SDCC 2011 Update: Flashpoint Hands-On Schedule – RSVP

As mentioned last Sunday, BioWare has been working overtime to secure some extra playtime for TOR fans who may be in San Diego, but do not have a badge to get into the convention. Better yet, this special play time will allow players to play either of the first Flashpoints in the game – The Esseles (Republic) or The Black Talon (Empire)!

Today, Senior Community Coordinator David Bass gave some details on the schedule, and more importantly, the procedure on how to RSVP and get your name on the list for this great opportunity:

Two sessions will be held each night, on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (July 21-23), one at 7PM, and one at 8PM. Each session will accommodate several groups of players for each Flashpoint. If you’re going to be in San Diego next week, and you wish to RSVP for a chance to play, please follow the directions below exactly and in their entirety.

Photo ID will be required for entry. Please note that incomplete RSVP emails WILL NOT be considered for invites. We cannot guarantee your first choice of play time or Flashpoint.

1. Gather the following information:
– Full name (as shown on your ID)
– Preferred Night: Thursday, Friday, or Saturday
– Preferred Time: 7PM or 8PM- Preferred Flashpoint: Esseles (Republic) or Black Talon (Empire)

2. Email all of the above info to events@swtor.com with the subject line: “RSVP for Flashpoint Gameplay at Comic-Con” by 10AM CST on Wednesday, July 13th.

Please note that anyone who wishes to play must send their own RSVP, and invites are non-transferable. Feel free to ask any questions you have below, but do NOT RSVP in this thread!

Important! You must send your RSVP email by 10am CST July 13th. That’s TOMORROW!

So, if you’re going to be in San Diego, this is something you definitely want to be a part of! Head over to the thread for complete info.

  1. I have tried all the ways I could think to get sent to Diego work work that week, but no luck. I sure hope some people who will be able to post get some quality gaming time. Be sure to check for resource nodes !!!!!!

    • I know if I had one hour to get my hands on this game I would start searching for crafting resources. No wait, the other thing — play my butt off and try to keep myself from grinning like an idiot the entire time. :P

  2. Pssh, California. Why don’t these awesome conventions and game shows ever happen in Cleveland? It’s like the San Diego of Ohio! /sigh

    Well, since my friends and I have made Comic Con an annual group trip a few years back, I think I’ll try and drag a few of us to this event. (Coincidentally, I believe only 4 of us will be making it this year…and as far as I know, that is the amount of people required for these flashpoints.)

    Perhaps I’ll finally get a chance to test out the game I’ve been following for what seems like all too long…but has only really been 3 years…
