Its just an alpha not the full game so stop creating it away

I think if you own the Alpha (Early Access) so you'll get the full game when it's released. If you activate a key and go to the game's steam store page it says that you already own the game. It would be a real d**k move if you'd activate an alpha key and by that permanently prevent yourself from buying the game. Also I don't think steam would have the resources to "disable" all the Alienware keys, when the game is released.

It's not a guest pass, it's the game in Early Access which mean you'll get the full game when it's released.

You might be right, you might be wrong.

Games on Steam can have sub classes.
Notice the one titled "Gauntlet for Beta Testing".

Steam could easily disable all access to keys that belong to this subclass.

okay I understand that, I was wrong then. However I still think that neither Steam nor the devs would prevent the potential customers from buying the Early Access game by handing out free keys.

This game belongs to main one thought

License Calibre 10 Racing Series (34861):

  • State : Active( flags 0 ) - Purchased :
  • Apps : 266370, (1 in total)
  • Depots : 266371, (1 in total)

So did my Drunken Robot Porn alpha key and I can't play it because it was disabled.

Incorrect information there. It says that any time there is alpha or beta trial, guest pass, free weekend, whatever -- yes, it will say that you own the game.... that is until the trial expires and comes off of your account.

Why wouldn't they indicate the duration of the trial then? I said "I think" so I'm just making guesses, not stating anything.

What the developers say:
“The game is in ALPHA stage and is an UNFINISHED product. The game will be updated regularly based on the feedback from you, our players. DO NOT buy this game if you are expecting a polished and feature-complete game.


Note: EARLY ACCESS customers will get all the launch content - no matter what the final price point or monetization model will turn out to be.
“We are feeling confident about having solid & fun core gameplay, but we are also realistic about the challenges of delivering on expectations for a multiplayer title,” said Michael Putz, CEO, Bongfish. “As a small independent studio, we view Early Access for C10 Racing Series as the right tool for involving the community. We look forward to hearing from players and will be very attentive to the feedback suggested by the community. The game in now available in pre-alpha state, we plan to keep the players apprised on all of our additions and improvements as they occur.”

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!”

The game counter increments by 1 when you activate the key. This only happens with keys that will later unlock the full game once it comes out of alpha/beta afaik.
When I activated my Primal Fears beta key the game counter hasn't incremented so when the beta ended it was removed from my Steam library.
If this is only an alpha key it doesn't make sense that the game counter increments and you're not able to buy it from the Steam store

Depends on whatever it is public or not.

Private games won't show up on profile and nobody can see if you play it.
This is already released, so it's public and thus counts.

I got it with the assumption that its just another normal Alpha/Beta, and not from the perspective that they're giving the games away. Before all of this Early Access nonsense, people played the Alpha/Beta builds, gave feedback, and then the game was released. Maybe you'd get a shiny in-game cookie for having done the Beta, but that's it. I'm not sure why people would expect this Alpha/Beta to give one the full game for free.

That's just a quote from the Steam page. It's the game's early access description and it has nothing to do with it being full or trial.

Since this thread was left without an official statement, I'd like to add one.

One of the devs (hex01) stated, that the Alienware keys give permanent access, as they are regular "Steam Early Access" keys and not limited to apha/beta phase.

So yes, this is the full game.
