Early days mate, mine only took 30hrs to arrive. When I get home I suppose I will have to go through the song and dance routine to activate.

I hope the game is worth it after all this as I did sorta pre-order it on a whim.

Does anyone know if we are tied to our beta accounts come release? I don't know how they're processing the emails so I might drop another key on this with an alternative address, only I don't want to use that email address for my release account.

They reckon that they are manually adding people to the database, that is gunna take a while.

Next thing you know you will be making one of those posts about killing and decapitating the devs.

Lol would be very ironic if there was an Irish mob heading to the HQ in Dublin.

Duskcrawler · 8 Sep 2008 at 17:19

I managed to register my beta key to my account but I get "validation failed" when I run the game.

Anyone else having this?

They'll email you to tell you if your validation worked or failed.

wozzizname · 8 Sep 2008 at 17:25

Got my email last night, but can't validate my account as I keep getting some message about the authentication server being 'momentarily unavailable' lol - been getting that message all day, so some peoples definition of 'momentarily' is very different to mine....

surely they arent so incompetant that they cant even get someone to write a quick script that can input all the data for them :S

You'd be surprised. Seems like most of us are waiting on emails now...

Tombstone · 8 Sep 2008 at 17:38

As a lot of people seem to be a little confused over this I'm going to post up some quick Q&As. If you have other questions then please post them below and I'll try to answer them, please don't post anything else other than questions in this thread so that it's easy to find the important info.

Q: I can't log into the site, I get the 'Authentication servers are offline message'
A: Yes, you do not need to login to the site to use this page. Simply go to here and fill in your details.

Q: Who can use that page?
A: Anyone who already has a beta centre account - this means anyone who created an account to apply for the closed beta or to recieve the newsletter even if they didn't get a closed beta invite. In addition, anyone who created an account on our site yesterday and has received a confirmation email.

Q: I don't have an account yet, when will I be able to use my key?
A: We are bringing a new account centre online, at the moment we have no ETA for this but we will keep you informed via the news.

Q: I put my details in, now what?
A: All you need to do now is to wait for an email from us. This email will either confirm that your validation is complete (in which case you can log in and play) or that there was a problem with your details (in which case you need to go back and resubmit your information).

Q: Why are you doing it this way?
A: To reduce the load on the database server we have an asynchronous system. What this means is that when you put your details in, the system will store it, another system will then check it and confirm the details to you. This means the whole system is much smoother.

How long do emails take to arrive from the system?
A: This will vary but should be within an hour. Make sure you check your junk folders and spam filters as well as adding [email protected] to your whitelists.

Think I entered the key around 3.30, no email yet. Anyone in the same boat?

N19h7m4r3 · 8 Sep 2008 at 17:59

Lots in the same boat I reckon.
