"Here’s the deal. We are running a Public Beta, and you will have many ways to get in. The best way which will give you the earliest access to the beta will involve a pre-order program that should be announced soon, (for those of you who don’t know what pre-ordering is, you essentially reserve your copy with five dollars down, and that five dollars will go towards the price of the game when it releases).
For all of you folks outside of North America are up in arms because Qore is NA only, please don’t worry. This is one of many ways to get in, and we plan to make the beta available in all territories, as we need to test all servers and worldwide play. Further details on how to get into the beta will be forthcoming."

Did you not read the little bottom paragraph? They'll have the beta running for ALL territories. Anywhere, and everywhere. If you can pre-order in your country, you can get into the beta.

I hope qore people get it the same day as other people, it will make the servers more populated, and more fair as well i think

It may end up like the SOCOM beta where Qore beta subscribers get it two weeks after pre-order beta users. That what I'm going to guess.

Well I pre-order games but from the internet, and in fact I've got my copy already pre-ordered so shouldn't that mean that I get the code too? im with ShopTo.net if that helps?

I would contact them when this promotion becomes available. If they say tough, cancel your pre-order and move onto somewhere that will get you a code =]
I've had $20 on two copies since before last October sometime. If gamestop does not have the codes, I'll simply pull my pre-orders and go elsewhere.
Although, I have the years worth of qore so I'm not to worried about it. My girlfriend might be pissed if she can't get into though.

Someone posted a link to an article last week where they said pre-order people would get it before Qore people. It would sorta make sense as Insomniac would benefit most from pre-orders rather than Qore episodes being sold so they would want the most people to pre-order to get it instead of buying Qore.
This is allready being discusses in this thread:

Nope, you have to use pre-order program beta as provided by and approved by developers of the game. Just like MGS4, you could preorder game but in order to get beta you had to go to approved retailer or buy that $5.00 beta disc.
