Hi,

there is one retailer in my country who sells (pre-order) HOT at 30€ price. In the item (HOT) description he says Preorder bonsues: Exclusive Title, Access to All Beta Weekend Events. This got me curious, since when pre-order gets access to beta?

Retailer said he has no cd-key now, because game isnt ready yet..so i asked him, IF beta would start tomorow how he would give me a cd-key to beta, because cd-key for the game isnt ready. Then he answered “maybe there will be some additional keys to beta only”.

So how it is? Is retailer wrong with description, because its pre-purchases bonuses not pre-order? What your country retailer says in game description?

Pre-orders get no special bonuses. Only pre-purchases, and the key associated with pre-purchases.

There is a distinct difference. And…only authorized retailers have the pre-purchase keys.

Good luck.

Hope this gives you a better idea and i suspect the same thing is happening, After trying to figure out from our local retailer what was going on and getting no proper responses I found the distributors. The pre purchased units are being shipped to them stil so they actually do not have it yet. But it was confirmed to be a pre purchase SKU . just make sure your retailer is on the list of retailer that is getting the pre PURCHASE SKu products and not the pre order sku. In my country we have several retailers but only one is getting the pre purchase option.
