Also on Xbox One make sure to quit out the app through the Xbox Guide when you stop playing. I heard that if you don't the timer can still run in the background. I'll probably hard reset just to be safe.

I've got Andromeda at PreLoad 17March 2017. How do I find out my specific Access preload time/start time? Sorry if I'm being obtuse. Do you mean your start time for the Origin Access trial? On the Origin web page, take a look at your game library, it'll tell you the specific date and time on the box art picture. If the game is not there yet, you'll find it in the Origin Access - Play First Trials section to add it to your library. It says "March 15, 2017 10:30 PM CET" for me. Gonna be a loooooong night.

Will EA Access be available at 16-Mar-2017, 12:01 am EST (or any of you guy's local time)? Please confirm as I will be booking the day off, depending on what time it unlocks. Who can I talk to?

Ugh Sony needs to get their heads out of their butts. Limiting mod support for Fallout 4, being out of the loop when it comes to things like this. If I can say nothing else good about Microsoft I can say atleast they tend to be on top of these sorts of things. I'm getting the PS4 version, but lucky for me I have an Xbox One so i'll play the trial on there. Me too. Because none of my SP progress will carry over, I'm just going to play MP the entire trial.

Do you have confirmation (I live in EST) I remember seeing someone posting a screenshot of those that already have Origin Access that it gives them time release of 10 Hour Trial. I don't have Origin Access and don't intend to get it until 15th March, as I'm considering to keep subscription in case I get pay raise, so I can't verify myself. But either way, Bioware will soon release detailed information on 10 Hour Trial. We just gotta wait til then.

Is it 10 hours of game play or do you get 10 hours straight?

Any time you start the game you start the clock. Anytime you exit the game the clock stops. It will do this till you reach 10 hours. Main menu, pausing, etc all counts toward those 10 hours. When you reach the 10 hours while playing, the game just automatically exits out.

I'm still debating b/t PC and XB1, but, if I did EA - I'd prolly wait and do 5 hours Sat, 5 hours Sun, then continue that night once it unlocked. Or just do MP.

I get that you can try the game, only with Origin access without buying it but can't they just look up at your account to see if you're buying the game + you're having Origin Access, so can you get full access of the game earlier? This one-week wait it's just too much, knowing that I will probably spend the whole 10 hours on day 1 (day 2 max) of the trial.

On XBOX One, is the EA Access download the full game? I'm trying to figure out if I will have to download again once I get the disc. If so I may switch to a digital pre-order so I can pre-download the game.

Didn't need to install again.

Make sure you properly exit out to stop the clock.
Opens EA Access on launch night. Goes to bed forgetting to exit. Oops.

Going back to the Xbox home screen does not necessarily mean you have exited the game. Be sure to open the application menu at the home screen and quit from there to ensure it doesn't remain running in the background.

Gonna shamelessly piggy-back on this thread since it's kinda related...
Do we have to do anything special to get the MEA trial with Origin Access? I've seen ppl say it shows up as a seperate executable in Origin's My Library, but for me it doesn't. When I go in Origin Access --> Free Trials --> MEA Get it Now, it pulls me to the MEA store page and nothing happens
Ok, I actually fixed my problem while composing this reply. But it seems like it's a bug so here's some info for all the people who will complain on the 16th that they can't play the trial: If you want the "MEA Trial" to show up in your Library, go click the "Get it now" button in the Origin web page, not in the Origin app. That way the trial will show up in your library. I think the bug happens if you already pre-ordered the game.

It's 10 hrs total, so it can be broken up like all EA/Origin Access trials.
I'll use the trial for straight up multiplayer, since the single player is gated and I can waste hrs in an RPG just wandering around, reading lore, exploring, etc. I want to get a good feel of the new dynamic cover system anyway.
