Eurobro here, will probably be playing on Essenia. I haven't placed my final order with Zavvi yet but do you know if the EU-headstarters will get buddy codes as well?

From what i read on Frogster site there is a buddy key with a CE but take this with a grain os salt, cause I'm not sure.

Btw if you don't like in UK consider that from what i understood they are not going to give a grace period.

They wrote on the forum, some time ago, there will be a grace period, but today on twitter they said you need to insert a code at 3th may.

Ah alrighty then, I wasn't planning on buying a CE. Just grabbing the cheapest one I can find from a retailer who's still handing out early access codes. Didn't you order from Zavvi as well? I presume you already have your code? I guess I'll just have to order right now then. The free keys people are handing out are for the USA-version or so it seems.

Yes, the keys on the forum are for NA Tera, and yes i ordered from Zavvi.com  they are usually fast in emailiing preorder key. 

The PCC is already started and will end tomorrow at midnight CET if you want to reserve a name you have to hurry :)

Thanks! I'll go order right away then!

Actually I am now facing a dilemma here. I can order it from Zavvi which will probably mean I'll get a headstart code, yet cannot actually play when the headstart is over because the shipping will take multiple days (Netherlands). If the gap between the end of headstart and actually receiving the game is large enough, it will make participating in the headstart pointless. Why? Well, because I also know a Dutch store where I can get a physical copy for a couple of euro's cheaper, and they'll even mail me the retail key before shipping the game. This allows me to play the game on the day of release but won't get me into headstart as that shop doesn't have the codes. 

Of course I could bypass this mess by buying it from Frogster directly, but it's just expensive, really.
