Anybody know when people with Lifetime Pass will receive a key for Odyssey?

Probably when the game releases

Lifetime pass people were already going on the alpha when it was running

Cool, thanks for the reply.
Crossing my fingers it's going to be amazing :)

Wish they would have brought that back for a time so more of us could purchase it.

We got a lifetime pass cause we trusted David and backed the game on early stage.
It’s a reward of trusting this game when few had trust on it.
it’s a bit easy to come when the war is over and say : i want a medal too !
Lifetime is a our medal of honor and all of us are proud of being a part of the game itself.
@kega : yes it will be an amazing experience for sure :)

I expect it would be problematic to bring Lifetime Expansions back given the high price it was last time* and the 5½ years that has elapsed since Horizons. Those who purchased it last time will only just be at the break even point when the next expansion (after Odyssey) arrives.

They couldn't reduce the price that much as it would devalue what those who purchased it last time paid and if they priced it too high they're basically committing to another decade's worth of support.

Unless they're able to deliver paid expansions at a faster pace it's unlikely they'll offer it again.

* £130/$195 if you didn't own the base game, £120/$180 if you did.

How high was the price the last time? I think I paid like €40, ages ago.

it was an incentive offered to us as we backed very early on, when ED could have been vapourware, like so many other Kickstarters. It was a nice thank you, but we have not exactly been deluged with free content due to the game's rather glacial development pace.

I think I paid £90 for it. It was the Premium Boxed set edition IIRC. Lowest pledge available for LEP.

This. That's exactly why I have very mixed feeling about this. It was a terrible investment (6.5 years and not yet at the break even point).

I paid £35 for it, I saw it as a no brainer, bought the premium beta when ED was in alpha stages, just missed the kickstarter by 2 days

Paid £120 for mine once the game was released.
Also waiting patiently for my odyssey key.
