registering for expansion

[Bertie91]

so I registered my code for early access which iv been able to play now I'm trying to register for the full launch and I have no code and also the code I have for early access which it says needs to be entered again for full launch doesn't work what should I do?

this is what it says on the post on the lodestone

Even if you have registered a pre-order bonus code for early access, you will still need to redeem your full FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood registration code or promotion code to continue playing the Stormblood expansion pack.
* Please note that if you have a character logged out in a Stormblood area after early access has ended, you will not be able to log in with that character until you redeem your full Stormblood code.

Wait till you get your code?

Not necessarily, some people may have gotten physical copies early from online stores/vendors, so they made it available. I don't get my CE till Thursday, so the code option being available does nothing for me.

Early access codes last until Friday. It was like this at 3.0, there were no issues. Calm down, jesus.

It's normal that codes get sent in waves and not all at the same time. So give it some time.

The aim is for codes to be both available and registerable starting on the 20th. That's what makes the 20th release day. In Japan, it already is the 20th, so they've opened up the registration process. But releases go by local time, and stores won't be able to sell the game until it's locally June 20th. In both Europe and North America, it's still the 19th, so it makes sense for the EU and NA sites not to be giving out codes yet.

In any case, it's kind of a moot point. I don't understand why so many people are adamant about wanting to get the full registration early when they have the early access anyway. You already have access, and have until Friday to register the full game. You can at least wait until tomorrow before worrying about the registration code.

I just want to thank you for explaining this. I wasn't so much adamant about getting it early as worried I had missed something. Now I know I can be on my merry way though, cheers~

Maybe because people payed for the thing ? Or maybe cuz SE screwed up everything since data center relocation? Who knows ...
