I didn't pre order because I expected some sort of hassle. I figured with the mass preorders and cancellations, I would get hassled, so I did not bother. Also, I do not plan on picking the game up when it comes out as i am still making my way through the first one. So, yeah, I wanted the beta, but my 'lazy ass' didn't want to have a potential hassle on my hands, or forget about a preorder I would not pick up.
