Let's pretend we haven't seen this latest and greatest leaked beta video (ranger)...

Would you pre-order the game?

I've already decided to buy collector's edition few days ago, but I'm curious for the rest of you guys. Plenty of people saying that they're pre-ordering now that they have seen it.

I havent seen the video, but I was always going to pre-order anyway. However, I've cancelled my pre-order of the standard edition because I really like the look of the collectors edition, but I cant find a good supplier of it in the UK :-(

Yes of course I would. I have total faith that AoC will be an awesome game.

If you're going to stick it out there, don't be afraid if you get it cut off.

I was glad to see the video, but it didn't influence my decision.  I've decided not to pre-order and I'll probably be waiting a month or two after release to ensure that AoC is everything I hope it will be.  I've just been let down too much by recent MMOs to pre-order another one ever again:)  Damn you TB and VSoH!  But for those of you who do pre-order please stay active on the forums so that us who are waiting will know how the game is going.

I was originally rooting for WAR, that was until I saw that AoC ranger vid! The combat looks fluid and enticing and it hasn't even been polished yet... That's got to say something. Pre-ordered my CE not even 5 mins ago

To wank, or not to wank. The ultimate MMO sacrifice.

In general I don't pre-order anything. Ever.  I figure that I'll wait till it drops then ask around and see what people thing of it.  If the game is doing well I'll probably buy it, if it's 50/50 I'll buy it and see for myself and be the judge.  If it does poorly I'll find out why and then ultimately base my decision on whatever information I can find.

Pre-ordering as well as waiting in line for anything for more then 5 minutes is just beyond me.  Never understood those people.

No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

I've literally lost sleep after watching that ranger video. I couldn't stop thinking of character names. Uggh! I'm such a dork :( I'm so stoked about AoC now.

Already pre-ordered mine, even before the ranger-video. What can I say, nothing else really appeals to me right now, so I'm putting my hope there. ^_^

If I see you with some variation of Legolas with x's or some other random crap it's just going to make me that much more inclined to keel!

A. Has no clue what combat or animations are.

or

B. Is a troll.

Well, aside from the fact they have the release date as the 28th and not the 25th - GAME are always far too expensive, I'll just wait and see if Play or Amazon get it. Should be at least £10 cheaper and you will get it for the release day (usually with Play its the day before) I recon.

Back on topic, I have not seen any videos for AoC, but from all I've read, I have pre-ordered. Lack of playable games out at this time, companies closing doors, canceling projects played a part in my decision, and from what I've seen this game is the one in the near/far future to invest any amount of time and money into.

See y'all ingame.

Poor trolls. They have a difficult task these days. Well the Lich and Scion of Set helped obviously, but all in all it's getting harder for them :)

I acually preordered the game last Friday, the day I heard Gamestop was accepting preorders. I had my mind made up on this game back in 2006 at DragonCon when I met and talked with the devs (and again in 2007).  My mind is still made-up and my hope and faith in this game has not changed since then.
