Seasons Extra Content
« on: November 13, 2012, 06:30:39 AM »
There are several items that some members will have access to now that Seasons is available.   If you received the Limited Edition or you ordered through Origin, you should be getting an email from EA with all of your exclusive content registration numbers.  Content numbers are usually 16 digits long.   For people who receive the physical copy of the disc, the limited edition content with have a number inside the case for you to find. 

This is what my email looked like earlier this morning.



If you ordered through Origin (before release date), you may have access to the exclusive The Trick-or-Treat Costumes Pack.   You can go to http://www.thesims3.com/incentive/ep8origin


If you got the limited edition version of Seasons, you will have access to the exclusive Ice Lounge.    You can enter that 16 digit code http://www.thesims3.com/incentive/seasonsredeem.


There is also a free registration reward for registering your game with TheSims3.com.  Once you have registered your game and it shows up on your "My Page", you should get prompted to download Seasons Wall Decal Pack from the TS3 store. 


In my experience, the top two websites do not stay up forever.  They have already taken down the Supernatural ones and that was a little over two months ago.   Even if you're not ready to download the content, if you have the codes, it might be a good idea to go ahead and register them.

Once you've entered your codes - give your purchase history 10 minutes to load the items before starting to panic.   

If your codes don't work, contact customer support and they will be more than willing to help you out.   I contacted them through Origin for a chat window when I didn't get my codes with Supernatural.  The person I talked to was very helpful and courteous.  We were in a conversation for less than 10 minutes before my issue was resolved and we were both on our way to doing other things.

Thanks for the links. My email had the link for the costumes, but the ice lounge one just said to visit the My Games tab in Origin. And it's not there!

A lot of people used Guide comments to ask how to unlock bonus content with Supernatural, so I've put a link to this topic for a while to aid them with Seasons. Thanks Rica!

Just a note, I was able to redeem my Supernatural limited edition content just now. I had to use lower case letters in the web address instead of the capital letters denoted in your case: http://www.thesims3.com/incentive/supernaturalredeem.html

It worked for me.

I just installed Seasons (hard copy) but I can't find out how to get the limited edition content (ice lounge). I went to that link you put up Ricalynn (http://www.thesims3.com/incentive/SeasonsRedeem.html) but putting in the code I got to register the game there does nothing (and that's the only code I can find). No emails about it in my inbox, nothing new in my purchase history. I've registered the seasons game with my sims3site account.

Anyway, I'm about to load the game for first time with Seasons so hopefully somehow it's already on there...

You say you have a hard copy Pally.. you mean a physical disc from a shop? In the case did you have a couple of pieces of paper? I have the piece with the game registration code as well as one advertising the new stuff pack due in January plus there is one advertising Sim City due aut next year. On the back of the Sim City one is the code for the ice lounge.

Yes I got a physical disc mailed from JB Hi Fi. In my box there is also those 3 papers, but the one advertising sim city does not have a code on the back. It just says "Register your game to get additional content" and "Already a community member? Visit your My Page to add your serial code for The Sims 3 Seasons". But no code. I tried entering the game registration code, and that registered with my page that I have seasons, but no sign of any limited edition content.
Meanwhile my game is freezing soon after loading so I haven't played much yet. :(

That's weird that it doesn't have the code on it. This is what mine looked like (I just erased the actual code on the image) You might have to contact JB to start with and see if they have any suggestions.

Hmmm mine doesn't look like that at all. It has a picture of sims with umbrellas (no ice lounge) and no code. I'll have to ring JB tomorrow - maybe they gave me a pack that wasn't limited edition? I preordered - so it should be automatically limited edition, right?

I pre-ordered at EB and for that it was automatically the limited edition. On the front of the case, does it say Limited Edition? Mine has a red strip across the top that says Limited Edition and in the top left corner is a yellow box that says "Includes Exclusive Chillout Ice Lounge"

No there's nothing like that on my box! Just a plain old cover - no mention of limited edition or exclusive content. This is wierd - I ordered it months ago online, and got an email on wednesday to say it had been shipped. It arrived today. Oh well, I'll just have to call them tomorrow I guess. I'm not particularly fussed about not having the ice lounge, it's just that I really thought I'd ordered limited edition by preordering...
And meanwhile my game freezes soon after loading - just about to try again after a factory reset...

Can someone help me? I want to give my origin exclusive costume pack code to a friend because I don't want it. I already registered my game but I didn't register the costumes code. Is it tied to my account or is it a separate entity that can be redeemed by someone else?

Honestly? I'd contact EA and ask. Logically speaking, unless they built the connection into the system, it should work. And, if they built that connection in, then why would we need the code? Still, better to check than mess up your account, I'd say.
