ppl are saying there is only 1 collector edition so Amazon should also get the bonus for beta and headstart, but need confirmation on this.

ok, I'll bite.  What's the difference between preordering and "official" preordering?

Usually it's a like 3 day head start before the game goes retail.

So if the Sept 1st release date is right on the 29th of Aug you could log and start playing then.

This is a tough one for me.  I hate paying for a game that I haven't been able to try, however of all of the mmo releases in the last couple of years, this one does seem the most promising.  I just don't know if I can get myself to put down that kind of money up front.

I have called amazon on the phone and found out that - If I order Aion Collector's Edition, they will e-mail me a BETA key which will allow me to get into the preview.

I have ordered  the Collector's Edition and now awaiting for BETA key to arrive in my e-mail *tick tock tick tock*

Great thread, thanks for the heads up........

 

Just wondering about those who played Tabula Rasa and got this email from NCsoft on closure of the game :

In addition, you will receive another email in 2009 with details on how to gain access to the following:

* Aion: The Tower of Eternity Exclusive Preview (available in 2009)
* Aion: The Tower of Eternity pre-order (available in 2009)
* One free month of Aion: The Tower of Eternity, including digital client (available in 2009)

I mean do i pre-order or wait for my  (what seems to be) free digital client?

Hi Cag, I am also one of those people.You will probably just have new serial keys available in your Play Nc account information once it becomes possible to use them.

If you get it from the store like gamestop or EB they will give you a pre-order box that have the beta key inside.  If you order from amazon and the like then they will E-Mail you the beta key.

When the retail box arrives in the store (gamestop or EB) they will call you to come pick it up. Amazon will mail it to you.

You should wait then, I'm sure you will get a chance to try it out over the next few months.

So, Amazon e-mails it? That's fine with me :P As long as they really do give beat keys.
