Make a Master Account (unless you have one from a previous game) and then you make a 'Warhammer specific' account (for WAR obviously!) (For the Standard version players:) Basically everything is the same except that you START with the Account Management page on 08/15/08. Supposedly you will be able to enter the codes for the special items, OB access and early access to Retail. This doesn't mean OB starts on the 15th. Just that you can make your accounts and (I assume) start downloading the files. The CEs getting into CB is a special' 'perk' they announced last week. My brother got his CE invite and is currently downloading the file. He mentioned that when he set up his Master account that there was a big banner stating that even for the CE CB players, no Open Beta, special item or Early access to retail codes would be accepted until the 15th. Hope this helps someone. |

Yeah it helps a lot actually, so it doesnt matter if you preordered before hand. i might have a look at preordering via amazon.co.uk and if they send out any beta invites. As im currently seeking work (and a new place to stay) i have other things i need to sort out, so not worried either way about getting onto beta. It goes live in 4 weeks time, so whats the big deal eh? |

So I went to the my master account and entered my OB code and it said it was invalid, so I can't get into CB. My CE is an EU version, does it matter? |

I've checked the closed beta site, and still no invite despite the fact that my account clearly says CE edition key active. Are they still inviting Collector Edition players in batches, or should I contact customer support? |

I've got my beta invitation 2 days ago, but it means nothing for me, because 2 days ago they invited 10k players in Australia but do not provide any support, our ISP all have limited monthly download quota so 10GB is not joking, plus the slow speed and error/corrupeted download. People asked if ISP can help them to host the client, there is no harm to them, the torrent now is free to download for everyone anyway, but they seems not to be caring. So what can I say? I have an account but not the client yea. So pointless.

So i feel a little better about not getting my codes, but am still worried some. I did not order CE, but when I put my code in the beta center it came up as a CE code. From what i've read here the SE has to wait a little bit before getting into beta, right? But, if my codes says CE, should i be worried that I haven't recieved any info yet? |

While you might be getting sick of my terrible headlines I hope you still got a fevah for more Beta Invites! OMFG op i love you. I wanted to strangle you, but now i love you. Becuase of you I went back to the site and saw what i quoted above on the herald posted not too long ago. Everyone check your centers. If you pre ordered a ce and entered a code you should have gotten in now or later today. Im in.

Congratulations to all the new beta people. :) As for the download, it should pick up, so do not worry too much. Just leave it on over night. When you start playing, please do your part and bug and feedback everything you can. Help make the game you may be playing the next 2-5+ years awesome! :) |

Pitty we can't even input the CE codes, for those lving in EU of course - like it was said before - the EU site is pretty bad (starting with Flash, to being late in almost everything, etc...) |

I got in!!! Then I downloaded utorrent, sure that I was a mere few hours away from mmo bliss, then...I...cried....... It's now 17 hours later, and I'm only at 50%, so for those of you who didn't get in, take a moment to laugh at OUR pain. |

Calm down. The servers are not even up. You're just excited to play. And that's understandable. You're desire to be the first one to log in is irrational. Would you prefer no torrent, and downloading from mythic at 1kbps? Any idea how much bandwidth all those CE orders are taking? C'mon give em some slack. |
