preorder & mounts

diavolos · 03-31-2008, 12:28 AM

Greetings,

I was wondering in what form the 3-days headstart some shops offer will be. I mean, we will be able to download the game 3 days earlier or the shop will ship the game 3 days earlier?

Thanks

You will be able to download and patch prior to the three day headstart then when the headstart goes live your account will be able to login.

If we preordered in a physical store, how are the 3 day access codes handled? I'm assuming it would be a card like most other games.

If you ordered from Gamestop, yes. They plan to hand out rave cards with pre-oreder codes. When they will start handing them out not sure. My local store manager said to call them begining May 1, 2008.

Nice I asked my local GameStop and I was told that game came out May 21st and there was no pre order bounus. Strange but no stranger no fact they sell Wii games, but don't sell Wii.

I have my Headstart with mount card now. Gamestop called me up before GTA4 launched. So I picked it up when I picked GTA4 at Midnight. I won't be using the headstart though I just wanted to make sure I got my mount. Plus I do believe that you will need a credit card for the 3day headstart. I think it's like 5.00 or something. I pre-ordered the 60-day card, Guid book and game so I'm all set with a little 3 day start. I am in a guild so this is a non issue for me and my crew,,,lol

I understand the early start is capped at level 20

Is this just level 20 for the first three days (the $5.00 fee gives a total of 10 days play) or until we receive our box-sets and can enter the full product code?

I only ask as i'm unlikely to receive the actual box until a week after official release due to the ridiculous shipping time....

i think its just untill launch on the 20th
