No cloth map in Skyrim preorder :(

Sorry if this has been covered. I'm avoiding Skyrim threads because spoilers, but I had to make this lament public.

I was really looking forward to the cloth map, but I just opened my box, and the map is a lie.

It's just paper. It's not even 'clothy' paper. It's just regular old textured parchment paper.

Very disappointing.

Although, if it weren't for the promise of a cloth map, I'd have just preordered on Steam instead for the same price, so it's not a big deal, I guess.... but still very disappointing since I've been looking forward to adding a new cloth gaming map to my collection since I put in the preorder months ago. :/

    I didn't even know that it was going to be a cloth map, I'm just happy that it isn't the crappy poster material that the other companies use.

    Im in the same boat, register here only to post something... ya pre ordred were supposed to get you a cloth map, while the map they gave us is not the usuall paper-poster that you get its still paper-issh to me, Im sorry but you can play with words all you want but that is not a full cloth map... a good example would be the Collector Edition of Dragon Age Origins, that was a cloth map, a real one... anyway doesnt change anything about the game but still a bit disapointed, like you, one of the reason I pre-ordered a hard copy was for the map --- and the dragon of course, btw I never realized that the damm thing was to be so huge, was surprised when I receved the package :) anway still a good game, enjoy people

    I would have to concur with CB on the lament of the lack of cloth map... I preordered from BB specifically because of this promised map, only to realize that it wasn't cloth at all...
