Help! Cant Find My Import Code On RB: Lego Game!

[bjryan2008]

Hi all,
I cant seem to find my import code in the manual for RB: Lego. Its usually on the back of the manual right? The back of my manual has a advergistment for Legoland in California. Where can I find the code?

Let me know, thanks in advance!

It's on a separate card insert.

[Stig_the_Pig]

don't know... isn't there an export key on PSN/Xlive?

[murph]

Did you buy the Wii version? No import at all.

Otherwise, it's not on the manual but on an insert card instead.

[Doom878]

Well played HMX since rental places won't give out the insert cards.

Well played indeed... it seems their right to protect themselves.

[Transbrak]

Just opened mine to explain further if you haven't found it yet. When I opened it, it was the first thing I saw, It's less of a card and more paper. It says Rock Band Song Export Feature at the top.

[KC-Rock]

Mine was inserted with the spanish side up - but I knew immediately what it was. Definitely smart of HMX and I'm glad I bought the game now instead of being tempted to cut corners.

[Transbrak]

Plus it says one time use on it as well.

Serves the idiot thieves right :D

there goes your plan of steeling from them ;)

And my plan of stalking them?

[malignus]

if it makes you feel any better....those of us who have bought the game and want to export it keep getting an "unable to retreive information from xbox live" error and can't export the freakin thing anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kidmitt]

Good thing I'll probably play this for a month or so before I get around to exporting. All the kinks should be worked out by then.

[Baanu_Rass]

I guess I'll have to settle for stacking them.

[solidsnakejt]

What about skating with them?

[Soja]

lol owned

+1 HMX

[solidsnakejt]

What about skating with them?

or cooking it a big juicy steak?

[Flan26]

We don't yet know if OP bought or rented it, right?

Boy oh boy, I'll never get tired of these threads from renters.

[solidsnakejt]

of course he rented it, he is new and didnt reply in the thread
also, as it seems, the code is the first thing you see when you open the box....so there goes the credibility:cool:

[malignus]

I , honestly , only bought it to get some of the good songs exported to be used in RB2 it's little more than another "track pack" for me. It's more of a convenience thing for me....I prefer to be able to just lump all of the tunes together in one game and be able to play any of them any time I want. I usually give the disc to my nieces and nephews after I export them so that they can play the games and I just play the songs in RB2. Unfortunately HMX is making me wait to export these and I'm getting slightly annoyed. :-(

it gives you a reason to try it out for a while, and see what the carreer is all about, and get gamerpoints or whathever you get in your console of choice;)

btw, i agree with you band choices, we need them :)

See, this is what I'm trying to tell people complaining right now.

They just spent $50 on the game, and any sell back value will likely be half that at best. So why not take the week or so it may be before you can fully export the title to actually play the game you bought and see if it's worth keeping around.

It supports DLC, so it's not like it's a finite setlist. The LEGO building elements are something that have me very excited to start messing around with...

Treat it like a rental at least. Besides, the trade-in value for this game won't take a significant hit until after the Export feature is online and people start ripping and selling.

[elfreako]

Hmm, since the export didn't kick in yet, I guess no one really knows how much the stores take em back for yet. I'm curious to find out.

[T-Hybrid]

Typically a game sold back on Day 1 caps at 50% retail. But I wouldn't expect more than $22 bucks back for this since it's not as big a title.

I got a bit more than 50% for AC/DC, but that was on day 1 indeed. I usually don't care what they go for, as I'm just glad to clear shelf space, but in this case I'm far from sold on the setlist. A bargain may convince me to cough up for the ten songs or so that are interesting.

Well said. I'm planning on playing the crap out of L:RB, getting some achievements and then eventually exporting to RB2. I'm mostly excited to play L:RB without any of the RB1 or RB2 songs. It feels like I've played those tunes a million times, so it'll be nice to give those songs a breather and just concentrate on my DLC along with the Lego tracks.

[T-Hybrid]

The AC/DC Track Pack benefited from being exclusive to Wal-Mart. So for a while GameStop was happy to get them (as it made them the only other place you could get it).

The price quickly dropped though once more people started exporting and selling the disc.

Whats intresting about it? First he asked how it works. And you called BS for some lame reason. An hour later he asked where to find the code.

I really dont understand your issue with him. Its not like he posts with annoying colors.

[Mikey35]

I am happy that you cant rent it and steal the code, that was a great move!!! Hopefully it will help sell more units and perpetuate(sp) a great game!!! They do need to make profits to keep this platform alive and I think that we all should do our best to help that along if we like the product.

[bjryan2008]

I found the code (was stuck in the manual) and imported the songs, really fun so far!

