Incase you didn't notice: Steam players are now allowed to pre-order Heavensward

http://store.steampowered.com/app/359480/

It's a "DLC" apparently. Makes sense.
Haven't seen a thread about it, but putting it here just incase.

EDIT: For some reason my fingers typed Pre-Order, my bad. >_>.

I should get more coffee.

Cool, nice

Well its up but we still cant preorder yet.

I find their System Req amusing.

Says available 23 June, does this mean steam users can't pre order and get early access?

We knew they were going screw us on this.

I hate Steam with a passion, myself.

So we can't get the pre order on Steam... great

Come on Steam. I just want the bonus items and the early access. Let us preorder.

Sadly, still nothing on PSN...

Well, Heavensward content is available June 23rd. We're supposed to get the Steam preorder sometime in May. It's only May 12, so we've still got time. I'm waiting for it too. I seriously doubt SE would deny preorder bonuses to Steam users.

"Limited Time Pre-purchase Bonus
When available for pre-purchase on Steam, you will receive a product registration key code that you may redeem on Mog Station which grants you the following bonuses:

Early Access
Pre-purchase FINAL FANTASY XIV: Heavensward on Steam and access Heavensward content starting June 19, 2015. "

You have to click the "Read More" button but it's there.

I'm suspicious the delay has something to do with pricing of the x-pac.

No, that's not the case. That June 23 date is listing the time that the game is set to launch, not that there are no pre-orders available.

As others have pointed out, the pre-order bonuses are listed in the "Read More" section of the page. We are still planning to have the Steam version available for pre-order, as we have been saying. :)

Ok sounds great!

I guess that's something...

How about region lock from EU?

I can buy US version but not EU, is there any good method for us to buy?
I wish I can use US Heavensward on my EU acc.

Come ooooon Steam. :C I want my pre-order bonuses!

So, if I pre-ordered Heavensward from SE's site, but I own a Steam version, is there any hope for me?

No. Why would pre-order outside of Steam if you own the steam version of the game?

I was unaware of the compatibility issues before pre-ordering the expansion. I suppose that means I'll have to pre-order it again *grumble grumble*.

So What about the Early Access. Will Steam users have early access if we pre-order?

Probably because the non steam version was out a lot sooner for preorder than the steam version. People probably jumped the gun an bought the non steam version not realizing it wasn't compatible.

I'm really unimpressed with how long this is taking. My only options now are hold out and hope they haven't screwed this up somehow, or to spend even more money buying a plain Windows copy of ARR + Heavensward. It sucks, and really just feels like we're getting shafted because we bought through a different platform =/

And what about a DirectX11 client? Nothing about it on Steam.

Only From Software sells same game twice. (Dark Souls II vs Dark Souls II Dx11)
You'll be able to choose client version from launcher.

Contact customer support, ask for cancelling of the Heavensward pre-order, fill desired information.. and voila. Within an hour you'll get email sent by system confirming the cancelling operation.

They said this for NA/EU psn as well lol

The only news I have seen for PS3 or PS4 pre-orders is that the codes are causing issues to the point of needing to completely reinstall the game. The PSN doesn't even recognize Heavensward if searched. I don't know the mix of PC to console players but I would assume that we should be a significant enough number to at least be worthy of an update with 3 weeks to the early access period.

Never would have bought on Steam if I knew it'd be so problematic. I wish I could pay to change my account over to the SE store version.
