Physical imperial edition - will I lose my access tomorrow?

netsike · April 2014

I ordered the physical imperial edition and I got an e-mail with the early access code. It works, everything is okay, but my package haven't arrived yet, that means I still don't have the imp. edition code. In my account also stands "beta access" and "early access" but nothing else...I'm afraid that as soon as the early access expired I won't be able to play until my package arrives. Anyone knows something about it?

According to a post I just read elsewhere, you'll get two days starting tomorrow to register a full product code if you've been playing with an ES one which you have been.

I don't have an official answer for you, but looking back at other games that came out, there is usually a window of a few days for physical purchases to enter their code.

Good luck!

Thanks for the fast answer! I hope I will have some time to register with the code...

The physical won't come out til tomorrow so you'll get it by mail or go pick it up. But as long as you got the early access code in, that's what shows your edition and should still be playing with no interruption. Unless you cancel your game, then your code will be cancelled.

Called to check to see if mine was going to ship and shows a date for estimated delivery date for tomorrow. But, was not in the process of shipping. I was told by the rep i would need to select one day shipping for it to ship today and since i changed it it shot it forward to April 7th and shows preparing for shipment. Now Amazon is saying there is no way to change the date on the box set at all for release date shipping...

I would have just gone to Bestbuy and put the pre-order in for the physical box in and picked up in the morning, if i knew it was going to be a logistics nightmare for Amazon to put a item in a box and ship it today so it delivers tomorrow.

I more than likely will bite the bullet and buy the digital imp edition and have a key to sell after, since i took tomorrow off from work to play.

Also I asked the rep if there was anyway they could change the shipping on my item but, i guess their system locks the order down and wont let you change the shipping, plus they don't have anyway to call or tell the shipping dept to go "hey we messed up can we just throw this in a box and ship it to the guy" apparently what happened it booted my place in line to get the game....since the rep told me to change shipping to one day even though it was pre-ordered in Back in Jan 30 2013. lol, i had a feeling that this was going to happen on this order from them from the get go. April fools on me.

I'm not mad but they need to have some way of calling the shipping dept or some way to alter the order from a manager standpoint in regards of order/shipping changes.

They stated there was no way they could even call the shipping dept they didn't have a phone number to the place and there was no way to email them either.
The rep is going to see if there was anything they could do and call my back but, not to hold my breath.

How many days do we get for before we get kicked?

KerinKor already told you: two days. Though I am unclear as to whether you are locked all the way out or just your Imperial Edition bonuses.

You have a 48hour grace period for all your bonuses you currently have. That's what it's refering to. You just need to enter the physical code to keep them.
