I don't believe anyone has received them. I won the contest as well and have not received it. Just wait lol
Ditto on that. I also won, but still haven't seen anything. I just checked in because I was curious. Good to see I'm not the only one still waiting on that key.
lol to all you ppl pissed about it taking so long to receive a key (myself deffinately included) I'm sorry but this won't help matters this is under the beta key in the email
"There may be a delay of up to 48 hours between applying your Beta key to a new or existing account, and access to log in to the Beta game client"
DAAAAAMN! I'll try it out in an hour when i get off work and let you all know if there is a delay or not.
For the life of me, I don't get why so many current players are just so darned desperate to play in the beta.
It's the same game you've been played for years, but with a cash shop. Whee!
Except for the new content, which you will be doing all over again when it actually goes live. Why can't you just wait?
This whole thing is very silly, I hate how betas have become mere marketing gimimcks. At least it's understandable when people who haven't played it sign up. But existing players, I just don't get the appeal.
Haha Kind of harsh but I agree I re subbed when they announced the free to play and will probably stay subbed after it goes f2p but I don't see what the rush in seeing the "bastardization" is. The biggest difference is going to be a cash shop button especially for those staying subbed. Otherwise I suspect those who are subbed will not see much beyond whatever new content there is which I am unsure of because it's really not that important to me. I'm really not against the move to the f2p model it is only an option and I am never going to stand against options but beta testing is supposed to be about more than getting to play the game which makes it work and I play video games for fun not work and they aren't letting people keep what they get in beta (nor making you lose what you already have) so it's no biggie.
but yeah, to call this game Fantastic is like calling Twilight the Godfather of vampire movies....
got my key and I'm downloading now, somewhat wondering if were all starting on a new server without high levels or what's going to happen in that regard. Little worried we may be limmited in content, but I suppose it is Beta... of an already made game.
The key expires, not the beta testing. You have to use the key before then. Jesus guys come on....you try so hard to troll it's amazing. You will reach for the finiest fabric of something floating in the air to shred it to pieces.

Keep your hair on ace, If what you say is the case then I simply made a mistake. Mistakes...the surprising alternative to trolling!
Finally received my beta key after waiting nearly four weeks and having to email Turbine support directly . . . of course the download client kept hanging overnight as I slept and thus awoke to find only 13% downloaded. Maybe I'll get into the game by the go live date!

Not sure I understand you. Everyone in Beta is on the Bullroarer server and you'll have everything from Lvl 1's to 65's. After following a lvl 6 to the area I wanted, my lvl 35 was farming next to a 65 last night.
As far as content, everything from the live game and more is on the Beta server. Only limits are that you'll be looking for bugs (found 1 last night) vice just enjoying the game.
Well, finally finished the install and hit a server connection bug that I can't imagine will get fixed before the go live date . . . perhaps I'm not meant to play this game.

well it's still until 6 august for this.
Yup they have 2500 to send out just from this site. There are probably even more to go out. It will take some time.
Ditto on that. I also won, but still haven't seen anything. I just checked in because I was curious. Good to see I'm not the only one still waiting on that key.
Same as everyone else.
On the bright side: we only have 3 days left to wait!

The most erroneous stories are those we think we know best - and therefore never scrutinize or question.
Yeah I am still waiting but they did say if you don't have it by the 6th of Aug then you need to contact them.
