Pre-order bonus

[wrongfeifong]

I wonder if it possible to get both items, i already got a buy-out on Collector edition @ gamestop.

I also want that google that give increase skill progression.

Re: Pre-order bonus

Maybe if you buy both versions but then since you only get them on characters make after you register the code you'll have to skip the 1 week early play time from the collectors edition.

Re: Pre-order bonus

I'm buying both myself but I'm starting to wonder if the goggles are worth the waiting.

Re: Pre-order bonus

Increased skill progression on a standard edition item sounds a bit too good to be true to me. I wouldn't surprise me if there was some kind of limit on it.

Re: Pre-order bonus

Probably like one use every 3 days or so...

Re: Pre-order bonus

I doubt that, I'm pretty sure you just equip it and you're good to go.


But here's the thing; increased skills are good initially, but in the long run after you've maxed out the Onion Helm will still be relevant. At least that's what I tell myself to feel better about dropping an extra $25...

Re: Pre-order bonus

Just so no one is confused, sometimes you have to spell it out for some people:

There is an in game item code in the Limited Edition for an onion helm



that "quickens recovery following KO". With the standard game, there is an in game item code for a pair of Garlond Goggles:



that "increases the speed of skill progression". The code for these items must FIRST be registered with your Square Enix account and then you can make your character. With the Limited Edition game, you get to play one week earlier than the standard game. So if you register your Onion Helm and then make your character and play for a week, you will NOT be able to use the code for the Garlond Goggles on the character you've been playing with. If you buy the Limited Edition and wait to make your character until the standard game players can play, then you could register both codes and get both items on the character you would make....at least this is the way SE makes it sound.

Re: Pre-order bonus

Where do you register that FF13 code anyway? I did it to get my Beta code and...


MOTHER FUCKER! I think when I rank my last disc clean up it actually deleted my note pad files with my promo codes... @#&*(^*&@#&@*^&* I know I can retrieve it but how? (At least I hope I can, I'm going to be so pissed if I can't... just e-mailed SE Support)

WTF ... my other notepad files are still there, why in the crap were my FF13/14 files wiped... PIECE OF CRAP PC!

Re: Pre-order bonus

ok there there are softwares that recover deleted files (Easy recovery is one) it should find it if its deleted.

Also the code for ff13 gloves is on their member page somewhere, so its not lost. (speaking for NA I dunno about EU) also the email you got with the code in it should still be in your msn (or w/e you use) inbox unless you deleted it.

Don't lose hope just yet.

Personally I have the email, notepad and even a piece of paper in my wallet with the promo code in it lol... /paranoid

bleh that sucks, although if you already registered the code you should be fine, but if not, and you cant get it back PM me, I have an extra code thingy from FFXIII that you can have

Re: Pre-order bonus

I got it back, wrote it down again and I can review it any time at the SE members site so whew. @.@

Re: Pre-order bonus

Buying both seem to be a hassle. I already have CE pre-order and paid but paying another 50 buck for a google....seem too be too much.

Then i have to get the ps3 version when it comes out in march. SE sure know its marketing strategy. Now i have to buy 3 copies....

It is fine...i bought 4 copies of FFXI already.....

and what about the FF13 gloves ? what is it? Another item when you purchase FF13? (i have it for 360..i don't see it)

[Malacite]

Re: Pre-order bonus

I'm not sure if the Promo Code from the 360 version works, it may only be for people who bought the PS3 version since it's the same code you use to get into the Beta. The Azure Armbands increase the effectiveness of tools (sounds like a crafting boost to me but it could be a general thing given weapons are also technically tools and have been referred to as such; e.g. switch your tool to change class)

Re: Pre-order bonus

Is it on every ps3 FF13? because i haven't even start my FF13 on 360 yet. Maybe i can get a trade in with someone since i have ps3 as well.

Also anyone want to petition so that collector edition get BOTH bonus! I think everyone should sent SE a mail and spam them.

Re: Pre-order bonus

It was only in the very first batch of shipments.

Also, unless you want to be a pariah, don't ever mention a petition ever again.
