Hey everyone, it’s your boy back at it again, and today I’m diving into my experience with pre-ordering “Helldivers 2” and snagging that sweet bonus content. It’s been a wild ride, and I’m here to share all the nitty-gritty details with you guys.
Getting Started
So, first things first, I saw all the hype about “Helldivers 2” and decided to jump on the bandwagon. I mean, who doesn’t love some good old-fashioned alien butt-kicking action? I went ahead and found a key for the game on one of those key-selling websites. You know the drill – gotta save a few bucks where you can. Then bought a Steam key from a third-party site because, you know, gotta save those bucks. I’ve got it through and started my pre-order journey.
The Pre-Order Process
I opted for the pre-order, mostly because I was curious about the bonus content. I went ahead and selected the Standard Edition of the game. There was also a Super Citizen Edition available, but honestly, I wasn’t sure if the extra goodies were worth the extra cash. I was primarily interested in the base game, and the Standard Edition seemed like the right choice for me.
- Chose my edition: Standard Edition, because it had everything I really wanted without breaking the bank.
- Paid up: Got my credit card out and made the purchase. Pretty standard stuff.
- Waited: This was the hardest part! I was so hyped to play.
The Wait
Man, the wait for the game to drop was brutal. I kept checking my Steam library, hoping to see it pop up. It was like waiting for Christmas morning as a kid, except I had no idea when Santa was going to show up. I did some digging around online, reading forums and stuff, and it seemed like most people were in the same boat.
Release Day!
Finally, release day arrived! I woke up early, like a kid on Christmas morning, and fired up my PC. Lo and behold, “Helldivers 2” was there, ready to go. I hit that download button so fast, I swear I almost broke my mouse.
Where’s My Bonus Content?
Once the game was downloaded, I jumped right in, eager to check out my pre-order bonus. But… nothing. No special armor, no nothing. I was like, “What the heck?” I checked my inventory, my armory, everywhere. Zilch. Nada. I started to panic a little. Did I do something wrong? Was my key messed up?
Figuring It Out
I hopped back online and started searching for answers. Turns out, I wasn’t the only one with this problem. A bunch of other players who pre-ordered were also missing their bonus content. There was a lot of speculation going around. Some folks were saying that the bonus content wouldn’t show up until the game’s official release. Others thought it was a bug or something.
Finally Got It!
After what felt like an eternity( a few days really), there was an update for the game. I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. And guess what? The bonus content finally showed up! I got my sweet TR-7 Ambassador of the Brand DLC, TR-62 Knight DLC, and the TR-9 Cavalier of Democracy DLC. It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. The wait was worth it. Those armor sets looked sick! It’s always satisfying when things finally work out the way they’re supposed to, right?
My Two Cents
So, yeah, that’s my story about pre-ordering “Helldivers 2”. It was a bit of a rollercoaster, but in the end, I got what I paid for. If you’re thinking about pre-ordering, just be prepared for a potential wait, and don’t freak out if your bonus stuff doesn’t show up right away. It might take a little while to sort itself out. But hey, at least we got some cool armor sets out of it, right?
Anyway, that’s all for now. Stay tuned for more of my gaming adventures!
