Ahoy i recently upgraded to Alpha from premium beta, i can DL the game etc but i dont have alpha forum access..

The Blaze...
 
I bought into the Beta and want to upgrade to the premium beta but when i goto order review its charging me the full £100, surely it should be £50 ( as ive already bought the beta ) or will this option be available once the beta stage starts?
 
The discount only applies to the alpha at the moment.

Ok understood. Will the option be available to upgrade from beta to premium beta once the beta starts? I see a few people are talking about this option and would save getting a refund to rebuy the premium package.

Thnx
 
New Premium Beta

I gave in after waiting to see if there will be announcement about discount for existing kick starter backers.

I getting a digital copy from pledging £30 in kick starter. now with the £100 premium beta, Will I have 2 separate copies? since I did not used the original pledge against the premium beta... it is getting quite messy, I don't really need two copies of the game so would have been if we could used the original pledge to get our betas.

Not sure to be honest, although if we offer an upgrade you'll probably be able to claim the discount as a refund. Your best bet is to contact the store support on the two copies question.

Thanks Michael,

Yes it would be great if refund is offered if at a later time you do start discounting the amount already pledged.

If that was not to happen, then what one should be able to do is give their surplus license (in my case the £30 KK digital copy with 500 credits and reserved name) to somebody else, of May be give a coupon/credit voucher to buy goodies from my favorite market place. Zaonce.store.

I can't wait for the Beta Premium, I first played Elite on my brothers electron achieving deadly rating, I've not really played many games since my Amiga days, if any game that can take me back to my childhood then this is the one... being married with children that is a huge leap!

Do I lose my expansion?

Quick question, I backed on kickstarter and have standard beta access plus expansion pack. If I upgrade £15 to premium beta do I keep everything eg my kickstarter extras and expansion pack or do I have to but the expansion etc all over again?

You should keep all your existing extras including the expansion pass. if you'd like to have that clarified email support@zaonce.net and they can give you the full details.

Tried to upgrade Alpha from Premium Beta and it asked for £200 instead of £100 as it was before?, even through checkout and credit card purchase. It seem to be back to square one after Premium Beta Single Player release.

Let me know when it fixed, not taking any chance :)

How long do the emails take to come through for the discount code to go from premium beta to alpha?

It's a whole new download, it's different software for each.

I suggest uninstalling the current client and installer (alpha 1.1 issued to beta backers) and go to the store. Go to "My Downloadable Products" and you should be able to see both alpha and beta there. Select the alpa (natch, you don't need beta any more) and re-install. Then get a new code if asked.

Just a guess.

If you've done that, well new codes by e-mail should be a matter of minutes. Check your spam filter.
