No Pre-Order Bonuses for YOU!

Aerothorn on 24/8/2011 at 01:44

As evidenced by (http://www.amazon.com/Pre-Order-bonus-not-included/forum/Fx2VDPND4HPU7EN/Tx27VK8K9FJ7Q7Z/1/ref=cm_cd_dp_ef_tft_tp?_encoding=UTF8&asin=B004EIOH80&store=videogames) this thread at Amazon.com, Americans who pre-ordered the Augmented Edition have not been given the pre-order bonuses (and in some cases, falsely told that it was for standard editions only). As far as I'm concerned, this is another reason to stop with this "including content on little pieces of paper" nonsense, but we'll see how it all pans out. I think I'll somehow survive without my Tactical Enhancement Pack, but it's a shame to see the launch marred like this.

Yeah. I ordered it on Steam and I still seem to have the standard edition in spite of paying for the augmented edition. Oh, well.

Wow I'm glad I switched to the Steam version then. At least I got some TF2 stuff. However...

It's a blessing in disguise. I'm playing through without it and it's much more fun without the 10k credits and auto hacks that were in the leak.

the Steam version

There is no other version.

I'm pretty sure anyone with even half a brain would be able to discern that he meant 'the version sold via Steam' in this context.

I know.

Then ... don't try to score pedantic points? I got nothin'.

Just venting frustration.

From what I've read, if you bought the Augmented Edition from Steam the extras aren't installed right away. You have to go to Library > Click the drop-down menu (probably set to All Games) > Tools.

Here's a question for anyone who's playing the game. I've been hearing that all the in-game pre-order bonuses (except for the extra mission) can still be obtained in the game at a later point. Apparently, what the bonuses do is unlock these items right away so you don't have to wait. So you will eventually be able to obtain all the weapons as you progress, even without the bonuses.

Can anyone confirm if this is true or not?
