neo6874 Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 So, the beta access is only for those who backed with 110$ or more, right? You can also buy it for $25 as an extra option with anything else. ^ this, or just pay $25 outright to get it, as they fixed the portal such that you can choose to just buy add-ons (beta key, expansion pack key, t-shirts, mouse pad, etc.)
Headbomb Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Question 1): Where do we get our steam keys for the beta? Will they be on our Obsidian account? Or emailed to us? Should we already have them? Question 2): Will us beta testers have access to a bug/ticket tracker? Or can we contact devs directly to have access to such a tracker. I have plenty of experience doing beta testing (and created well-documented reproducible issues), for things like Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, Wasteland 2, and plenty of modding experience on the TES games as well, and I'm pretty sure it would save devs a lot of time if I could enter stuff in the tracker directly rather than have this two-step process where I post a bug on the forums, and then someone has to review it, and enter it themselves in the tracker, etc... Signing NDAs isn't a problem if that needs to be there.

Silent Winter Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 From your name I would guess you are looking forward to any snow or ice tile sets PoE might have to offer? Oh, and it isn't too late to get the beta Silent Winter!! (at least, not the last I checked) It's not want of playing - it's want of time and negotiable currency I'm working every day at the minute and will be for the next month so I'll have to get by vicariousy through the videos - still, I'll have the new-game smell come December when I'll have time to enjoy it As for my name - it's an (artistic license) translation of my Chinese name, given to me by my first lot of students when I came over here. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ *Casts Nature's Terror* , *Casts Firebug* , *Casts Rot-Skulls* , *Casts Garden of Life* *Spirit-shifts to cat form*

IndiraLightfoot Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Did someone say "Patience"? 2 *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" ***
OnAPaleHorse Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 18th 2015, didn't you hear? Have patience, a few more hours probably. Wouldn't that be the ultimate punch in the stomach? Anyway I'm trying to hold off on drinking too much coffee because I'm already freaking out a little. Wanting to play SO bad....but I'm sure I'm the only one. The rest of you just mildly want to play, kind of take it or leave it....but me, I REALLY WANT TO START DOWNLOADING THIS BEAST. Give me beta! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme! To whoever is supposed to open the OE offices this morning: don't get dressed, wear your jammies to the garage, get in your 1987 Ford Escort, exceed the speed limit to the HQ, don't bother turning the lights on, go directly to your computer thing-ama-jig, flip the switch!!! Green light! Go go go! But seriously, much enthusiasm. Do you know how hard it was to sleep last night? In my feverish imagination I thought everyone was like playing already at 4 a.m. 2
Posbi Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Sooooo... it's the 18th. 18th 2015, didn't you hear? Have patience, a few more hours probably. I'm out in the boonies with a lousy connection (effectively DSL 2000^^). And I'd rather get the Beta downloaded and looked at today.
Michael_Galt Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 So, how will I get my access code? I paid for the $110 digital only tier, and the beta code is supposed to come with that. I just checked my Pillars of Eternity account, and see nada. Do I have to go to Steam? Will I get it in an email?

Logos Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 It's gotten to the point where I can't even play other games while I wait.

talharbash Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Something tells me this won't be a smooth beta release
Elmithian Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 I couldn't agree more with ye folk. It is really difficult to wait. For the beta to be released. :D 2 Finding truth is a turn,that a tester should apply with a punand report when it crashes his funTherein there is no gain,but to aid those in pain,for the helpful need to bethose who the truth will see ------- Testing is a concept of trustTrust between the big and the smallTrust that needs to be strong as a wallOtherwise lies will turn it to rustHear me thee big o' manBelieve in the words I speakAnd I will do my best for the communityTo experience the best of your complexity Written by: - Elmithian (me)
