    @olearyyhz If you pre-ordered through the Microsoft store you are considered a founder. Those details were not very clear and I was confused as well, lol. Just scroll down the install instructions page past the redeem code section and follow the Founders instructions for install

    @n-a-ii-m-a right but the instructions for install are the same. I dont have access to play yet either, got the too early message. I was replying to someone who preordered through MS store and was worried about the redeem code

    I've got toast now. No game, but the toast is keeping my spirits up during this difficult period in life.

    @oroshimaru66 think most would have if they could read the future, there will be a statement if they believe to have fixed it.

    @musicmee I am having the same problem. I noticed in the installation instruction forum it says that windows 10 players who preordered from the microsoft store should go to redeem code to to get your download for the beta client. I preordered on December 16, I still have the email confirmation from microsoft, I am just realizing now that there is no redeem code to be found anywhere in any email from sea of thieves or microsoft!!!

    If we DO need a redeem code we will probably get it 10 days prior to the release because the microsoft store doesnt allow us to pay upfront sooner.

    Is or was there an option to pay upfront before? and is that why we cant play?

    Technically we can play the BETA and cancel the pre-order afterwards :P

    I don't know but this is something that RARE should of let us know about a lot sooner than the beta release day. I don't remember seeing anything in the last month that said people who preorder would need a code to get in. Why would we need a code, we preorderded, there's three different sea of thieves icons in my library.

    @gunn3r1327 game miss match is an update, but I'm sure they will prob release a small patch anyway. Maybe u could uninstall and reinstall or just patience 👍

    @krolie Only that Rare is aware of the problem and is all hands on deck investigating and trying to solve it

    @awfulpkz Its something to expected from a beta . You paid for the full game that would be release on march.

    @benm2704 they will more then likely extend beta period if it isn't.

    No Thieves Land :(
    not a good start to a beta.
    I feel tricked into pre-ordering.

    Are you telling me they never tested to see if a pre-order could join beta?

    looking forward to the game but this really puts a damper on the excitement.

  • GutsyFollowers

    @awfulpkz the beta is a bonus, u paid for the game.

  • Sandman929

    My toast is gone. The rage is building again.

    @kukkapants same with every beta unfortunately.

  • Porthos03

    I have been having the same problem

    Take that time to find a awesom pirate name , and ship name!

  • JBx24

    @oroshimaru66 you do realize we also paid for access to the beta as well though it was part of the deal and a problem like this can be detrimental to the game ever at this point in it's development

  • GutsyFollowers

    @sandman929 more toast perhaps, maybe with a cuppa?

  • Sandman929

    @gutsyfollowers the tea is looking pretty appealing, and that would kill some time. But how much toast can I consume? I might put it to the test.
