Nolan Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Haha yeah, I work at GAME. We do indeed, which was odd, the boxes they came in even had 'DO NOT SELL UNTIL 7/12' stickers on them like CoD did. Thought it was a bit excessive! Wait, 7.....you silly Europeans with your month coming after the day when writing the date. I was about to question why the game wasn't being sold until the 12th 5 days after it releases here, then I realized. Still rather dumb that you can't sell retail copies of the game considering you can buy it online and download it immediately, irrelevant of not being able to play until the servers are live.
Ramar Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 No sign of parcelfarce so far. Same, quite annoyed considering I didn't pay for parcelforce, I selected free delivery.
ShadowV7 Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 In regards to the GAME CE, i've read a few things so far. Some being they won't be here till tomorrow, when they sent the dispatch e-mail, they hadn't actually been picked up by Parcel Force(which they defaulted orders to) and was only picked up at the weekend/today/not yet. And some terms in an email stated if it was sent on Friday, something about arriving on Tuesday. It's pretty all over the place. I've had to go for ugly digital since i'm house bound again.
ShavenWolf Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Yeah, mine standard version was dispatched on Friday, but it didn't arrive today. We've not had that much post though, just because of the snow. I'm hoping it's on my doormat when I get home from work tomorrow though...
Ramar Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 My post hasn't been interrupted at all, just GAME being arse whipes. What with the hassle I had with the price changing of the CE and now this I think I'll take my service elsewhere in future. That is after I've redeemed various vouchers and points they've sent my way as apologies for my angry emails.
nightwolf Posted December 6, 2010 Author Posted December 6, 2010 I'm that bothered that I can't get this that I'm trading in some of my games to get it. Will have.
gmac Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 picked up a copy for me and my brother in town today, account is all ready for 11pm tonight!
Ramar Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 picked up a copy for me and my brother in town today, account is all ready for 11pm tonight! /jealous Enjoy!
ShavenWolf Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 DAYUMMMMM Stormwind is busy tonight. Must be something going on or summat.
ShadowV7 Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Yep, on vent with the guild cursing at the ones already on and crying with the others who won't even reach 'Success'. It's like the lottery.
nightwolf Posted December 6, 2010 Author Posted December 6, 2010 It's making me laugh, given I can't buy WoW til tomorrow, it amuses me that people didn't realise this would happen.
ShadowV7 Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Never really happened before. With WotLK I was on and handing in quests pretty much instantly. This is just really bad
Ramar Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 There's always an influx of people it's part of the fun. Though I must admit I'm quite enjoying missing the hassle of it all.
UziT Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) There's always an influx of people it's part of the fun. Though I must admit I'm quite enjoying missing the hassle of it all. Same! Wotlk was smoooth, went to howling fjord, killed some wolfs and loved it. <3 Bring on tomorrow! (Hopefully game is stable) Edited December 7, 2010 by UziT
nightwolf Posted December 7, 2010 Author Posted December 7, 2010 Never really happened before. With WotLK I was on and handing in quests pretty much instantly. This is just really bad It was more that with WOTLK it was far easier to see what would happen, with this it seemed inevitable that something like this was bound to happen. As it is I'm hoping you guys get in and have fun, I shall be around tomorrow.
Ramar Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 CE arrived a few minutes ago. Glad it's finally turned up, but it arrived at the wrong time. I've errands to be doing this morning. I can't win. :P
UziT Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Got mine at 10 and went back to bed, have a nasty sore throat boo!
Ramar Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Just done a few quests at the new underwater place, so far I'm really enjoying it.
Goafer Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Mine showed up today. The collectors edition is huge.
ShavenWolf Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Royal Mail are massive vaginas where I live. I've not had any post this past week because of the snow, but somehow small girls can still deliver the local paper on time. Wtf? Man the fuck up, Royal Mail. So, no, I didn't get it today.
Goafer Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Managed to sign in a minute ago and got a decent connection too. I was expecting it to be a nightmare. Having my Night Elf hunter changed to a Goblin. Quite like hunters but was never enthralled by the Night Elves. I quite like the look of Goblins so it seemed the logical choice. Plus it gives me a chance to check out the Horde (never liked any of their races before).
Ramar Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 I'm not liking how linear the questing is at the minute.
Dyson Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Attn: All I'm starting a new Draenai Paladin on Magtheridon with a friend from work. If you lot are still interested in getting together a small band of N-E players then let's hop on there and smash it up. So far I'm playing as a Pala, my mate is playing Priest, would be cool if we got a good mix Once again add my Real ID of splan160 @ hotmail.com and we'll get together!
