Double XP weekend only for those who pre-ordered?

Posted by KTPhoenix on Nov 16, 2012 5:49 AM

I honestly dont care, but for those who do, I believe that the double xp weekend from the 16th-18th is for those who pre-ordered this game and also got the Nuketown 2025 map.

 

Just going by what I saw.

    I think that is how it works, in fact from how I read it that is how it works. Only those that preordered the game and used the code in the game for the map get dxp this weekend.

        Played it a few times, not really that great, the zombies or the mp map. Will leave it myself for giggles when I want to be amused and not care what happens.

    Pretty sure anybody who has the game will get double XP...

     

    ... by pre-ordering, you assured yourself you will have a copy and be able to play. Listen carefully to the language.

     

    It's called marketing.

      No mate... you have to have Nuketown 2025 downloaded to get the double xp weekend.. anyone who hasn't got it then it's too bad for them

        And was not Nuketown included in copies that were bought day one and not pre-ordered?

         

        Yep.

         

        It's very, very unlikely to be limited to only those who pre-ordered.

      ^ I agree, this will most likely be how it is. In the past they had double xp playlists only certain people could see, but as long as they hosted the party, anyone could get double xp.

        Yeah the pre orders where sold as (with bonus nuketown 2025, and double xp weekend 16-18)...

         

        So the only way to find out who pre-ordered is the nuketown 2025 map im guessing. They cant give it to everyone as thats breaking selling guidelines (not sure what the proper word/term is there, sorry)

    I bought my copy from Tesco. No pre-order. Got a code for the Nuketown 2025 DLC anyway. I assumed everybody ended up getting them?

      "*Download Nuketown 2025 for access to Double XP Launch Weekend." that's from the black ops 2 website. Does not say limited to only pre orders. I purchased a copy yesterday, it had the code to DL Nuketown 2025... So I would say your good to go with double xp weekend.

    its probably like these games with the "preorder to upgrade to limited edition" and then all the first batch are limited edition whether you preordered or not

    For awhile every new copy will get the Nuketown DLC. My wife is a manager at a game store and said that a bunch of stores were bitching because it was suppose to be a preorder bonus for only a few stores (gamestop, bestbuy and some others)
