What Happen?
Gods & Hereos? SOE were publishers and Perpetual were designing it, Perpetual said they dropped it to concentrate on STO (which looks more and more like vapourware with each passing day). But as usual SOE is the kiss of death to any MMORPG that gets associated with them in anyway, look at what happened to PotBS.
BTW: Gotta love that Jestor!

Now after reading the word restrictions the 1st thing that cam to my mind is the lvl cap of 20. I probably wouldnt bother looking either.

That key is for your in game item, it also gives you the CHANCE to get early access. It isn't promised and never was,

True, yet it says "You may begin downloading the game client software and installing as early as May 14th". The word "may" is a not a guarantee, then it goes on to say "Some restrictions apply, see registration page for details". Also after reading this "There is a nominal fee of $5 that covers the cost of the download and includes 10 days of additional game time". After reading that it should've been clear you weren't purchasing early access with your pre order, yes?
Most logical people would've thought "Hmm I may get it and have to pay for it seperately and restrictions apply, I probably don't get it guaranteed now". Even those that didn't check it and didn't get into early access would look back and say "Oh well, I should've looked harder". However we seem to have a plague of biblical proportions, not of locusts but whining punks screaming "Funcom gave me cancer WHHHAAAA!".
I m not blaming FC or the retailer here, but u cant blame the customer either for not following on a link on the fine print. The vast majority wouldnt.
So people just relax FC didnt scam you out of your money, just be patient and wait for 3 days to play on the official release date.
OK I'll agree with you on that, however you must agree then when it says you must pay for EA seperatly it's clear you don't have EA guaranteed when you purchased the pre order? If it's a seperate product being sold seperatley then you don't have it until you purchase it, correct?

You have a good excuse lol epic success :P
Still I was thinking on starting a whine thread, bitching about how Funcom screwed up and how their downloader sucks. But then I realized I'm not 13 years old.

Would you rather see a game release pushed back a year or have the game release witha few bugs that will be fixed?
