Pre-order code question (Australia)

I can't find an answer to this, so I'll post it here. So, I pre-ordered a copy of Heavensward from EB Games. Does anyone know when we're going to get our pre-order codes from them?

Have you tried asking on their facebook page?

Shouldn't your preorder code be on your receipt?
That's how EB does it here in Canada.

Your first mistake was pre-ordering from a physical store ...
Not even just being an ass either, I'm Australian too.
They wanted 60 for the standard edition, 300 for the collectors.
Its 60 dollars for the digital CE ... Ad you get the pre-order code instantly.

I pre-ordered way before they started giving preorder codes out to the people who ordered it online. I'm not sure if that still matters. I'm pretty uneducated when it comes to these things.

With my internet speed, buying physical copies is the only way I can do things.

Maybe I'm just spoiled by having the NBN.

I think the problem you're having stems from the fact that you pre-ordered before SE themselves announced the pre-order.
What you did was reserve a copy of the game, rather than an actual pre-order.
Its basically just so that EB can have the minimum number of copies instore for those that showed interest in the game.

IMO, You're better off going back into the store, cancel the existing 'pre-order' and redo it. Your new pre-order should give you pre-order code on the spot.

whats you honest opinion of using NBN much imporvement in your gaming?? is it worth gettin since recently got in my area but heard alot of negative things about it so havent rushed to switch it over yet

I preordered a physical copy of the Expansion + Full game (as for some reason, that's the only way to get the preorder code), and I got the code emailed to me about a week ago. EB Games are sending the codes out in chronological order... so for someone who preordered recently, probably get your code next week.

I have called, emailed and even drop a facebook message.

I was informed that distribution of codes hasn't started and that we are to get closer to release....

I hope they get their shit sorted.

This is why you don't pre-order from EB :p. Even if you don't get fast internet speeds you still have to download things, patches for example, taking the time to download the game when you're sleeping or when you are going out is how I do it :).
Digital pre-order from the SE store is the best.
