Still Waiting On Email

January 18, 2012 10:26:20 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Though I was allowed in WoM's beta when there was only the cloth map, I haven't received an email for FE, in inbox or spam folder. Are the emails still being staggered or should I see red flags cropping up?

Apparently they're still being staggered.  The only folks I've heard getting emails were those with July/August pre-order dates.

I pre-ordered in Sept go guessing I get mine tomorrow morning.  I don't think you need the email to access the beta, but we won't know until 3pm tomorrow if that's true or not.


If I see folks with later dates getting emails, I'll stop being patient.

Hehe I feel your excitement. But don't worry, it seems there are so many emails in need of sending, that the pipeline can't handle the load all at once. It's like people assembled outside a Colosseum. Only so many can enter at any given time. Be patient, the queue moves steadily forward :~)

Quoting Island Dog,

There is an insanely large amount of emails that have to go out, and it takes quite a bit of time for them to process.  There are batches going out and if you haven't received an e-mail yet, just be patient.

 

I've got to wait till next week to play. I would'a pre-ordered, and was here reading the forums nearly everyday, right from the very pre-release moment I had learned of the game. But a shortfall of income, along with some unexpected emergency expenditures, prevented me from buying until a few months post release.  Is all good. I'll happily await my turn, happily cuz waiting our turns helps ensure we don't get stuck at the door for all trying to get in at once ;~p

Got an email around noon today (1/18), but it was just saying that it will be available at around 3 EST tomorrow. Didn't get a serial or anything yet though. Guess the serial may automatically get added as well though.

 

FYI:

  • Elemental [Pre-Order] (Download + Retail Box) on 9/17/2009

I got two emails.  One at around 12:30 pm est and 1 around 2:20 pm est.  So it looks like they are going out in batches if people have not got theres yet.

If you haven't received an e-mail yet, just check your account at 3pm EST.  If not, just have to wait a bit longer.

You might want to double check that its the same email connected to your stardock account and that it did not end up in the spam folder

No email, even though I pre-ordered at PAX. The date curiously enough shows 12/13/2011... which is a bit odd for the PAX pre-order.

 

I will check at noon to see if things worked properly and I get in.

I didn't get the email, but I'm downloading now!  Only 10 mins left.

No email but the download is available, however, the download doesn't start downloading... :\

 

 

EDIT: Nevermind, it's downloading... just slowly, lol.

I guess Im the odd man out. I haven't received any email either, and it does not show up on the download page (in fact it claims I purchased Elemental in Dec 2011). Oddly Enough I get this message on this Elemental Website

 

"Thank you for purchasing Elemental: War of Magic in 2010. You are eligible to receive Fallen Enchantress FREE of charge!

It will automatically be added to your account upon release. Enjoy!


Upgrade price:

FREE


In the meantime, be sure to check your email and downloads page for access."

 

Go figure, I hope the system isnt going to screw me.
