This is bullshit. Seriously. Was going to get it but what's the point now. I'll find a way to get it for free when it comes out on e-book just out of spite. If you're going to do limited/special editions, give people a chance at least.

I'd also like to second the suggestion that the countdown for the memorial would've better been suited for this. When I first saw the countdown I got excited and thought I should stay up till it hits zero cuz I might miss out on something....no, it's a memorial that I don't care for.
But when it comes to something where timing DOES matter, there's no foresight or thought that a countdown or devblog or announcement might be a good idea BEFORE starting sales. Seriously this is a slap in the face. |

I have just ordered my copy of the limited edition from somewhere else.
I'm not going to say where, as I don't want the hordes of US players to know. But Australian players have a local option, a little detective work and local knowledge should be enough for you to figure it out.
Trying to do this as well. Sadly, I fear I lack the "local knowledge" you speak of. |

Found one Australian store that has it but it's not clear if it's limited edition or not. Judging by the price, it's not.
This is getting really frustrating. |

After contacting IKON, searching through all their clients, and finding nothing but the non-LE version, I have run out of options.
******* pissed. |

Hard to say. There's over 500k subscriptions and if you assume the average is 2-3 accounts per person, then you could also assume less than 1% of people got a chance to get this item.
I also think it's pretty **** move of certain individuals to gloat about the success of sales while completely ignoring the legitimate concerns of a large portion of posters in this very thread, not even an acknowlegement that the announcements were lacking and the release was very poorly executed. Nevermind the lack of foresight to produce enough copies to satisfy their roleplaying community.
But what do they care. They have us dangling like marionettes. |
