This reminded me to check my GMG account and the key was there! I never received an email letting me know, though.

You get the preorder premiere stuff. The golden gear and the free extra character DLC in October. That's how it activated on steam for me.
Seriously? Well, that sucks

Some people with less than stellar internet need a few days to preload sometimes. So I can see people's frustration.
Me, I am building a new PC this weekend, so no preloading here, even though its ready to go on Steam.

So what's the actual follow up? They never got keys and GMG ignored refunds?

That's fair enough.
GMG have been good to me in the past. I was anxious about preordering; I got my key promptly before the game came out.
The download for Borderlands 2 seems to be 4.5gb.

If you are within 10 levels of your co op buddies, just keep playing for at least an hour or so, it levels out very quickly. My buddy and I played some more co op in BL1 last night and I started and finished the session at lvl 33 but he went from level 23 to 29. By level 25 our combat effectiveness was pretty similar. The game will balance if you play a bit since more XP goes to the lower leveled party members. I think it works great, and is far better than other co op systems I have played.

They eventually got the keys, about half a day after the game unlocked.
IIRC it was a similar thing. People who pre-ordered early didn't get keys, once GMG got keys people who bought it then instantly got keys and those early per-orders didn't get the keys until after launch.
Those keys should be sent out in the order that people bought the game.

Wait until after the game is released. A fair amount of people who buy these sets end up selling off the extras. I have CE/LE artbooks from various games that I just buy off eBay, CAG, etc. for super cheap.

I'm about to play the borderlands 1 DLC. What's the consensus on the order to play all 4?
Cheers.
Another wish: that they had hardcover versions.
(actually is that Bradygames one the same as the one included in the CEs, well other than the physical size)
I'll have to go through ebay more often; locally here in Canada there isn't much luck for these things.

1st General Knoxx, then zombies, then Claptraps, skip Moxxi's.
The only collectors editions i buy are the ones that come with an art book and maybe a making of dvd. The nerd trophy stuff is terrble. What the fuck am I going to do with that stupid glorified lunch box thing.
Glad I got it preordered. I don't see much to complain about except for the field guide "book". That looks really cheap compared to what franchises like Assassin's Creed or Halo offer as gameworld notebooks.
That got me curious and checked my steam preorder and all mine says is, "Borderlands 2 Pre-Order ROW."
Can anyone else who preordered and steam check and see if theirs has a different name?

damn it GMG where is my key
i had to cancel my order and pay full price through steam. didnt think they would get my business again, but dem low low prices....having to get pc version for me and then xbox version so i can play with my friends.
oh yeah, and no GMG here - ordered Aug 21st
damn, i prefer the reversible cover that comes with the standard edition. early reports from the developers (in a thread here on neogaf) said the loot chest would come with both the steelbook and the normal cover. looks like that early info was wrong. didn't really make sense to me at the time but i took their word for it. oh well, i guarantee you i can find someone to swap my steelbook for the standard edition. i love the reversible art on it and the contined suicide theme from the first game.

Sell it and buy from GMG.

Mine says Pre-order ROW too, it was a gift copy from someone though
That doesn't make any sense. I ordered from GMG 2 minutes ago and got a code immediately.

About a game that isn't even out yet. Also there is game discussion in the mix of all these valid complaints. How about you get off your "holier than thou" nonsense.

I keep looking at the site from time to time to see if it pops up there but no luck so far.

This is all the site shows for me:
Has download/view keys option, but when you click, thats all that pops up.
Getting the same thing.

This.
It's smart to get Knoxx out of the way first due to all the annoying driving back and forth
(Though this could be more due to me going out to complete all the missions in that DLC).
Moxxi's DLC gives you a bank to store weapons, but I never made much use of it, anyways.
I really like hearing the business stuff I had no idea that madden was used as an industry indicator.

Two questions:
-thought I'd read a while back the game remembers if you do missions with friends and will ask you if you want different rewards if you go back and solo it.
-when using a skill mod, do you have to have at least 1 point in that skill to take advantage of it?
