    Other Beta participants - Information to be revealed
    • PAX / GenCon / Keys from game conventions and events.
    • Community Beta key giveaways through Facebook and Twitter.
    • Promotional Beta keys on partner sites.

    And more!

    I have a question too.
    Will these key get in for any close beta or are they useless now? For if launch is said to be early 2013, and those who paid will get extra days before open beta, and beta weekend 3 is on March 22 - how can you have any close beta before open beta after that?

    Something is fishy there.

    "Early 2013" could mean 06/30/2013. Doesn't say 1st quarter 2013.

BUT WAIT its buy to Beta .. i am kinda let down by this supposed free to play game

    I'm okay with the "buy to beta" model, especially since there are a lot of non-purchasable ways to get in too. But the guardian and founders packs are giving a huge influx of cash, which they can't otherwise secure with "lifetime subscriptions". City of Heroes didn't need the initial influx (apparently, since lifetime subs were never offered), but I know it can be very helpful to a new MMO to have a rush of capital right before launch.

    It also helps that in any F2P model, the game company is going to look for people who are willing to spend money. Yeah they're putting the game out there for free hoping that a lot of people will buy a lot of little things, but they also want to appeal to the people who are willing to drop a lot of money at once. I guess it's a balancing act, and I don't know if I could necessarily get it right myself.

    Uhm . . . does no one read the main post, FAQs and other 50,000 postings and resources all over the site and forum regarding the server times and dates? Even the first post of this thread has your answers.

    Obvious answer is obvious, but apparently not obvious enough, so let me help you out. People do not want to look things up not matter quick and easy it is, they want other people to do things for them. So simple answer, .... No, they cannot.

    Darkstorn is correct. Lots of people these days even duplicate multiple posts, even that single post alrdy excist. I know this well on a another forum of coding, that you can find there. But the search button for them doesnt really excist.

    I got into Beta week end #2 by simply having registered on the forums. I had not yet purchased the founders pack. After trying out the game however I was encouraged enough to buy it. SO it really is not "Buy to Beta", its the luck of the draw. Also the fact that they guaranty beta access on the beta week ends if you purchase is a plus.

    Correct. As indicated in the original post (and elsewhere), the Beta weekends listed are/were the only times when you will be able to play - the final Beta weekend being next week, 22nd-24th March.

    If this link
    https://my.perfectworld.com/nw/redeemkey

    says you have access to Beta weekend 3 then yes. If it only says beta weekend 2, then I dont think you can. But you can always log in and try against fate!
