For those that claim to have "missed it" by buying your card earlier - if you happen to have an Asus card, just ask them. I've had success with them several times over the past years, and recently getting Doom despite being almost a month early than the promo limit

Mmh nice, i'll try to do that with my 1070 FE from Gigabyte.

I got the STRIX but I bought it around.. July or August? I doubt I'll get it but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask.

June actually. Something tells me I won't get it.

 

[Corpekata]

Alright, I got rejected via Newegg email but a call got me it fairly painlessly. So if you're a Newegg cusotmer, try a call.

I purchased 5 days ago though (and I spend too much money there) so YMMV.

 

[Gitaroo]

this code is for window store I am guessing? Not region lock hopefully

 

[MisterAnderson]

Will Gears 4 have cross play?

 

[Akoi]

Will Gears 4 have cross play?

Yes, and split screen.

I just sent an email to sager... Crossing my fingers...

 

[Corpekata]

Will Gears 4 have cross play?

Competitive no, everything else (and private competitive), yes.

 

[Shadowhaxor]

So free GoW game is that reason? lol XD

I would keep that 980Ti tbh.

Nah, I've been looking to get rid of this guy for a while now. I wanna do SLI 1070's or a 1080.

SLI is trash. Go for single Titan X. It will be a huge upgrade from 980ti.

If you can't afford it, I would still recommend a heavily overclocked 1080 instead.

 

[R10Neymarfan]

Ngreedia has a bundled deal with this game....

Nvidia biased performance?

we gamefaqs now

 

[Corpekata]

Good lord Win 10 store wants 80 GB of room to install. Not sure if that's the size itself or extra room in needs for the process.

 

[Vuze]

RIP no free code for me. It was worth a try =)

 

[Ballistik]

Well I wanted to upgrade next year and I'm buying Gears 4.... but I don't like being forced to do it now. Nooo

 

[BRocknRolla]

Anyone know if you'd get the code if you do an EVGA step-up to one of those cards?

 

[NightMystic]

Just got a GTX 1080 on Friday from Microcenter. Do I contact NVIDIA or Microcenter support?

Microcenter.

 

[Heigic]

Guess it will be US only. I would be tempted.

 

[djplaeskool]

Damn.
Had my 1070 for a month and a half.
The plight of the early adopter is eternal...

 

[sir_dany12]

Is the code play anywhere?

 

[Soltype]

I got my 1080 in july, is there a way I can still get this?

 

[Clint Beastwood]

Is the code play anywhere?

Yes, it's in the OP and in the link

What do people not understand about Play Anywhere? It would defeat the whole purpose of this initiative

 

[FaintDeftone]

This is what I was waiting for. 1070 is bought.

 

[Corpekata]

Depends on the retailer. Doesn't hurt to ask. Someone reported luck with August at Amazon.

So I just call Newegg?, what do I say?

 

[mysocksarepink]

my gf bought a laptop yesterday with a 1070

how does she go about getting the key?



LPC Digital was the site

 

[Two Words]

Yawn, probably the worst game to pick to package with them.

It could have been No Man's Sky.

Ngreedia? I'm dying.

I'd try email or chat first.

Given how far out you were, it's a long shot so I would just play up that you're a loyal customer that spends a lot of money and would like to see the promotion extended to you. Of course that will be helped by if you ARE a frequent customer. If you've only ever ordered that GPU, they might be swayed less. Maybe mention how you didn't get any promo at all, something something early adopter, yadda yadda.

Maybe in your case wait a day or two, with things like this places often get a lot of demand and then are told of a general response, while early on it might be the employee playing it by ear. Might be easier to get by if they've got a generic response on how to handle requests.

Email the retailer. Judging by their site, it's not active there yet (they still have Paragon promos listed) so I would probably wait a day or two for when they start listing GoW 4 in the Customize Now section of their laptops.

Got my strix 1080 last july. How do I contact Asus?

 

[Helznicht]

1080 still runs for $600- $700 correct. This would make me pull the trigger on my 970 replacement but it's outside my self imposed $400 + sell 970 card budget. I was assuming I could only get $ 150 out my 970 if I was lucky.

 

[Tecnniqe]

I was gonna wait for that TI tho...

 

[Dartastic]

Bought my 1070 way back at the end of June. On chat with Newegg now. Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Newegg.

EDIT - OH FUCK YEAH. NEWEGG DA GAWD

 

[Fracas]

Damn, I bought mine from an Amazon seller in July. GGWP

 

[Acidote]

Bought my 1070 by the end of July. Tough luck. I guess I'll try to grab a cheap key.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Well I guess this is the only uwp game I will own.

 

[Dartastic]

Bought my 1070 by the end of July. Tough luck. I guess I'll try to grab a cheap key.

I did too. Newegg is hooking me up as we speak. Did you buy from Newegg?

P.S. Buy graphics cards from Newegg. They're the best.

 

[golem]

Both Newegg and Amazon have hooked me up in the past with Nvidia cards, strangely Newegg wouldnt with AMD.

 

[jrcbandit]

Damn, I got my card straight from EVGA in late July so I'll have to buy a code. Wonder if Xbox owners will drive up the price since they are used to paying $60 or more for digital releases lol.

 

[Beck]

Man, I picked up a 1060 last week. Had I known this, I might have waited and upgraded to a 1070.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

Bought mine in July from Jet.com for under $350. Great deal, but I clearly won't be able to contact them and I doubt if they know what i am even talking about.

I'll try to contact them and Asus though.

Was this through text chat? And what did you ask/say? Bought mine in early July and I'm hoping to get a copy.

 

[Valtýr]

Which 1070 is generally considered to be the one to get?

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Which 1070 is generally considered to be the one to get?

There is no "generally considered."

You should be fine with any brand, although I have never heard a bad thing about EVGA and if I had to pick one, I'd go with them.

 

[CyberPunked]

WTF ordered a gtx 1070 for a friend's build yesterday. Got a 1080 a couple of months ago, I don't even remember getting a promotion with that one.

Because you didn't.

 

[BHK3]

You got people already in this thread offering to buy codes, prices are gonna be pretty high I'm guessing. RIP The days of $15 The Division and R6:Siege codes

 

[nekkid]

Will the keys support Play Anywhere? In for cheap XB1 copy if so.

 

[Dartastic]

Was this through text chat? And what did you ask/say? Bought mine in early July and I'm hoping to get a copy.

Yep. Sure was. Didn't say anything special, really. I just was very polite.

 

[Avid Reading Horse]

Newegg is giving away codes for cards from effing June? And amazon isn't giving me any love on a 1600 dollar order from 20 hours before the promotion that hasn't even arrived here yet. Fail.

 

[paolo11]

Question about MS games. Are these DRM free games like GOG?
