Mirriwah Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) HERE'S HOW MUCH EARLY ACCESS TIME YOU WILL GET! People redeeming there code bewteen: July-August: 7 days August-Septemper: 6 days September-October: 5 days October-November: 4 days November-December: 3 days December 1-5: 2 days December 5-10: 1 day Wow I gave these people my money early for a whole day? **** everything about this. Sure is fun being a second-class citizen getting ROFLstomped by level 50s a whole TWENTY FOUR HOURS before everybody else does! Oh boy! So glad I forked over $60 of my hard-earned money for that great honor. Edited December 13, 2011 by Mirriwah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominickz Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Oh my god, seriously I thought this place would get better with the lock out. Jesus people if your not in yet relax its a freakin game. this is getting old, your either in EA or your just trolling they seriously need to step it up, EA should be rolling all the invites today at least. 1 hour is enough time to hit lvl 8-10 for the casual player, then they move on. No reason not to do waves every hour. And hell some places are ghost towns from what I see on my brothers screen who's in EA Like really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkleav Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Why are there no eu servers online, are we not getting early acces??? They are up they're trying to fix the server list on the server status page, they're currently in amongst the US servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash-X Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 HERE'S HOW MUCH EARLY ACCESS TIME YOU WILL GET! People redeeming there code bewteen: July-August: 7 days August-Septemper: 6 days September-October: 5 days October-November: 4 days November-December: 3 days December 1-5: 2 days December 5-10: 1 day Why are people thinking they have it set up like this? It all depends on how smooth things are going Stephen tweeted yesterday. If things are going great then everyone should be in on Thursday. No reason to hold Decemeber people back just because. If they do that's lame because they are basically punishing people who pre-ordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wikkod Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I see my posting of: July = 13TH Aug = 14TH Sept = 15TH Oct = 16TH Nov = 17TH Dec = 18th Resulting in people doing EXACTLY what would be expected when dates are posted. They whine like children that its not right because X and Y got in and the E-Mail nitpicking. This is why BW will not post dates for consumption with a community made up of fools. Your logic only fails more then your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HayesC Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Why are there no eu servers online, are we not getting early acces??? Eu servers are mixed into the US list, and have "N/A" as the timezone. I reported this to Rockjaw on twitter about 2 hours ago, I am sure they are aware.

Liavain Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I have a question- Is Early game access tied to Guild Launch perhaps? I have been assigned "The Ebon Hawk" as the server my guild has been created on and claimed my preorder code on the 21st of July. My family has, due to code mixups, claimed preorder codes at different dates. My code redemption page lists that I claimed my code on the 25th, which is not true. However, one of my family members (which is one of the 4 of my guild) claimed their code on the 25th. So... Is it because my guild has 4 members, and the latest one was claimed on the 25th, that MY code date was shifted from the 21st to the 25th? If so, this does suck. So, anyone from "The Ebon Hawk" get in yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numericalerror Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 July 29th in today please. D: This. Plus a guy in my guild who pre-ordered the 22nd got in on the last wave. So I suspect in the next few waves we might get in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoDeViLzzz Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 So the reports of people who put the code in for Dec. or Nov. and playing in the 1st early access waves are bs ? As for me playing anytime soon I don't see my 1st week of Oct. late to the party *** getting to play earlier than Fri. and probably won't be in til Sat. at 12:00 am or whatever.

Busacharger Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Jesus didn't you read what he said? or do you just not understand? That information isn't AVAILABLE because they're releasing waves as they get performance metrics from the server loads. You're asking them to magically know how the servers are going to perform and when they'll be comfortable adding huge numbers of new people. Do you not comprehend this? Or are you just one of those people who never defrags and has 4 inches of toolbars on his IE window? Look I began writing this when this FIRST was posted and when I posted there were already a ton of responses...and secondly how bout you sit down and relax, christ you act as though I just pee'd in your cheerios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtt Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I think I pretty much got in on the first wave. There were only 12 people in my shard on Frostclaw. Loving it so far, many visible improvements over the last weekend beta! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noreal Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I dont understand,i have redeem my preoder code like 5 months ago.I have acces today,right now exactly,but i cant login.I have to redeem product code but i dont have a product yet so whats happening?

