Wow, that's... harsh. I mean, I know Legacy people get a bunch of perks, but I would imagine buying CE at launch would at least mean I get to play on the 'real' date it launches.

You can get the upgrade to the ARR CE and get the in-game items for free due to your original purchase, but the early access is for people who pre-order ARR or are Legacy.

Could be a lot worse. You could have to re-buy the game to play it? XD

Also, updated my other post. Thanks for the info!

Not getting into early access just means you have a few days gap between the end of beta and the official launch where you can't play. That's it.


I've had access since the first Alpha Phase. Also, my character from 1.0 is probably going to get deleted; my highest level on him is 11, needless to say I realized I wasn't getting my money's worth and never came back.

I just assumed that I'd be treated as if I had bought the CE before because I have. CE buyers from 1.0 had early access.

I can't afford pre-ordering. Not in my financial situation.

I just despise falling behind. Meh. Guess I'll be absent for that week.

But you're right. It is indeed very generous of them to offer the client free to all whom came before, and $30 for those who didn't.

Just remember it's not a race, and you'll have plenty of people to help you "catch up" too if you really are concerned about that. Smile As well as there will be plenty of people who are not pre-ordering.

Seriously. Never be afraid to ask me for help. I might not wanna right then, but I'll always be flattered.

Anyone know if you can preorder the Collectors Edition in stores? All the retail links only have standard copies for preorder.


RE: Some New Q&A and Collector's Edition Warning - Nightsha - 06-01-2013

I don't know about any other countries, but I believe that if you live in the U.S. GameStop offers in-store pre-orders of the CE (the promo code will be on your receipt).

The worst is:

For the PS3 pre-order code and product registration, does the PlayStation Store have to be accessed through a PS3 to register?

Yes, registration can only be done using a PS3.
