How do you get the code for the closed alpha? Is it going to be sent to your email via Warner bros games account if signed up?
@PlayStationGamer3919 I'm sure that's how it works.
I just signed up through my WBGames email address/account.
@GoodGame ok, just wanted to make sure. I made an Warner bros game account and signed up for the closed beta. Hopefully the code is sent via email
@PlayStationGamer3919 There's an open beta in July anyway. So if we don't get the closed beta, It's not too long to wait
@GoodGame if I don’t get to join this week. I’ll be happy to wait till July for open beta. The game is looking like the best smash clone for PlayStation consoles to date
Did they already sent the codes? Haven't got one. God I hope I can get in.
@RevGaming Not yet. If we get them, they will probebly send us them tomorrow or Thursday
Registered across about 5 different accounts and had nothing yet :/
@Jacko11 thats smart but I'll stick to one account, I can wait til July
I've signed up the game looks like fun.
@Jacko11 You can invite up to three friends, so we might be able to find someone else with a code.
Edit: Check and see if you got it.
@GoodGame
Thought they said on the 17th
@RevGaming They should have sent it by now, if you don't have it bad luck.
I would have sent you a code if I had gotten in, but alas, I also wasn't picked.
@Snatcher
Y do they do me like that. I have always register for one and never get one.
@RevGaming I only got into the first one, missed all the other sadly, never sent me anything ):
There is still a shot if some one on this site gets it.
And wile I'm not 100% sure if this is fact, I heard they will still send out codes in waves during the alphas test period, so there is till a chance I think.
@Snatcher
Where is this studio located? Imma about to drive (fly) there.
@RevGaming Los Angeles (: LOL.
@Snatcher
Oh shiiiit.
Need RPG7s
@RevGaming LOL. Here is to hope we get in!
@Snatcher Sadly I never got an email, so will be waiting for the open beta.
@KidBoruto Dang, this sucks LOL.
@RevGaming @KidBoruto Not to get your guys hopes up, because i'm not sure, but since I did get into one of these before, I might get a Email for it tomorrow, but i'm not sure, because they said steam users should get a Email for it tomorrow, but others said they got a Email on the 12th, so if I get in, and can invite you guys, I will.
@Snatcher I only game on my PS5 and Switch, is that invite only useful if you play the closed beta on Steam?
@KidBoruto I need to look into it more but I think you can pick your own device.
@Snatcher if you do get to invite friends you should inv me to play Not saying you have to ofc i just really was looking forward to it.
I didn't get a code. Me sad;(. Guess it will be the usual GT7 for me this weekend.
@Snatcher
Thanks, but I give up. I guess I'll play in July.
And I only play on PS5, even though my laptop could run, I just don't like playing on it.
@Snatcher yo if you get the game mind if you could give the code to me
@Snatcher If you only have a limited amount of codes, then pls give mine to someone else.
I can wait until the open beta or full release, in no hurry.
Guess I didn't make the cut ahh well
@pogui Well I didn't get a code for it, but I will if I get it.
@KidBoruto I didn't get one today, but there is still a chance for the rest of the 9, if I get one in anyone of those days, I can refer three friends the url, so if that happens your on the list (:
@Snatcher I barely know you, but I do appreciate the kind gesture!
@KidBoruto Thank you, I know a lot of people want to get into this alpha, so if I could help people getting into it who were looking forward to it as much as I, then why shouldn't I help.
@Snatcher no sorry if I worded it wrong it’s because I read and it said that you can give the code to other people and they can also play the alpha test. I didn’t mean to come off rude or anything my bad.
@pogui No thats my bad, I was just confused what you meant, I didn't think you came off as rude at all, and its true, you can give the code to two to three people I think, its one of those numbers, I'm sorry if I came off rude when I wrote my comment.
@Snatcher nah it’s all good I was just wondering if you didn’t have anyone you wanted to give it to could you give one to me you don’t have to tho
@pogui If I can I will, because I really wouldn't have anyone outside the internet to give it to.
@Snatcher yo thanks you don’t have to tho but if you do ykyk you could I won’t mind. Nah but all jokes if you do end up getting it and giving it to me thanks
My friend got in and sent me a code, wile I sadly don't have another, that means they are in fact sending them out, and if I get one that means I can give away four codes!
@Snatcher nice, lmk if the games good
