Yup, you're in beta if you're in Alpha

Would it be all stages of beta or just later ones? I doubt all those 1k+ alpha people will have granted access to the first stage where (supposedly) only very close circle of players will be testing it. Unless the whole policy on beta has changed.

I would assume all beta stages will be accessible by those who were part of the alpha. Logistically, it would just be easier to do so. Alpha also had a limited planned run, then we ended up with a huge number of players and an extra, what, week, week and a half of playtime? If the alpha was any indication, beta is going to be huge.

Well, the alpha was kinda tested with a very close circle of players, wasn't it? I mean world wide a couple of thousand people IS pretty small bunch.

Seems like everyone who wanted a key got one except me. No Christmas giveaway, no SNF giving keys anymore even... sad :(

Relic and THQ are on vacation and there is no active COH2 at the moment. Just be patient, January is gonna kick your ass :)

Makes me wonder if those of us who already had beta keys before getting into alpha can give ours away somehow. Unless there's some sort of tier system with the closed beta and I can get in earlier with the beta key I won, I have no need for it and wouldn't mind handing it out to someone else.

You make a good point. I think many people will have multiple keys now (winning them on a show, going to a convention, pre-ordering)... it would be nice if a player could give away extra keys to friends.

After the snafu with the official forums access, I won't be jumping to make such requests from Lynx, particularly if such a benefit would require any manual work. Let's just see how things go.

Or you could pre-order the game at this point and get January beta access.

Anybody know when the jan access hits? Probably not for a few days minimum since I'm sure the Relic guys are still on vacation.

If the beta offer with pre-order does not expire soon, I'll do that in two weeks, I'm sadly a bit strapped for cash until then.

We are still working on the implementation of the replay section, but we're making progress =) Dont expect it for the Beta though.

Our aim is to get our Replay section live as soon as Relic/THQ allow us to post COH2 replays.

doesn't really matter... if you want in on the beta: support the developers and pre-order. if you want to give keys to your friends so they can try it out: fine, but there'll also be an open beta period later on that they can join.

you can't complain either way.
