Why can't I fly at level 1?

[Archived Post]

I purchased the pre-order from gamestop and entered the key on Monday. I am now playing the headstart but I have no ability to fly at level 1. The email I got from gamestop says I will need to buy any pre-order items from the c-store, but though a window opens when I click c-store, absolutely no items are for sale (at any price), Neither in the unlocked tab or the regular tab.

Anyone else having this problem?

Those bonuses will not be available until you apply your retail code next week after actually buying the game.

It's because all of those bonus items/powers are tied to your retail key which you don't have yet. You'll have to wait for the actual game to arrive with the retail key and then enter it. Then you'll get those things.

Man..NO ONE reads the material that comes along with pre-orders and retail games.

Granted, it is confusing since there are different rules for US and EU customers.

It's useful for those with a land-based travel power, assuming it isn't restricted to the Tutorial.

I'd like to know how you manage to reach level 5 in 15 minutes, though. Even without reading the mission dialogues, it takes me at least 45.

By which time the majority of your toons will already have it :D

But I guess it'll be useful for future creations too.

So people that pre-order from gamestop have the ability to have in total 3 travel powers? Unfair but thats life I guess. I just get 2 helms and a grenade bandolier. I can't even get into the game until I get my box. That won't come for like 1 1/2 weeks.
