When I started Origin it popped up a notice saying:

"If you pre-ordered Star Wars: The Old Republic, the password you created for the game has replaced your Origin account password. Please use the new password to login."

Not sure if you get that, also my digital pre-order is straight from Origin which might be why it's showing up. Maybe if you got yours from somewhere else they just haven't updated the system with the external suppliers codes yet? just a thought

My Amazon Ce code went straight to my Origin account

Found it, didn't realise I had a second account - had forgotten some parts of my new password

Edit: For those of you that haven't seen it -

I like the "single planet devotred to single player endgame", sometimes when logging on I can't be bothered to sit in PvP queues or look for groups so nice to have a bunch of stuff to do by myself for some fun

How long did it take people to get their codes from the Jersey store?

Apem · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:34

Never use them for anything terrible delivery service when ever I used them before.

Have you tried your local Game store?

Yeah I will give them a call tomorrow otherwise its origin time. I'd like a SWTOR to sit next to my SWG CE

.

Also, I'd prefer PvP and Sith. However I could go Rebel, i'd rather play with a decent bunch o'guys

Im just praying the game lives upto what im expecting after soe killed my beloved SWG my poor swordmaster

SkScotchegg · 24 Jul 2011 at 18:02

Same here, I really want to have another good mmo so I stop going back to wow. I really think this could be the one because I'm a massive star wars fan so the game theme means a lot to me.

Charging £5 for a pre order. EA DIAF

If I hadn't wanted a code so quickly, I would have ordered elsewhere. This is capitalism for you I guess

Teaf · 24 Jul 2011 at 19:18

Heh, same. Not sure why I wanted my code ASAP really given that the game is still months away and the headstart is only 3 days.

Is it really?

That's ridiculous then.

People willing to pay double to get 3 days headstart in an MMO.

I guess that will be an extended beta period for you.

From what I read, the "SE" headstart is 3 days and the "CE" is apparantly 6 days. Not sure if it was confirmed but it's been quoted and written on the official forums quite a bit.

You never know - the world may end on official release day.

Seeing how slow development has been and how little info has been released, the world will most likely end before we even get a release date...

Apparently not. Doesn't matter which box you have, it will all depend on when you put your code in. No idea where that quote was from though (apart from being on the official forums) and would never be able to dig the link back out, so will wait for confirmation.

Essentially I paid a fiver to get into the headstart asap - not sure if I will be able to when the time comes, but at least I will have the option

But it's not a fiver for anyone that buys the standard edition, is it?

You can pre-order now for £27 and I'm sure there will be deals close to £20 before the release therefore making the digital version of the game a vastly overpriced product that people will buy regardless of what is and isn't logical.

Plus the standard edition should register on Origin, right?