Right.

Except that's not how it's shipped. It's a flier thats added to the packaging process last. It's the first thing you see when you open the case, the next thing being a white flier about safety tips, and then behind that is the manual.

Also, if you have the game, why are you on ebay looking up codes?

[monkeyfish]

Jeez, man. Why not tap his phone and put a suit to follow him to school every morning? No need to go all Sherlock on the guy, even if he just rented the game.

[Ehfahq]

Hes trying to prove something.

What that is...........I have no clue.

rofl, yeah well, he is trying to save face, leave the poor guy alone:D

[DaffyDan42]

I walked into Best Buy, bought the game, and then walked over to GameStop and sold the game for $17. The clerk explained that the resell value is so low because they expect a lot of people to buy the game primarily for the export code.

Hmm you realize that you need the disc to do the export right so you screwed yourself.

Or this story is made up.

i'd hope he is just making it up...if not, he is an idiot

[RealMessiah]

I had no issues. Probably due to traffic and those having trouble are likely an extremely small minority.

Awesome. I like that.

[californication]

I went to Blockbuster to see if they had this or Band Hero, but neither of them were there. I guess it's a sign, I'll have to buy them both. -_-

[cherokeesam]

Thought somebody said you had to have the disc in-drive to export. If so, then go ahead and steal that code all you want --- won't do you a damn bit of good without the LRB disc.

[Der_Lex]

Any discussion about illegally procuring codes from rental stores and the like ends here, gentlemen. Nobody likes a miser or a thief, especially not on the forums owned by the people that you're trying to rip off.

[Kidmitt]

I bought it, and I don't see it anywhere. PS3 version. What do I need to do?

It comes on a piece of paper separate from the manual. Mine was behind the manual.

[T-Hybrid]

My import is now complete (after getting cutoff mid download thanks to a 2 hour power outage). Haven't gone back to RB2 yet to see what new challenges I've created.

...I imagine at least one or two (Bon Jovi, Foo Fighters). Should probably check to see if it created any LEGO Rock Band challenges (similiar to RB1)

[thjimmy]

I entered my code and the download appeared in my active downloads queue. t went very quickly, and now the songs are NOT available when I put in RB2.

Any one else run into this? Any suggestions?

Thats pretty odd.

Does anybody know if deleting the song cache and letting the game rebuild it will help?

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Did you just put in the code, or after the code did you put in Lego Rock Band, go to the music store, then do the export?

Because the downloading the export code, is NOT importing the tracks from Lego Rock band. It just sets up the discs for the import.

[T-Hybrid]

It sounds like you downloaded just the Export License but not the actual song pack.

The "quick" download is the Key (called "LEGO Rock Band Export Pack").

Once you download that, you need to go into the LEGO Rock Band Music Store (in-game) and purchase the actual Song Pack (also called "LEGO Rock Band Export Pack").

That is a considerably longer download.

[Jdurgit]

I bought it, and I don't see it anywhere. PS3 version. What do I need to do?

I'm sure you've figured it out by now, but you have to wait until November 12th, at the earliest, in order to redeem your code and get the export.

[hobnailboot]

So, if all I saw was one of those plain white cards covered in text and an instruction book, I would be missing something, yes? (X360)

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Yes you are.

You're missing the DLC download code you enter into the rockband/lego website.

I quoted this one, because it represents what many are saying. And you're right, I didn't go to the music store and do the export. I must have missed that step in my haste to start the x-fer befroe I went to bed.

Now I'm at work and have to dream about LEGO for another 4 hours.

Thanks for the help!

[hobnailboot]

Yes you are.

You're missing the DLC download code you enter into the rockband/lego website.

and my recourse is...??

I mean, can I send a picture of me holding my game disc and receipt and get someone to help me out? Am I SOL? Something else?

[thjimmy]

Tha card was VERY obvious. And it says "KEEP this Card!" and other things to make sure you see and keep it.

[thjimmy]

I just wanted to post a big THANK YOU for everyone's help. The download worked!

And I've actually been playing in the LEGO game. It's pretty cool.

[monkeyfish]

This might theoretically work. I'm gonna assume you're on the 360 to simplify the possibility. If you contacted a HMX guy with pictures of your receipt/game, and give him your gamertag (to make sure you didn't pawn the code off to a friend on your list)...I'm not saying they WILL help you, but they might.

They've given out free Beatles shirts for those that didn't get one. Since this is a significantly larger item, some proof and feelgood optimism may be a necessity.

It's the 12th at 7:45pm...
Token doesn't work!!!!!
WTF?!!
