Should their have been a separate piece of paper in my DVD case to redeem pre-order bonuses?

 

How does installation work? I input the first DVD and it took me to Origin to activate prior to installing. When I input the key it asked me to confirm the digital deluxe edition when I have the physical edition. Is this all normal?

I'm stuck until about 10pm tonight, but I'd like to ask the same thing. I've never pre-ordered a game from Gamestop online before, and pre-order bonuses in store were always on the receipt it seems.

 

That being said, I am also curious what the pre-order bonuses are, if anyone knows. I have an Inquisitor's Edition waiting for me at home, and i know what's in the deluxe set, but I missed when they announced what the preorder items were specifically.

 

Thanks!

I haven't picked mine up yet, but I read that the key for the preorder bonus would be printed on the receipt.

I didn't get mine from GS, but that's usually what they do.  I think though the employee has to confirm it that it needs printed on there, but I'm not certain on that part

I am installing mine right now, and the pre-order items were listed with the digital deluxe items in the download que after I entered the code from inside the game.

Thanks, all, for the tips! I guess I'll go ahead and confirm "origin digital deluxe"--even though that's not exactly what I have--since that's the only option they're giving me when I input my key. Just hope I'll be able to install from my discs since I certainly don't want to download the game. It seems like it wouldn't be too much effort for EA to offer different confirmation screens for deluxe and digital deluxe--and that "follow the on-screen instructions" is pretty thin as installation guides go, especially, when on-screen instructions are lacking, but I guess EA is determined to confirm my impressions of them.

I think you should still be able to use the disks - in this respect, the physical deluxe is identical to the digital deluxe, and you're just unlocking the game to your Origin library, to download whenever.

 

I got a boxed edition of Skyrim way back when (it was actually the game that got me onto Steam - outside of Blizzard, I hadn't been a PC gamer for over a decade) and I was able to install it using the disks, but the key obviously unlocked it on Steam, for me to download again whenever I wanted to.

Yes you will be able to install from your disks, it will say "reading" I think instead of "Downloading". Mine installed from the disk automatically.

Thanks, again! It's "copying" as I type.  :)
