Has anyone recieved the "email" that was supposed to go out to all the closed beta participants, the CE preorders, and the first 50,000 SE preorders to enter their codes regarding preview weekend, or are there more planning on going out tomarrow?

Thanks

I got mine yesterday alot of people got there's monday.  There was a thread on this a while ago but its probably 10 pages back.  If you dont' get an invite by Friday then you won't get one (or your email address was wrong so check your account it'll list you as "Preview Weekend' enabled).  You don't need to confirm the email so if your email gets lost don't fret over it just check your account.

Don't complain if your SE pre order and you didn't get in...Originally they weren't going to let SE pre orders into Preview Weekend at all so the 50k Limit is kinda like a nice bonus chance that wasn't a part of the original deal.

I did get my e-mail however it was quite late.

Check you're account in the Mythic account center and if it says WAR Preview you are in.

I got mine late morning. I expect you will be seeing them through tomorrow and frankly it wouldnt suprise me if some people get them after it starts. So long as you have the client downloaded I would just suggest trying to log into the game when they say the PW servers are up. Some may get in and not recieve emails much like with beta.

There might be another patch. Dont think anyone really knows that yet but it did tell the CB testers to just run the patcher no need to download a new client. That tells me at least us CB testers may have a minor patch.

Thats not good. My account doesnt say that but I got the email. Maybe since I have the CE though it wont show WAR Preview. *Shrug* if for some reason I'm not able to get in I will just email them and they will fix it. There customer support seems to be quick.

 Enabled
Open Beta
Head Start
Preorder
WAR Preview

 

That is what mine says with a SE pre-order from Amazon. I never did get an email about this weekend though. The only thing that I got is the news letter. I will have wait until this weekend to see if I really did make the cut.

Mythic has not yet sent me the WAR Preview email but only got my codes from EA Store (Grrrr!) after ONE MONTH of waiting, so I was only able to add the codes on Monday.

Mythic did okay though -- wasn't their fault -- and they flagged my account immediately with Open Beta and Head Start -- and after 48 hours with WAR Preview.

Got the game downloaded last night in the wee hours.  No waiting, no cue, the DL started immediately and was very fast considering it was 10GB.

So -- everything is looking good.
