How Will We Know If Game Is Available Early?

August 20, 2010 6:14:10 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

I am hoping but not assuming that as someone who preordered a couple of months ago I will get early access to Elemental. Comments from Frogboy (that's Brad, right?) seemed to indicate early access might be available for at least Beta testers on Sunday or Monday.

My question is this: If the current serial numbers are invalid, will new ones be issued via e-mail when the release is available for download? Looking at Impulse won't tell me as far as I know, and there's been no mention of a preload option.

Stardock, please don't be silent on this. As someone who gave you $50 a couple of months back and an additional $20 recently for the LE edition, I think it's not unreasonable for a little clarity on this.

Thank You,

Gary

Well you see: hair will start to grow in new places and you'll start to have these urg... OH, sorry. Totally misread the title.

I'm guessing it will be announced.

I Pre-Ordered on Monday and just now got an email from Stardock saying "for users who pre-order it, you will be able to begin downloading it a day early on August 23rd."

I looked at it again and it seems to be a generic ad.  I may have got it because I signed up for news releases.

Oh, now Best Buy is added. I have $45 worth of rewards zone credit but Best Buy wasn't one of the 3 retail outlets listed a few days ago. Oh well, pre-ordered the Limited Edition (digital and hard copy) from Stardock days ago anyway.

Not enough "Hits Refresh", imho.
