    If you bought your game in origin you dont need to re-register. you are already registered.

    if you are logging in with the same account you use for origin, you should be registered already in this site and can redeem the code in the pages i mentioned.

    I never received a redemption code from Origin for the Dark Industrial Set; I'll give it a couple of days.

    Did you pre order and you are in the US correct?

    A advisor told me a few minutes ago on the EA chat that they will be sending those out over the next 24 hours, and that if I don't recieve mine after that, to contact them, and they will get me a code. I never recieved my barnicle bay code for the IP origin pre-order. However, this one, I really want.

    I didn't order my game through Origin. I picked up a Limited Edition copy at Best Buy. (I am posting here, because it is the only help thread I saw for bonus content issues.)

    I registered my game, and I was able to get the Cosmic Cosmetics set. No problem there.

    However, when I enter the code for the exclusive limited edition content--the Quantum Power Pack--it won't go through and I get a message that says "We're sorry, this code has already been used!"

    Your help will be greatly appreciated. I am contacting technical support in the meantime.

    Thank you.

    I too never got my Origin pre-order bonus code. Odd, it usually comes in before I get the game.

    Update: I contacted customer support and they gave me a code. if another comes via e-mail, I'll share it with someone. I doubt I'll get one.

    I too have not gotten a code for the Dark Industrial Set.

    I pre-ordered the physical disk from Origin. Got my game today. It showed the Dark Industrial Set on my invoice, but I have never gotten an email with a redemption code.

    Since I paid an extra $7 (shipping) just to get this Origin extra set, I will be really unhappy if I don't get it. I usually pre-order from Amazon and get free release day shipping.

    Yes on both counts -- I received my game today, and I preordered a few weeks ago not long after the Dark Industrial Set was announced.

    ah... this is embarrassing... but what if I lost mine? I was going though my emails and deleting old ones, the one I got for those redeem codes must have been among them. Can I get new codes? I got the Limited edition with the Quantum Power pack and Dark Industrial set.

    I bought my game from GameStop and I get the same message when I enter the code.

    "We're sorry, this code has already been used!"

    Can someone tell me what to do to fix this?

    I just got my code for the Dark Industrial Set -- will check later for it on my Purchase History. Looks like they're getting around to catching up with the backlog. 8)

    I bought mine through Amazon - who advertised the Quantum Power Pack as a pre-order special.
    *Did not receive a code*.
    Amazon customer service said they know nothing about bonus content. EA customer service said it's up to Amazon to give me a code. I notice someone at Amazon got the code from EA but none for me. Really unhappy with both Amazon and EA about this. It seems like EA could make it right if they wanted to. I do have proof of that pre-order. Won't bother to pre-order in the future. Neither store is interested in customer service.

    I do have a screen shot of the Amazon page advertising the pre-order bonus, BTW.

    :D Sure hope so. I preordered the SP and EP at the same time and registered the game the day it came. Origin sent a confirmation that it was coming, but no code for the industrial set and I haven't recieved on since.

    Doesn't show Into The Future even though I preordered it from Origin AND DOWNLOADED and installed it. Something is wrong.
