Hi everyone    i just wanna hear you, is there some of you guys who have the Blackwatch Uniform from Prototype 2 ?   I've pre-ordered the game in the Radnet Edition at play.com, and i know i pre-ordered it in good time long time before the game came out.  I've received a letter from the post office for two days ago, about the game, so going to get it tomorrow   But.. i've never received an email from play.com with the code for the costume    so.. i'm thinking  can it be  that the code is in the box with the game ? Instead of getting it in the email. ?   If some one got it, how did you guys received your code ?   Thanks in advance

I bought the Radnet editon of the game on launch day, I tryed the code for the costume/avatar but since then the code has never worked. I get the usual error message if a code has been used or not when I go to redeem it.

I never pre-ordered game. I think maybe it's an issue with Activision or something. I have the same problem with a code for an XMB theme from the Hardened Edition of MW3.

Yup, the code is in the box but don't get excited as it doesn't work! Activision know jack about it too so don't bother asking them - they originally thought it didn't go live until May 8th but nope, May 10th and still doesn't work!

Basically it's not been activated or added to store yet or something and it *may* work at some time in the future if they can be bothered to come through with the pre-order promise they made.

By the way, to rub salt into the wound just a bit more, the codes for this item worked just fine in NA and have done since early March...!

Hi D-Star_1 thanks for your reply okay.. hhm sounds wierd, i really hope that it will get fixed soon so all people who got the code, can get their costume. Yeah i think your right about the Activision. Or maybe an bug on the PS store. ? Who knows ? I do hope that you will get your XMB-theme from your MW3.

Hi Retro thank you for your reply oh okay.. what a bummer hhm, we may hope that they will get it fixed soon. I do not hope, that it will happen that it never will get fixed. If so ? I think i'm speaking for all people, when i say i will get really mad if they never fix it.

[fly123]

btw Retro how is the standard with redeem codes. ? How long are they valid for use before they expires ?

[Retro_1973]

This one is valid until 23rd March 2013 so hopefully they will activate it before then!

That's why you haven't seen anyone in EU HOME with the outfit though - the codes just don't work right now.

[fly123]

ah okay.. well then there is lots of time left okay, i see that sucks hope they will fix this issue very soon. I just think i'll wait to use the code, until it's have been fixed. Just to be on the safe side

This isnt the first time Play.com have done something like this either is it. Didnt they con a load of people into buying motorstorm from them or something with the promise of an exlusive avatar and it turns out it was just a boring xmb pic? I cant quite remember but a lot of people were unhappy about the way play.com worded it. 

The sooner these pre order bonus DLC offers vanish the better. Home content should be unlocked via the game, no matter where you buy it from imo. 

[fly123]

Yeah i agree with you Fury, it's much better if they make Home rewards via the games. Then people are more safe to know, that they are getting their rewards. Instead of all the bugs with the codes.
