I got my pre-order code entered the day after they went live, would have had it sooner but I had to wait a day for Gamestop to email me the code. I'm hoping I get in on the 13th so I can reserve names.

Wouldn't surprise me. When WoW's Burning Crusade X-pack came out, there were people with the new races at the new level cap on day 2

I'm not certain but don't you not get to play the whole time during early access?

It depends when you get in. If you get in on the 15th you have five days, 14th you would have six, and etc. I don't think they will be limiting playtime. I haven't read anything along those lines.

I heard that when you get to the upper 30s or 40s, leveling grinds to a near standstill.

I just hope I can get the legacy name I want within a day or two... but we'll see!

I'm sure there will be a lot of hardcore players who just spacebar through all of the cutscenes to level as fast as they can.

Also, I still can't think of a Legacy name for my characters.

Really looking forward to this head start. Probably not going to get in until later though, as I did not preorder until October. If I can get in by the 15th, I will be VERY content, and that's only because I am going to be away for most of the 16th...

To everyone who gets in tomorrow:
Happy Hunting and May the Force be With You.

Hope to see you soon in game.

Fixed for honesty.

Yup, I hope everypony has a blast tomorrow!

Time to get up really early. This will put me in practice for being up for my 7:30 am finals in the coming weeks. I swear I'll get off and study!

I should know whether or not I'm in when I wake up for work. Then I get to do 3 hours of dealing with brats, and come home to sweet sweet Early Access, if I'm lucky!

So for those Day One ponies, when did you actually get notified?

They were periodically sending out emails earlier on. http://twitter.com/swtor to creep on invites.

Ah, thanks. Really looking forward to my Monday evening invite. ^^;

You can hit up the TOR Facebook as well. Whichever one gives you easier access. That's where i've been following all day and watching waves of people QQ about not getting their codes.

Invites are over for the day. They will be starting again tomorrow morning.

Yup! 9am CST, so 10am for me! They did four waves of emails with a fifth bonus wave, once a hour until 1pm CST. I'm sure that's how this is going to roll.

I don't know if they are legit going by when you put your prereg code in or not. People in the comments on FB were saying they were in August and got in, but others were saying they were the end of July and still didn't get the email.

If I had to guess, they knocked out the first week and a half of preorders today. I'm hoping for tomorrow, but Thursday is probably more likely. Here's hoping!

I'm a little concerned that it's only the first day and our server is supposedly already full.

My guess is that they don't have all their server hardware up yet, and that the server capacities will rise.
