Well i got my free key yesterday from Massively and got in the 1st phase from it. Those were handed out to me in my email, so I would of hoped they worked for the 1st phase also.
1. CB1 is VERY limited in ammount of players it will have.
2. Closed Beta Keys are not useless. They allow you to get in into one of the phases eventually.
3. Those who did not get into CB1 will most likely get into CB2, which starts 4 weeks from now.
Basically the whole closed beta is separated into phases. In each phase certain amount of additional players FROM THOSE WHO HAVE THE KEYS, is accepted into the game. This has been a public knowledge for at least two months already.
Some forum posts for this cunning way to publicize a game.

Only certain people can play in phase 1. Which, I feel is bullsht. cb is cb, shouldn't be any draw out of a hat, game players. If theyre trying to give people chances to play through phases, then theyre going to end up having multiple. And if this is the way they were going to do it, then it should be posted point blank that not everyone will be able to enter.

Obviously no one has been able to log on yet, they must still be working on it. Just stay patient and stop posting every couple minutes asking why you haven't been accepted into beta testing when you got a key. It will be up eventually...

It says I have an incorrect ID, I entered it about 50 times and it says the same thing each time. But I see a lot of people are having this problem. I guess this is the first bug that has to be fixed, hopefully PW does something soon.
The story is still continuing. I do not have a friend who has gone and played the phase1.
As we anticipated, Forsaken World has attracted many players and we will be rolling out closed beta in several phases.
Unfortunately, you were not selected to enter this first phase of closed beta. Rest assure that your redeemed key will give you access to enter one of several Forsaken World closed beta phases and we will notify you when your time comes!
Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm. Be sure to stay tuned to all the latest news by checking out the official Forsaken World website!

Perfect World International let some idiots manage the role out of Forsaken. They issued keys through many review sites, told customers that they were accepted into the closed beta, encouraged customers to download (many gigabytes and hours) the game and then didn't let them play. Their forum indicates many unhappy people. This policy worked very well for getting people excited about the game, but in the end, disappointed many.
Well the key I got off of Massively does work and I can play the beta now. So in the email they gave me the friend keys so I can play with them (and I would think would be good for the 1st beta). Maybe if you grabbed one of these keys say if it worked or not.

Friend keys do not guarantee CB1 or CB2 phase testing.

Adventurers wear fancy pants!!!
1st phase random drawing was done days ago so from what I read in the forums the beta keys should get whomever into phase 2 at some point.

Don't spread misinformation.
For starters:
1. CB1 is VERY limited in ammount of players it will have.
2. Closed Beta Keys are not useless. They allow you to get in into one of the phases eventually.
3. Those who did not get into CB1 will most likely get into CB2, which starts 4 weeks from now.

The geniuses at PWI gave Massively 500 usable keys. Not as many for their paying customers.
