Hello I love da planetzsidez

but in terms of the upcoming beta Higby was talking about beta that veterans and PCgamer magazines beta key would get in first and that the twitter keys would get in later.

So the question is,

I have both and put both keys in I put the PC gamer beta key in first and then got a twitter key later, did that overwrite my PCgamer key?

Likely. Does your PS2 account status say active? if it does then the twitter or PC Gamer key is active. You should not have gotten a key for just being veteran, your account should say inactive in that case.

So that means either the twitter key or the pc gamer key is being used.

I'm honestly surprised it would have let you enter a second code...but why would you want to if you have already used a PC Gamer code?

I thought they were letting people on the E3 server, but I was wrong, just a mistake on my part.

I'm a vet and entered a PC Gamer key as well just to make sure I get in, anyone know how this affects me?

I would think whatever method they use for sending the invites would just query a database for anyone that qualifies as a veteran. In which case having a beta key attached to your account would be meaningless...unless you somehow didn't make the veteran pool, in which case your PC Gamer key would come into effect...which is actually in the same pool as veterans.. As for then entering a twitter key...

Impossible to speculate what will happen there... Do keys stack? If not, you killed your PCG key with a lesser-quality Twitter key, but I doubt it would effect your vet status. I wouldn't worry if you're a vet, if you're not, you may want to try and ask someone. PS1 streams on Twitch (ie AT's streams) are a good chance to sneak a question in if they're watching. Higs and Danicial are usually around.

^^^ I don't think these details have been provided to anyone. But if they have I would like to know as well! :)

Also, I can guarantee that any info we currently have on PS2 be it beta or whatever, is in the PS2 Information thread that is stickied to the top of this board and in my sig.
