    Same guys looking for a spare key if anyone is kind enough to part with one. Thank you very much!

    Thanks to the Admin who checked the keys thing. It was just too much of a coincidence that the keys went ran out fast, and they seemed to be posted on EBay just as fast.

    Good luck to all those that got a key! Enjoy the game!

    Yeah, it's a shame. Seeing keys for sale on websites all over the places, including Ebay and Amazon. 
    Dang botters.

    Were the next batch of keys just added to this post. I have been refreshing the main page all last night and this morning. The last Admin post stated that they would go out in 45 minutes. That was last night. Did I miss the second batch too? I totally thought that it would be a new post. Ugh..... :-(

    Why would anyone buy into a closed beta for more money than the actual game costs when:

    1.  There will only be 2 very short closed betas (because the game is in fact, done);
    2.  The game launches first quarter next year (probably as early as February).

    I never understood why people want to play a game in what is essentially a fishbowl environment... the true game environment only reveals itself when it officially goes live to the masses.  Remember ArcheAge... people loved the fishbowl... hated the actual game... spent a small fortune to play a game for a very limited time.

    The game costs $30-$100, keys typically go for $10. What are you talking about?

    What are you talking about... I merely noted that paying for a *package* now just to get into a CBT is silly.  This thread may be asking about keys... but they've mentioned the pre-order packages herein which includes CBT access.

    Wait until February and $30 gets you the actual game (bumps, bruises, and wrinkles revealed).

    Kind of sad that even though I am in CB1, I won't be able to play it due to finals :(

    I just signed up at the Black Desert website around 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I got a beta key from them. So if you can't get it here, they are sending out invites also (and I won't put money into an alpha package ever again, thanks Archeage..)
  • IkedaIkeda Member RarePosts: 2,751
    Just wanted to say thanks to Admin and everyone else.  It's great to hear that you listened to feedback, got more keys, and then distributed them!  I only hope people who got them use them.  

    Gaming companies track that kinda thing.

    Got a key but I realized that I am from Asia. Is there an IP Block? I wouldn't want to waste my time downloading the game just to find out that I am blocked later on. And yes, I haven't used my key yet.

    Yup, there's an IP block.

    Why pay for a key when you can wait for an open beta to try the game?  Plus it will be a more finalized version.  What's the hurry?

    There will be no open beta.

    I believe they have already stated that there will not be an open beta.

      Do you plan on having any open-test phases (open beta) for Black Desert Online?
      There will be no open beta for Black Desert Online.
