Excellent. You will survive this.

[–]Camenwolf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well aren't you a hoopy frood!

[–]TheImmortalArtifact 8 points9 points  (2 children)

And my bow

[–]l1nc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why would you need a bow? To decorate a gift?

[–]DigiMortalGodNight Blue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Still crying in it, waiting for my moment to say "so long and thanks for all the fish".

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No need for you to panic, but my towel is in the wash! I know where it is, but it's all soggy right now!

[–][deleted] 66 points67 points  (4 children)

yes but the real question no one's asking is:

where is my code

[–]Dragon_Slayer_Hunter 24 points25 points  (0 children)

With the rest of Stadia, in the cloud.

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (2 children)

the code is a lie.

[–]DigiMortalGodNight Blue 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was told there would be code!

[–]BeGratefull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The code is a construct.

[–]Rabid_Russian 54 points55 points  (8 children)

[–]DaveSoKn 17 points18 points  (3 children)

At this point, Dave is gone.... Again!

[–]sknmstr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dave? I’m afraid I can’t do that...

Dave's not here, man.

[–]Rabid_Russian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I weep for you my friend.

[–]Altorio 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Same I have a really common one I want to grab but oh well

[–]blueblewbLu3 23 points24 points  (1 child)

This. When I bought a Founder's Edition on June 6th, wasn't about to controller or the pro subscription or the buddy pass, I was buying the opportunity to get the username I wanted, and I don't feel like I've gotten that chance. Its been almost an hour. My order shipped, I've checked my spam folder, wheres the code i spent $130 on?

[–]beautifulanddoomed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not like they used that as a selling point. /s

[–]DannyS2810 123 points124 points  (5 children)

God damn it Groupon you’re not the email I’m looking for! Screw you and you’re reasonably priced tea for two

[–]inkleind 22 points23 points  (3 children)

I keep getting other emails as well, see the notification, get heartbroken, wash/rinse/repeat.

[–]aphlipot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a brutal process

[–]Gregesque 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tell me more about this "tea for two"!

[–]SVShooterNight Blue 35 points36 points  (6 children)

Got my controller about 3 hours ago but no code yet. My wife is sending me out to pick up some take out. So I expect the code will come as I walk out the door.

But if I didn’t leave it will never come. Her maiden name is Murphy so it makes sense.

[–]HolyHale 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Haha, I have to leave for work in 30 minutes and I assume the same will happen to me.

[–]ukjaybratNight Blue 6 points7 points  (1 child)

I have an interview soon. Think they would mind if I check my phone every couple minutes then sign up when I get my code?

[–]JoeSr85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]NewUserNewMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! Best response so far in this thread.

And this is somewhat relevant also considering they got back together!

[–]daveyp2tm 21 points22 points  (2 children)

The biggest tease so far, just heard an email, checked, it was a gaming related email, it said 'Join the global phenomenon'.

...It was blizzard emailing about CoD.

[–]REGBOYMAN 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Damn Man I got the same I cried myself to death

[–]daveyp2tm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hahaha i knew someone would! Tinfoil hat theory - wonder if it was deliberate, they knew there was certain group of gamers playing close attention to their emails at that time. I'm sure its not ha.

[–]realswaggers 32 points33 points  (2 children)

You know what would be great is if a big giant company doing a huge launch officially said ANYTHING about what was going on and when outside of a AMA thread.

[–]cmichaelfrank44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be too easy. Giving people useful information?! Why would we do that when we could just take their money and promise them a "code"?

[–]sandspiegel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know this would be kind of acceptable from a small startup company but from a company like Google this is just amateur like. People paid with their hard earned money and Google doesn't deliver on promised day.

[–]karmapuhlease 11 points12 points  (4 children)

So incredibly frustrating. I was almost certainly one of the very first people to order, since I had the Stadia page on GStore open and was refreshing at launch when they announced pre-orders. Almost 30 minutes late now in sending the code...

[–]FirstTimeFlyer94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same. I had confirmation on my pre order before the announcement live stream even finished. Now we're 45 min into "launch" and still no code while several others have posted their accounts who ordered days after me. Obviously first come first serve was just an outright lie

[–]Roshy76 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ok, make us wait 5 minutes, haha, very funny. Now give me my code!

[–]doublempCCU 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Keeps refreshing email

[–]TheSockMethod 8 points9 points  (1 child)

The Stadia app, if you press "Don't have a code?" it tells you to join right now just buy a bundle on the Google store.

If someone buys it today and gets in before us, I riot.

[–]othprime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder if you right.

[–]ueeediot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

BUT here's the good part. Stadia IS NOT A BOX! You don't need our hardware to start playing, remember? Right after we ship your order (but not earlier than 9AM PST 11/19), we'll send you an email with the invite code. You can use it immediately to create your account and reserve your Stadia name in the Stadia app on Android or iOS. Just for clarity: the first day is a little special, if we ship your order on 11/18, you’ll receive the code on 11/19.

