With all the info coming out and the Day of the Tengu event (still not listed on the EU GW Site), I thought I'd just check to see what I'm authorised to play... and Early Access for Factions isn't listed

The only Early Access is the Prophecies one - according to the email I got, the Factions lasts 2 days (24-26th) and this isn't shown. Does this mean I haven't got the Early Access even though I have the Factions Preorder items (same key according to the email).

Um... it does show under "You have added the following extra features to your account:"

"Early Access Event"

And the Factions one is that you get on at 12:01 PST on April 27th (24 to 26th is wrong)

OK - just confusing as the Propechies was the same date and times (and exactly the same message)...

Thats my key box, i dont see any early access there, even tho i have 2 factions pre-order keys, one that shows in that box, and another one i got with the CE that i cant add as it says i already have a key of that description added.
Both keys say i should be able to attend the 24hr headstart, but i dont see any early access listed there.

Im guessing it means that they just forgot to add it this time. just report it to anet. Im just about 100% sure that as long as you have the preorder key on there you get the early access, even if it only says pre order items..

or it might not be on there becuase its the exact time and date as the last preview, and the way it might be programd, it might just think that the 2 headstarts are the same thing as far as listing it goes.

Would've thought (hoped) it show the Early Access Event - otherwise it'd be confusing (like it seems to be atm

)

Gaile said that the headstart would not be displayed this time, but it would be there, if you entered your preorder key. I guess they decided to do it this way, because the headstart is a temporary thing, whereas the preorder items are not. OP: The last line tells you that you'll be in Cantha on 27th.
