I have. Key to the City event, which I got the key by email. Didn't have to pre-order to get it, they just emailed it to me. Which was weird, but nice.
It's pretty decent, a lot of interesting ways to play it. You can craft decals and design a jacket you purchased and then sell it on the marketplace. The more you mess around with designing a car - by painting it and etcetera - and wardrobes you can upgrade your Tuner and Fashionista levels which unlocks more clothes and primitives. I'm a business criminal man.
Haven't done enough of the Action Districts to warrant any real opinion. I just freaking hate the constraints they applied to the 32 Bit OS users and those with only 2 gigs of ram. I have four gigs, but only a 32 Bit because Windows 7 won't let me install a 64 Bit. Luckily though I found a way to remove it.
I enjoyed it enough to pre-order it using a promo I got from EA Games and purchased through the EA Store. You can't enter your pre-order key anyways, not until after the Key to the City event is over... that's the word on the forums anyways.
And is the Escapist going to start a Clan or Gang?
