StarCraft also.

It looks awesome! Nice use of A7X music

I really want to play that mission...

Does it have a briefing video?

So has anyone figured out how to access the bonus mission if it wasn't available in the local retail preorder?

I also got the email, but I've had it on pre-order since last year. Just to be sure I got them to confirm if it applies to existing pre-orders, which it does. They did the same thing with C&C3, also got that tshirt I wish they could offer the codes for the pre-order bonuses though.

I've pre-ordered today through Mighty Ape. Sonic, do you know if the pre order bonuses will apply on our shores?

It works now.

Whatever it will be, I hope they will once again hire Frank K (if it's Generals based they might not).

Yes that's fixed it, it's loading fine now. Thanks!

Is anyone else having trouble getting the main page to load in IE8 lately? I've had the same problem on multiple computers, even fresh installs, vista and w7, haven't tried XP yet. It loads as far down as the row with the twitter link, then stops. The background is present. It says done, with this error. Webpage error details User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; InfoPath.2) Timestamp: Thu, 16 Apr 2009 11:44:30 UTC Message: HTML Parsing Error: Unable to modify the parent container element before the child element is closed (KB927917) Line: 0 Char: 0 Code: 0 URI: http://cncnz.com/ Compatibility mode makes no difference to the problem, but then I've never needed that enabled for cncnz.com. If I recall correctly last time it loaded fine in IE8 the top news article was the C&C95 1.06b patch, if that helps.

This is now mentioned on the official C&C website

Welcome nathancnc, great work on the TFD patch! Chickendippers, if you purchased via EADM, it's easy to do the same thing as nathancnc has. Visit www.findmyorder.com and enter your details. This will lead to an order details page, the Unlock Code on that page is your installation product key.

Wow Sonic that's incredible speed for a NZ connection! Mine was only going at about 60kb/s, perhaps their servers were getting pwned.

Mine is working also, downloading now!

For some reason I can't view that pic (permission error), but if it's the red text error when clicking "view invoice" then yes I've been getting that too. Most of the time it tells me my password is invalid when I try to log in to the order status page, even though it's correct, and I can log in to EA DM/profile page/forum with it fine. Just for kicks I put my retail RA3 serial in to EADM, which activated a DM version, then I downloaded it. Speed was 160kb/s on average. I also tried this with C&C3+KW, but it won't allow it. I'll be picking up RE5 in the morning (it's a pity there wasn't any midnight launches for it here). I considered emailing support, but since we're in the same boat I'll wait and see what they have to say to you on the matter

It says: From what I gather "I have EADM" should be a hyperlink, but it's not. The "I don't have EADM" just links to the EADM installer. The email is also missing the EA logos, as if the pictures haven't loaded. When I check the order status it says submitted. What does yours say? I was reading EA forum and a guy from Aus had this problem, he said they had to cancel his order, then he had to re-order it, then he was able to download it.

Well midnight has been and gone, nothing, logged out and in again, nothing. I got an email yesterday from EA saying it's ready for download... "the little boy waits" (maybe only fellow kiwis will know/remember this line )

I too am waiting for something to occur. I'm leaving EADM logged in, hopefully something will change at midnight.

Yes you can backup the installer, upon download completion it's extracted to a folder with all the installation files in it (much like if you were to browse the RA3 game DVD). I pre-ordered on EA Store NZ a few days ago, got the free 5 year download guarantee pre-order upgrade. The download is 5.3GB (info straight from EA Store).
