I think most people who get in will be scurrying to play and won't be browsing these forums. Hate to bust it to ya. Unless they are at work I guess and won't miss work when they get it.

I pre-ordered Aug 28 from Origin (Canada) and did not get initial invite if you are curious.

By jameswsutton at 2011-12-13 10:57:28
I preordered on the 24th of July and have not gotten in..you preordered on the 28th?

By Marco0798 at 2011-12-13 11:06:29
I pre-ordered 25th and not in yet there are other who pre-ordered in december and are in. the first come first serve was a lie jameswsutton.
By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 11:06:45
They're still on the July preorders eh? Guess I can count today out, and maybe even tomorrow :(
September 1st here T.T
By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 11:07:46
Wait....people from December got in? Well what the ^&*! is that ^&*!, I'm months ahead of these people and I'm sitting here on my day off like a chode on the forums? Bioware, shame on you!
By Marco0798 at 2011-12-13 11:13:53
you and me both wackojacko, i dont know wtf they are doing but IF you read one of reids official posts he seems to suggest that while the majority is from early days there are randoms in there. not sure who they killed for it but there are atleast several hundred dec pre-orders whoa re in so far from the ones ive seen all are from origin pre-order.
By NaboLassar at 2011-12-13 11:16:44
well yeah, from what i have read on twitter it looks like this...
They have more servers to come online, that they are bringing up for the 4th wave (twitter)
they can increase the "full" number on the server allowing more to fit (twitter)
preorders slacked after the initial rush, i dont have exact figures (http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=4196)
as they get further along they are going to accelerate, so more sparse preorders and the acceleration taking over should see some pretty big jumps....i bet sept 1 will get in tomarrow, but thats speculation
By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 11:20:32

I was under the impression, from friends who have been keeping up with it big time, that before I got my preorder in (september 1st) that something like 300,000-350,000 people had already preordered and put the code in and all that. And they said something like...what 150,000 people per day getting in? I assumed it was just go down the line by month, meaning I'd more then likely get in on Thursday morning, or Wednesday night at the earliest. Which would've been fine....

...but if people who just ordered this month get full 7 day early access over people who ordered on the first day available, or especially myself (lol), then wtf?

By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 11:23:09
@Nabo - hell, if i could get in tomorrow that'd be dope. But naturally, I'm working tomorrow. SIGH :(
By Wickedluck at 2011-12-13 11:28:11
My rage is complete i preorder on the first day and i have no invite.It is a flat out lie that they are going in order
By NaboLassar at 2011-12-13 11:32:25
I dont think it looks as bleak as people seem to interpret it. I am not usually the optimist but from my readings, and anal attention to twitter and the forum have yielded some results and it looks a wee bit better than many are thinking.
By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 11:33:50
I'll save my rage for tomorrow.
Because if in fact things are going good, and more people are getting in today then expected, I best be getting my Star Fox questing on tomorrow!
By Fnords at 2011-12-13 11:35:59
Pre-order code redeemed at the 27th of July, Sweden, still no e-mail
By NaboLassar at 2011-12-13 11:49:05
@fnords i would call someone, i know of alot of 28th and 29th preorders that are playing...have you tried running the launcher to see if its lit?
By jfudge at 2011-12-13 12:11:08
Just got my email. Preorder was July 24th.
By Jestunhi at 2011-12-13 12:23:21
apparently the latest (bonus) wave included 26th July, but certainly not all of 27th (if any) as no invite fore me yet.
By Fnords at 2011-12-13 13:07:00

@NaboLassar

I think I'm fine, think there are lots of 27th that aren't in atm. Could be a US/EU thing as well wouldn't surprise me too much

By Fnords at 2011-12-13 13:36:23

I'm in now as stated before 27th of July Sweden.

Good Luck everyone!

By TheWeazle at 2011-12-13 13:45:20
Aug 3, EU, still nothing.
By Keipha at 2011-12-13 14:02:06
I pre-ordered on July 21st, US East Coast, still no email.
By richardya at 2011-12-13 15:41:41
@keipha did you redeem your preorder? I preordered on July 21st to get early access and set up my account that day. However I did not redeem the preorder with the code until 2days ago (Dec 11) to download the client. Guess which date they use. : (
By Valan at 2011-12-13 18:36:34
@xWhackoJacko
It's not 300-350k preorders my friend, it's way past that. As of a couple days ago it is 939,358 preorders. Freakin crazy.

By xWhackoJacko at 2011-12-13 21:31:59

@Valan

I said before September first! Not total!
I knew there was about a million, which is why 150k a day made sense over 7 days.

By durenas at 2011-12-13 23:23:36
Keep in mind, those people who said they preordered recently and got in, are trolling. They really are letting people in, in order of when we preordered...
By seph1r0th at 2011-12-13 23:35:49
Valan you're so wrong. The pre-orders you're talking about do not include digital deluxe editions from anywhere in the world, nor do they include any kind of preorder from the EU.
So what you're really looking at is nearly 2 million pre-orders.
So far they've let in around 300k people, and they plan to let in more than that today alone, and that same number again the day after.
So yeah, if you redeemed your code in late August, cross your fingers coz you might just get in on the last few waves today...
