    Edit: Actually I don't know why I retracted my first statement. There's no sourced information of a developer actually saying it, and trying to find it via Cryptic's site, Fileplanet, and Google I can't find any information saying that they will be giving out free keys without requiring you to subscribe to Fileplanet.

     

    From Fileplanet currently:

    "Champions Online Beta

    is for FilePlanet subscribers only"

    Hmm... too bad. I would really like to participate in this beta. If anyone have a key they don't need I would be very grateful for a PM.

    Well it's pretty idiotic still, that a company representitive makes a claim that today it would be free to everyone, while it clearly isn't the case!

    But then again, nothing suprises me from Cryptic anymore.

    That's a funny failure statement, but so have been many Cryptic announcements, so I'm not impressed.

    Free for everyone to join as long as you pre order or pay a FP subscription.

  • AcorniaAcornia Member UncommonPosts: 281

    The down load is free only if you are a paying member of Fileplanet.   Found that out when I tried to download Champions using the free Fileplanet membership.

    Yes, I just downloaded as well. But you still need a Beta key and that you don't get. It still redirects you to the FP subscribers page!

    I just got a free Beta Key from File Planet. They must have just enabled it for free members.

  • CzzarreCzzarre Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 3,742

    Ive heard from several people they got a key with onnly the 'free' accounts and not paying anything.

    Just wondering, whats a subscription to fileplanet cost?

  • mokoleusmokoleus Member Posts: 142

    ya, they opened it to everyone now. so feel free to get your keys, i think you at least need to register though.
