I dont know what the big fuss is about really. From the start BW said UP TO 5 days early access... They started early access 7 days ahead of time, even earlier than anticipated. The big problem has come from people not reading the preorder email they got from Origin that clearly states how to redeem your preorder code. People were preordering and thinking they were automatically entered into early access queue. But yes, to me, it appears it is going in order of when you redeemed your preorder code. December 12th preorders cant get here fast enough. While you wait, just remember, Patience is a virtue young padawan.
