Crisis averted. I wasn't very worried, I just wish they had worded it better from the get go.

just saw this. Thought it would clear up some things.

Edit: =P too late

Ah well, as my only history of playing Planetside 1 is playing the beta and playing during the free year thingie, I probably won't be in the beta

Trying to actually enter one of those facebook keys seem impossible..

YOU WEREN'T VERY WORRIED? YOU WEREN'T VERY WORRIED?! WHY YOU ARE NO TRUE PLANETSIDE FAN! SOME OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT GETTING INTO A TESTING PHASE FOR A GAME THAT HAS BEEN RUMORED ABOUT FOR YEARS AND YEARS!

But then I'm no true planetside fan either. Ohwell.

It was also mentioned by a Dev quoting you that we're special enough for the short bus to school.

Douse the flames, and lower the pitchforks

I think you have misunderstood. Or the 'fb guy' has misunderstood.

If it doesn't make sense it's not always because we're being randomly screwed over. Sometimes it doesn't make sense because someone somewhere got something mixed up.

These keys are 99.99% likely to be the same as the ones already handed out. Don't let the fear of what-if cloud your judgement

EDIT: and all resolved in the time it took me to type this post too heh

Alright, cool!

One thing, I have subscribed to Planetside 1, Planetside 2 shows on my SOE account as inactive, but some have Planetside 2 as ''closed'' on their account (who also subscribed to PS1, but also dont have a code) Does that matter? (maybe I am looking into things too much, but that just happens to me when I get really hyped about a game

)

Sorry for panicking everyone, but the guy on twitter earlier said "These get you in!" when asked how good of keys they were...

i dont think the facebook is any different but if the guy who said he got a fb key would like to post so we can compare.

FYI i have orignal PS / aftershock registered on my account and have entered the PC Gamer key. Mine says active as well

Don't think the active / inactive is tied to PS1 status.

Just saying

So I just revived my old account from 2004 when I played Planetside.

I changed my email to the current one I have.

So I should get a beta, right?

Also I use the same email for another SOE station account, can this cause problems?

Mine is inactive... damn I guess I didn't get in the first wave.

Anderz · 2012-06-05, 03:34 PM

If anyone has a spare beta key, I'd be very appreciative.
Maybe as a thank you from someone who has used my signatures?

(I'm a terrible person, I know....)

HEISTT · 2012-06-05, 03:34 PM

Those keys are literally gone within 5 seconds. I guess I'll stop this nonsense and ask one of the UK guys here to get me a key from the UK mag after I paid the person his expenses through paypal...
