Has anybody who preordered the collectors edition on Amazon received their beta key? I preordered as soon as it went up, but have yet to receive mine.

I actually got on earlier tonight for like 15 minutes. It was dope to just get that small amount of time to experiment combos and setups with Mika.
 
Didn't get a shot at the beta first time around, tried re-enrolling just now but it says it's closed, will my first enrollment still count?

So I have this pre-ordered on Steam, so I am in the PC beta
However today due to (very bad) reasons I got a PS4, is there any way to sign up for the beta on this now? As https://psnbeta.eu.playstation.com/userInfo.php?enroll=SFV says enrollment is closed. Sad times, though it is probably just as well as I would be forced to get a stick and there does not seem to be an awful lot of options at the moment. (well in the UK anyway)

The other way is to preorder the US version from Amazone, get your beta code, then cancel your preorder. Not sure if that still works though.

Yeah I just got 1.04 now, but it seemed to download quick so I suppose it wasn't that big of a file? Anyone know the update size?
 
not really an extra day when you consider it's starting at 6pm PST on the 21st and there's going to be a total of 22 hours of server downtime... if anything we're getting less of a beta.

Ah, so everyone gets in a day earlier? Dang, gonna be busy Friday, but I was really only going to use this beta as a cursory benchmark tool anyways. Might as well preorder it from Steam finally.

EDIT:
There are 22 hours of maintenance during the beta...that sucks. Wish we could mess about in training mode at least.
Good point. Perhaps that's why they gave an "extra" day, lol.

Man I really wish the beta was up tonight, got that taste of R. Mika and I just want to keep figuring her out. I think I like her a lot because her playstyle in a way reminds me of Guy (who was my main in SFIV). On the surface you wouldn't think so but with them both having aerial grabs, both having a slide and both on the corner pressure rushdown side of things they're more similar then I initially thought they were.

Great!!! The day I can't play, it's when the beta will be in maintenance :D

Thursday morning, I know I'll awake earlier than usual. I hope the Beta will not block the share options like the first one. When I launch it, no message and can take pictures....

Thanks for the update.
So besides maintenance hours, is the beta online all the time after the point when it begins?
It's not like Splatoon which was a few hours for every day right?

When the beta was unexpectedly up last week the share button functionality was intact. I took screenshots and recorded a video clip. I went as far as selecting a service to stream to, but i didn't actually start a stream. Didn't try share play either, but it wasn't grayed out. Not sure i they are allowing it for the second beta, or if it was just because it was up early. Hope it works.

Quick question guys ... I wanna gift a friend SF V on Steam. Never done this before so I was wondering if he would get access to the Beta?

Anyone tried this yet? How do you get access to the Beta on steam( Does it just show up in the gameslist?) PS4 player here so I am kinda clueless :(
