Default SHIV limited exclusive pre-order

Nope, not for those of us who do not reside in the US or Canada, bad luck? No, just plain stpidity, as any other site that sells merchandise is set up for most countries, and will ship to most. Ubi have decided to only release the edition with all the goodies to the US and Canadian citizens.
Why did they bother asking us what we wanted in the box then? Or does somebody here know more

This reeks of arrogance if true. (I know its true that at the moment only US and Canadians can preorder, but it MUST be a mistake)

As you have pointed out Huey, why the **** set up a big "What do you want?"-thingy if only selected parts of the world would benefit? I wouldnt have bothered voting if I knew there would be no chanse for me getting my mits on it.

Oh, and talk about alienating alot of the fanbase ... almost the entire world!

Don't fell to badly guys. I for got my username and password on ubi so
tried to open a new login acct. on different email address and it wouldn't
accept new password. Kept giveing me password error in red. Gave up .

ps. Got the problem solved but after alittle thought didn't preorder.

edit: I also don't understand if a limited special edition is $49.99 what is a plain jane going to cost ? If it's the same price or alittle less for less stuff that should come in the game re: manuals , maps they just lost a customer. I don't need any game that bad. These are my feelings on the matter as after reading alot of posts from supportive ubi kaleuns that
won't get a shot at a limited edition because of shipping policies. Ive always beleived in fair play and this situation isn't right. I can easily afford the limited game but, not at the expence of my dignity.

Hey, Huey - you obviously haven't read my last post in the SH4 Packaging Info thread.

The Good News: people in Australia can pre-order one of two SH4 packages from GamesWarehouse, one for $79.95 (http://www.gameswarehouse.com.au/lon...p?gameid=13911) and the Collector's Edition for $89.95 (http://www.gameswarehouse.com.au/lon...p?gameid=13990). But at least we get to pre-order something, unlike SH3.

And we get a pen!


The Bad News: I've asked GamesWarehouse to clarify with their supplier but we seem to be getting packaging more like the European release than the US release, except we don't have the option of the "Super Collector's Edition" because we don't have an Ubisoft online store. So we're only getting somewhat shafted instead of totally.
