About a month ago it was revealed through a FAQ that the SWTOR early access would begin on December 15th, however today after BioWare announced that pre-loading was available, the FAQ has been updated with a date of December 13th, two days earlier!
As previously stated by BioWare, early access is dependent on when you redeemed your pre-order access code, the sooner the better. There’s no information on the FAQ about how soon players can access the game, however if you check your SWTOR account, it should shows you your early access date.
Early Game Access will begin on December 13th, 2011 , 7:00AM EST (Pacific: December 13th, 4:00AM PST; European: December 13th, 12:00PM GMT, 1:00PM CET), seven days prior to the official launch ofStar Wars: The Old Republic. The length of your Early Game Access period will vary depending on the order in which you redeemed your Pre-Order Code. The speed of your download of the Game may also affect when you start playing.
where on your account does it show you when your start date is? I cant seem to find it anywhere.
I couldn’t find it either, but from the FAQ it seems to say it should show on your SWTOR account.
No one knows yet, they haven’t sent out the invitations yet.
They will email you on the same day that you gain access, so keep checking from the 13th onward.
i dont understand the “you get the email the day you get in” I dont get why they wont tell us ahead of time
@Dude
Simple, if they told you then people would make an unnecessary fuss about it, ie. bragging, trolling, griefing, etc on the forums among various other issues thay may pop up with an early revelation.
