    O My!, I may have a problem. I logged into the Uber website and went to the link "My Keys" and "My Account" It doesn't show anything. I did verify the email address. Should I be worried?

    I did keep a copy of my PayPal Trasaction ID from the time I made the purchase. I hope that will help if I got overlooked.

    did you get an email telling you that you are in already? They are sending out mails in waves. So your key might not be active just yet.

    No email stating I was "in". My son saw the Story on Reddit about Uber's latest update stating those who supported the KickStarter were already in.. So that's what prompted me to look into this today. My KickStarter $50 dollar contribution was made in September of 2012. Since then I honestly forgot about it.

    The actual kickstarter update is pretty clear on this;

    "We’re doing this in waves. As you read this, in fact, we’re sending out the first wave of codes to users. Over the coming days, we’ll continue sending out codes until everyone is in. If you don’t get an invite today, don’t worry! We’ll get to you. We promise. Pinky swear!"

    Just gotta wait it out! ;p

    Congrats uber, this is excellent news, and another classy move on your part. I've never known a game company look after their user base as much as you have done.

    Rolling out the codes in batches is actually a good idea. Being an Old Timer who has spent many hours on such a few number of games I can understand Uber's method verses what happened with the SimCity release. At least this way the chance of overloaded servers and stuff like that maybe avoided.

    Question then : did you confirmed your pledge ?
    I remember that KS Backers had to confirm their pledge to get everything right.
    Check this link.
    Beside, have a look at the official FAQ (previous link cames from there), might also be helpful.

    Neumeusis,

    Thank you for that link. I entered my email address and got this message
    "Pledge found. An email has been sent to xxxxx with a secure link to redeem your pledge."
    So I feel much better seeing my pledge was found,

    Thank you once again.

    So since the add-on keys will be activated in the coming days, will this apply to the USB game key keys? If so should there be an 'un-betafied' key in my account or will it show up whenever it gets activated?

    The USB game keys will be made once the game has been completed and is launched into Retail. As the game is currently in Beta, we do not have the thumb drives available yet.

    I'm not really sure thinking when the thumb drives get shipped out because those keys from my understanding our bound to it.;) Other than that I'm waiting for mine too.:cool:

    This is so awesome. When I backed, feels like a long time ago, I chose the $40 tier that was split into two keys, one with beta access. So I've already been playing with my key. The other key I bought for a friend who was a big TA fan. Now I'm really looking forward to giving it to him, since he can get in earlier now too :) One question, in the Uber store my pledge is listed as "$40 Reward Tier Bundle" - These sorts are included in this announcement right? I don't want to tell my mate and get his hopes up to early!

    I believe the $40 tier bundle for the Kickstarter pledge granted one Beta key. When you finalized your pledge, did you buy a Retail key as well? If you'd like to send a ticket to support to find out more about your purchase, please email support@uberent.com or submit a ticket from here: http://support.uberent.com

    That's not the issue though, because you should always assume prices will drop. We were just kind of annoyed that other people paid the same amount as we did and got into the game sooner, all because we paid early to make sure Uber had extra money for development. It wasn't really a big deal to me at the time though, and now I'm just too excited that I'll be getting my key soon to care about that sale at all.

    Yes, the USB thumb drives will come later.
    But i remember that they "include" a retail game key also.
    These keys are not concerned by this operation ?

    Thanks I'll email now. I'm pretty sure I finalized the split, one beta access and one retail, totalling two copies, it was one of the available tiers on Kickstarter :)
