I dug up my old account on SOE and Planetside is bound to it.

Here's the pic: http://i.imgur.com/ZQYmr.jpg

Does this mean i'm included in the veterans and i wont have to refresh like crazy on the Planetside 2 facebook page in hunt for a beta key?

Also, on my station account in the "Game Pass Info" it says on planetside 2:

"Planetside 2 Account: Inactive"
"Planetside 2 Unlimited Play"

What does this mean exactly?

ARE YOU A FORMER PLANETSIDE PLAYER?
DID YOU BUY PCGAMER?
"Yes" to either of those means YOU'RE SAFE AND CAN CEASE TO CARE ABOUT KEY GIVEAWAYS

It's like this for every beta, and I love it. The forums always suddenly flood after the anouncement, then beta keys, then "Did I get in? Did you get in? Let's grab pitchforks and torches and mob the devs!" Then everyone panics when they don't know what's going on every second of the day.

*Sigh* Feels like home.

This thread made my eyes hurt and at one point the walls in my office shimmer.

It was fun trying to get a key for a couple of hours until they spoiled it by letting us know it won't get us in any quicker

I always understood that the magazine codes would get in at the same rate as veteran players, so I gave my PCGamer code to a friend. I'm certainly not above trying to get in as early as possible though

Okay good :P

Just wanted to be sure, you never know.. i might have been the exception, maybe you had to have a Planetside 1 account registered on release day, i dont know. Wanted to be sure.

I haven't read alot of news about Planetside 2 lately, when will the beta begin, do you reckon?

This is a horrible idea.

Why?

Because it started while a lot of people were sleeping/at work.

Not only that, but I haven't found anyone who will just give me their damn extra key.
My friend is forcing me to send him a $10 money order to get it when he bought 6 extra PC Gamer mags.

Who cares. There was only 10-15 keys each time and they went in seconds.

.....why did I choose today to sleep in...OH the humanity

It's funny reading some of the comments.

Is anyone here actually trying to enter one of those newly released keys in? What a waste of time.

Is this for current subscribers or anyone who was at one time subscribed? If its for anyone what steps do I need to take to get my key, or have the vet keys not been released yet? Just a little clearificaton please? I don't wanna miss out!

I dont think the vets have anything to worry about.

Was not fun when I realized that I could not even remember my original accounts name.

Luckily I eventually figured it out.

I just want my gauss rifle back
