It just means you aren't in yet, not 'no chance at all'. The beta hasn't even begun yet, calm down.

I imagine the active people (such as myself) are people who have redeemed priority access keys.

So, my "Inactive" means I have no chance at all despite signing up and being a prior subscriber?
Inactive simply means they haven't flipped the switch on your account. Active means you're already in or they are preparing to let you in soon, from what I understand. If you're a prior subscriber you will get in soon.

They are staggering the people they let in over time to keep from overloading the download servers I bet.

Checked mine. Says Inactive. Guess that means that the people without priority access keys have to wait even more. :(

In Sweden, digital electronics is considered unteachable. That is why you are not being taught about it.
Most attempts of sesquipedalian loquaciousness on the internet will most likely end up in egregious delusions of eloquence. Finagle's law commands it!

People who entered priority beta keys will have it say active regardless of whether they can play yet or not. Everyone else will not until the switch is flipped on their account. An easy way to check if your in is to go here www.planetside2.com/download . Click the download button and sign into your account. If it lets you download it then congratulations, your in the beta.

Those lucky dwarves, despite the risk of being stabbed, shots, poisoned, eaten, mauled, enslaved, eviscerated or involved in accidents... at least they don’t have to worry about immediate dangers like the heat death of the universe.

Mine has said 'active' for weeks (because I got a twitter key on something like the second or third day they started giving out twitter keys). It doesn't mean I'm getting in this week or even next week.

Mine says active, yet I can't download. I guess I'll have to wait.

i have the feeling people who registered on the ps2 web for beta months ago actually get in last, because of all the "priority keys" they have thrown out over twitter and magazines etc...

DF doesn't mold players into its image - DF merely selects those who were always ready for DF.

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

i suspect they are doing the beta key giveaway to also try to count up just how many people will want to play at launch to prepare the servers and bandwidth so it doesn't 404 when trying to play the game.

There was also an announcement about how the servers would only be up during part of the day each day for a while.

Happy with that info, but are you allowed to tell us that?

My Sony account is located in the US somehow, and I can't change it. Talking to their support they want to know everything about me before they "can switch it". No effing way, Sony. Beefing up your SOE security by storing more personal information is not how it works. I hope they won't force me to play on US servers because of this :(

I didn't read it, so I don't know what you're allowed and not allowed to tell us :)
But if you are allowed to tell us something, How Is It? Is it any fun/good and if not how far is it from being fun?
