We'll have to wait for GOA to get the account center up which is still on an unknown time-frame.

it will probably be at the last minute... lets hope alot of the EU codes arent dodgy or misprinted like the american ones which some even have 1 more digit than they should :twak:

One of my points for why I can't understand why the center isn't up yet, because this could potentially cut far into peoples time in the game, if situations arise.
Better to validate the codes in good time......

Well its now less than 2 weeks until open beta is due to start, and still no download or account center as of yet. At this rate i won't be able to download the client in time. Living in the middle of nowhere with a 1.5 meg connection aint good. Will take me at 150k/s a long time to download if i leave it all day and night.

GOA please pull ur thumb out and get it sorted!!!

Well GOA state that you can get pre-order boxes from game retailers this Thursday so if anything will happen hopefully it will be then.

If not then happy times are ahead.

I'm on 1.5mb and it took me a night to grab the CB client. Stop moaning you'll have it in time if they start it in the first week like they said they will.

It took me way longer to install it than to download it :)

My brother has 1mbit and he downloads with 100k/s. He managed to download the beta client in 24hours.
The game hasn't even started and we already start to scream and whine. I imagine what will happen with the release...

Well actually the print quality of the codes on my box suck. As if it was printed on a 50 year old printer :p

thats just the acknowledgment / verification of the order, not the codes themselfs..

Hmmm

I am not talking for the receipt that party posted but for the codes inside my box.

As with Daoc i can see the pros and cons of all this. But the biggest pro we have is:
If nothing else, GOA had now enough time to prepare for all the problems US had, so if we go by hope, i hope they DO prepare :)

Have we actually had any real announcement on when we WILL be able to put in our codes? Seeing as they already can in the US (I'm sure I read that and didn't imagine it) it can't be too long now can it?

The account page will be open from the first week in September, in time for the Open Beta. On Thursday we'll be announcing all the details for the Standard Edition Pre-order program including the list of partners.

Having said that, those codes inside the pre-order box have a massive error. Apparently, where the code has an 'O' (the letter) it is meant to be a 'Q'. The details get a bit vague as regards '0' (zero)...

P.S. Greetings go out to my fellow Hellenes! :D

What about the Collectors Edition Pre-orders? Will we simply register in the same place the same way?

Can you give any source on that? Though having checked my codes I seem to be lucky in that there are no O's or Q's, and only 4 0's
