I appologize,  after asking the question I did read over the thread a second time after a rather quick reading.  I will make sure that I read everything before asking a question again.  Of course,  I'm not really sure why it's such a  bother to you.

It's not a bother, and you don't need to apologize. I was just making an observation . You are perfectly free to ignore what was said and ask again, and it's no slight on you. I just found the situation funny, that's all

Damn my desire to save on shipping! I should have bought the PC version from the EA store and ordered the CE guide from Amazon.

[Shadelon]

*dances to FF victory tune* Haha I was right. Though I couldn't predict the same items being offered from EA's stores. Amazon and Best Buy are sure to get their own specific bonuses I'm sure.



So now I have Hindsight, Staff of Parthalan, All the SE stuff, and now Fadeshear Sword and Lion of Orlais Shield.....Think I have enough yet? Nope. MUST HAVE MORE!



Hehe, after I missed out on all of the DAO preorder bonuses cause I bought it a year later, I made a promise to myself to make DAMN sure I don't miss out this time with Dragon Age II. Oh And bottom of that page also confirms March 8th as the street date. Pretty much tells me, no delay coming. Though it will be totally official when it goes gold.

We'll have official word on these tomorrow (PST time, when humans are at the controls of office computers once again) - in the meantime, no need to get all worked up over this as this time around the offerings are much simpler.

Signature Edition includes:
- the 4 digital armory items
- The Exiled Prince DLC
- digital game soundtrack
- and 'more' content for those that buy new (to be revealed tomorrow)
- in total, the ~$20 additional content mentioned to be part of the SE version

Regular Edition includes:
- the same 'more' content for those that buy new (to be revealed tomorrow)


Any pre-order (SE or Regular from when DA2 pre-orders started until game launches) at a participating retailer - gets the Fadeshear and Lion of Orlais items (sword/shield). 

The major retailers should be on the 'participating' list, but as always it is best to confirm directly with your store of preference - we don't decide who participates, they do.

EA Store pre-orders, will get an additional item - The Irons - on top of the two pre-order items mentioned above.

That's it.  :innocent:


Completely separate from the box/game ordering fun, are promo items that we'll offer up for various activities on the community before and after launch - for example the Staff of Parlathan, etc.  Watch for details on how to get those here on the site, and we'll have a handy page up near launch that will detail how to get the items revealed to date.

Thank you, you've learned from DA:O.  Indignation waning.

[DragonAddict]

Since I ordered my digital copy at 11:58pm... cutting it a little close to the dead line, I still got the Sig Edition, right? Even though my order says just Dragon Age 2, right?

[Kryplixx]

Thanks Frenando Melo! What a sweet name man.



I'm assuming my Amazon Pre-Order is classified as a major retailer. Hope to hear more about that tomorrow.

[ralph2190]

Thanks Fernando! That clears it up! So basically whoever pre-ordered the sig edition gets everything except The Irons item, which is reserved for EA store orders. Sweet.

[Silver Direwolf]

Hopefully Play.com is one of the participating retailers then

Cause without those two particular items, the games is just not worth playing to be honest

Precisely why I'm kicking myself.   Ugh! I'm already guaranted the other content from Gamestop for my PS3 copy.

WOW.



You're kidding.

I actually go by, "Hmm... Who's the cheapest 'round here?" and get EVERYTHING??

*dancity dance*

Also, this is a boatload of free stuff for ordering early . When they said 20$-7$ = 13$ on top of the Exiled Prince DLC, they weren't joking. I can't wait to see what other free swag I'm getting for wanting to play the sequel to one of my favourite games.

*keeps dancing*

[Talon_Wu]

Thanks for the info, Fernando!



Whew, I waffled over the retailer for ages. EA Store ftw.

Even though I'm very happy that I got lucky and landed all the items, the belt (it looks like a belt) isn't all that exciting. Here, read its description:

Adds to all elemental resistances, adds to health, adds to constitution

Eh. We'll all probably substitute it with Hindsight, which I assume, is much more badass.

True, but I'm greedy.

I can smell the drama llama of tomorrow already cooking.

[WidowMaker9394]

Will every retailer that had the SE also have these bonus items?

[Cyr8]

Thanks for the update, Fernando. My anger is waning. Can't wait for this game.

These kind of items are always nice I guess, but to me they always seem a little hollow because they're just THERE and my char had to do nothing to get them.

Much more satisfying to get the sword from that dragon you barely managed to kill even if the item isn't as good.

[Lotion Soronarr]

Meh...was never a fan of pre-order items.



If they make em too powerful, they mess up the balance (and ask the question where Hawke got them from?)



If they're not powerful enough, then I might as well start with a normal run-of-the mill sword.



Either way, a cheap way to increase sales, but I don't liek it at all.

R.O.B. does so love his games with the space-time continuum.

Yep, that's bothering me a bit. Your a refugee runnig for your life with barely nothing BUT in your inventory lays a full armory of badass weapons.

The staff of Parlathans fit with the Hawkes familiy background so it's okay to have it but the rest... It feels a bit out of place. In origins, i always sell the Blood Dragon Armor at the first store i see. I'll probably do the same in DA2.

EDIT:
Well, that's quite good news that everyone who pre-ordered at the participating retailers gets those items... Though I'm hoping I'll actually get those items, considering my pre-order was a birthday present...
