Hey guys can I get into alpha right now?


Pathfinder Online


I have been watching the game for quite some time. I am a pathfinder DM and a long time mmo tester(before WoW). I am looking to get in and test the game and give feedback. Any chance there is an extra alpha key I can use? Are there friend/extra keys? Also if I purchase the $50 package or $35 fee do I get into alpha now?

Thanks!


Are the keys yes, do I have one to give you nay all out.

There's a patch going out today should give the 50 dollar package and the 100 dollar package your alpha invite.

The 50 dollar package starts 1 month behind the 100 dollar package when EE starts on the 25th. The 100 dollar package also has more bells and whistles+ more game time.

You can get into Alpha now - there are people with keys who will likely read this (not me, I passed mine out already - no point in saving them). Simply buying into EE at the $50 (or $100) level might not get you into Alpha quicker.

The widespread Alpha invites will go out over a few days to avoid a hit on the servers as 5000 people try to download the 1gig client, so may not hit you immediately.

(I wonder how much 5 terrabytes of bandwidth spread over three days will cost GW?)


Ok so I can either get an alpha invite from someone and that gives me access now? Or I can pay for access and that starts on the 25th? Sorry kind of confusing setup. If you guys know anyone that has an invite my email is forresterdesigns@gmail.com. Do you have to pay a monthly fee as well?

Thanks!

You happen to've arrived right at a transition-point, so things look a bit odd, calendar-wise.

2 ways to play Alpha "now" (or soon). An alpha invite is immediate, no cost, no purchase. If you buy one of the packages on Goblinworks right now or were a Kickstarter backer at a level that include Early Enrollment option, then all of them will be receiving staggered alpha entry over next few days as server stress test. Your alpha experience would terminate at start of Early Enrollment, currently scheduled for Sept 25, though GW reserves right to delay that if feel warranted, in which case alpha would continue.

I can't do it now, but if you haven't gotten one elsewhere, then I could probably get you an invite either tonight or at worst tomorrow. I'll recheck this thread, please post if you do get an invite.

Welcome and goodluck!

Thanks for the info, I get it now. Alpha ends at EE. Yea that would be great I would love to check it out asap. Will there be keys for EE or is that strictly paid?

Goblin Squad Member

EE is paid. Couple options available on GW site, as mentioned above.

Invite sent to email above. You should get instructions from Goblinworks soon.

Please note that right now, as I type this, several people have reported problems connecting to the server. If your invitation arrives but you can't connect, try back in a little while.

Does anyone happen to have an extra invite to Alpha? I have EE, but would certainly like to get a look and feel for it. Love the community so far. Most here are helpful and positive. I really like the concept of the crowd forging Alpha/Beta.

Hey man, just wanted to say I really appreciate it. Going out of your way to do that is a great gesture. What is your in game name?

Goblin Squad Member

Your welcome. Paying it forward, Dazyk did the same for me here. I'm Daeglin in game as well. See you around the River Kingdoms :)
