Doom Beta Key

[Cake]

Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing something, but the wolfenstein.com/doom website is only a faq and one of the questions says that to enter in your doom beta key, you have to visit wolfenstein.com/doom and follow the instructions on the page. But it's still only a faq. So it'll change once the game is released I'm assuming?

Shouldn we wait for the beta key first? or am i mising something here. IM pretty sure there will be clear instructions on what to do when we get the key in our email.

I already have the beta key, that's why I'm asking

[(AUS)taxitim1]

my beta key not valid so seems like above post correct

[Tuskin]

Keep it safe and wait for them to announce when to input the key.

The beta isn't ready yet

Where did you get the Beta key?

Yea, thanks captain obvious.

To clarify, if you pre-order on steam, it gets tied to your steam account so you won't get a key but you'll still be added to the beta for when it comes out. I pre-ordered mine from GMG, so I have an actual doom beta key along with the wolfenstein key I activated on steam

Same here. I have got that beta key with the game but steam doesn't recognize it, and as Cake said, wolfenstein.com/doom is just a faq.

Maybe the official site will be updated after midnight?

The faq says this:

"Once you’ve received your boxed copy of Wolfenstein: The New Order or your key code from your participating digital retailer, return to wolfenstein.com/doom and follow the instructions located on the site. Once you enter your code you will be asked to provide a valid email address. You must use a valid email address that you will continue to use in the future; you will not be able to change the email address associated with your key code. We'll contact you at a later date with further instructions regarding the DOOM beta via the email address you provide when you register your code."

I just got a confirmation from my retailer.

The key (for the beta, which was in your box) has to be registered on http://www.wolfenstein.com/doom , but the webstie needs to be updated. So we just have to wait tomorrow I guess!

Read the posts above yours.

As per some news today, it sounds like ID is struggling to even get Doom started/going and they're loosing staff by the hundreds.

What they should really do with DooM imo is make it a niche game. Dont use more than say 10-20 people make it a small game. that doesnt have to sell millions and doesnt cost 20-50-100million to make.

I really think if doom is gonna have a future it has to stay old school in many regards. I dont want aim down sight, cover, regen health. vehicles. on rails levels, team mates, weapon limits or any of that.

Making a DooM game is actually really simple. Demons hell invasion on mars or on earth. DoomGUY is gonna stop them all. Game start.

But yeah i doubt the new DooM will be good. but we will see.

i dont think doom 4 will be bullet sponge,
heck an ex employee of Id (John Romero) stated that he dislikes Cod and Bullet sponge type games.
