It is wrong to say you will not receive a mount if you get the Collector's Edition.

On the norwegian pre-order site Platekompaniet ( http://www.platekompaniet.no/gameproduct.asp?id=300011727 ) expressly says you will receive a a War Mammoth regardless of whether you pre-order the regular version or the collector's edition.

Forhåndsbestill Age Of Conan: Hyborian Adventures nå og få med eksklusivt tilleggsutstyr som kan benyttes i spillet. Enten du forhåndsbestiller den vanlige utgaven eller Collector's Edition får du tilsendt en kode som gjør at du får en såkalt "War Mammoth" og et utstyrsbelte. Beltet gjør at du i spillet kan bære med deg flere gjenstander enn normalt, og mammuten kan benyttes som ridedyr og kampdyr med en gang du når level 40. Begge disse spillgjenstandene er eksklusive, og er ikke å få tak i med mindre man forhåndsbestiller spillet. Ved å forhåndsbestille vil du også få muligheten til å "tjuvstarte" spillet tre dager tidligere enn det er å få i butikkhyllene. Ved hjelp av en "forhåndsordrekode" som man får tilsendt per e-post, vil man kunne laste ned spillet (ca.15GB) 6 dager før relase, for så å kunne spille det 3 dager senere. Å laste ned dette "forspranget" koster 5 euro (ca.40 kroner), men gir til gjengjeld ti dagers spilletid.

Translation: Preorder Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures now and receive exclusive additional in-game equipment. Whether you pre-order the ordinary edition or the Collector's Edition you will be sent a code which gives you a so-called "War Mammoth" and an equipment belt [...]

Hey there, thanks for that. I haven't checked this page in detail recently but I thought I had fixed that description up (as I have also seen elsewhere that pre-orders as a whole will receive the bonuses items). Daworm 01:18, 16 April 2008 (UTC)


Pre-order Oddities[]

So, completely by accident I came to realize that you could kind of cheat your way into multiple items. I had originally pre-ordered the CE from Amazon.com, went to the media library, go my code, and inserted it at Funcom.com for my Amazon bow and Early Access. About a week later I realized the bestbuy near me would have CE after the game released, and I have a bunch of giftcards for them, so I canceled my Amazon.com CE and pre-ordered the regular version from Gamestop. I got my Mammoth code, and put it in, but I still had my Amazon bow code...apparently it doesn't cancel one another. So, free Amazon bow ftw? Sacrilege 14:08, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