Shuurajou Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) It would be good to know if EU & USA waves, whilst being sent at the same time, are independent of one another. For example, if USA had 2x the code redemptions on the 21st it doesn't hold back EU player waves starting for people who redeemed on the 22nd/23rd.

Harewood Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Anyone else sat watching the Saga on BR, waiting for their email? Big love Stephen & the crew! Info has been clear, honest and frequent. Continuing good luck for the rest of the launch! PS, when will I get my email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodokai Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I can't believe how big of cowards and complete wusses Bioware is being. Are they really THAT scared there servers will crash? With 100 up already? I mean jesus christ, look at Rifts launch. Rifts early game access launched, and almost immediately, 1,000,000 people were trying to log in all at once. To counter this, Rift started cramming out new servers fast to adequately deal with all of these people. Hey, things leveled out, everything worked, and no server crashes (that i remember, its been a while, but i'm pretty sure there wasn't). Then they offered free server xfers once a week later on so that friends who didnt get to roll on the same servers got a chance to hook back up. It all worked out swimmingly, and they are still pretty successful. Enter you, Bioware, who, with your extremely shoddy management and poorly advertised "Early Game Access", have pretty much tripped over a branch whilst trying to walk down the path of MMOs, instead of trying to start with a jog. Hell, you already have a leg up on Rift with 50 US and 50 EU servers ready to roll, with the capability of making more. And then you thank us for patience and "helping you warm-up the servers"? I'm pretty sure we did that already with that beta weekend. Please proceed to grow a pair and actually let us into the game. We have waited long enough. Can you say QFT? Rift early acc was smooth as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morfran Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Its funny that people are saying that Bioware will lose customers because of this. They're letting us in early. They didn't have to but they are. I'll be happy whenever I get my invite. Now I have to stop restarting the game hoping the playing button is lit up and study for calculus.

Darth_Kotex Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 regardless of "when" someone pre-ordered thier game should have absolutely no bearing at all. There was never any mention of this when we all bought the game. So the $100 I spent on pre-ordering the "CE" now grants me a day, or two, or perhapse three, or four days less of early game play than anyone else? Why? Because you want to "Ramp up your servers slowly"?? I call "BS"... how many years have you guys had to make sure you had enough hampsters in your servers to make a smooth launch? Also.... this is just the early access customers trying to log in Bioware.... What the heck are you gonna do on the actual official game launch day when the disc's hit the stores? Tell them they can install the game, but we will let you all log in one week at a time? Seriously disappointed Bioware.... I mean.... really.... wow.... what a let down this whole "early access" thing has turned out to be. The QQ is stronggggggg with this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yechidah Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) The Bioware crew have done a great favor to us by allowing us early access (sure that's common practice but not a requirement). So grow up, stop whining and let things settle in. Come Dec x you'll be playing anyway. BioWare did us a favour? I love BioWare and its games as much as anyone else here, but it's a company that makes money from consumers in return for a product. It doesn't do anyone a favour. Early Game Access was a smart move for a staggered launch, but it was turned into a marketing ploy to secure as many pre-orders as possible (also a smart move, in my opinion). Many of us pre-ordered as early as we did (July 21 for me, but only got code on July 28 from GameStop) because we were offered early access. So this was an agreement, with unspecified details, signed between BioWare and the consumer. It certainly wasn't a "favour". -Bel Edited December 13, 2011 by yechidah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yurthong Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I had pre-ordered the regular box edition at a local store on day 1 or 2, but the store didn't have it's digital codes, so I get the shaft there. To make it worse, I upgraded to the CE the first day it was released, and guess what, the same stupid store had to wait a week to get the codes from head office. I don't think I'll get access until tomorrow or the next day. Stupid EB Games Canada..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skttlsmilkyway Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Put code in 7/22 7pm EST, no invite yet. I am hearing some people that put in the code the first day have still not got in but some 7/22 people did. What gives? This system is flawed.
