I am from the UK and after watching the unboxing video i am wondering now if there is a cloth map at all, and i can find nowhere in which this has been confirmed/denied. Is there anyone who can confirm this at all, because to be honest if i dont get my cloth map i will just go to the midnight launch and get it there instead.

I know Shopto.net and Amazon.co.uk are offering the cloth map, but you're right. I haven't seen it confirmed anywhere but there. Not even GAME appear to be offering it and, despite having problems recently, they tend to be the retailer that grabs the special offers.

I have pre-ordred mine from amazon so i am just going to hope that i recieve it next friday, it seems strange that is isnt more heavily advertised, i mean for me this is something that made me jump at the opportunity to own it the map quality is excellent for the elder scrolls. To have on in cloth for me just means i can frame it and display it

The place I preordered it from mentions that pre-orders comes with a map of the Skyrim world.

They have a guaranteed release-date delivery program. You just have to make sure you select that option before you finalize your order. I'm guessing this also depends on the country where you're from. I'm from the U.S.

Also, for those from the United States that have used release-date delivery.. How reliable is it? Have you guys received your game on release date? I googled it and most, if not all people received their release-date delivery on time with rare cases where some people didn't get it on time.

I remember when certain games came with cloth maps as a normal part of the package. No preorders necessary :(.

If in the UK and looking for a hard copy of the game on PC, I should let you know I have pre-ordered the game from bybygames.com for £23.99 on PC. Couldn't find cheaper, and they emailed me to say they have contacted their supplier to confirm they will get the bonus burlap maps for allpre-orders.

Generally, people in this thread are correct. As what retailer is going to say they won't get a map for every pre-order? Sure, the Amazon's of this world will get them. But I would rather save £4 on the game and take a chance! :)

Pre-orders from certain stores will get you a premium cloth map. I'm not sure about the Collector's Edition though.

I have ordered a few games from Amazon and chosen release-date delivery and have received every order on the day of release. I'm looking forward to the 11th.

The cloth map is included in the package separately, not in the game box. Bethesda did this with Brink's bandana earlier this year, for example.

Good to know. :) Either way, if I don't get it for some incredible reason on release-date, I'll buy it off direct2drive for $54, and ship the amazon.com copy back to them. I'm not going to waste the entire weekend while everyone else gets to play the game. :P

Ozgameshop have run out of cloth maps for any AUssies, NZers who ordered. D: Check ya emails, you'll either get a full refund if you request it, or a $5 voucher for ozgameshop. Getting skyrim for technically $38 is pretty nice :)

Sounds like a good plan. Amazon is really good about returns, too, so either way you should be good. :)