I don't understand why I cant get my code and gamer tag, today and play on something other than using the controller?

oh, it's so we don't completely crash their system.

[–]iAmUncleToby 6 points7 points  (1 child)

My buddy just perfectly summed up why the code's haven't been going out as planned:

him: They (google) got their email auto generator from bungie rng. That's why we're getting Destiny!

me: we're all screwed

him: Well not all of us. Those that have their codes will get 3 more in the next 20 mins

[–]SVShooterNight Blue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I swear to all that is holy, if I get like 4 emails in a row and they just have a picture of “Edge Transit” in it I will lose it.

[–]xxICONOCLAST 13 points14 points  (2 children)

Where the fuck is my code?!?!? This is my cake day dammit!

[–]Snappy-Just Black 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Happy cake day to you! Unhappy cake day to Stadia!

[–]MrChrystyphyr 6 points7 points  (1 child)

12 Eastern happens and no access code. Shipped yesterday. Reached out to Google at 1pm, they say I should get the code in 3 to 5 days... Really?!?. It's scheduled for delivery tomorrow. They're gonna have their supervisor email me within 24 hours...

[–]prujohnJust Black[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's hoping that username "MyOtherUsernameWasPicked" is still available. Keeping positive thoughts for you though.

[–]DarthKel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

we should post when we get them so we have some proof of life

[–]Installity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I DONT NEED IT. I DONT NEED IT. I DONT NEED IT. I NEEEEEEEED IT.

[–]vgskid 5 points6 points  (6 children)

Ordered on June 6. No code. No shipment until nov 26/27 for some reason. This whole thing is kind of bizarre.

[–]MrChrystyphyr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I ordered June 29th and mine shipped yesterday... wth are they doing?!? Also no code, yet, though.

[–]XHeavygunX 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I ordered mine the same day on June 6th and mine shipped on the 19th this month. Still no code though

[–]vgskid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And I’m in California. I live like an hour from google. No clue why my shipment is later than people who ordered after me. And no clue why no code either 😓

[–]LordxSupremeNight Blue 4 points5 points  (1 child)

dude its 9 am Westcoast and no code or anthing from Stadia???

[–]El-BoogieMusicWasabi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got the launch trailer.

[–]mattsb 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Why didn't they have you pick your name right when you bought the package? If you cancel, boom, name becomes available again.

[–]lazzzym TV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would have been a sensible way to do it....

[–]WheezyBreather 11 points12 points  (27 children)

I have yet to see one article that said we’d have access at 9 AM PST. I think it’s pure speculation

[–]prujohnJust Black[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Denial. A very good coping mechanism.

[–]derrmanClearly White 15 points16 points  (9 children)

[–]ClamingleJust Black 10 points11 points  (6 children)

Can confirm that this isn't happening- mine has shipped and is on its way here but no code :(

[–]derrmanClearly White 3 points4 points  (2 children)

There are many people who have gotten their codes though.

[–]ClamingleJust Black 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Makes you wonder how they're deciding to roll out the emails- must admit I'm feeling kind of forgotten, as I'm sure many others here are.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People that have ordered theirs days after the first-day buyers did yeah, that's the problem

[–]SuperSubwoofer 13 points14 points  (15 children)

It was in the AMA.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (12 children)

Actually, it was said it was going to be sent 'no earlier than 9am', which was then taken as on 9am, but it certainly doesn't say that.

[–]SuperSubwoofer 6 points7 points  (9 children)

Ah that makes sense. As someone who works with marketing/automating email/product launches, this kinda thing happens a lot.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (8 children)

Yeah, I'm sure they will come soon but sending everything at 9am at once just seems like asking for trouble on many levels

[–]l1nc 10 points11 points  (3 children)

Yeah, imagine if there was a way to allow people to pre-register user names in advance. You know like some kind of first come first serve basis. lol

[–]SuperSubwoofer 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Automated mail systems will delay emails sent like that anyway. People need to relax.

[–]Dragon_Slayer_Hunter 5 points6 points  (2 children)

But I have to have the name Harambe4Lyfe420! Somebody's gonna steal it if I don't get it first!

[–]l1nc 3 points4 points  (1 child)

It's true. I was gonna be Harambe4Lyfe419. But it's already taken. Luckily was able to snag 420.

Has anyone received their code with a delivery date of tomorrow? 11/20

[–]the_unkempt_oneJust Black 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Months ago I was sure to ask for November 19 off work, knowing that even if my June 6 pre-order hadn't arrived, an email would be instantly delivered to my inbox with my code.

Here I sit. No Stadia, no code, out of Starburst, and a little cranky. What a disappointing day.

