As a clan owner, and server operator of current RO2 server, you'd think a beta key would be at least available for testing without having to sit and hover over a website waiting for keys that go so fast that its almost impossible to activate in time to get one. I'll wait for an open beta, I guess, but as the days go by, other games will be tested and tried, and hope RS will be worth the wait, a lot of impatient members of my clan have been wanting to play this, cant hold them off forever.

There were a few here:

and in the ideas and suggestions-forum, but they're all gone now I think. Might still be some hiding in other forums though, I haven't checked

Between you and me (and most savvy admins), I do too. I'd love to see a lot of streaming admins get into the game. :IS2:
As someone who pre-ordered the game (RO2) it would be nice to get a Key since I have been through the whole process of this game thus far.
I know this will fall upon deaf ears... but
I too would like a key and here are the reasons why I htink I may qualify.
1) Played orignal Mod since 2.6? (I think) (was it 2.62, the last INF version before Tanks and Barashka arrived??)
2) Beta tested Ostfront with all the DBDUK guys (lo fuds!! ) on our own beta server.
3) Beta tested HoS.
4) if people realy are intrested then, which I doubt..
-----about 1000 hours in mod/Osfront, steam says 474 but they only started counting long after it was released.
-----512 in Hos.
5) I work in a AGILE enviroment and testing is a part of my RnRs as Deployment Mgr.
6) I have bayoneted Ramm
Cheers

The last one alone should be enough to give you a key.
It would have been nice to have it as an inB4reset reward (nobody would have questioned that) or maybe for any RO2 owners with 200+ hrs of playing. I'm afraid the way they've gone about handing out keys is leaving a bad taste in many dedicated fans' mouths...

Once again, that would have resulted in too many bodies for this phase of testing. It would have been counter productive and less useful to us.
The vast majority of keys went to our friends and family beta testers who have been with us for years. We ask those who provide us with detailed bug reports and constructive feedback in our forums to join it when we find we need more.
For the remaining keys we had allocated to this phase we wanted a mixture of both older and newer players (so we could watch how both crowds reacted). The most fair way to gather this was via random key handouts. And the vast majority of those random handouts were targeted at locations with RO 2 owners (our forums and at the Official Game Group).
But what about group A, B, C or D? with 10s or 100s of thousands of people? Why didn't they get keys? Because they are groups with 10s and 100s of thousands of people. This test is strictly limited so we can make it as much of a controlled environment as possible.
The reaction among many of your dedicated fans is frustration and annoyance, I'm afraid. I hope this doesn't dampen enthusiasm for RS.
Cheers,

Edit: It would have been helpful if what you just posted was in the first post of this thread. It would have saved some aggravation for us fans.
