Zurkiba Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 2) Seriously? I think a staggered EARLY ACCESS launch is a great idea. Just think back to the beta - everyone doing the same quests, everything dead and waiting for a while to respawn so you can do it then trying to turn quests in when so many people around the quest giver etc. You obviously did not play the beta in any form-- The areas are broken up into instances and most story-related quests have their own unique story-instance made for you and your party.

freakuancy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No, what they should have done is sent out an email a week ago that outlined the schedule for each wave. That would have alleviated a lot of people's issues. And what YOU should have done is read the OP where Stephen explained very clearly that there is no set schedule, they are adjusting each wave as they gather useful metrics and adjust accordingly.

Incase you want more information the subject of the mail was: Early Game Access* has begun. It's time to play. I guess i'll see you guys ingame! and keep the hopes up guys and gals <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plandream Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I am a married man, I need access.Please ;p;p;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazual Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Somebody should kill themselves on a livestream and blame bioware. That'll get the waves flowing. LMMFAO!!!! Dude... That would be hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tashohnie Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) What I find annoying is a friend of mine who ordered a 2 weeks ago is playing. I pre ordered on the 21st July, got my code on the 26th and redeemed it yet I still can't get in the game.

dherpin Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No, what they should have done is sent out an email a week ago that outlined the schedule for each wave. That would have alleviated a lot of people's issues. I agree, the frustration from most seems to derive from the lack of information regarding early access, not the early access itself.

Ayami_no_baka Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 You guys need to stop posting here, it's ridiculous. Nobody reads your stuff anyways, posts are moving much too fast - just be quiet, relax, grow up, man up, woman up, chill and wait for your email. There is NOTHING you can do to make it faster so STOP spamming -.- OMG...kids... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergulch Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm just a little sad because I pre-ordered back at the dawn of time but never realized I had to "redeem" my code through the SWTOR website so I didn't actually register my pre-order until November 30th... I'll see you all on the 20th I'm in the exact same boat as you are, I ordered the second that pre-orders were available,but i didn't realize that I needed to enter a code. Did that on Nov 29th. :( But I was fortunate to be a beta tester since October 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awrini Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Does anyone actually know the total number of preorders that there were for SWTOR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagrin Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I love it! Bioware has actually done us all a favor by releasing in waves. Yes, they load tested the servers in beta, but did any of you sit down and think about having 1 million pre-order players all starting at the same time on every server? Can you imagine the wait time for sig mobs and interactions? The ganking of shinies, and general crowdedness of the prologue areas? I for one am glad that they have decided to do it this way. If you have waited for three or so years for the game, wouldn't you want to enjoy the game when you play instead of being frustrated with every other player competing for the same open world areas stuff? Just sayin.....But please keep up the whining, it is amusing. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say... everyone posting today is so emo. But like suckling babies on a *** they will all be cooing in a week. I am not in any way saying that this is not stupid as hell. Just saying it's way overblown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juvir Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 oh my GOD I demand satisfaction!! Sigh. I guess its good, the girlfriend needs one last day of attention before shes on her own for a while. You mean she isn't playing with you??? Mine is..... and even if she wasn't, TOTALLY understands and is happy. She didn't pre-order until a few months ago, I pre-ordered on July 24... she totally expects to lose me until Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redredred Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 The product registration will come with your physical or digital copy of the game. Its not necessary for the early access redemption. If you go My Account >> Preorder and it says something like: "You redeemed your Pre-Order Code and now are registered for the following items: Early Game Access Color Stone (Virtual Item) Download Game Client You can now download the game client and patch the game. Watch for an email invitation from The Old Republic team to begin your Early Access." You'll eventually recieve and e-mail saying that you have early access. Subscriptions won't be set up until actual game release, as we don't need them during the free early access. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeetorDaal Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 For all the July preorders, has anyone just tried logging in prior to receiving an e-mail? Perhaps they're letting people in but there is a delay in sending out the e-mails. They have stated that you will be able to log in before you actually get the e-mail, yes.

DireWolfalpha Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 By the time this gets posted to the forums there will be over a 100 pages of nerd rage!! Wow! ROFLMAO!!! A little ditty for all you nerd ragers out there... me...me.. meeeee Nerd Ragging across the universe.. Boldly going forward Cause we can't find reverse. Nerd Ragging across the universe Boldly going forward Cause we can't find reverse! They (Bioware) said you would get early access to the servers.. Bioware Never said it would be on the first day.... I'm just happy to have the game weather I get to play early or not.. So all the nerd raggers need to chill out and go do something besides the "qq" whine on the forums...
