Obviously lol.



I wasnt talking like there had been direction confirmation; I was just saying that I am of the opinion that most likely Amazon.co.uk are just being idiots and have no idea what they are on about.

No, they've done that because it's no longer available to order.

It's likely just a system limitation that they had to work around too, and are doing it to try and not confuse people wondering why they can't order the SE.

SE was offered till January 11, which was the whole deal with the SE it was a temporary offer. :)
So it makes sense that they now only mention information on the normal edition, because you can no longer order the SE.

Ahh ok well that explains it. I thought the offer was the upgrade till jan 11th didn't realise the SE was temporary. It also explains that the pre order stuff will most probably be all in the box. I'm going to sit tight now till release.
Thanks for the responce.

Just to confirm this direct from Chris P to me.



'If you get the Sig Ed, these items are INCLUDED.'



As previously you need to wait for the reaponse from the EU Team for clarification on pre orders for the PC normal edition from Game UK and Gamestation.



I leave Chris to now take this forward.

Ah lol good, thanks for clearing that bit up, that means I don't have to deal with the morons at Game.co.uk as I preordered the SE version Image IPB

Hopefully we'll get some official confirmation sometime soon just to reinforce things a bit.

I too would like official confirmation if we get the pre-oder bonuses or not from Amazon.co.uk. I pre-ordered PC SE from Amazon.co.uk & it would be nice to get all the pre-order bonuses aswell :) All Amazon say about SE is "Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available."

But I suppose it depends how the pre order bonuses are implemented because for PC you could download some of them anyway (like that memory band ring for DAO) whereas some needed an activation code...

At any rate the PC SE costs £24.99, the normal edition costs £28.90 so I can't complain too much over a sword & shield can I!

I have now heard back from my EU conterparts.

I am sorry to say that, no, Amazon.co.uk will not be offering the pre-order items Fadeshear or The Lion of Orlais.

This was their choice, not BioWare or EA's. The only thing I can suggest is contact Amazon.co.uk and complain. Sorry.

It seems an odd choice, to which I see no logical reasoning behind. I guess that means I won't be getting Fadeshear or The Lion of Orlais

What about the Signature edition - aren't the codes for Fadeshear / Lion of Orlais included in the box?

[edit] It seems that codes are given out to retailers who participate and that these codes are not included in the box. Amazon Germany is participating, Amazon UK (where I preordered) is not. Chris, is there a possibility for those who pre-ordered to receive the bonus items directly, like the Staff of Parthalan?

That makes no sense at al, then why offer the SE at all? Now it's just the regular game in the cover of the SE. This really ticks me off.

Chris is there no way to get the items some other way? We did pre-order after all...

Edit: I know that the Exiled Prince is also part of the SE, but for me the items were also part of it. x.x

Well. That's great. :(

It might have been nice to be told there was a retailer opt-in scheme at work before we made our pre-orders...

Is it really too much to ask of those idiots at Amazon to actually give us what we've paid for?

At the same time, is it too much to ask for Bioware to just include items made before release in the damn game, instead of making us jump through hoops to get 20 different pre-release items.

Damn ... first time Amazon let me down. We still get all the SE bonus items and the Black Emporium yes?

Perhaps, but that's not really the point here.

The thing is that we paid for the SE (or the regular edition) with the assumption that we will get those two items as a pre-order bonus. And Amazon is just not doing what they should be doing, that is giving us the items.

Sure, in the end you could blame bioware for creating pre-order bonusses, but at this point Amazon is wrong, since all the other retailers (afaik) are delivering the items.

@tamahome, the DLC (exiled prince) will probably be in the box (like Shale with Origins) and everyone gets the Emporium stuff.

Yes. It is the Fadeshear and Lion of Orlais items that are not included.
