I still didn't get the code. I'm still waiting for the code to try I2.

Fujin!
Does anyone know if the code all go out at once or is like a slow one at a time?
So far it seems like a very slow stream of codes going out. I don't know if it will end in a big pile of codes all being sent out at once, or if it will end just as slow as it is now.

Really hope it picks up the pace, because I've only seen maybe 5 or 6 people get codes this time around.

Still say they could've went Hollywood handouts + preorder distribution, to reward people who actually are investing early into the game, but eh, it'll all work out in the end.
I wouldn't think of this as a reward -- they want people who are actually interested in testing the game. Better data that way

Which explains why they gave Hollywood handouts. But if that was their intention it shouldn't have been advertised like Opera, which is why so many peeps were upset when they saw how it went down. Clarity goes a long way. Either way, it's a reward to those players who they feel can flesh the beta out because they are getting early access which leads to a number of things.

There are issues I have noticed people have with this, some I agree with and some I understand. For example, certain people I won't name who were handed a code were people who shit on NRS all throughout Inj1 and MKX, some not even playing the games. But they were hand given a code over someone like Tweedy who fully supports NRS, but had to win one from Storms. This imo is messed up to say the least, and counter productive as a community. Others signed up in the first hour but we're beat out by someone else who registered a day later so there's natural salt there too.

All in all, it seems the MKXL Beta was handled much better that time around. I'm not sure why, but it wasn't like this at all.

I think the biggest thing is this is a beta for an entirely new game, where mkx was a beta for new netcode as well as some possible balance patches.
If you didnt get a code for mkx, you could still play mkx. If you dont have an I2 code, you can do nothing with injustice 2 but watch others have fun.

Lol I didn't think of that, but it is a very good point.

No worries. Im just as frantic as everyone else cause Injustice was my favorite. I had been replaying Injustice 1 before the beta was even announced. Now just crossing my fingers like the rest of you, cause Injustice 1 online is BARAKA TIER.

Haha def! Injustice was my fav out of the 3 easily. The only solace I take in not having a code is that no character I want to play has come up yet gameplay-wise. If Raven was in the beta or something I would be selling infants for 5 minutes of play lol.
