Perhaps you’re an MMO-loving, PC-owning, Trekkie who’d like to see what all the fuss it about? Read on to find out how you can join the closed beta which launched this week.
UPDATE: I’ve added a brand new batch of keys below. And deleted all the old keys.
UPDATE: For the ten people who emailed me for batch #3, I’ll send you a new key shortly.
To try to redeem a key:
1. Go here, create and verify an account 2. Go here and enter one of the keys below. 3. If it works, you can go here to download the beta client; if it’s already taken, it will say the key is no longer active 4. If you win, post in the comments so I can delete that key from the list. 5. If you don’t win, try again with a different key. Also, pray.

“SBCB1-UTKDV-6P7P7-DEV87-QKPCV” I think it was this one, I kept flinging them in a desperate attempt to get one to work seeing as most of them seem to have been used now.
They’re all used up already… :<
Looks like they’re all gone.
All gone. Next time maybe
Shattered. I’m hanging out to try this. FilePlanet, here I come… maybe.
f5 f5 f5 f5 f5
I activated SBCB1-XM4U7-MVE9T-YR9CW-VBQEY Cheers. Greatly Appreciated
They went in like 1 min…. π
Second batch already gone
Just missed one. Had the confirmation page for a key, but my user session timed out as I went to help a friend get one lol.
I am so glad there is 100 to give away π Looks like the second 10 have all been used.
Wow. Stopped hitting f5 for a minute and the second batch came and went. :O
I’d assume it’s safe to delete the first batch at least? Since hardly anyone posted confirming theirs.
I was just refreshing the page, watching for the first batch to change, not realising the second batch was posted underneath.
Damn my lack of scrolling!
Second batch is all gone. When you use a key, maybe have the courtesy to post?
Here’s to hoping another batch comes out…
They’re all gone again =[
Yep, all gone.
After I stopped playing WoW in 2008 I decided right then and there I would stay away from MMOβs for good. They just take up too much of my time, plus I donβt want my childhood memories of Star Trek ruined by 15 year olds calling each other fags in what will inevitably be the Star Trek equivalent of βBarrens chatβ.
I agree. WoW took way too much of my time up.
It’s amazing how quick people snap these keys up – that Chocobo code last night was taken in about two seconds.
Hahaha! 3.5 seconds… Niiiiice.
GOT ONE! π
via email
Thanks heaps dave. I can’t wait to get stuck into this.
Good luck everyone else!
Nice shootin’ pilgrim. I don’t think I got mine off fast enough. π
haha i’m lucky because i’m at work and i happened to refresh at the right moment and clicking the link takes me straight to outlook where i just pasted and away it went.
if i was at home i would never have gotten that one lol
Same story here. A timely refresh and using Outlook at work saved the day.
3rd batch winner! Thankyou!
I give up lol was pressing F5 for ages and sent an email as soon as it changed and still got nothing π
got e-mailed a dud key π
I’ll shoot you another one shortly.
I’m starting to wonder if that’s why the first two batches seemed to disappear so quickly. But unfortunately there’s no way to verify…
That or a ravenous population of nerds out for blood (and Star Trek beta keys)
Got one in the email. Thanks.
Good luck to everyone!
I got “SBCB1-EKL8F-A9XEV-3WDLL-CWQHD” via email, but when I tried to use it, it tells me that it’s already taken.
Ouch. Sure is a lot of duds out there.
I’ll get you another one as well. I’ve alerted Atari to the problems and requested more keys.
Thanks David π
Another victim of an already-taken emailed key.
I received “SBCB1-36DER-AGR8Y-7BEG3-MUTJW”
couldnt find davids email address -.- that sucks
It’s linked in the post.
found it… im retarded lol, olny took me 20 minutes
Are you going to do email again for the next ones? or back to posting them here?
Got one via email aswell, @work aswell so hence the quick emailling…
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for helping the community.
guess im waiting for batch 4 :p
I’m with you bro.
Great now I’m going to be here for the rest of the day mashing F5 π
on the bright side of things you havent been here for 45 min doing it already like me lol…
Maaaaan. I’m dying to head out to Red Rooster and grab some chips, but… I gotta wait!
WOAH! Lotsakeys…
SBCB1-86QFU-VUFLA-RVWJW-784XT -> Done deal! Cheers!
Got one! Thanks!
heap i tried in that last update that were taken but got SBCB1-YHCCH-B6W74-G3NJD-QEQGJ to work, cheers
yeah some are invalid It took like 5 for me to get one that worked, and I was mashing f5 like every 15 seconds tell they showed, got one tho TYVM
Can’t find one of these that works π
Oh well, at least the thought was there and it’s the thought that counts right?
SBCB1-GRF3N-GRMJ9-T869E-MPNTE
Thanks!
