Early Access code - Wrong Region

[djrdo]

+ the resion of the code

[xEthan]

wishes for an unlike button just for ethans responses as he dosent know what issue we are dealing with but gives great poin less advise when its the account region not ur site ur going to to get a code

I will kindly request you not mention my name ever again. I already explained your issue to you. You choose to dismiss the solution. That is on you.

Also somewhat unrelated but I wanted to tell you yet choose not too before, pre-order codes do not bring collector edition perks. You can stop requesting people to give you CE edition EA codes as such thing does not exist.

If DarkSnowWolf chooses not to listen to advice #2, advice #1 on his/her NA account is guaranteed to work. I ask that you stop insulting me. Thank you.

Well you from NA right? Although this is not the most ethical thing to do. Order a physical copy of the game (PS3 or PC don't matter) from amazon.com, you will get a new registration code. Use that to make a new NA code. Then just cancel the order. In the future, consider shopping from them just for being so nice to you.

AHHH WAIT A SECOND!

20 digit code is PC code. Well that should be easy to fix. Clear your cookies/cache (I Use CCLEANER). Then go to the NA preorder site. pick your region, log in. Now you at the input code area. This is IMPORTANT: Choose your region language (even if it already shown chosen) it will do a super small refresh. Now put the code. Yeah the code you already used the EU version off. If it says Error 3. Hit refresh/F5 and repeat all the above again. Eventually it will go in.

Also to deter you from using that EU code, it will let you use your early access fine now and all but once the 30th come and it ask you for a registration key and all you have is a NA one. You will be stuck and frustrated. Just don't do it.

Sadly I cant cancel my order.. it already charged from my retailer
nor I can order a new one online since I don't have a CC
my 18 code keep giving me stupid RAAE..
so all I can do is create a new account and register the god dam 20 RAAE code to EU..
since it won't let me go through with NA..

@xEthan, I did this exactly. The pre-order 18-digit code Greenmangaming gave me is an EU 20-digit early access code. I registered in early access with an amazon 18 and 20 digit NA code, which I promptly cancelled after the early access got confirmed. Now, I'm worried that the actual game code greenmangaming will give me is also region locked to EU?

I don't know if I can cancel a pre-order from greenmangaming. @_@

That is not a solution. You will need to use your retail registration code on the 30th and that code is NA so it wont work on the EU account. Making another account is not an option for you. Need to turn that code into NA. Try following the steps 1 by 1. Bookmark this.

#1 Clear your Cache/Cookies. I use CCleaner.
#2 Go to NA Square Enix > Log in> My Settings.
#3 Change country and language to the correct one, save.
#4 Go to NA Pre-order
#5 Select USA > Log In
#6 Once you can see the code input page, under log in should say English (US) CLICK IT > Shows a list of languages > CLICK ENGLISH (US)
#7 Should see on lower left corner waiting na.squareenix.com pass by fast > Enter code as normal, select platform of choice> Confirm
#8 If get Error#3 > Refresh/F5 > Repeat step 5 and below.

Don't worry GMG actual code wont have issue. The pre-order codes are universal. GMG e-mail link sends you to the EU page, which at the time was the correct page. That is to say at the time GMG sent the codes the EU website was actually giving NA codes. Which of course you can see the major confusion this caused when people inherently went to NA because NA means North America instead of EU. This cause major issue in which EU was getting NA codes and NA was getting EU codes.

GMG codes are correct, the mistake was from SE side not theirs. Your code registration code will be NA.

@xEthan That's very reassuring! Strangely, my order from GMG doesn't even have an indication if it's NA or EU. Check it out:

Some people who ordered from GMG have either NA or EU in parenthesis. Mine doesn't. My fingers are crossed that my registration code on release is NA, and will have the pre-order bonuses.
