Just thought I'd put this up here for everyone to see. Due to distribution problems with some retailers, FC has decided to extend the Early Access Period so that the people who have had trouble getting their copy of the game in time can still enjoy the game:
----------------------------- Dear Early Access Customer,
As you may know, today was the deadline for registering a retail key to continue playing Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. From reading our forums and support emails, we’ve discovered there have been some issues with regional distribution and retail shipments not making it out on time. While this is only the case for a minority of the players, we understand this would leave some of our players with no way to access the game until these shipping difficulties have been resolved. Even though we do not control the distribution and shipping process for Age of Conan, we have however decided to do what we can. As a result we will extend the Early Access grace period a few more days, meaning that you can continue to play until Friday, 30 May 2008 at 22:00GMT. After that time, you will need to enter a retail key to continue playing. We hope these additional days are sufficient so that everyone who has pre-ordered will get their Age of Conan retail box in time. Sincerely The Age of Conan development team __________________ ------------------------------
Cheers! |

This does nothing to help people like me who preordered, didn't get EA and still haven't received their order yet. |

Next time, don't be so cheap. Spend the 5 dollars and get not only get EA, but 10 extra days gameplay as well. Feel sorry for you anyway. Sucks the way EIDOS handled distribution.
