The North American launch is 12:01 EST. So, around thirteen hours after the Asian launch.


So we talking about getting through a quarter of the game before we can use pre-order content lol. 


I don't have any sense that the pre-order content wouldn't work. Unless you mean because people who ordered through Origin don't have their codes yet. So glad I ordered through Impulse instead.


The preoder content is downloaded and installed when you preload on Origin.


Not for me atleast, the From the ashes DLC and Colector's item's give me an error if I try to DL them.


I was talking about N7 Arsenal Pack and Weapons. You should be able to download From Ashes now.

According to EA's schedule, Brazil is on the North American schdule, so 12:01 EST. Which I guess is somewhere around 2AM Tuesday morning in most of Brazil. 

The Hong Kong Unlock would put you at around 1PM on Monday though.

Exactly. 2am on Tuesday. And then it is Sleepless in São Paulo for me for some 48 hours minimum... poor wife... lucky HK people!

That is what this thread is about. If you use a Hong Kong VPN or Proxy, you can unlock the game on Monday afternoon.

Glad I got my timezones right there, it was São Paulo I was using for reference.

Threads that provide instructions are being deleted. Bioware has said that practice will not result in bans, but that promoting said practice on the forums is not allowed.

You won't be banned for it, but we don't have to encourage the behaviour by allowing such discussion in our forums. Sorry.

End of line.

Right. Not sure why I chose to paraphrase that. ^ There is Stanley's exact quote.

Leaving this up for now as a central location for discussion.. But if it becomes an instruction manual for how to circumvent the regular street date, I will shut it down. THank you.

Don't really think its a good idea, cause people will ask and someone will answer... on the other side there will be always people creating threads... sooo, hard to do something about it. ^^

Or people could just google it. If people want to find out how to do it, they will. They just won't find out from HERE.

Still, I would like to know why the release dates are different from "area" to "area".

What is confusing about that? 12:01AM KST on Tuesday morning is 11AM EST on Monday morning. So the first unlock window is in 14 hours.

This is a weird idea. You guys just can't wait an extra 12-13 hours? XD

Did you catch the fact the we now have confirmation from both Micheal Gamble & Stanley Woo that there will not be any negative consequences if we do activate early?

It just seems silly to not play the game as soon as I can. Not sure why that is so weird to you.
