Got called up today even though I ordered my collectors edition months ago to be told that HMW supplier are not supplying them with ANY CE at all - I even ordered one in stall a few months ago to ensure i got a CE - I am really gutted :-( - anyone else ordered from HMW for a CE?
 
Damn man - unlucky. I was close to doing it myself when walking past hmv in oxford street ages ago. Only reason i didnt was the cost - in the end i just pre-ordered normal edition from play.com and they emailed me my early access codes. Just had to download and install the open beta client which then patched itself to full release and enter the early access code.

Soz to hear your woes - just buy the normal one now unless you really WANT CE. Also - get your mates who are playing to reserve your name for you by setting up a toon with the name of your choice. They can just delete it when you get your game.
 
dont worry about it, you arent missing out on anything, there are so many bugs, graphical errors, weird frame rates, lag, monsters being stuck on npc's and so forth, it wont be fixed for a while.

you must be playing a different game to me ,my experience
is all good at the moment
 
Competitor in the second post?

@ OP that's harsh, one of the main reasons to buy discs as opposed to just downloading is for Collectors Editions. You get to play the game early with it as well don't you?

Just to chorus what others have said, you must be playing a different game to me then.
 
Happend to me but with a different game last year (WoW expansion CE), they informed me 3 days before the release date, avoided them ever since
 
that better not be true because i went into their eastbourne branch today to make sure it was gonna be there on thursday. He said he couldn't guarantee it be there on the day but my name was defo down for a copy.

There are rumors floating about that they arent even DOING a ce release in europe after the BC:CE fiasco!

No retailers have been given information about it and no blizz employee has confirmed that a euro release is happening. Shocking if true.

no, im thinking of warhammer online mate.

its broken, there are numerous forum posts on warhammeralliance, characters appear next to you without completing the correct pathing, melee characters (opposing faction) following you up roofs without jumping aslong as they target you and hold an action. choppyness with actions based on the engine itself rather then the FPS. just because you or anyone else cant see them doesn't mean they aren't there, you shoulda gone to specsavers.

Nope, experienced none of that myself. Perhaps the guys who do should get off 56k and upgrade their celeron.
 
Nope don't need glasses here, well that's what i was told a few weeks back after an eye test. I guess maybe my pc and connection are good enough to run the game, not my fault others are on celerons and dialup and expect the same standard of gameplay.

It's maxed out at 1900x1200 and runs very smoothly, until the big battles start then it slows a little depending on how many i've got on my screen.

Must admit, I havent experienced any of that myself either. Not saying its not there or happening, but even in the 7 months I was in beta I didnt really have stuff like that happening. Maybe I am just a really lucky person or something.
 
Had some minor issues with being right next to a mob and being told that I'm out of range, but me running off seemed to reset the mob and all was well. Sometimes when i pull a mob it sort of stutters a little before legging it towards me, but its not game breaking :p
 
I’m not saying there are zero bugs, I’d be surprised if there were. But judging on the number of people playing here and all the comments it would seem there are very few, and they certainly don’t seem to be ruining anyone’s enjoyment. I haven’t come across any problems myself and am loving the game.

But hey, if you’ve read on some forums that its all rubbish then that must be right, I always think its best if people who’ve actually played something give their opinions though.
