now it just up to 72 minutes, requesting my money back from d2d, will never buy from them again.

Did you play in Beta?  If you did then you dont need to download the full client again.

A queue to download a file you paid for ?!?!?!  What kind of BS service is that ?

I pre-ordered through Direct2Drive and I can't play till tomorrow it seems.

I am thanking god right now for direct to drive and that is something else since im an atheist lol. Anyway I had originally preordered the game from ebgames here in town a few weeks back, they didnt have any code sin at the time. I am guessing from employees stealing them. They told me we will call you we should get more in soon. I wait till this past sunday and still nothing so I call them. They tell me they wont be getting any more in, so I ask about getting  a refund so that i can buy somewhere that has a code. The guy on the phone sounds like this insults him or something and proceeds to tell me how I wont be able to get a code anyplace its not possible, he then proceds to tell me the code isnt even all that important that all they give you is beta access and that beta is over, I was like umm what about the in game item and the head start, he looked confused like he had no clue about those. I finally get my money back leave the store and within 30 min of getting home I have placed my pre order from direct to drive as well as already received my codes in my email. Thanks D2D I plan to use you in the future, im not sure If I will ever go back to ebgames.

Ive been trying to order the game from Direct2drive.co.uk all yesterday since 10am GMT and everytime i click to complete the transaction it just keeps saying:

"Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning UK (Pre-Order) was removed from your cart due to : Country restricted."

On the main pages it says "Limited number of keys left avaliable".

And i know its not just me because my friend tried as well and it said the exact same thing for him. I mean, if there are no places left, why do Direct2drive still advertise it as a pre-order item????

Just imagine how many other people are trying to download the same thing you are.  Glad I bought and already downloaded mine a little over a week ago.   I would expect a queue to happen, how about you plan ahead next time and don't download a game that is so close to realeasing.   Just an idea.

I bought from D2D, the normal preorder version, and I downloaded the Beta clent.

So my question is... When the preorder goes live on the 16th will the Beta client patch up to the retail version or do i have to download a whole new retail version?

D2D is Fileplanet realy, Ive used it for years and always worked great. When a popular game comes out it always has line. If you notice though it does have the links to fileplanets websites. Thats why I said it uses fileplanets servers to download from!

Could be wrong :)

And I downloaded the preview weekend rvr then I had to download the open beta one which should patch to retail.

Hi there guys :)

Just wanted to let you know the version off of http://www.direct2drive.com is the SE version (Standard Edition) and not the CE version (Collectors Edition)

You will have to wait until Tuesday, September, 16 in order to get into the game headstart.

I don't know what time it will start on the 16th, but they said it would be sometime in the morning. So I doubt it will be at 12:01am and most likely be at 7am.

The reason why I say this is, because the lasttime they said that with open beta it ended up being at 7am. So I'm assuming they are going by the same guidelines again because thier work schedule seems to start 6 - 7am in the morning. I could be wrong though

Cheers,

The SE early start begins at 7:00 a.m. Central Standard Time.  That is unless there are delays.  Otherwise, everyone go and get a decent night sleep and get ready to roll.  Also, if you pre-ordered from D2D and played in beta then you will download a small patch tomorrow that will update you to retail.  If you've tried logging into your beta client it won't authorize your log in.  Tomorrow, if you put your codes into your Warhammer account then when you log in your log in will authorize, you'll download the patch and voila' you're in the game.  D2D kicks ass btw as I have never had problems pre-ordering games from them.  When the AoC madness went on with their head start I went to D2D, pre-ordered the game the weekend before the release, got my codes and laughed all the way through the early release (until I realized the game sucked donkey balls) ---> 

anyone able to download the damn file off fileplanet??? i am getting stuck at 9.32 GB out of 9.34.. keeps giving me a "Failed File Verification" error....
