I'm waiting on my Key from Gamestop but havent recieved it yet!! Anyone else in the same boat? i preordered the collectors edition and 2 day postage total $99.99 from gamestop.com from the UK but have had nothing yet.

As far as i am aware, i have done everything right. There was no mention of restriction to USA only on the site so i am ASSUMING that i can be expecting a key....errr....yesterday.

Bit dissapointed with this game already, as load of other people seem to be gettin on ok.

I pre-ordered at the beginning of december.


Please someone give me a clue!! :confused:

    Did you order before the 7th jan? As i believe this was the cut-off period for beta keys. As for gamestop from teh UK, i wouldnt hold my breath. I;ve tried to order multiple products from there, only to have teh payment go through, then had to call to recieve the news that they do not ship to the UK.

    Why would you bother ordering from an American retailer when there are so many decent UK retailers offering it at the same time? Doesn't make sense to me...

    Because, at the time, Gamestop seem to have centre stage next to two other distributors that i didnt know on the 'Buy Now' screen, we have GameStop here in the UK also, so i just clicked on it. there wasnmt the big list of distributors like there is now.

    Although it shouldnt matter where it comes from tho... an email with a key dosent take 20 hours to arrive.

    Get a key from tentonhammer.com instead?

    I'm not trying to spam, but that's how I solved my gamestop "beta crisis."

    That just seems ridiculous. How on earth can they offer 'x' number of games with the offer of open beta if they can't fulfill that many keys? It's selling under false pretenses.

    You should blame Game Stop for overselling, this is the reason I went with a digital purchase.

    They meant tentonhammer is out of free keys.

    For all those living in Fayetteville, NC. Just go off the phone with the Cross Pointe Shop Ct EB games shop. He said that UPS just delievered the Open Beta game code cards to the store there.

    So the mad rush will be on to get down there and get them.
