hopefully, ANet buffed some of the assassin's lame elites.

I wonder how many distribution center clerks will stuff one of the games down their pants and be playing it before anyone else even gets their copy. LOL You do know distribution centers get the games before retail merchants? (smile) And then one has to wonder, who's game will it be that they stuffed down their pants. Will it be yours or yours or maybe even yours!! hehe

I also pre-ordered from EB Games, but that was done in person, and when they call me to let me know the game did come in I will be going to the store in person to pick it up. I do not like to order or pre-order on line at all. I hope this answered your question.

OK, I now have a little more information on the European preorders that I can share:
* For anyone who *does not* have an original Prophecies campaign account, there will be online preorders available from 3rd March that will include a key granting access to the FPE and the preorder items.
* For everyone else, our preorder box will be available in stores from 31st March. The key in this box will give you access to the preorder items, and there are a few other things in the box.
For both of the above, I don't yet know which stores will be participating. I'll let you know as soon as I do .

Any info on what the difference will be between the Collectors Edition and the Pre-order? I can't decide if I should pre-order or wait for a Collector's Edition...

i think alex means that unless you pre-order from a store that is getting the PreOrderPacks, you wont be able to get the freebiees and the froob trial for a friend that come with the pack...
(the reason i was asking for a list of the pre-order-pack stockists n the uk....if the store i already pre-ordered from is getting them, since i think so far im the frist person in that store to even order a copy of factions ^^ im sure i can persuade them to let me have one preOrder pack *since i preordered both normal and CE, they would get 2 packs and can have the other one back heheh* i can be pretty persuasive )
*edit* when he says Zero-overlap....means that the free stuff that comes in a preOrderPack is not connected to collectors edition, wont clash with and will not cause problems with....like getting a pair of rabbit ears in the CE and getting a pointy hat in the PrePack....
