WAR (Warhammer Online)

I picked up my copy of Warhammer today from my local gamestop and got it all installed. I tried to set up account but it says I cannot use this key yet! So my question is when do server go live or when can I activate my key any talk of exactly what time? I looked and didnt find anything.

Thursday 12 am.

The game is not officially for sale / release until tomorrow Gamestop for the Lose officially again by confusing customers by allowing copies to be given out early. 

Gotta love how many clusterfraks Gamestop has caused with WAR.  Its really not that hard I mean The Release date is the 18th copies should be only given out on the 18th, shipping should be ensured to have the item arrive on the 18th *sigh* they're worse than the retailers that sold copise of the last harry potter a week early.

You should be able to validate your key if your in NA around midnight...I'm not 100 percent on this its best to check the War Herald & warhammer alliance for the truth.
