Age of Conan

Good point i ordered from play.co.uk and i get the rhino mount, i assume they will send the boxes out early for people who have pre ordered. Thats only a guess tho, hope i get my extra 3 days or what not

Yeah well i've emailed them and put this up on the official AoC boards too at the hope someone might have some kinda info regarding this. If I dont find out soon i'll give Game a ring.

Problem is im skint atm, but got just enough for AoC + paying for the early access (damn paying for it sucks). This is because im using 2.50 of my reward points at game to knock the price down slightly, which will therefore mean i can JUST pay for it. However at £25 i wont be able to pay for the early access :(

Apprantly if you had preordered it on the online it would have been sent to you in an email. i asked in the store but they dn't have a bloody clue. So no early access for us shop preorders.

Well you guys seen todays announcement?

For EU players we get access to the game on the 17th May like the US preorders, rather than the originally planned 20th May. The game will still launch on 23rd May in the EU however. Also they stated if you put your preorder code in now you get into the Beta I believe it was.

But obviously my order hasn't begun processing nor have I recieved any e-mail with a code from Game yet.

  I've preordered with Game.co.uk as well, and only got confirmation mail about my order, no key, no early access offer, nothing. But it's still 8 days before, theoreticaly, we could start downloading the game (I remember somewhere was stated that early access starts on 14th download, 17th play time for US, 17th and 20th for EU, before it was changed). So I'll wait with this one.

Ive seen something about game.co.uk that they will email people in 10th may... Lets just wait ^^

Call me a pessimist, but this is going to be another bad bit of PR, I can see it now. I hope to god everyone gets their early access codes in time just so we don't have the months of whining on the boards.

***NOT in anyway directed at anyone posting here.

I've only seen Play confirm they are doing early access, no other UK preorder company seems to know anything about it, including Game. Total farce this is.

Here we go guys! Found it on the site, its actually a bitch to reach and isnt clear. Have to go onto PC, then the AoC banner, then the Preorder Early Access link. Also its confirmed today, as stated earlier, the Early Access will begin on May 17th for the EU along with the US :)

Customers who pre-order Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures before the 10th of May will have the opportunity to access the game three days early!

This three-day early access to Age of Conan will be available giving eager MMO gamers the chance to be one of the first to explore the rich online world of Hyboria. It will also include an additional seven days of access, making this a great-value ten day starter.

We will email all pre-order customers on May 10th with a unique Key Code. The email will direct you to a website where you can use your code to register for the early access and download the client and directions on how to use it. Please Note: The download client will cost 5 Euros. Once you have registered and downloaded the client you just need to wait for the gates to open on May 20th, three days before Age of Conan launches on May 23rd.

Those who do not wish to undertake this great offer can still purchase and play Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures as usual on the day of launch. Those wishing to use their Key Codes will need to do so before the launch date in order to take advantage of the early access and subsequent 10 day playtime.
