For Backers Only: Pre-Order Upgrade rollout

This will be limited in appeal to only people who had asked about this. You asked for upgrades, we have upgrades. We JUST launched this, literally 15 minutes ago. We'll be announcing this publicly tomorrow, but in the meantime:

https://store.uberent.com/

(Do a hard refresh if you still only see the old store with no Upgrade option or the new pre-order package)

If you login with your UberNet account, you will now have options to upgrade your pre-orders. This ONLY applies to pre-orders for the moment. We will be doing something for early backers to at least get beta and/or alpha access upgrade options as well, but that's still in the works.

We also unveiled a new pre-order option on the page, but we won't be announcing it publiclly till tomorrow.

If you were wanting to upgrade, or just want to go help hammer the website and check out the changes, please take a look.

If you run into any problems, please post here immediately. And feedback is greatly appreciated!

To be clear, we will be rolling out something for early backers as well, beyond the upgrade options you had when you finalized. We just aren't ready to talk about those yet.

Wonderful! Wonderful! Maybe I can upgrade to the 140 Dollar stage and have a planet named, or something. I cant wait to see what the kickstarter backer upgrades will be. And from what I can see, Im safe in terms of the Delta.

And remember peoples! The more you spend, the better they can make the game!

nice to see this hope they get something for us backers soon

EDIT : Stupide question, my mistake, sorry

Is the Delta commander not available to everyone?

currently on for backers who have pledged >= 90$ as far as i understood.

The Theta commander is being made available to all backers. The Cosmic Limited Edition is the only package getting the Delta for pre-orders, and for early backers, it's being included at the $90 + level, as mentioned.

In putting the Cosmic edition together, we tried to add some existing things that a number of people had been asking to make available again, along with a few new things, such as the Delta, and the new badge system, which is a new system we'll be talking more about soon, and asking you all how you'd like a system like that used (beyond what we already have planned).. but that's a topic for a different thread.

Hey i was a early backer, and this may be the wrong place. But what if we were looking to grab a T-shirt and not up a tier or something? Because those t-shirts are awsome.

There are other threads for that, however, looking at your account, you already selected at least one of them. They're the same four shirts that were made available already for the $100 + level of early backers.

Semi OT. I am thinking about upgrading enough to get in on the alpha (i am on the 40 or 50 dollar kickstarter tier)
When i log in to the Uber store it says i havent bought anything, and under my account it says i have a purchase with an order number at 0 dollars.

Should i be worried?

No.. I was just talking to one of our UberNet engineers about that.. we're gonna fix that.. that just means you didn't pre-order, but were an early backer.. we realized that it's a very misleading message for early backers

So to be clear for someone like me who is in the $100 backing braket with $120 for the Game loaded USB addition. What we are getting for upgrading to this package would be the Planet naming and the Hard cover copy of the Artbook. Or is the Forum tag going to be only for the Cosmic package.

Im just trying to figure this out because its saying the early backers will be listed in the credits. And im trying to figure out would we also get the Forum badge or does that only come with the Cosmic. Also If I upgraded I would probably loose my Game loaded USB which I really want as its Shaped like a Commander. And as much as I would love to have the Hardcover copy of the artbook I just dont have that much money around right now.

I know that doesn't mean i don't want a second one :3

anyway that is just me being a asshat, don't want to be rude.

I'm happy you rolled it out because it means I can confirm I ordered what I thought I ordered.

Also, 74 day countdown for the Cosmic Unlimited bundle -- interesting. To avoid reading too much into that I would guess that that's the shirt/miniature/other physical products shipping cutoff?

I'd love to get the cosmic edition (printed art-book, wow!) but I can't afford it :cry:

well this wont allow me to upgrade my current tier as a kick starter backer

Reading is fun! :roll:

Looks like it is equivalent to the 150$ tier of KS.
I will not envy cosmic owners since I pledged 95$ on KS.
