Cauthorn Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Definitely not Bioware's fault; however, some of your distributors are letting the side down. You are aware the postal service at Christmas time is generally over taxed? Is there a better work around? I.e letting people subscribe (i.e. pay to play) but extending the grace period within which to register a product code for free game time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlandrh Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 This Doesn't help those who Ordered From Walmart.com and Cannot change Shipping, So I will play until after the 22nd then wait to get back in on the 29th or there after to Play again. I guess wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limeyness Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Well I just spoke to Origin support, and they told me they are not shipping till the 20th either, so hopefully thats not going to screw us. I find it annoying that the distributor of the game is worse than amazon, who started shipping already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McShelburne Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Thank you guys! I was wondering if the billing cycle would start if we entered our codes early. Glad to hear it doesn't! Very sweet of you guys also to have a grace period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leopardtag Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 It was a very good move from BW to give us 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmcmannisj Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Thank you!! I think this is a great thing for BW to do. I pre-ordered the CE from Best Buy so without a grace period I wouldn't be able to play from when EGA ended on the 19th until I get to the store and pick it up when BB opens on the 20th. Not a huge loss but I think it's great that they are listening to our concerns and responding to them. Great customer service!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diablo_the_lord Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Nice, thanks. 2 days is definitely better than none. I doubt mine will be here on the 22nd, but still, at least I won't have to stop playing on the 20th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frocetrooper Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 personally i would like to know if the ebgames is shipping early as well since its just gamestop with a different name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imtrick Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Can someone tell the guys in Origin that it's the 16th and they can ship now? Every other vendor seems to have got the message; it's a little frustrating that the copy I ordered from EA is still sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

Ambrogino Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) I'd like to thank all the fanboys in these forums. You guys make reading this stuff entertaining, all the while taking sucking up to newer heights... To BW and EA, thanks. I guess, for at least attempting to compromise on the "Grace Period" issue, I mean it not like you could have actually thought about all this ahead of time, like your supposed to and make sure the retailers emailed or mailed our activation codes and then all it would take would be us providing you with Subscription info on launch day or even prior like every other game has done... But I guess deleting posts and threads that are critical of BW and EA is more important. Edited December 16, 2011 by Ambrogino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coiffio Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I dunno who did what and who talked to who but right now I'm pretty darn grateful. I came to this thread because I had concerns I would be locked out on the 20th, and then I run into this good news. However, the news was even better when I was checking my email today and found out gamestop had already shipped my collector's edition and it'll be delivered later today lol. Gotta say BW and EA are my two favorite companies right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoLogan Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 This is good news! I'm sure many retailers aren't getting the copies on launch day. These two days are very welcome. Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlaveIV Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 this is good news, as gamestop told me about no midnight release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdi_knght Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Big thanks! Have a feeling that Best Buy Canada + Canada Post might not get the copies I ordered to us in time (rural Canada), but the grace period should help alleviate some of the pain for myself and the others who will be waiting! Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowspeeder Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Kind of sucks for someone like me who lives in Hawaii. With the free shipping through Amazon, earliest arrival for the physical copy is Dec 29th. I guess I'll play as much as I can until the 22nd.

Siefer_Skyy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 So I just received my Collector's Edition and I must say it is the most awesome and exciting thing I have received for a game ever. The journal of Gnost Dural is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yedzir Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 This is a good example of BW/EA listening to the customers and taking action before it's too late! Great job guys/gals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
