Timeline for forum badges?
« on: January 05, 2017, 11:04:09 am »
Those started going out yesterday, just as an FYI. :)

For anyone who has their survey submitted, I've been "locking those down" a couple of times a day, and that sends the keys.

I'm working on getting the file downloads up there this morning for the drm-free links.

Are the forum badges and such going to follow, or are you waiting longer before starting that process?

We're still collecting the surveys at the moment, which is where people tell us what their forum names are.  Thus far we still have about 950 who have not sent their survey back, so I want to give it a bit of time.  Maybe give it a week or so so that we catch the bulk of people before doing the first import.  We'll have to do more than one import either way, since we'll have stragglers, but still.

When it comes to the other basic backer rewards like the digital wallpapers and the in-game credits, those are things we'll probably wait until May or June to do.  The in-game credits I want to import only once if possible, and there are preorder people who can get onto that through the start of Early Access.  Makes sense to me to do that particular thing right after EA starts and thus that window closes.

For the digital wallpapers, our art is constantly improving and we're adding more and more all the time, so I figure waiting until that period is likely to let us create the best and most exciting possible wallpapers. :)

Okay, I don't wish to be a bother, but... Have these been done yet? Because if they have, I can't see them...

Forum Badges > Alpha Access IMO.  It really is the little things.  :)

Not an alpha backer, I take it? ;)

In seriousness, sorry about that.  It's just been nonstop things-to-do, and with 1 or 2 backers filling in their surveys every day it keeps being a thing I put off.  I need to get up with Quinn about doing the import, now that we have enough of the data.  We've had the images for a long time.

Alright, everyone should be in the system and have their badges! If you don't, or you got the wrong badge, or you have questions/comments/concerns/something else, let me or Chris know!
Come help out at the Wiki!

Shouldn't Chris get a backer badge? I know he put in a lot of his own money to make AIW2 a reality. :)
