Poll Question:
Heroes VI Collectors edition

Well i would like to introduce my post with a story i guess.

On the day of release i got a call from the store where i ordered my collectors edition.
So i get to the store and recieve a pretty big box compared to the Collectors edition of a certain other game i got a week earlier.
Anyways i get it home and take a seat for the Collectors edition and cut away the plastic. after wich the first thing that pops into mind is What a pretty awesome logo ( other then ofcourse the name change )

Then i turn it around a few times and go like how on earth do i open this. i conclude that the logo is blocking the doors of the box. so i pull the outer frame on the left side and to my amazement it comes loose. but the box didnt open so i got a knife and tried to kinda put it under the main logo on the left side but then by accident i pulled the door and i saw that they kinda slide into eachother and it opened.

Inside were a pretty big art book A4 and 160 pages wich was a pretty decent art book, the ring that somehow fits like a glove
ofcourse the game. and the unique DLC champ , weapons and Map.

The only down side was that nowhere was explained how to use the DLC code. the game didnt ask for it on install and Uplay didnt allow it to be entered ether. so in the end i aksed a random person in the chat who told me to click the second button from the top right.
wich worked.

Anyways What do you guys think of it?

I have the digital deluxe edition, which as you may know, has some issues with proper distribution of the extra's.

Welcome here. I hope you enjoy your time!

I think collector edition is fine. Not great, but not bad either.

The biggest flaw it has is that it is available just in certain parts of europe.
I was willing to buy it but I will not go through trouble of international orders.

I also have the collector's edition, but still haven't opened mine since ubisoft haven't send any code for the pre-order content Waiting until I have resolved that issue before I open anything, but by the looks from the unboxing video, then I think it looks awesome.

Why would they send you codes ? You have a physical copy of the game. The codes they sent should only be for the Deluxe Digital version.

Pre-ordered from the ubishop so I would expect, that I would receive the codes by mail. So far I haven't heard anything else.

I also bought the Collector's Edition from the UbiShop. It comes only with a code for the bonus mission and the four bonus heroes, there is unfortunately no additional code for Aksha and Edge of Chaos in it. I contacted the customer support regarding the missing pre-order items (Aksha+Edge of Chaos) but got no answer yet.

@topic: I like the Heroes VI Collector's Edition. It could have contained a few more items (e.g. a map) but I have also seen worse CE's for other games so I'm ok with it.

Got a hold of a ubi-support staff member, who wanted to see my confirmation on a print screen. I think I am slowly starting to reach the end and FINALLY get a hold of Akasha and Edge of Chaos.

I still don't have the codes for Akasha or Edge of Chaos and I pre-ordered the Deluxe (not Collectors).

I don't want to take this thread off topic. I just want to get the word out, as there seems to be no end in sight. I must find a way to contact higher ups at Ubi, maybe Heroes specific project people.

Anyway, on topic. I was sad that both the Collectors Edition and the Michael statue were not offered in the US.

I woulda bought them both.
