they didn't want to promise something they couldn't deliver.

I can't believe people are bitching about this!

Exactly, im pretty sure this is last minute Idea. face it they have been working on factions for a long time and they needed to get it done, once it was done they were able to sit down and think of what special stuff they could do.

I'm guessing you ordered it before the FPE, after the event they stopped sending keys via e-mail.

Why would I have a good idea about what to do? I've had absolutely no experience in ordering Guild Wars and it's pre-order package. I bought Prophecies some time after it's release, until a week ago I didn't even know the Prophecies had a pre-order package.

And true, I made the wrong choice, but I'm only learning from it. Next time I'm ordering when I'm absolutely sure where to order and when.

by your crazy logic then, its amarketing ploy that they made a game called factions and want you to play it

a ploy is a trick theyd pull on you to buy the game, and seeing they are just stating this now, instead of a while ago, which would have given people more time to know about it, I can say its not a damn ploy

"oh no, they are putting fun stuff in the game that makes me want to play, those basterds, why cant they be like other companies and give us nothing special at all, then I can have a mediocre feeling for the game I just bought"

I preordered GWF after the Factions event, and my ishop has sent me the a key which gave me the preorder items, key for the Faction Event for myself and a "friend"( which wasn't much use for me, as I've GW Prophecies) AND the ability to participate in the Head Start (i.e. play 24h before no-preorders).

So I guess there is something deeply wrong with some online shops...

So, because I haven't ordered my pre-order copy of factions from those three (american) sites I can't take part in this? What a jip.

(speaking of which, I got my pre-order items key a while ago, but I'm yet to get my copy of factions or play-early key for chapter 2 from the site I bought it off [gameseek.co.uk] so blah.)

Hmmm, GAME told me companys weren't sending codes via email after the FPE anymore. Reason #347 not to order at GAME.

No your getting this wrong, there is only one pre order key. It gives you the pre order weapons, and it lets you play at head start.

the sites they listed are just some of the american retailers that have pre orders.

You have the pre order key, you are set.

it would make no sense to have it canthans only, cause then alot of people wouldnt be able to do it.
This is incorrect. In the most recent chat with Gaile you will get your bonus 2 slots during the preview event but you must add a retail key to your account within 10 days or the extra slots and cathan become inaccessable.
