Early Access 'Waves' - Updating Here

Recommended Posts

I'll be honest. Between having surnames basically be on a first come, first save basis, to guild names being first come, first serve type of thing, and unless I missed it (Might've, honestly), only being one RP-PvP realm...

 

I preordered with the mindset that I'd get early access. I sighed in relief knowing I'd get early access and not lose my surname for my RP character when it was announced, I was glad that I might get a chance to get the guild name I wanted. Now, Bioware is basically stating they are only doing four waves today. Understandable... But we really need more information than what we are getting. Only four waves of invites today? How many invites, how far into the order cycle are they?

 

I understand MMO early access isn't a right, but when you do preorder something with the intent of having said access and there's been very little communication from the company on how it's done, and the staggering invites wasn't detailed till well after I preordered... It can be frustrating.

LOL you guys are funny early access was suppose to be on the 15th but it got moved 2 days early which means you have 2 days you don't have to wait, which also means if you don't get in today you will get in tommorow which means it's still 1 extra day that is giving for early access so be happy that they did 2 days early and stop your crying :p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p

Hundrets of pages full of whine xD

 

Well, it seems almost every whiner will miss becoming #1 of the epeen-like level rushing. Very sad... not xD

 

Feeling satisfied there are so many ppl who are not able to handle this game right before it started :)

 

But to make a useful comment... it would be nice to get a rough time for the next wave. checking mails every hour that some1 has the time to is pretty annoying

Dear Bioware,

 

 

On behalf of the sane, mature and reasonable player base allow me to apologise for the insane, immature and unreasonable player base.

 

If you need a hug, or just someone to talk to, then feel free to contact me (in game would be preferable). Of course, you would need to expedite my early game access to do so - but that would make us both winners.

 

Stay calm, and carry on!

 

 

Lots of love,

 

Turr

Seems like my message didn't take, so I'm going to say this again:

 

EA F@cked up my pre-order by giving me a standard edition code when I should have had a CE and forced me to wait days trying to resolve the problem before telling me I had to start a new account. I was literally the first one through the door of Gamestop to pre-order this game and could actually prove that with my old receipt.

 

Right now (I just checked) my account with the standard edition has received early game access, yet my account that has the CE code I eventually was able to receive does not.

 

If they are going first come, first serve, they should be taking this kind of thing into account since they have me in their customer service archives (or so I would hope). I don't see why I should have to make a desician between either the headstart OR the Collector's Edition I paid top dollar for.

 

Go ahead, check. I'm Therumancer, if the boards go back that far enough you'll see plenty written by me when they screwed this up.

 

Not only is the situation messed up in general, but I'm getting screwed in paticular. Given how many pre-orders were messed up I can't be alone in this. EA should take responsibility for it's actions and make this right.

 

Sadly it's a petty enough thing where threatening legal action isn't really viable, but really the way EA has been treating it's customers with this game over the last year or so has been absolutly deplorable. Not being able to simply update a pre-order code, customer service run arounds, and now this? Heck, I even had one point where Customer Service tried to tell me my CE code when I got one wasn't valid and then put it into the site with a new account and it worked (and is registered now) followed by an "oh, we're sorry but really you needed to do that anyway because we'd rather spend hours running you around than spend 15 seconds to edit an account despite a well known issue and all the evidence you can provide".
