hey, why dont the testers who have played for a long time get some o' that stuff, too?
Oct 12, 2004 Spellcast link
because we allready get to say "we were there on st. crispins day" to the noobs when they ask when the test started.

We've been playing for free for better than 2 years (well some of us have anyhow) dont you think thats enough?

Man, I'd pre-order it just to get all the snazzy extras:
- An extra 30 days free (60 days totoal, a $20 value)
- Access to the beta
- Advanced access to the final game launch. Pre-Order customers will be able to start working on their characters after the "post-beta" character wipe, but before the retail launch, giving them a head start on everyone else.
- Exclusive in-game benefits
- Printed booklet version of the Chronicles of Exile (universe backstory)(cool, but not the coolest)
- Vendetta Online poster, featuring the launch universe map and some other cool graphics. (the almost coolest one)
- Snazzy Vendetta Online box (the best one)
- Undying devotion of Guild Software. (just great. I'll love it forever.)

Devs, just wanna say congratulations on getting this game together. For the 32,000th time, but who cares.

WOOOoooooo I pre-ordered! So what is this special in game treatment we'll get for pre-ordering? Discount prices on some items? Special bage? What about the beta testers, do we get any proof of having been beta testers?

Well, there's hugs and backrubs from your's truly, and then of course the "special bage". There's also the "beta medal" in your character's profile.

I think I'm going to preordering Friday, as long as the wife doesn't object.

Ooo, I'll need to preorder... Of course, I need 30 bucks first... :-/

Devs, when are the preorders open until?

Alright I'll start making Christmas cookies early this year and I'll have a Valk inspired sugar cookie included in each box :)
Except everyone will have to buy multiple boxes to collect all three colors (red, blue and gold).

Pyro, i'd think until the game is released.

proof of purchase for EnB-ers will be a slight problem - whether they acquired it via buddy codes or, as I did, already sent it in to EA ($10 back with proof of purchase if you had the demo disc shipped to you).

how about a screenshot of the EA account screen?

Woah, I pre-ordered before I even knew this thread existed.

Pre-ordered :D

Pre-ordered.

Suggestion:
Take "Mary Kay Pink" out of the ship color swatches and reserver it for pre-order pilots.

(pre-ordered... finally)

Wow, how about a more gender-neutral color... (RvB reference: "It's light red!")

Or maybe we could just get the keys to the flying saucer.

vendetta online wasn't in the pre order binder at the EB in Niagara Falls yet so I haven't pre ordered yet

LOL shipping is gonna cost me as much as the game itself. There must be a better way.
Oct 13, 2004 Illyana link
"special ship variant" Oohh can I get a ship that looks similar to my JE from E&B?? I realize it cant be exact but I would be happy with a close resemblance :)

"simondearsley:

I think we brought that to their attention, let's give them some time to think of solutions :)

My suggestion:
Think of a way where non-US players can send $29.99 to Guildsoftware and get a downloadversion of VO. We won't get the box or the poster or the book, but we would get the rest of the in-game benefits.
