  • Registered Users Posts: 187 ✭✭TokenWhite


    Was considering buying this but a trial might be a better option, that's if nobody minds pming me the invite


  • Registered Users Posts: 58 ✭✭DesperateCry


    It seems I do need an email to be able to send invites.

    sign up to the trial with an invite and you get 14 days to activate it. Before activating it allows you to download and patch fully and actually advises you not to activate until you are ready to play.

    Source: I signed up on Monday (then got hit with server maint on Tuesday:o)

    should the offer still stand in the first two weeks of april I'd love to (it's Easter Holidays then for me, meaning lots of time :D)
    Thanks a lot!

    I gotta say fair play to Bioware for the trial so soon after the game out, after hearing all sorts about the game from other mmo fans i just sorta kept my money and kept playing wow, but i've been feeling really lackluster about wow for ages. I think i will be subbing after the trial is over :)

    im a big fan of warcraft with a current on-going year's subscription in order to get dialblo 3 for free. I wasnt sure about The star wars mmo so decided to download it over the weekend, unfortunately it took almost the entire weekend to download it and only got around to playing it yesterday evening for a few hours. I really enjoyed it, the story is explained much better than it is in wow because each quest has a cutscene and the quest is read out to you instead of you reading text like ye do in wow. This makes the questing far more interesting and holds the story much better. I will definitely be buying a copy of this game soon and taking up a subscription.

    I got an email of a free trial to get Legacy things ?? Not really interested to be honest.

    I got an email of a free trial to get Legacy things ?? Not really interested to be honest.

    Got that too,
    " We are so excited about Game Update 1.2: Legacy, that we are offering you a limited time opportunity to come back and play at no charge* until April 20, 11:59PM CDT / April 20, 4:59AM GMT. Plus, reactivate your former account by April 22, 12:00PM CDT, 5:00PM GMT, to get the in-game Legacy reward: the Legacy Tauntaun Pet**!"

    The free Tauntaun pet is tempting :rolleyes: , but I think I'll pass.

    Got it as well and i'm started playing again this evening, the trial started a while before the email notification arrived.
