Another Perfect World scam. This time through Alienware.

[Ham the Terrible]

They were trying to get new players or get other players to come back, so at alienware they offered a pack for free. Wasted some of my limited bandwidth downloading the game (10gb+) only to find out they gave Alienware expired codes to give away.

google the keywords: neverwinter online promo code.
first result: http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Promotional_Item_Giveaway_Codes
either scroll down to Promotional Code List - ENDED Promotions,
or just check out the Promotional Code List - OPEN Promotions.
download/update the ARC game launcher, log in with your NWO account, click the ARC icon in the upper left corner, redeem the working promotion codes, or test the codes you find somewhere else, without downloading the game itself.

About Alienware, they had another big "giveaway" going on between christmas and new year, but what a surpise, the registration to the Newsletter worked just fine, but not the entry to the giveaway... i tried it with different browsers, same result.

Just guessing here, but Alienware either only gote a limited amount of keys, ran out of new codes, didn't bother to remove the NWO giveaway from their web page and are now sending out the same keys again, or you can only use 1 code per account, and you allready have activated such a code before.

Not sure where the "scam" is, since you can find a list of working promo codes within a few minutes...

It was a new Alienware Arena giveaway. I got a code in the mail. Tried it on both the page and on Arc. It says it's 'expired'.

The Alienware Arena email telling me it was started came Saturday night. I got in on it immediately. Got the code in my email.

The scam is that they're trying to get people to download and try the game and buy stuff (because you're required to buy stuff if you want to get anywhere in the game). They offer freebies but give nothing.

Write this issue into the official NWO forums, maybe a CM can give a DEV a nudge into the direction of that Alienware promotion code problem, and they figure something out.

And i don't know about you, but i can get anywhere in NWO without buying "stuff".
- invoke, do professions, run dungeons/skirmishes twice per day
- level 30+ start getting the first boons from the Tyranny of Dragons campaign
- level 61/65 get some rare armor from the AH for AD, and start running vigilance quests
- level up to 70 get the artifact off-hand weapon from Sgt. Knox for free, get the artifact main-hand weapon from Spinward Rise through questing, refine your artifact weapons to rare
- get rare level 70 armor, rank 5+ enchantments, and some cheap armor/weapon enchantment from the AH for AD
- optional: get into a guild for the guild boons
- get your boons from Dread Ring and Sharandar, work your way through Icewind Dale boons, and then continue to Well of Dragons
- do the daily quest/demonic heroic encounters/the two new skirmishes for demonic resources
- when you have enough resources gathered, buy the 4 pieces of Underdark armor, but get the Underdark set of pants+shirts for your class from the AH for AD
- start running the Demogorgon raid
- upgrade your equipment with better enchantments
- start running the epic Demorgorgon raid
and there is not much left above the epic Demogorgon raid.

and all you have to do is log in, and claim the free items.

And Winter Festival is still running
http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/neverwinter/news/detail/9695273
a parcel per day for free, and up to 2 gifts of simril to exchange with other players for free too.

My personal loot this far, 9 respec tokens, 1 purple and 1 green companion, and tons of other things from these gifts.
And not to forget, i bought a lot of epic companions from the AH for less then 50k AD a piece... those companions are normally around 150k/250k a piece.

Not to burst your pessimism but I got that bundle, I got the dread king title. Sorry you didn't get one. If you really want a title, humble bundle has a better one, for $5 donation for a good cause, you get bundles for multiple games including neverwinter (Neverwinter Noble title) and some other stuff and a hoverboard and house for wildstar.
