I've seen a few posts about reserving Going Rogue...but where exactly do you reserve it IF we can yet? A friend said something about dual pistols on double xp weekend too for reserving, yet I can't find WHERE to??? Plus I want all the bonus stuff for reserving it! Any help?

Not for reserving, for buying when it goes on sale in the NCSoft online store (said to be March 2nd).

Note, you cannot pre-order/purchase the "Complete Edition" which includes 1 month game time, can start a new account (if you want to), and the "CE" goodies that is 40US$.

Only the expansion-only, digital-only, 30US$ version (no time, no goodies) is available early, thus granting early access to the power sets (Dual Pistols in March, Demon Summoning in April.)


Orc&Pie No.53230 There is an orc, and somehow, he got a pie. And you are hungry.

So since we all already got accounts basically, we gotta buy the $40 one (as of now) to get all the special in-game stuff? Kinda like you had to buy the Mac edition for the Valkyrie stuff until they released the lil booster for the PCs?

My understanding is that you can pre-buy the standard edition for (roughly) $30 and then there will also be a special you can buy for (probably) $10 that will give you access to all the goodies in the $40 complete collection.

It won't, however, contain the free month of game time that you would get if you just bought the complete collection by itself when the expansion's released.

If you think about it, you will realize that this is truly a non-complaint.

It sounds like just as with all the other recent boxed releases (Mac/AE), buying the full thing will be a much better value than getting the preorder and then upgrading to the full set. Paying less for more is hardly something to gripe about. All it is costing is the ability to play the new sets early.

Depends on how much you value being able to play the sets sooner as to which is the better buy.
