I guess we also need to know if what was said about the speeder being recoverable if destroyed-or something like that has changed too.

Thunderheart, we all understand things change, but could you please get in front of these things?

Anyone that read the Stratics interview was expecting the speeder when they got the pre-order disc. I say this with the utmost respect and I know people will yell and scream either way, but at least you'll know you were proactive with information.

If you already have a beta account, you can go under the launch pad and select My Account. Click Edit Account. When the window comes up, scroll to the bottom and you will see a button that says "Register Expansion". Put the pre-order CD key in here. VIOLA! When JTL is installed, you should have your speeder.






Thank you! I've been searching like crazy to figure out how to do this. My invite beta let's be play but it won't let me into the beta forum to ask. Glad I checked here and thank you for posting this!



"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, 'How can we do this and not make another EQ?' We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen." - Julio Torres

What about those of us who pre-ordered through lucas arts?






Heh, me too. I also pre-ordered through lucas arts and have not been invited into the beta nor will send replies when I keep asking about the flash speeder.

Hello Carl,

Thank you for contacting EBgames.com.

Unfortunately, we do not ship to England/UK. I do not have the
information available as to why we do not ship there.

If you require further assistance, we are available 7 days a week from 8
AM to Midnight EST.

Sincerely,
John

SOE, Can you find a store that CAN ship to UK and DOES have the bonus disk. Why should we be left out of the special speeder offer? I wouldnt mind if it was a different version of the game but its the exact same one.

I checked my EBgames account online. no where does it say anything about the disc shipping and it still says "open" under order status. Am I supposed to pick it up in-store if i chose in-store pickup?

you have to be over 18 in order to log in for the beta launchpad in which you installed from the beta disc that you received in the mail.


my information is wrong and says i am not 18 yet i am, so does this mean i cannot get the speeder?



i really wish more information was presented better

With regards to people who are under 18 or who have already been accepted to beta and want thier flash speeders. There is a reply by Tiggs that reads:


We are working on correcting this and will let you know the procedure as soon as it is completed.

Check the Dev tracker best place to find Dev posts

EB Games in Canada will get the bonus disc, which, from what I can tell, is how they know if you preordered to get the speeder. They will not, however, be getting Beta CD's. The beta CD's are for US only, from what I've been able to gather by going online.

I would also like to know how us europeans can get the flash speeder. The gamestop site says international customers dont get the bonus disk. and EBgames DOES NOT SHIP TO UNITED KINGDOM. which is a bit wierd, in the drop down list to add your address there is no United Kingdom, no England and no Great Britan. Looks like americans forgot about your "closest ally" again. Nice One.


So I ask again, how am I suppose to get the flash speeder? the game stores in england say squat about a bonus disk.






GameStop's internationational says you do get the speeder, but not the beta.


From the GameStop site product info for the international version:


Bonus Offer! - Preorder Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed and receive an exclusive in-game vehicle FREE! The Flash speeder is a sleek lightweight speeder from Naboo - Beta offer does not apply.


So, you get the pre-order bonus CD, you DO NOT get the Beta CD.
