Funktion JCB Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Well, I have a different problem: my name is in the Gold Backer section of the game, and the strategy guide (I still haven't looked for the memorial in-game stone), and rather unbelievably, my name is wrong everywhere, and it's not even the same typos in the different places. It's very disappointing. Wasn't there any quality control? Did the person responsible for proofreading the gold backer credits on the strategy guide really think that "Joío" is my first name? Worse, this probably means my physical rewards will come with my name wrong. My kickstarter profile has my correct name. My survey has my correct name. Why in the hell did this happen?

That's quite a bummer dude
Elerond Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 well as supposed, my name isn't in the credits, Do I have to provide my fullname in somewhere? Did you back game on level that had name in credits reward (Special Thanks in-game credits. It was included in $100+ reward levels [you also should then have silver VIP, Gold, or Watcher forum badge])

They messed up the coding. Special characters seem to have been lost. Sucks to have a non-English name...

It seems that some where in their copy paste process, non-ascii character in your name has changed to numeric character reference of it. And nobody has noticed it as they have used automated system which results nobody has probably checked thoroughly. You have my sympathies.
AlperTheCaglar Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Same here, no name in credits, though I did fill it out only a couple of months ago and not in August
snow0815 Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Add me to the growing "missing from credits" list. Typos? Aliens. Errors? Aliens!
Xarlith Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 @ all bronze badge backers, Only people with VIP and Gold badge are included in the credits. Thats why you can't find your name.
PirroEpirote Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Same here, no name. I could have sworn I had filled the survey, but apparently not - I logged in a couple of days ago and it was open. I wish I could say I don't mind, but actually I'm rather sad about this. Specially since printed material will probably never have my name. Guess my faltering self-steem needed this small recognition... For the next Kickstarter, I would recommend Obsidian: Having KS usernames appear as a default on credits for appropriate reward levels. Having a survey to allow for name changes. Sending a message to the KS email address notifying affected backers of the survey's existence and deadline. 1
Elerond Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Sending a message to the KS email address notifying affected backers of the survey's existence and deadline. They did this, although they did it as form of Kickstarter update where they reminded people to fill their surveys.

They did this, although they did it as form of Kickstarter update where they reminded people to fill their surveys. I understand. Although I meant a "push" type email outside of the regular backer updates, so that it was unmissable. Maybe they did that too and I don't remember it - my memory's not so good these days.
metashurick Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 I can't find mine either... And I'm pretty sure I filled the survey on the same or the next day that it was announced. My Kickstarter pledge was $120, so I should have been there.

They did this, although they did it as form of Kickstarter update where they reminded people to fill their surveys. Major bummer Even though I read most of them I guess I must've filled out the survey late since my name is quite obviously missing. Sending out a timely reminder by email certainly would have been nice. Oh well, at least we made this awesome game happen Edited March 28, 2015 by marelooke 1
JayDGee Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Wished I could have backed higher at the time. Edited March 29, 2015 by JayDGee None of this is really happening. There is a man. With a typewriter. This is all part of his crazy imagination.
Moeffz Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Well, I have a different problem: my name is in the Gold Backer section of the game, and the strategy guide (I still haven't looked for the memorial in-game stone), and rather unbelievably, my name is wrong everywhere, and it's not even the same typos in the different places.

I am affected by the same issue. It does not get into my head how this could happen with such a wonderful piece of work. It seems they excluded the backer credits from QA (
JibrilPL Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Same thing happened here. Just spent the last 10 minutes scouring the credits looking for my name - and every possible nickname that I have may used both here and on Kickstarter.
Node Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) For some reason my order wasn't processed, I just checked and now it asked me to complete the survey. am I completely screwed about getting my name in the credits and memorial. i read the digital strategy guide, my name isn't there Edited March 30, 2015 by Node
Longknife Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Hi Chris, You completed your survey too late for us to make the initial game cutoff, but we'll nab it up in a future patch. Thanks! Darren How do I get my name in the credits too Do I buy you a beer "The Courier was the worst of all of them. The worst by far. When he died the first time, he must have met the devil, and then killed him." Is your mom hot? It may explain why guys were following her ?
Demosthenes928 Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 How do I get my name in the credits too Do I buy you a beer You needed to have backed at the $100 tier or higher.
Node Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) How do I get my name in the credits too Do I buy you a beer You needed to have backed at the $100 tier or higher. I did, but I glimpsed over the update on filling out the survey - I thought the money I spent on the kickstarter site was enough. These days, when some kickstarter projects have over 100 emails (War for the Underworld is almost at 190) it is easy to glimpse over those emails. I hate myself, right now Edited March 30, 2015 by Node
stratus Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) So my question is this. I backed for $85 on kickstarter but then bumped it up to $130 through the backer portal. Should I get my name in the credits? Additionally, shouldnt I have at least the K badge? Edited March 30, 2015 by stratus
Buu Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Was wondering why my name wasn't there, too. I was disappointed, since I think I did it on the first day.

Should I get my name in the credits? Additionally, shouldnt I have at least the K badge? you would have thought the total pledge amount would have accounted for something, I also pledged at $80 and got two expansion and the digital novel (this was before it was added by default) so yeah, I spent over $100, its a pity that didn't qualify to get my name in the credits.
