Yeah went through after about 5. I don't see why it's so hard for them to see the amount of preorders, and make sure they can accept connections faster than 1 per 5 minutes.

Thanks I got it now. Origin sent the email with the codes on at 11 central. I guess I should have assumed that they would do that, since I unlocked the game early. Now I get two new weapons, yay!

edit: And I don't understand what the problem is with the face imports. All of mine came out fine, and I'm on the PC. In fact I think my custom face looks better than it did in 2.

So on the PC, can you import from any post-Collector (this better not be a loving spoiler) save-game? Because I just went and reloaded my Adept and oh God what did I do to his face :gonk: So I used Gibbed to swap in the default face because at least that doesn't look like :pwn: Can I import from that modified save file? Or only the one directly after the final mission?

Probably the Citadel or Spectre Requisitions. The Reckoning armor just gets mailed to you, though.

I haven't found it yet. You certainly don't start with your armor from 2. I saw the inferno armor for sale, but not my awesome Aegis armor or archon visor yet :(. Also don't have my full arsenal of weapons from 2 either. I guess I'll see as I keep playing.

Does my renegade face transfer from ME2? It didn't look like it when I did my import...

edit: what the gently caress it doesn't? it's not red in the first scene. what was the point of my face going red in the 2nd game then?

You can go red in ME3. Paragon/Renegade got overhauled and imports get their scores reset to reflect the change.

I'm in Australia and have the day off tomorrow, so I figure a little ME3 would be a great way to spend my night.

Does anyone know if EA is accepting of proxies to unlock games early? I've never had or heard of anyone having problems with Valve and Steam, but knowing EA's rocky history and how they've treated customers in the past I want to be pretty sure that I'll be ok and that my account won't be banned.

Thanks for any info in advance.

I forgot about that. Wasn't it because of some glitch or the game just wasn't able to carry over paragon/renegade points between the 3 games?

As an Australian who must wait to pick up his hardcopy N7 Edition on Thursday at 9:00am (that's 2:00pm Wednesday US time), may I just say... gently caress you all. With a Dragon's Tooth. And no lube.

Seriously, enjoy your early release date. I'll be back once the Reapers have been crushed beneath Kara Shepard's heel. Here's the the end of a long drat wait.

They're supposed to be making it available at midnight PST. You will download it off the PSN, where you preorder it from. Just go to the game's page again.

Yes, you get a list of careers, then a list of every save for that career. It lists your major choices on the right side of the screen.
