Thank you for answering. Much respect.
I still struggle to understand why partners only, why not put it out to backers as well, have them request to join the closed alpha and explain why they want to join. Yes, some who miss out may be salty, but if it is explained well that only a very few limited spots are going to be available, and you set a high bar for what is required (maybe a form that eliminates people as they answer questions re suitability), then this would only endear your loyal backers even more, even those not interested in first access bug testing, would feel like you value them not just as piggy banks funding this dream, but as valued contributors to the ongoing success of the game. The choice of partners who are from what I can see, all only content creators, confuses me to no end. I just don’t see what qualifies them over people who backed you financially.
The partners are a smaller, better control group we've been in close discussion for a long time. Preparing backers for a test prior to CA release would take too much time for preparation. And they're not "only content creators", they've been of huge help to the game. Keep in mind a lot of the partners are also backers.

Not op but will weapon nodding be in the game? What about the KO state?
Weapon modding and KO are in
What in particular are you wondering about?
I've already answered that question but I'm fine with doing this again. Partners will be given access before backers in order to help us find and fix critical issues so the CA launch will be as smooth as possible for you all. This is needed as we aren't able to find all of the issues with our small team. Once the countdown ends, we'll be rolling out keys to you all and you'll hopefully enjoy the game as much as we enjoy working on it.
This post has been removed. Suggestions are welcome, but we do ask that they be more constructive than simply a list of individual items or minute features with no explanation.
I'm an indigogo backer and my order doesn't appear in your orders page. Advice? Thanks
Have you followed the troubleshooting steps in the post?
in which part of the web would the supposed key appear? on orders? and from what I read, is it for the following month ?????
It will show once the release hits
Stupid question, but i bought the double barrel pack, and it says "Early access Steam (2)" does it mean that i don't get the full game on release, and its simply a early access pack??
Early access turns into the full release version of the game
I got the "We all float down here" pack a loooong time ago, will that include two closed alpha keys as well or just one with two full release keys?
There should be a closed alpha key for every early access key
So i bought the double barrel pack and the triage pack so that means i should get 3 keys right so i can share it to my friends
Correct!
A question about the QI site. If you bought The Blackest Eyes package from way back on the Kickstarter, is the Hazmat suit included with your key or is it a separate key all together. QI is only showing that I would receive 1 full key, and one closed alpha key for a friend.
I believe it's a separate key. You should be getting 2 Closed alpha only keys (one you can give to a friend), and 1 key for early access/full release
Will there be an NDA for this when its in Closed Alpha or will i be able to stream it?
There is an nda
I want to know just one thing when the closed alpha comes out I can buy it on steam or am I obliged to buy it on the IQ site to have early access ???
During the closed alpha you will have to back the game on Qi. You can only buy the game on steam when early access comes.
Dumb question, but as long as I bought on indiegogo, I don't have to do anything else right?
You will still need to register on the Qi site, as that's where keys are being distributed from
Hi, and I'm gonna burst with excitement!, Can I just ask; All those in Discord with a blue title (name) are backers eligible for a key on the closed playtest ? I am blue, I checked my order on the order page and I see I bought into Single-Action Pack, It doesn't mention anything about a key, however it says: You’ll receive access to the closed alpha and Steam Early Access + other benefits. So this is going to allow me to playtest ?
Thanks for reading!
Yup! You get that access via stream keys
Is it too late to get in on the closed alpha? I know some people have been backing for a long while, but I've only just recently built a pc, and would love to be involved in this.
Not at all! The link to the Qi site in this post will take you to where you can order packs for the game.
