I was wondering the same thing. But I work for a school, so the following week i limited hours (8-2), and then the week after that I have completely off. So, chances are I will be able to suck it up for one day before I kiss the sun goodbye.
Thank god I got my wife interested in playing, or I would be getting a divorce i suspect. |

I had to load the launcher just to see if I by chance got in and just didn't get an email.
No dice, but at least I'm updated. |

I got an invite but am finding it hard to put down Skyrim for it. I was too depressed saying goodbye to my characters after the last testing weekend. Sucks putting in hours just to have it get wiped out. I can wait a few more days for the real thing.
If I could transfer it to one of you guys, I would. |

And so the 10 days of suffering begins for all.
Here I was thinking it would be easy after waiting years for the game to come out. |

When does early access start?
I haven't been able to participate in any of the betas, they always fell on a weekend I was super busy.

Should be noted that it's going to be in pieces. You're actual early access will depend on when you turned in your codes for the pre-order. The ones that did it in July will get first dibs, and then more added throughout the rest of the week.

This system is bullshit. I ordered in mid-august from origin and swtor.com wouldn't accept my pre-order code. I go back after I tested in late november and it accepted the code. So I will be pissed if my "early access" is eliminated as a result of that issue.

Important post on the mod system from the official boards. It makes sense and eases my mind in a lot of ways:

Wow, that sounds like a min/maxer (me) paradise! If they implement it right, that mod system is going to rape face.

I really liked the mod system in my September beta weekend. During my early November weekend, they basically got rid of all modifiable gear, which was good for my inventory (there were an insane number of mod drops in September) but was bad for the system in generally. I liked what I saw around Thanksgiving, which seemed to be a good point midway between the two systems. Hearing it was toned-back in the patch notes scared me a little, which is why that post gave me some relief. I think it's a going to be a good system.
That and crew skills (crafting...) are two of the things I'm most excited by. I love being able to update not only my equipment, but my companions' as well, without necessarily having to look for completely new gear every 4 or 5 levels (read: every day...). And the crew skills system, in all three weekends that I played, was I think the most addictive, most enjoyable crafting experience I've had in an MMO to date. It doesn't have the insane (and in many cases pointless) variety of SWG's crafting, but it has much more than I remember from either WoW or LotRO. Reverse engineering adds a whole new layer of complexity to it, and the idea of you companions doing not only the crafting, but the gathering as well is just so amazingly refreshing. The days of spending hours in front of a forge or at a workbench to grind crafting levels are over. Now you can do it while you play the game. |
