If VISA also fails I will try with Pay-pal, but the VISA must works, otherwise I will give bak it to the bank.

I know that the game is very green just now, but I have curiosity for be in a beta, it would be my first time.

But for today I have waited enough.

Good night, an good testing if so, to all the elemental people.

I'm in!

Me too - just woke up in Australia to check my email - no luck yet. Placed my preorder a few days back.

Is there any time frame known within all beta participants will have received their email? Because my credit card pulled the money from my normal account (is that the credit check?), but i haven't received the beta mail yet.

And it's 11:39 PM (local time) so you can imagine my anxiety.

I haven't received the e-mail yet. Ah well, gonna check it tomorrow.

I believe the orders are into Sept. since I got mine.  So just be patient.

Same here : preordered early september, already got the e-mail

YAY! Just got my e-mail right now!

I am going to sleep after the downloading finishes,...gonna start to beta test tomorrow!

I haven't gotten my email (ordered last week) but its in my download list and if I right click it I can see the SN under view registration.

Now to drive home and see if it installs.

hmmm.... ordered on 7/7, still no email,pending charge, or entry on download list.  Hopefully they are just working the list backwards.

Woohoo gots my email and busy downloading from all the way over here in Oz... pity its such a nice day outside

w00t! got it, d/ling now...ummm somebody should point out that for updates, mods, etc, the EULA points to galciv2.com...recycled EULA??

Weeeeeeee! Downloading now .. preparing to complaing about the lack of fun in 3... 2... 1....

Just received my email and downloading now. No fun this weekend then! Looking forward to participating in this beta - if it develops the way Brad and Stardock are suggesting should be a fantastic experience with the community essentially co-creating or co-developing the game with the devs.  Will be interesting to see how Stardock manages this process and how they go about making the tough decisions about what player requests make it in.

Just got out of bed, and i've recieved the email in the night (apparently at 1:59 AM, and last time i checked yesterday was about 1:50 am). Bloody thing downloads like crazy, 50% while typing this post.

I have to say, if you don't have email yet you best email their customer service peoples. 

I waited this one and was quite surprised of the email this morning as i wasn't expecting it before February. So it's just all good news!

Finally I´ve got the mail this morning and my home pc must be dowloading the beta. Now I am at work.

But one question about Impulse: it is not nececesary to key the serial, is it?. I have only selected Elemental, and then clicked in Install and the game has begun to dowload.

I never received the email, but could download and play the beta fine.  Is there anything you need the email for if you can already play the beta?

20 minutes after I went to bed the e-mail arrived

Just tried it before I went to work.

I also renewed my CC.
