Start your pre-loading!

Confirmed by SWTOR Community Manager Stephen Reid via Twitter and now on the official site and community forums, Early Access will begin on the 13th for those who locked in their pre-order codes months in advance.

People will complain that it's not 10 days in advance now.

Then people will complain that they only get in 5 days before, even though that was the best result yesterday.

Then people will complain that having early access at all will ruin the game.

Then people will complain that all the people on launch day are ruining the game.

@Brodehouse: But! but! I bought the CE, WHY CAN'T I PLAY NOW?!

Seriously though, those official forums are overflowing with people that need to take a break from the internet and go on an adventure in reality..

shit..... I wanted to play some Karkand on the 13th.... but guess i gotta play some SWTOR :O

It's "Up to" 7 days early access

I think that whole "Depends when you preordered the game" thing is still in effect

but I hope not

also ""

Just saw it earlier, awesome.
 
I can't wait, I'm kinda hyped after the two beta weekends.
