Kinda confused here.

 

I haven't:

Subed to FilePlanet

Pre-ordered Aion

 

Knowing that I've:

Went to FilePlanet and am now in the que to Download the client. I know it starts on The 6th and keys

are given on the 1'st. How do I get the key? Some say you need to pre-order, others you need to

sub to fileplanet and others, hopefully, you just need a free fileplanet account.

 

Enligthen me.

Says right there on FP that on Sept 1 you can grab your key.

You probably need to be a Fileplanet subscriber.

I believe it costs only 99c to become a FilePlanet subscriber for a week, lol.
I've pre-ordered. Hell, I love Aion. :P I'm currently paying by the hour to play the chinese version to pass the time.

If you want to try it out in OB, just subscribe to FilePlanet. Honestly, what's $1 (like 60p in my currency)? Might aswell call that free.

Open Beta means that its for everyone you dont need a key. 6th sept - 13 th.

After that starts the 1 week head start for pre-orderers, who got the keys.

And then for everybody else who purchased the game

if im correct

According to the aiononline.com site, the only accounts that are eligible for open beta keys are:

"Eligible accounts include any previous closed beta participants and those who have preordered or prepurchased Aion."

Although, you may be able to participate by purchasing this code from:

http://www.shatteredcrystal.com/index.php/aion

Technically its' free as they refund the purchase price when aion is officially launched.

Open beta usuallly stands for thats opened for everyone. Thats no open beta if u have to buy the game. They shouldnt have changed it and still call it a closed beta, if thats the case

You know what would help...

 

Posting in the Aion section of the forum.

Or posting on an Aion fansite.

 

This isnt an Aion tech support why would you expect someone here to be able to help you?

You have to have preordered the game to play in open beta - preordering gives you a beta key that allows access to these events. I myself picked up a free preorder at GameStop, although I'm pretty sure that you have to lay down a minimum $5 deposit.

More confused now than ever.

 

Why can't they make it simple.

 

''CLICK HERE FOR AION OPEN BETA, DOWNLOAD THE CLIENT AND GET A KEY EMAILED TO YOU.''

Because running a open beta on your own bandwith would cost a company a absolute fortune.

 

In these days of places that specifically host files etc then its the best means to distibute through them for free whilst that company rakes in a fortune of page impression's with there advertiser's.
