That count down is what my 2nd quote was refering to. Mark was warning to not over-hype its significance.
Best guess at the moment is that the count down is the official date that preorders will be accepted and the details of what the preorders will include.
As you have proven, these details have already released since copies are already being circulated in some locations.

I notice it is only the Europe version of the site that has the count down. I wonder when we will start seeing the preorders here. We normally get screwed in Aus for distribution for most games.

I'm really excited about this game! Being an Aussie, I'll more likely hang with the other Oceanic players. I'm excited about flipping LOTRO for WAR!

From everything i have seen and read it appears they are starting to gear up for release. New site, CE info release.

Sanji, where did you purchase the pre-order and obtain the beta key? I also doubt even if they give beta keys from pre ordering that they would allow everyone in at the same time.

Let's hope release comes sooner than later.

I got mine at GameStop in Chandler Arizona. I'd scan it and post a pic of it if I had a scanner to show you.

It is specifically an "Open Beta" key, so Im not in the Beta now or anything, but I will be when Open Beta opens, which if I guess right will be the beggining of May or late April. The timer on the War Euro site is for the GOA event in Paris tommarow where they will annouce information about this. Guess we will have to wait 1 more day to get official information.

I've preordered 2 licenses today. Hope to have my open beta keys and be waiting patiently (NOT!) in the next few days.

Icehawk - Where did you pre-order from? Is EB in AU doing it? How much was it (I cringe as I ask)

Gamestop was the only company I found that didn't worry about doing an international pre-order. I'm still holding out hope of getting a local CE, but I'm not holding my breath .... and not taking the risk.

I ordered through Amazon (USD49.95 + shipping), regular edition can ship to AU, Collectors Edition you need a US address.

I bought my CE pre-order today through Games Warehouse for $150 AUD ($20 will be charged when they send the pre-order pack, the balance when the CE ships)..

I've dealt with them before and their great to deal with and always respond quickly to any queries you might have.

I asked the people in 'Game' (previously Games Wizards) about the CE. They've advised they'll be getting a CE in and that they should know more tomorrow (Saturday).
