master_tarix Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) What is the possibility of them sending invites on Saturday and Sunday? I don't believe I have ever seen BW/EA announce/launch something huge on a weekend. I guess I am just worried that they will halt invites Friday night and resume Monday or everyone will be invited before the weekend. The weekend beta tests were done entirely on the weekend. The final stress test weekend included a system exactly like Early Access. Edited December 14, 2011 by master_tarix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeroXs Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Great idea. Although I believe September didn't have many pre-orders (which is when I pre-ordered) so hopefully they'll get tagged onto Augusts batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juki Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 The weekend beta tests were done entirely on the weekend. The final stress test weekend included a system exactly like Early Access. Right but they always started sending invites on a weekday and ended on a weekday. It allowed them to fully support it on the weekend and test themselves. Question refers to whether or not they will SEND invites on the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocoJediman Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Just something to think about as I know the dates aren't set but we need to consider the fact that most pre-orders occurred when it was first announced, and then dwindled down significantly from there until a more significant rise recently, I'm guessing.

LocoJediman Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 also, there have been 916,490 Preorders by Dec 3rd according to Torocast. maybe that can help with the estimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhemlan Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Question: How does one find a wife who likes Star Wars and would actually be interested in playing this game? Was she flying on a winged unicorn slaying dragons with Mjolnir at the end of a triple rainbow?? lol. My fiance is thrilled. I bought him a copy for Christmas and bought myself one as well since we're both into Star Wars and PC games. As for where he found me...he picked me up in a bar.

As someone who ordered in september and is hoping for an invite in a few hours, the fact that someone from JULY! didnt even get in yet is very disheartening.

Kourage Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Today, we're inviting many more people to play The Old Republic - more than yesterday, and over a much greater time span. As explained yesterday, our initial pre-order rush was over a very short span (about a week). Today we'll be inviting well beyond July, but again, we're remaining cautious as we send each email wave. We're currently planning on sending four waves of email invites today of equal size. We're going to get them out as fast as we can, while monitoring player counts and server population. I'll update this thread when each wave is sent. You can also follow our official Twitter account for notification. Wave One was sent at 8AM CST (6AM PST / 9AM EST / 2PM GMT / 3PM CET). Posted 9:18am EST Email invite waves for today, 12/14 Edited December 14, 2011 by Kourage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
