Any idea where to input the CE CD Key? I checked the account page but didn't see anything for adding a new key. :/

no subs means anyone can pick up and put down whenever for the next 10 years if they wanted to

Oh I know the gist of no subs, but in reality to get anything out of an mmo you need to put time in.

And its a tad expensive for a casual game.

I followed the link on the email sent which says register your key, or something.

Will the digital download from Anet still be available tomorrow? Still no sign of a dispatch confirmation from Play, so if it doesn't get dispatched tomorrow I'm unlikely to receive it for Sat.

I mean the one from the actual box.

yeah, i think there's a link on the email address from when you signed up for a GW2 account on their website.

If you haven't done that, then do so...

Yeah, I went to register.guildwars2.com and managed to screw up and accidentally made a new account (I used the wrong email), and I can't be sure I linked my Hall of Monuments correctly either.

Basically I have to accounts now:

1) Beta code, GW1 account email/linked
2) Retail code, not 100% if they're linked

Sent off a support ticket.

Your stuck for now, i managed to do the same.

It'll be sorted after release of GW2, they will enable you to unlink from previous account and link to the new one.

Well I'm going to miss the headstart at this rate.

You will be fine, just won't be linked to your GW1 account for HOM.

You'll have to use the new login.

Did anyone buy a key from CJS keys back in April. I've had no problems getting into all the beta events but I'm starting to suspect its not actually an 3 day early access key (just a standard day 1 key) and have no way to check this.

So basically, I'll use the new account and still be able to get into the headstart, just that I'll have to wait until they allow you to switch GW1 accounts to get my HoM rewards?

I may have even linked the right one, but we'll see.

Sorry for going on, just a bit mad at myself, haha. So psyched for the 25th.

I did and I got mine refunded and went through the GW2 site instead. CJS sold keys they attained via credit card fraud that weren't even for the correct region, also afaik those keys are disabled for launch.

Cheapest place at the moment?

Yup don't use your old account as that'll only have the Betas and HOM. Where as your new account will actually hold your copy of the game, ie. the 3 day headstart. You will need to log in via your new account, then when they allow unlinking of GW1 accounts to do that and link it to the account with your CE key registered.
