Webslinger Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) My friend didn't get his Steam key. Under Products, it says "No products available... yet!"

myster_dunefan Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) This is webslinger's friend with the missing key. I don't have anything showing under Products except "Pillars of Eternity: Backer Beta" Edited March 26, 2015 by Nick Chen 1
Darren Monahan Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Hi Nick, please refresh and give it a shot - it should be listed there for you now. It just needed to be converted to the newer Paradox SKU type to appear. Thanks and apologies. 2 OBSIDIAN ORDER OF ETERNITY - Officially sponsored most generously by Pierre and SD!
HozzM Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Darren while you are here can you comment on when the KS physical goods shipped to backers, or if they have yet? What carrier was used and can we expect tracking info on the backer portal at some point?
Myrten Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I don't get how tier mappings work, I got two hero edition keys despite my pledge (post-kickstarter) being for $132Hi Myrten, the type of key you get is based on which tier you purchased, not how much money you put in if that makes sense. You can review this by visiting your Orders tab on your Account Profile. Click on the order(s) you have there, and there's a "What does this include?" link under the tier choice you made that will show you what comes with the tier you chose, as well as list any addons you picked up. My order looks like this: I understand your reasoning, but I must say this whole thing is a bit confusing in general BTW is strategy guide in pdf or website format? (It would also be very cool if it could be release early

guardious Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 So, ppl is angry because they dont have a key that is useless right now, i mean, yeah sure, you can install the game with that now, but you can't play until 26, so why this all this rage? People is insane... Some people with slow connections would want to start pre-loading now. Especially if the alternative is them going to sleep and starting pre-loading in 8 hours. That's pretty much it I think... Pretty much this, I NEVER posted here till now, I have waited , watched and more, it would be nice to have it loaded like reg purchases. Kinda sucks but I will live sure.

Moriendor Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Hi guys, I don't get it. I pledged at the $165 tier during the Kickstarter campaign: And now on my backer portal I have two games or editions of the game and was able to generate a Steam key for both... ^ HUH??? So... what I did so far is I only registered the Royal Edition on Steam since that seems to be the higher tier, right? But... why do I also have a key for a Hero Edition? Should I register that key on Steam as well? If so is it "safe" or will my already registered Royal Edition get downgraded to a Hero Edition? What's up with having these several versions? Please advise... thanks! Edited March 26, 2015 by Moriendor
Barras Galago Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I preloaded my hero edition copy and I keep getting an error for the last 2% on the steam it says that it is still encrypted i assume its still doing that foor the last 2% cause it actually releases tmw but I just want to make sure. Anyone else have this problem?

Moriendor Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Ah, thanks, I think I *do* get it now. Seems like this is the extra copy from the $80 tier isn't it? Guess I should have checked the previous tiers before asking. Sorry for the fuss .

What Obs did is try to map what your tier gave with what is included with the different versions. With your tier, the closest they could come is with a Royal Edition and a Hero Edition. There may also be a couple things not included in those two combined that you'll have to grab from the backer portal as well.
yaggaz Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Just to be sure. I just generated a Steam Code. The Retail Pack will come with a box that has a different copy of the game, yes? One that can be DRM free. I keep asking this question, to which I never get an answer.

The physical backer versions come with a DRM-free unprotected, no distribution platform version of the game. It's the game fresh off of our internal servers with no additives or preservatives. Not to be confused with the retail versions you can buy in a store - those are Steam copies, but we're not sending those to backers. 2 OBSIDIAN ORDER OF ETERNITY - Officially sponsored most generously by Pierre and SD!
Katarack21 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 There's a thread over in the widgets forum you might want to check out, too. There's conflicting information about exactly what the system requirements are, etc.

I was trying to delete that post AFTER I found your answer AFTER posting that, after scrolling through the threads. Note to self: Read thread to end before posting. Thank you. Twice!

Katarack21 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Wow! Thank you for all the updates over there. I don't know about anybody else, but you totally fixed my concern (re: my Core 2 Duo running the game). Thank you much.
Webslinger Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 If someone upgrades his or her Kickstarter Hero edition to the Royal edition via Steam, will he or she lose out on the Kickstarter only in-game achievement and item? And will the new Steam game description indicate that the game is now not a Kickstarter edition?
Raeldion Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) I'm a bit late to the party it seems, but I'm a bit confused regarding the keys that you get with certain tiers: the 165$ tier included two keys, are they supposed to be an hero edition and a royal one or should they both be a royal one? Thanks in advance for your help! Edited April 2, 2015 by Raeldion
