Alpha stuff, am I stupid?

Hey,

I bought into the Alpha through the store, but it doesn't seem like I've gotten access to the alpha sections of the forum. I also have the whole "Alpha Backer #xxxxx" thing in-game. Tried figuring out how to solve these, but drew a blank.

Am I just stupid, or should I do something special?

Cheers!
 
Here you go. :D

And you won't be able to choose your commander name just yet. FD will announce when you can.

Welcome to the forum.

Cheers, and thanks, I've done so. I knew it had to be somewhere. Thanks for taking the time to point me in the right direction. :)

And thanks for the welcome to the rest of you as well. Been waiting for this game for more than a decade (literally - wrote a column in a gaming mag back in 2000 about a potential "Elite 4" and have been dreaming ever since. :p ) I just took my time with backing on it since I was attempting to be sane with my money, but I just couldn't keep myself in check when I saw that thing with the galaxy size. So yeah, here I am. :D

I did say _more_ than a decade. :D

I'm slightly too young to have played the original Elite when it was new, but Frontier: Elite 2 was religion when it came to my Amiga. :p

By "waiting" I meant more the time since when FD first started talking publically about "Elite 4", which was somewhere around 2000.
 
Was about to ask about this myself, first Alpha flight was tonight. Made extra special by a Saitek X52 Pro arriving today.

Nice stick, that.

I'm using a Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog myself. A couple times more expensive, but a side-effect of my pre-existing involvement with military-grade flight sims. :) Used the X-52 before that though, very good value.
