Corrections to last post "Surveys and Getting the Game"
Amazon Payment Kickstarter Backers - We apologize as made an error in the last post and have discovered that we can in fact get your survey data anytime. So now we will wait until at least 90% of you Alpha or greater Amazon backers have completed the survey and begin collecting and bringing your data into our system and then sending out emails with a registration key and instructions on how to register and download the game.
We are processing a lot of data and will get you all up and running as soon as possible! And for now we ask that you please do not email us as answering thousands of additional emails will prevent us from getting you the game. We ask you to be patient a little longer as we get you the game in the coming hours or days!
You stay cool! The Fun Pimps

Eric Czimcharo on
the fact still stands that i work tomorrow and Monday to Friday so i was hoping for it this weekend. or i have to wait till next Friday and Saturday to get more than a few hours play time in.
Benjamin Cortes on
Everyone please calm down, you will eventually get your keys so far to what I know 3,700 - 8,000 people have gotten their keys. No less possibly more I am not 100% sure, We've waited this long for them to start sending out the keys, now it's just a few more hours and possibly another day... They DID say AS CLOSE AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE TO THE 16TH OF AUGUST 2013...

Hey guys, as a public service announcement I would like to point out that Kickstarter is not a retail store and pledging is not the same as going to amazon.com and ordering a digital download of an already released game.
Backing a Kickstarter project is a great way to support projects that you want to see completed. This was a very successful Kickstart for this game as we have hit all of the developer's stretch goals! Now we need to give those guys time to execute on their plans.
The devs have been clear all along that everyone who pledged enough for early alpha access would get keys as soon as possible and while I'm sure it's not going as quickly as everyone would like, it is happening and backers who want this game to be a success need to keep in mind that part of alpha testing is testing key distribution and key activation so we're already testing! I am sure if they could just wish the keys into everyones inbox they would.
Andrei Iustinian Tudor on
this is bullshit! the pirates already cracked the alpha and me who bought the game still dont have it!!! hurry up!

Really @Luke Hardcastle? We're here to support this game, don't even mention stuff like that.
Eric Czimcharo on
I hate to just the dev team and stuff but actually starting to loose some interest in the game.
Bryan Nagy on

Instead of speculating about keys, or questioning the fact that they've begun to go out,
why not check the OFFICIAL info channels and read for yourselves?

They also have a facebook group though it dosn't seem as updated.
Here you'll see the local Dallas time btw:

You're going to get the alpha, but if you're too damn impatient, go distract yourselves by watching movies, playing (other) games or even going outside!
You can still check your mail every so often,
but updating the shit out of your inbox won't make the key appear faster.. =D
Timothy on
I like turtles! XD
Andrei Iustinian Tudor on
they are posting on twitter when keys are released: https://twitter.com/7DaystoDie
Sean Baade on
as much as i'd like my key now, i really just want some update as to the status of keys. that would pacify me quite enough. either way i'm happy. can't wait to play, going to be good stuff.
Andrew Porretta on
There are so many users just whining on here about not having a key yet like a bunch of kids. It concerns me about the people I'll end up playing with in game.
Seriously, it's an indie game with a very small team and it's still in Alpha. Yes you'll get the Alpha access you paid for, just hold your horses, there's a lot that goes into the logistics of handling everything post-Kickstarter. There's no magic button to send out all of the keys. Just calm down and be patient. Be glad that there's actually going to be something to get this close to the end of the Kickstarter, most have nothing for months.
Shane Williams on
the way they have gone about releasing this is pathetic 2 day way so far for something released on Thursday hmmm if i see this on steam early access in a few weeks im going to be very pissed
they should have managed this alot better im a bit disappointed that kickstarter essentially lets programmers do this ...having a solid policy on making sure games dont take money without immediate (or at least within 24 hours) is cause enough to be ready for release as an alpha they should have spent more time on sorting this out
Shayne Cameron on
I'm also impatiently waiting (for 3 keys, actually) but they can't work day and night. It takes time to process so many people, I guess.
Lamorta on
I was Teasing them but I am really Old Muhahaha, You guy have no idea what waiting is I'll give you one example world of warcraft it took them 14 day to get it out pass release date server crashes and game bugs at the end of the it was 39 day before I had a copy that would really run and could play more that 15 minutes. Be glad They have a Alpha copy we can play.
Ethan on
god its taking them a long time I really want to play in the morning tomorrow I really hope I get the email
Sean Stanley on
I feel like a unicorn, being one of the rare patient people who are happy to wait for something I know will be awesome n_n You already know these guys are working very hard to get everyone on, so be cool, like The Fonz. EEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH
Lamorta on
What is taking so long they have roughly just 14000 backers are they doing them one at a time ? I'm old I could drop dead anytime and my one wish is to just play 7 days to die hurry guys hurry!!
james on
there taking there time now the system there using to give keys out sucks ass
dylan cole on
i wonder how much percent has done it?
mathewkraft on
i like ice cream
dylan cole on
if you can answer your survey and it just takes you back to here, look on the right hand side of your screen were it says how much you can pledge, go down to the amount of how much you pledge and on the bottom of that box it will say " response" and you can do it from their.
Suter Samuel on
omg Marc you are fucking retard
Tyler Whipple on
People need to learn to be patient. While I suppose they could have done this in a better way, it's not the end of the world. Just be patient so they can do what they need to do to get the game to all of us. They worked hard on this game for us, and up until now you all were stoked. No need to get pissed at them now
Tobias Lauridsen on
yes Marc just put the game on torrent site so any can download the game.... the day today's stupidest comment.
just take the time guys:-)
Marc Pedersen on
Ore just someone who has the game can uppload a torrent so thats is no problem to downloading it. so no server crash!!!
100/10M
GO SWEDEN GO!!!
Eric Czimcharo on
pass the time watching and listening to this http://www.youtube.com/watch… It is Dear Esther
Sam on
If they released the game in a torrent file there would be absolutely no issues with their servers crashing.. It's not like piracy is an issue because they'd need a key and there's not a lot you can do to stop it anyway.
Not to mention everyone would be able to play by now. Just a thought.
Andrew Thompson on
this is around the time that they are working on so watch time past if u must http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/central-time/
