When are the kickstarter rewards that apply to skirmish going out i.e. game copies, dust rider 1.0, etc?
-
This is copied straight from the kickstarter page.
Greetings to all!
Our Kickstarter for Adventure Mode has come to an end! We were able to raise just over $200,000 after our PayPal donations added in. It was an incredible time especially hours before the campaign ended. Tons of new backers and changes to pledges to even higher tiers. All of us at Muse Games offer our heartfelt thanks... but only briefly as we scramble to Kickstarter fulfillment and working on the next phases of this game.
We will be sending a survey out shortly via Google Surveys to your Kickstarter emails. We've already pulled your data so go into your Kickstarter accounts and look at what email you have registered right now. That is where all our surveys, game keys, and other information will be going towards. You will be required to input your Kickstarter email into our survey for our cross-referencing purposes. Keep your eyes on those email inboxes and those spam folders.
Fulfillment of game keys will occur ASAP when we receive the bulk of the survey responses. Fulfillment of physical swag will take longer since we need to put orders in the various items to manufacturers and other vendors. We send these all by hand from our office so your patience will be greatly appreciated. Do not fret, you will get everything you pledged for as soon as we humanly can get them out the door.
PayPal donations have been deactivated for the time being. Since the Kickstarter ended, we can't offer the same stuff on PayPal since that wouldn't be fair to you guys who backed us here. We'll be revising our tiers and offering fewer and more simplified ones again on PayPal in the future.
While we did not meet our lofty stretch goals, we assure everyone that we will push on regardless to make Adventure Mode a reality. We are still currently evaluating our financials and looking at potential release strategies. Again, multiple small DLC vs. one big DLC. This is all TBD right now but whatever works to keep us at work, everyone who backed Adventure Mode will get a Season Pass to whatever DLC we put out until Adventure Mode comes to light.
We'll keep you posted on the next steps of fulfillment!
Stay tuned,
Eric

Wait, what does that mean?
-
Basically, if you missed the Kickstarter but still want to donate toward adventure mode and get some free stuff, they will open up an avenue for you to do so. However, you won't get as many nice things for your money as that wouldn't be fair to people who did back them earlier. Probably special things like swag and signed artbooks, ect.
That's my unofficial interpretation of it.
-
But as long as I backed it a week before the timer went out through paypal, I'm alright?
-
Yea it should of charged you May 21st at 10:02am EST if my memory serves me right.
-
Yes it charged me, that wasn't the question. I did read that FAQ, and it said when the kickstarter ended. Well it ended, so I'm asking for a harder date than that.

About two hours ago a e-mail was send to everyone who backed (I hope it was sent to everyone) with a survey for physical rewards and there was a notice about digital rewards. They are going to be distributed via digital keys (either for Steam or in-game shop), so Muse is going to sort it all out in "the coming days".
So probably digital rewards are going to arrive by the end of the week.

As long as you backed before the kickstarter closed (and before they took down the paypal stuff) you count as a full kickstarter, regardless if you did it via Paypal or KS itself, so don't worry.
They just mean that when they open up Paypal again it won't have the same reward structure.
-
lol I'm not worrying, I get that! I'm just asking when the kickstarter rewards will be sent out...

My bad.
Digital keys: ASAP (Coming days?)
Physical: They need to work out the total number of each thing they need (The faster everyone get their surveys in the better), get them made, get them shipped to them, repack and ship them out. I would say minimum of a month for them to get it all to them, plus shipping time to wherever in the world you are (Could be longer, it really depends)
-
I received my email today with the survey, the keys will go out in a few days time.
-
I did not receive an email. Guess I'll just e-mail support ...?
-
Ya I didn't get a survey either.
-
have you checked your junk mail?
and make sure its the email thats linked to your kickstarter. Its the one they are sending mails to.
-
I believe it was sent to a defunct account of mine. I emailed Muse, but nothing back yet.

To quote the email
This is Eric Chung from Muse Games. You will be receiving all surveys and fulfillment emails from me and you can respond directly to me if you have any questions or issues (eric@musegames.com).] This is Eric Chung from Muse Games.

Just got all my rewards in my email.
-
me too :)
-
Same! It's ok to give away the copy of skirmish if you already have it right?
-
Got mine now, thank you Muse team.
Question: What exactly did the costume pack unlock? Captain's costume pack for skirmish appears to have unlocked 1 (random?) costume for each class.
Is this independent of my KS tier [Complete Adventure (Early Bird)] reward of costume, goggles, and hat for all three classes? I'll be getting that once Adventure Mode comes out?
-
For the many of us who own Skirmish mode, can we give our Skirmish Mode Game Key(s) to other people who have the game. I also may give my costume pack to another person if I already own most of the outfits. I am going to keep the Dustrider outfits, they are mine! Just want to confirm that separate steam accounts can use codes from the same email.

I gave my extra skirmish key away and it worked fine.

Captain's costume pack is 6 costumes (not random), one for each class and gender. This is indeed separate from your costume sets, which will be your choice of items. We'll be sending a different survey for you to pick these items soon.

Yep, you can give your keys away to anyone you like. They're not tied to your account.

Hi everyone,
I helped GoI project via Paypal and recieved reward keys, I used the soundtrack's key on Steam, but I don't know where music files are... could you help me?
Thanks!
Andrea, your italian fan. :)

Soundtrack should be in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Guns of Icarus Online\Guns of Icarus Online Soundtrack
Alternately, you can right click Guns of Icarus in your Steam library, click properties, then the "Local Files" tab. From there, the "Browse Local Files..." button will take you to the folder containing the soundtrack.
The media player "VLC" will play the AIF files without any additional plug-ins. Not sure about other players, you might run into trouble.

Thanks mate, I found the files right where you said, I really appreciated your prompt and detailed reply! :)

I've gotten the survey but not any rewards, should I be worried?

I think you can take it easy for a couple of days more, the list is probably rather long. If nothing's happened by then you can e-mail Eric about the matter. I'll send you his mail in a PM.
-
Alright, I'll give it till next Friday and then shoot Eric an email if nothing happens. :)
