Where do i download the Beta?

ChollosChollos Join Date: 2012-08-10 Member: 155209Members
So i just recently pre-purchased NS2 in hopes of being able to play the beta.
Basically, i've got my steam code or whatever but i have no idea where to put this in or any idea as to where i am supposed to download the beta.
The site i was linked to says "registration has been disabled". So from this, i'm wondering if the site is just down, has access to the beta been closed or is it my own computer which won't let me access the site.

Thanks for any help provided and sorry if this post was in the wrong area/badly made. New here >.<

This is where i got linked to, <a href="http://www.naturalselection2.com/wp-signup.php?new=unknownworlds.wpengine.com" target="_blank">http://www.naturalselection2.com/wp-signup...ds.wpengine.com</a>

    In steam, select games, and the click Activate a Product on Steam & enter your code.

    Hmmm, take your steam code, open up steam, click on "games" in the top left corner of steam, click on activate a product on steam, and put in the code, it should install via steam.

    Oop it seems i got beat to the chase. ahaha.

    I just pre=ordered thru (Humble Bundle )and activated my Key on Steam. Does anyone know what else needs to be done to get Beta access?

    humble bundle was pre-steam, i think, so unless he somehow got it after, he should have it. right?

    I think it's because he ordered from the website and not from steam(better way to do it because UNW gets more of the cut i think.

    Looks like the Humble Bundle option might still be available: <a href="http://www.naturalselection2.com/" target="_blank">http://www.naturalselection2.com/</a> (clicking on pre-order prompts for an email address).

    I did order the game from this web site but activated on Steam. I was told to buy it here instead of Steam to get access to the beta.
    I was really hoping to get the beta. Our clan host multiple games servers. We heard good things about NS2 and wanted to try it. Is there anyone to contact that could possibly give out a key?

    That's what I heard, UWE simply hasn't made that obvious for people that preordered recently.

    They made it pretty obvious but people are getting bad information.
