Hmm, Found a guy with Collectors edition in his inventory, but it doesn't say V1 or V2!
What gives? are you sure? I haven't asked him but his thread was made long before the change.
EDIT: found one with standard version that says V2. V2 is the new one, correct?

Well, the hats are going to be worth quite a lot now.

Naw...it's V1 and V2. Current pre-orders were named V2 for some reason...I'm sure if V1 was activated even today, they'd still get tf2 items.

When they announced the "in-game currency", they killed all my interest in the game

This same thing happened to Bioshock Infinite, all the rewards were gone, and the page was only showing the details about Industrial Revolution. The page changed 2-3 days later. Let's wait a few more days if the page changes, if not, too bad for the people who wanted the hats and the free copy of war-something.

In game currency was in the game far before SEGA bought the IP.

The development of the game didnt change at all if that is what you are afraid of. Furthermore, SEGA has been quite good for PC lately, and they are pretty damn good with the genre as can be seen with the Total War series. So yeh, the game will be as good as if it was published by THQ.

You do understand that they do not own the rights to some of the previous rewards and would have no way of giving them to people. Would it have been better if they kept them up and told you on launch day that they cant honor the promised rewards? I really don't get why anyone would rage over this, you had to see it coming.

I'd get it if they'd want to change the reward for tier 2 (DoW:RII) but there's no reason for changing the other rewards! Plus, I'm sure they could have gotten Dawn of War:R for pre-order bonuses even if they don't own the rights.
What about TF2 hats? What about the ingame currency?! etc...

I activated it without even a second thought because I had thought the pre-orders were the same. It was only until after activated the gift did I go to the store page and was like "WTF? Where'd the thingies go?". lolz :(

Really? XD
Edit: Just checked...don't have the TF2 items...:(

Considering Sega is not THQ, all I can say is DUH.
If they do not own rights to what was promised by THQ as pre-order bonuses, they couldn't very well give them to you.
As far as collectors/digital deluxe editions, can't begin to fathom the reasoning behind not offering them.

I'm just gonna copy my reply that I made to someone else, cause he said the same thing as you did:

DoW: R = money + time & agreement with whomever got the DoW ip
TF2 hats = money + time & additional agreement with Valve on top of base agreement (Valve/Steam distribution is cheaper than full Steam Works agreement)
Sega just spent a good chunk of money just buying the ip, giving away additional content already developed is essentially free.

I was just about to pre-order this game when I noticed they changed all of the Pre-order bonuses!
Yeah, Everything! Thanks SEGA!! -_-
No more TF2 Hats! No Dawn of War Retribution for tier 2 bonus! and No in-game currency to buy DLCs with (Tier 3)!
Sega just saved their selves some money, cause No way in hell I'm pre-ordering this game right now, I'll for a sale (probably on summer).
Store Page
PC Gamer's news about this change: clicky
EDIT: Oh and I forgot, Collectors Edition is no longer available either! Sega must hate money!
