Elemental Forums
Hello all. I'm preordering the limited edition tomorrow and was wondering if I would still be eligible for the early download(if there is one). Thoughts?
I haven't heard the requirement or prerequisites for preloading yet, but I'd say you have a pretty good chance at it.
I have a further question on this, Island Dog. Is this going to be an encrypted preload (a la Steam, et al) or is this going to be a playable preload with 0-day patch unavailable until launch day?
and another question to do with the preload, ie any idea when it will happen?

Now, one thing I think I can say (and I’m not promising this because all things are ultimately decided by the IT gods) but it is our plan to make the “gold” version of the game available a bit early to those in the beta and those who pre-order will also likely get it a bit early. We hope to start pre-loading Elemental onto machines early to mid next week to reduce strain.
At retail, Walmart, Best Buy, Gamestop, EB, etc. should all have it in strong supply. Just make sure you update to the day 0 version (via Impulse) because you will need the day 0 version to play multiplayer or do the mod tools stuff not to mention we’ll have a ton of new stuff in it as well. The download should be pretty small though.