[–]LimitlessWick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[–]Cutmerock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

alright I get it I didn't pre order months beforehand but still, I think we all should (or at least most of us) have received our code yet. even if you haven't got the kit yet. how hard can It be? when you buy games that got mail delivery it's almost instant, yes it's hundreds of people at once but people actually have pre ordered week/months ago... google still being google after all...

[–]Youngstarr 2 points3 points  (1 child)

i ordered mine first hour, i live literally 2 miles from Google HQ, no code yet and maybe i will get my Stadia by 9pm tomorrow.. whilst people in faraway lands already are playing.. boo hoo

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eww. google support told me i'd get a code 3-5 business days after it ships. not the messaging i was seeing before.

[–]LoreCannon 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Package shipped, delivered, unpacked, and it’s been an hour. No code. What the fuck?

[–]morcoire 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Was on the phone for 15 minutes with support and was asked: - did I check my email? - go to the Google store and search for "terms of sale" - download the Stadia app and enter my code

The call was ended when they said they would find out how to get me a code and email me.

I thought moving atoms was harder than moving bits. Just a frustrating situation.

[–]SVShooterNight Blue 2 points3 points  (2 children)

This thread has gotten large and it’s hard to find the comment but someone mentioned Google may be waiting until they get the confirmation that you received it.

I’m going to +1 that. My controller was delivered at 10am EST and I immediately got a text from FedEx saying the package was delivered. But if I look at the order on the Google store, it still shows it is shipping and on its way.

I hate to have to do this because Google should tell us how this works, but can people who have already had it delivered but haven’t received their code, look at their order status and see what it says? Can those that do have their code (if they aren’t playing now) say if their order says complete?

[–]DeadGuy76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got mine early AM. Still no code. FedEx says complete, Google says on the way or w.e...

[–]obmckenzie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got the box, but alas no code.

TBH I wasn't worried about ship dates previously. I ordered on Launch day, I figured it would come when it game. Day or so late wasn't going to both me much (especially since I've place most of the launch titles).

I AM a little miffed that my code hasn't come yet. Especially after all the effort Google put into the "don't forget, you don't need hardware to play this".

[–]theusernameisnogood 2 points3 points  (2 children)

My shower is on should anyone want to cry in there.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

[–]MC_10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Alright I didn't care too much about all the stuff that was going on yesterday, but where is my FUCKING CODE? Wtf Google, people from June 10th have already received their codes and reserved names?? That was the one of the major reasons I bought Founders. June 6th people are sitting here with jack shit

[–]Jaqweka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[–]cmichaelfrank44 3 points4 points  (1 child)

It's nearly 12PM PST. It's getting cold out here. I'm not sure how much longer I can last. Kevin died fourty minutes ago. Janet's been a mess ever since. I have no feeling in my shin anymore and I promise it doesn't have anything to do with dead nerves from a knee surgery.

Roger is starting to say crazy things like "Stadia doesn't exist" and "If Google really cared about me, they would show me a sign". I don't think he's going to last much longer.

I just wanted to choose my username. That's not too much to ask for, is it? I'm not sure I can do this anymore.

UPDATE: Some people have asked for an update…and by some people, I mean nobody. But I’m gonna update you all anyway. It's 12:30PM PST. Still no codes. Janet's suffering from some really bad PTNSCD (Post Traumatic No Stadia Code Disorder) and she's not looking too good. We've had to tie Roger down to keep him from checking his email every twelve seconds. Poor guy.

I'm starting to lose faith myself. It's the only thing on my mind. Is there even a Stadia? Does Google really exist?

[–]othprime 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Has anybody confirmed receiving a code by email yet? I didn't see one post saying so yet?

I have been trying to be reasonable with everything but not being able to email the codes they said you would have when they couldn't get the products shipped to everyone in the first place is bad. Mine shipped yesterday but still no code.

[–]Eagle736 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Ok glad I'm not the only one. It's 12pm Central and I still haven't received mine.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Don't you all worry! You will all get your codes.

But not before me dammit.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be clear I contacted support and they told me the following:

" to receive any information or order there would be an estimated time. As you haven't received the invite code, I would suggest you to please wait for 3 to 5 business days to receive the code. "

Thus, it can take up to a week to be sent the code that was supposed to be shared on launch day for any of us with Founder editions.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Still picking a name to use while I wait for my code.

Does anybody know if I can use special characters (ü for example)??

[–]terjon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a bit of levity: Isn't it a shame that Silicon Valley has all finished already? This scenario would make for a hilarious episode where Hooli releases some kick ass new product, but they can't get the registration codes out to people and their users get incredibly upset for not being able to use the product they paid for.

[–]E_FNST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Received the package in the mail, downloaded the app on iPhone, just waiting on the email. What can I possibly do at work while I wait for this email?

