I know you aren't the distribution department, but how exactly does the flash speeder promo work?


Is it shipped with the promo?

Is it on the box for the release version of the game?


There's alot of conflicting information on the forums.


How about a final word? Please.

Maybe if you could be clearer than mud on your question. This has been answered 1,000,001 times alread. Start up your launchpad, enter your pre-order cd key, bang - you'll get your speeder as soon as you install JTL.

Yes but what if we preorderd and didn't get that promo code yet?

Okay, as soon as you get your pre-order cd (although it's strange you didn't get it yet) even after JTL launch, enter that key, you'll get your speeder. A dev has answered this question.

Since you pre-ordered it looks like you'll actually have to wait longer to play than everyone that simply goes to a store today or tomorrow.


For those that wonder the difference, CD-Key's are generated in a sequence or lot, they designated several lots of keys as pre-order and those are the ones placed in the pre-order boxes. Which are actually a different box. Their computer has a record of all of those keys. When you activate, it will give you your speeder if you have one of those keys.


Most companies that use CD-Keys actually store various information about them. For example, Microsoft knows if you have an upgrade or a full install, if your copy of windows is OEM, retail or student discount. If they felt like keeping track of it and might do so, they know where you bought it even. It's actually a pretty simple process.

I just posted this in one of the other ten thousand threads on this same subject but when you get your preorder disk all you need to do is imput the cd key and you will get your flash speeder.


There is no need to install the beta and if you have the preorder code but haven't recieved the full version yet you still imput that code today and you will have yor flash speeder.


Now for those that didn't preorder yet but are going out to buy the game in the next day or so you may still be able to get a flash speeder too, if you go to a Gamestop or Electronic Boutique stores.


I called around in my area and found many stores still have 10 or more copies of the preorder boxes which I was told by one retailer they will give out to those that purchase the full version until gone.


You will then have two cd codes which you imput and get both the flash speeder and the JTL activation.

Thank you!! And, just to be safe, input your pre-order cd code before you input your JTL code.
