I activated my flash speeder in beta and had the deed for it on my live account yesterday and activated it also. Haven't checked my char on different server yet though.

I don't think so. Not everyone in betahad the speeder and or the yacht. I didn't have them because I was invited to the beta withoutusing the pre-order beta CD and I'm not qualified as a veteran player. The only way you could have the speed in beta was through beta key registration. In other words, if you have them in beta, you'll have them in live after you've installed and activated your retail copy of JtL.

Yes, you can use your flash speeder in Beta. But based on what i was reading, you only get 1 per acct. You get to decide which server you want it on but once you activate the speeder, you can only have it on that particular character. Which i why i didn't activate mine on the beta server. Guess I'm understanding it as even if activated on the beta server, you won't be able to get it on your reg acct.....
Though i could be wrong.
lol dood. beta is the beta. it's not permanent, it doesn' t affect what your live character will do. I have the flash speeder, and my sorosuub yacht in beta right now. They are giving us the opportunity to test these things out right now to make the last final tweaks to JTL - that's why we have them. If using our 'reward' now meant not getting it in live, then no one would be testing them out in beta. So next time you try to put some alarmist crap like this on the forum, use some logic, maybe then it will make some sense.

When I got my game today, I received the pre-order thing as well. When I followed the steps to getting a flash speeder as instructed in the jewel case, I came to a dead end when the page I needed to access was forbidden. Can I still get a flash speeder?

when i tried to generate my flash speederfrom the deed, it told me i already had the maximum allowable number of vehicles. is this for real, or just a temp bug?
since i have no AV-21 for a point of comparison, perhaps an AV-21 owner can tell me if they can have all 4 vehicles as is?
thanks in advance!

Definitely not
all my mains have one now and i have driven them. i have not compared them enough to knowthe comparisonprecisely (i.e. flatground trials), but on forums i have read players havewritten that they are either the same as an X34 landspeeder, or between that and a speederbike (unswoop'd). my experience is that it is a bit faster than the X34, so i would agree with the latter.
hope this helps!

Boy oh boy will this threed get some flames.
The Flash Speeder was a reward for Pre-Ordering the game from one of two vendors.. As far as I know EB stopping issuing the speeder around October 22nd and GS around October 14th or so. Details on the dates may have changed, I haven't kept track. But it was only for pre-order. Since the game is already out, that offer is over.
In short, no. There is no way for you to get the speeder from either of these companies any longer. Unless you know someone who works there that stumbles across one of the pre-order CD's laying in the back room somewhere or something.

I would like to know whether or not us unfortunates in the UK will get the flash speeder? I think it is a little unfair that we have been made to wait for the release and therefore miss out on the bonuses that everybody else has received!
Also, what was it you have to type to get the 90 day bonus? I forget....
Thanks.