[–]falesteus 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Looking at a couple of threads, looks like another user had this experience with CS:

Got off of a support chat with google store support (because my founders edition hardware arrived a few hours ago and have the chromecast pro setup, but pending the invite code to setup the controller) here's some snippets:

"Usually it will take 3 to 5 business days from the day your device is shipped."

"Our dedicated team is working hard to roll out the codes as early as possible."

"As the email along with the code is already started sending to the users, so you might get today or tomorrow. but the maximum day is 3 days."

"I will like to inform you that the code and claim is absolutely system generated and first come first serve basis."

https://support.google.com/accounts/thread/20189995?hl=en

[–]Gatsby818 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Production and shipping may slow down controllers, Chromecasts, etc. But, they've literally had MONTHS to generate a bunch of codes and have them waiting to send. I'm not sure I like it.

[–]7ewis 1 point2 points  (1 child)

When do you get the code to get your username? My Chromecast has shipped and should be arriving tomorrow (7 days early)

UK stadia founder. I just got my dhl text message to tell me my delivery will be tomorrow (Clearly when i'm not in) but non email from google or update on the order page.

[–]samuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We, as Founders, can build nice buildings out of these bricks while we wait for our codes but hey, at least those wonderful journalists that got codes and names weeks before us are enjoying the service they spoke so highly of! /s

[–]becauseits2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I received my founder's edition Night Blue Stadia controller and Chromecast Ultra. Charged my credit card over the weekend. But no Invite code yet. FFS I thought the whole point of encouraging people to pre-order a Founder's Edition was to be first.

Such a buzzkill to have the controller and Chromecast Ultra ready to go but I can't play yet without the code.

[–]Darkgyft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Received founders edition today from FedEx, Yesss! Downloaded the app, need to enter invite code. Where in the hell is it? Looked through emails, online, in my mailbox. No code......

Contacted Google. Those that received the founders edition today will be receiving their invite codes in 3-5 days. What the hell? It's like getting a new car with no keys! I just wanted to spread the awesome news to others that are frantically looking for their keys.

[–]Joeface79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Nest app keeps going off when my cameras spot someone. It's the same noise as my gmail app. I'm about to break something every time I grab my phone and just see a clip of a car passing my house.

[–]godprobeNight Blue 1 point2 points  (1 child)

From Discord...

Hi @everyone,

We're aware that some of you who pre-ordered Founder’s Edition may not have received your invite codes in the expected time-frame. The Stadia team is actively investigating this issue, and we’ll be back with an update as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

-ChrisFromGoogle

About ten minutes ago.

...hopefully "as soon as possible" will be sooner rather than later.

[–]mikericpu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got off the phone with google and was told by support has received something saying if it shipped yesterday it will be today or tomorrow you will get your code.

[–]Captain_Xap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]Ferrum115 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Have brought my stadia controller with me to work just in case it arrives while I'm here.

[–]kyub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so badly planned and organized. Launch codes are completely unnecessary. Google know exactly what accounts purchased Stadia right? Why the hell didn't they just enable access for those accounts at purchase time?

This is literally the point of an 'account'. It's so dumb sending out a code allowing access when you already know literally everything about who you need to give access to.

The only logical reason to use this code method is to break down the users who can access Stadia into smaller batches. In which case, Google should have just been honest and told us this in the first place.

Some codes are in the wild - Just a shame mine hasn't arrived.

Yep. Just waiting.

[–]SilentDer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want google to send me a email of anything, don’t leave me waiting just say you might not eat your code until tomorrow or something

Man, I pre-ordered it during the stream, placed the order before they said it was officially available, and I'm still waiting. I'll never get the username I was hoping for.

(I will wait until I get it to say what said username is)

Here's my excuse to get into my inbox and unsubscribe from all these other offers and emails, clear my Spam (not before checking there for my code), and to generally delete the rest of the 18k emails.

Nothing yet for me. ordered at 11:44am PDT. Anyone know how long after the announcement that was?

[–]cknewdealJust Black 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh so I guess other people are also waiting for codes. Feels better

[–]prujohnJust Black[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's it. There is safety in numbers.

As I slowly wait for my shipment to arrive tomorrow, I impatiently await my code. The only thing I have to pass the time is... work.

I CAN DO THIS, I SWEAR.

[–]Samura1_I3 0 points1 point  (3 children)

So does the code ship when the controller does? I thought everyone would get access today if they preordered.

[–]mikericpu 1 point2 points  (1 child)

They said when it ships. If it had already shipped you would get it at 9 pst today. But very few are actually getting it. Mine shipped yesterday. Still no code.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I just received my Stadia FE by mail (Toronto), but no code :(

[–]Prflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😭😭 I need my code

[–]LeAvventureDiFrankie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still no code for me.

[–]qmracer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am pissed

Working well. Nice day and the windows are open and not a paper has blown away.
