Trust SOE to make something simple seem really complex, still have no idea how we get into beta. What is the point of keys if it doesn't get you in? It must 100% get you in but being a former PS member doesn't? I'm inactive but a former PS player but some ppl are active with keys...

Just shud I even bother with keys? Cus I know if I don't it'll come back to bite me later

That's the vibe a lot of peeps are giving out. I'm trying to chill and assume that my vet status will get me in. It would be easier to bear if they'd just give us our keys already though!

You are over thinking it.

Did you subscribe to PS1? If so, don't worry about a Beta key. The keys are meant for everyone else who far outnumber former PS1 players. How do you get in? We'll let you know. Unlike new folks we know who played PS1 so already have their information. Make sure your Station account is updated and you are good to go.

Thanks for being awesome and on top of everything.

Thanks for clearing it up.

Alright thanx, so I don't have to worry.

Dunno why I'm getting so stressed but Planetside means a lot to me.

Thanks RadarX for the confirmation. Don't you (and SOE) understand though that it would be easier on everybody's nerves if you gave the vets their keys now? I don't see why that is so hard - just generate those numbers, no?

pretty sure it isnt that easy because nothing is..

The reasons I would tend to overthink this is the qualifiers that have been used to in previous statements about beta access modify the meaning making those statements ambiguous.

When there is a ranking of "priority" and "among the earliest" and things like that it makes it seem like some ways of accessing beta are better or worse than others.

We're gamers, we want to have the most effective means of getting what we want.

Thank you for clarifying, again. This is easy to get all hyped up about and I/we appreciate your patience with us

I hear ya, but, but, ......

(thanks for doing the crowd control duty btw)

As said, the overthinking is mainly cos almost every statement on the issue contradicts with another

Welcome to how SOE do things?

duomaxwl · 2012-06-05, 04:16 PM

Why would they generate codes? Vets already have Planetside 2 on their account. All they need to do is activate it for us. They don't need to send codes.
