How will we get our beta keys?

Yup! You'll get an email when the beta keys come out, and there's a post somewhere on how to convert it to a steam key. Possibly a stick post.

Key in, converted to Steam, download underway.

Woot!!

Lucky I'm still waiting for mine

same here

PLANETARY ANNIHILATION
Description
Beta Game Key (beta and retail access)
Status
Not yet eligible for activation

Yea buddy, you are not the only one.

Same for me.

But those that wait, does not wait invain.

How big is the download?

Was hoping it was only the emails taking time

I guess its not just me with no email yet

ya there are a bunch of us waiting anyone feel like having a game with me whenever i get my key?

They're going out. Sending 18,000 emails takes a while.

wow 18,000? good thing we will have extra planets to fight over else it might get a bit cramped

Then there is no time Toulouse.

That is a terrible joke ;D.
Instead of obsessively reloading my gmail. I shall obsess over all the videos of the game so far

Gotta use interns for something I guess

Can i ask i pledged 40€("Early access to the Beta") back while kickstarter campaign was going also in uber store>my key>type> it say "beta". But looking at store main page i see beta access only for 60€ WARFARE edition. Do i need to worry? thanks

What was the point of being an early backer for Beta access? PA it is already available on Steam with Beta access, so people who buy now are getting Beta access immediately!!!

"We" as early backers should have been pre-sent the keys a couple of days ago in preparation for the beta launch.

What a complete @&£! up! NOT HAPPY!!!

I wish I had mine now I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT Ive been so patient!

No, the kickstarter prices were different than the post-kickstarter prices.

The point of being an early backer is that you don't pay as much as people who 'buy in' to Beta now do.

Also, this is not an "at-ampersand-pound-bang up!" Emailing out beta keys takes time, and is a process. It makes sense that they stagger them out so their end handles the traffic well.

Besides, why would they pre-send keys for a beta that didn't exist then? Beta is a work-in-progress and the operation around it is as well. This isn't launch, this is beta.

Likewise expect a buggy game.
