Downloading is possible without a preorder code, the URL's in the link. Mine was patching the other day just fine.

I doubt they will region lock credit card payments, I think only Asians do that kind of stuff.

log into the swtor.com site and head over to the account info link. it will have a few icons on the right side with locks on them, the top two will link you to info about early access, pre-order items and what edition of the game you ordered.
edit: is everyone getting this error when they try to launch the game?
You do need your boxed copy "cd-key" to continue playing post-early access... thats the reason for the entire "grace period" community uproar.
Myself, i ordered from amazon.co.uk, they sent me the early access code the same day through email, then i proceeded to register it on the site. After the early acess is done and the game launches officially i need to enter the boxed copy code, if my boxed copy is not delivered by that date, i will not be able to play and my account will be frozen until i get the cdkey.
I think WoW U.S only allowed U.S address CC payments. Might be wrong tho, but i think most mmo´s are like that.
Same here. Hopefully this means I have attained SWTOR hipster status.

Yes because as it says, there are no active subscriptions yet.

It kills me to know that I probably won't be in tomorrow.
.
Same here. I didn't redeem my preorder code until Dec 2nd. There's always hope though.

I originally pre-ordered a few minutes after they went live, but had to cancel. Ended up pre-ordering again Nov 26th. Here's to hoping that they overstating their whole "slowly let everyone in" strategy, and they let more people in than we're thinking.
Thats possible since there may be duplicate accounts from multiple preorders. However there are also going to be a bunch of freeloaders too im sure.
I thought that your pre-order code still stays no matter if you cancel? Shouldn't it still be on your account, unless you didn't enter it?

Nope, nothing under pre-order or code redemption. Oh well, a few days won't kill me.
It will for me!

That's what I get. Fully pre-loaded and it still updates when necessary.

It's suppose to say that, the game hasn't launched yet and the servers aren't up, making it impossible for anyone to have an active subscription...because they aren't active yet. The subscriptions will be active when the game goes live. Or earlier if you get early game access time.
Oh I want a cat that big too.
Found out what's wrong with my internet connection, but I'd need a new 15+ foot cat 5 cable to fix it

Hahaha no earlty access for you.
I have a wireless adapter usb thingy. Only problem is that it overheats after a while. And if that fails I can play on my shitty laptop.

Well, I can't speak for him but... early access codes were 'very' limited and went as fast as they came at GameStop. That boat has sailed a while ago. Not sure if it is location dependent or they're just out completely (A manager claimed the latter). Your best bet of getting early access is purchasing it from Origin or Amazon, etc. at this point.
Gamestop has more codes now, I don't know if you can call them or something.

You will be notified by email on the day that you get access. No early heads up.
