MythicalMino Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Is it possible to "pre-order" TEW2008? I cannot seem to find any link, and it is not showing up in the store.... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalterSobchak Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I wish it was released on Saturday, so I could get some quality time (2 day bender) with TEW08 before work on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Cobra Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I can't remember, are UK Debit cards excepted? I don't want credit cards (EVER) and so only have a Maestro Debit Card. If not I could borrow the use of one from my sister, but I'd prefere to do it myself, straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MythicalMino Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 ok....i figured it was a stupid question, either that, or i was just being completely blind. I was able to find the info on the schedule of release, but I did not see anything there that said anything about pre-ordering. Thanks, though...

Can we get it on Saturday so that those who have to work from Monday to Friday get 2 days to play before we have to return to the grindstones? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai of Mattitude Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 The ability to pre-order it would be relatively useless, seeing as it's not something which is at risk of going out of stock and it's not as if it's going to be delivered. It wouldn't really speed up toe process or make it more convenient at all. Also, I'd also like to know whether debit cards are accepted in the e-license process. Before I've just used my dad's credit card but now that I've got my own debit card I'd rather use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistaken Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 in this case the 'advantage' to pre-order is a planning issue more than a stock issue. You can pay for it on payday (friday) before your wife pays the bills, and then goes shopping with the rest saturday morning, leaving you once again broke by sunday morning.

alanreao Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 You should be able to use a debit card. I used mine with TEW 2007, and I wouldn't expect they changed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHUK Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I'd like to expand on this, in previous years we could buy via PayPal due to a few UK debit cards not working with the system. Could we pre-order via PayPal? Not pre-ordering as such, just paying now.. as I know there's always a big list of PayPal payments to manually go through. Maybe most of the generating of codes, etc could be gotten ready for e-mailing out on release day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hilarious that Adam answers the "pre-order" question with a solid "no" yet people can insisting on discussing "pre-ordering" when the question has been answered...and someone even gave a solid reason as to why "pre-ordering" isn't necessary for a game you download, buy a key for and then electronically license it to the computer you plan to play the game on. I'd like to pre-order my license so I can play TEW08 before anyone else. You know, just in case GDS runs out of keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone here is against the game being available one day early. :P I completely understood Adam's response to pre-ordering. There is no reason for that, but releasing earlier would be nice. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