LOL @ the sudden key spamming =)
Wow. I started tyring the ne batch at 3:10 and they were all already used up…
Crap.
Scratch that. tried again starting with the first one on the list and i got it to work!
BOOYAH!
thanks david
SBCB1-86QFU-VUFLA-RVWJW-784XT
… WHAAAT?!
HOOWWW!? THAT WAS THE KEY I…
Ok this is screwy, it says subscription service currently down, and I have no keys attached to my account.
:'(
So I entered one before anyone else and it told me the service was down. Then I couldn’t enter it again.
Crap!
Yeah same, it’s a load of s**t isn’t it. Looks like there’s a “Are you sure you want to use this beta key?” screen after you enter it.
If you don’t tick the box and click yes before someone else does using the same key they get it and you lose. Failpoints for interface design…
Tried a dozen or so & all failed. Not to worry, thanks anyway!
Same here.. π
The keys all seem invalid to me. :/
Thanks for the key. I grabbed:
SBCB1-YV68K-BFJA7-VCWRB-PT6U9
Hopefully this isn’t a double post. I hit “submit” just before and something strange happened.
oh man i think im too late, where is your email David?
can you please send me the keys also please???
bah, too late…
Darn, I missed out!!
Is that all of them then??
I can unhappily confirm that all of these are now dead or used. Just went through the whole list 1 by 1 and tried them all π
Oh well, I guess I have to wait another week for openbeta…
Yeah, seems they’re all gone and David has removed his email address from the list. Aw well.
Dang all the keys are in use π Where can i get a key
All the keys on this site are used up, in case anyone else is thinking of going through them all manually!
Damnit! I new there was a reason I should have stayed home today π
Tried a bunch.. all in use now. Lets us know what you lads think when you get to try it out!
Be nice if they actually let in the people who had applied for beta testing at their site ages ago before handing them out willy nilly to game sites π
None more works. Please pm me one if thats ok lol.
Damn. Missed it. Is there any chance to still get a key?
Anymore available?? Missed this post completely earlier π
hmm no luck with a random one of these keys …I’ve tried from top and the bottom ..no dice…
Is there more coming from Atari ? cause next Wed (12th their time) the open beta starts, but at least we can play in that as well.
I’m fighting the good fight here with F5… lol
Looks like I have to buy it off steam since all the keys are gone. π
Was this being updated any more? There seems to be only about 60 keys there
I deleted the first two batches of ten from the post, while the third batch was sent via email. Atari has sent me some new codes, so I’ll be handing them out on Monday.
Ahh cool, thanks for the info. My F5 key is safe till monday
Any chance of getting a few of the 3rd batch codes early? I have a preorder key that lets me start on Tuesday, but I was really looking forward to playing all weekend. I even sent my kids to their grandparents’ house so I’d have the computer all to myself! Pretty please? π
I, too, wanted to play all weekend π
Besides, once the 12th comes no one will need a closed beta key. Why hold onto them ’til Monday except to torture us? π
I didn’t realise the beta went open so soon for those who preordered. OK, let me update the post with the new batch.
David,
Any chance on emailing me a clean key?
Seems all the others are invalid.
Many thanks.
David if you get any more CB keys for STO please email me one. I have already preordered and downloaded the client, just need a key to try it out. I can’t WAIT to play this. Thanks.
Greg
Thanks dave mate, been longing to see if its this or the old republic to play for the new year, I picked up SBCB1-EUV3T-QGP4L-FDLN8-MGTYE thanks for the beta mate, your a legend.
SBCB1-PAAK3-YGER7-6GPMG-N6P66 worked great for me thanks
Damn it they are already gone. Are there any more perhaps?You can lie to me….
So lame, I got 2 keys and it said the Subscription service was down for them both and then Taken and nothing on my account. So not fair, thanks alot for your bad servers Cryptic. Disappointing.
SBCB1-HGAT4-77TPB-NBAB3-ULH4F
No worky for me. Any others I could use?
checked all the keys, all are taken, curious if your going to post another batch, thanks for the chance though
Just checking the timestamp, not sure what zone you are in, and ty for putting these up, hope I can manage to get one π
If you get any more I’d be interested. Thanks for posting these.
Any chance any more keys will be released? I pre-ordered as well but I was really hoping to hop on for the weekend play test. In either case, thanks David. You have brought a smile to plenty of people by doing this!
Sorry guys, I’m all out of keys now.
Boo. It’s okay, you did what you could already! Time to resort to begging Cryptic lol.
Thanks for letting us know though! I would of sat here refreshing all night! π
Ouch all gone…
are they all gone?
just wished i could have gotten one been waitin 4 rears for this game so i guess 3 more days wont hurt π
