Sea of Thieves BETA not Starting?

@gutsyfollowers I was foolishly optimistic. No matter how many times I suffer through launch or beta problems I just never learn.

Nice now we have the warning on the website, little steps, little step

even bf3 was this bad start

Although this is very common with beta's and such, especially massive online ones.... i just really hope it's nothing like the scam that is Wild West Online. pheeewww that game is mess.

I'll bet if you push the start button it'll work this time. Yes, you! Go try it.

Sometimes I get a little pause at the "getting your game ready screen" and then "too early".
Bunch of game teases...

Sadly I have a friend in Australia, who is able to play but I am not...

@gutsyfollowers ahhhhh! I just got a pause that lasted about 5 seconds. This beta is twisting my mind into a pretzel.

@benm2704 coming up on 2 hours of button pushing disappointment.

I preordered too & it’s not working on PC

@benm2704 Same man once I see a g2g ill be trying it out myself

If you had the alpha it works but if you pre ordered not so much 🤨

We aren't your guinea pigs. I might not even say anything when I get in. All button pushers, we are on strike

@sandman929 I think we might just be able to meet in the middle here no need for this kind of calamity

@austinslayer123 you're probably right, but my good feelings and altruism from the toast have worn off and now someone has to pay.

OK, I have a simple question...
Did anyone here with this problem get an access code when they pre-ordered?
I read the install directions calling for it, but I do see owned next to black dog pack and closed beta. Curious if they are related. THX

@n-a-ii-m-a They are probably stressing out on trying to fix this right now and as fast as possible answering our questions isent the priority number one right ? getting the game going is the priority... so
