CE items and advance items are here

[TheNeoReaper]

Mine says I only have 4 days left of free time. I thought we were getting 30 days? Will it update to 30 once the game officially launches.

i accidentally registered my collector's edition code as a new service account, i'm REALLY hoping there's a way i can merge that account with the one containing my main character cause i really don't wanna start over

Only if you buy the PS3 CE.

1.0 Standard + PS3 CE = CE Account
1.0 Standard + PC CE = Original account (standard) + PC CE account. Cannot be combined.

Otherwise, you'll have to the digital upgrade.

Seriously?! I've already bought the PC CE in the hopes I'd be able to use that to upgrade my account. It seems very odd that this wouldn't be possible, do you have a post from a dev confirming what you say? What is the Bonus Code part of Mog Station for then I wonder. I'll at least try my CE key there.

Apparently buying the 1.0 CE gets you absolutely nothing. Oh well...most of the crap they give you us useless past level 10 anyway.

...the registration code for the Windows collector's edition cannot be used with a pre-existing Windows service account. To receive the in game items for the collector's edition, please use the digital upgrade.

However, the PS3 version can be registered to an existing Windows account, which would allow you to receive the collector's edition items.

For those who ordered through GreenManGaming, I just received my CE code by mail and redeemed through mogstation without any problems.

Same. GMG sent the 20 digit game code an hour ago.

I too would like an answer to this.

Also an answer to this question that was ignored:

I just got my PS3 CE copy in the mail today and tried to enter the code into PS3 and said it was no longer valid?

Actually, I think it's a bug with 1.0 CE + Legacy members not getting items.

My wife got her 1.0 CE the same time I did, but she is not legacy. She got all her items today.

I am 1.0 CE + Legacy = No items.

Dev, care to confirm?

Before I registered my 20 digit Game Activation Code today it said 4 remaining days. After I entered in the key, it now says 34 remaining days.

In the end there were 3 keys from preorder:
1. 18 digit Early Access / Pre-Order Code (from the place you bought it)
2. 20 digit early access code (from SE)
3. 20 digit Game Activation Code (from the place you bought it or the actual physical game)

Mine says "You have no available characters". Yet here I am.
Do you only get the option to link your character when you enter the Game Activation code?
