I gave them a piece of my mind
X5 is fine is my book.
I still need to really play 8 someday.
1, 4 are still the creme de la creme

In what way? The delays or the mishandling of nearly everything?
The Shenmue updates are enough to show that even if the game doesn't turn out to be great it won't be because of the perpetual shit show that was MN9 development.

The codes are invalid. IN my case, they send the DLC code and not the actual key. So I can't do anything until I get the MN9 key first, redeem it then the DLC. The previous install that is in Steam is just useless now.

Listen mate. I enjoy many of your posts and opinions, but don't you wish that evil on me. Just don't do it.
Do it!

Yeah, I don't get the X4 love either. I played it again like a year ago and the level design was so incredibly awful and the rest of package wasn't much better. Finding upgrades and stuff in the first 3 games was exciting and fun. In X4 it feels like they just dump the stuff in your lap because they feel obligated to include them or something.
What system? I received a Steam key (plus the DLC codes) and redeemed it right away with no problem. It's not in my Steam library, although the game hasn't unlocked yet.
They covered this quite some time ago, back when the beta version and the "Special Demo" were sent out. Granted, that was quite some time ago, so I understand it'd be easy to forget.

What the fuck. This should have been done days ago. I really do think the backers are going to get the game after normal buyers now
I got nothing. Still only the demo trash in my humble bundle account.

this is true. Grace Chen needs to flip the switch.

Nice, I may be able to play a little tonight.

You realize that the modern reviews that gave this game 6s use the "modern review" scale. It would rank as "Shit Sux".Damn, everyone acting like you backed a strain of super aids.
It's a 60 on metacritic. It's average. It's an outcome that all of you should have understood was possible in donating to a kickstarter. That's why investments are risks and not guarantees. Unless I missed the blood oath promise of a 90+ metacritic game if you contribute to a KS that hits it's goal. Bad games are invested in all the time. And I feel incorrect for even calling this a "bad" game, since the metacritic indicates once again, it's average. It's funny to see most of you perpetuate the horribly skewed perception of the 10-point scale; essentially this, where no other numbers exist:
There's plenty of shit to criticize this game for and understandable disappointment in some aspects, but the hyperbole is out of control. I'm still looking forward to killing a few hours on a Megaman-esque 2D platformer. As a backer, it didn't quite hit my expectations. But I don't see the point of expending so much energy on being a drama queen about the whole affair. It's an average downloadable 2D platformer. That's all.

I like to argue that it IS average... But why would most people want to settle for AVERAGE with entertainment? Competent but bland and boring? Great games can be gotten for cheap these days.
So average breh.
Whether we like how the review scale works or not, it is what it is. Saying "6 is average," doesn't change that within the industry a six isn't really average.
I get an error saying the code is invalid so they are up but might not be activated or they gave out the codes wrong.
Same here, I guess we have to wait on Sony... which means nothing will happen until tomorrow afternoon at this rate.

Interesting. Thanks for the update.

I just checked the Beta email sent on September 01, 2014. The redemption was directly through Steam with a code. My HB page is linked with my Steam and there is nothing on there yet.
It could be that I might get the codes on the 24th since I backed the project with a card outside NA and Asia (but the address has since changed to Japan).

Wow. Between the reviews and everyone's code problems I really am glad I pulled out before it closed on kickstarter. I started getting bad feelings toward the end. Glad I trusted my gut on this. Shame too cause I was hoping It would have proven me wrong.
this.
I'm in the same boat as him. Stuff redeemed fine, but the Ray code was a Retro costume code.

Cool, I might just give this a...
if you're on PC, get your key from GMG for $16
Dunno if this was posted here but a user on Reddit was able to play through a Wii U copy a day early. He cites 45 second load times on death as well as horrible performance issues. He also says it freezes the Wii U which forces you to do a hard reset every so often.

Strange, if you could redeem it then it must be a problem with the codes. When I put it in it says it's valid and gives me a check mark but it won't work.
Yeah, but steam won't unlock it until the 24th. But that's ok, I understand that those ships bringing containers full of downloads to Australia take a long time to get here.
