View Full Version : HeroClix Online Keys 2: Electric Boogaloo
<img src="http://wizkidsgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Hcol.png" width="200px" align="left" style="padding-right:5px">Following our wildly successful exclusive distribution (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?t=306944) of 500 HeroClix Online Beta Keys, WizKids has been kind enough to provide the HCRealms community with another 500 keys!
HeroClix Online is Windows/PC Only
If you are interested please modify your Profile Field (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/profile.php?do=editprofile) that asks "Would you like to participate in the HeroClix Online Beta?". Just check the box, and I will use a mix of the following criteria to select participants:
- Top Posters, Traders, Reputation, Referrers
- Membership Date (Veterans)
- Donors
- GridReality (See website (http://www.gridreality.com) for details)
- ClixCast (Listen For The Code!)
- Random Selection
Our goal is to have all the keys issued ASAP so that we can start testing and make the best product possible! Let's play this weekend!
HeroClix Online Key Distribution: 1,000/1,000

Yeah, and neah. I would love to beta, but a surprise change to our plans to see family means I can't play this weekend or next. :cry:
I have unchecked my profile with a heavy heart.

man i want a key but i would spend WAY too much time playing it (and i would probably install it on my work laptop O_o
:) :D
Makes me wish my job relocation hadn't kept me out of the game for the last 9 months... it's hard to spend money or trade for a game that you have no chance of playing. so here is hoping for random!

03/24/2011, 11:49
New to the forum, but would love a random key. Nice to brush up my skills and keep the heroclix fever rolling while I'm trying to find more peeps in the area to play with. Either way, great job with this site, it's a lifesaver.

Free all weekend. Actually I am off all weekend!
Have they said if there gonna charge $$ to play once all the bugs are worked out?

I have not been able to find anything to indicate this, but it is a great question... another good question would be how it is decided what figures are available to which people?

I have a key from the first wave.
You start with a set # of "credits" that you can spend on individual figures or boosters.
I assume more will be added down the road but the only boosters available were from HOT when we signed up.

I decided to donate to this awesome website when I saw the DDD (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?&t=309597) posted last night, I may actually have a chance to see beta after all!
On a side note I could totally see these two acting in tandem to help get some extra donations in to this amazing site. Which it totally deserves, I use the unit viewer alone more than I could count.

I am at work right now; but will be handing out keys tonight. I already have a list of ~200; and I think most of you should clear your calendars. ;)

Sorry if this was mentioned somewhere, but are these still being distributed in pairs (so we have a friend to play against)?
If so, that is my main selling point for selection: available friends who can play with me and gripe (oops I mean give feedback) about the game.
The Bog Man
03/24/2011, 13:52
Does this mean that the keywords from Clixcast are active again?
Either way, please, oh please! I'm not kidding I'll play this obsessively for you!

Pentarch
03/24/2011, 14:09
Well that's rather annoying, I actually wanted to check it out when it came out, (I'm new, so I wouldn't expect a beta key or anything), but I own a Mac. Hrm.. maybe they can be convinced to run it through Steam for Mac as well?
Being new wouldn't have prevented you from getting a key ... but being a Mac does put a blocker on it. No idea if they plan on putting out a mac version (you could bootcamp, parallels, virtualbox, etc.)
The Darkstone
03/24/2011, 14:23
Well, I am hoping to get one this time.
I just bought a bronze doner thingie cuz its double donor day.
I changed my profile and hope to play. This should be a lot of fun!

I am member since 2004 - bit of lurker and not poster too much, but i appreciate the site alot. i think the software looks amazing from the pictures (and the youtube thing) so i would love to try it - my only embarrassment will be how badly I get beat by the hardcore players - but maybe my digital dice can get lucky! I think the product is great idea and would be honored to beta test.
I'm a PC-Apple is the evil empire.

I know you said you send them tonight but what time might you do it? Jw so I know when to make sure I'm on. Also as soon as the people get their keys can they download it and start playing or how does that work.
I've been a member since 2002 and I'm on HCRealms every day.
There are no places in my area that play heroclix so I only play with my friend who lives 2 hrs away.
PLEASE, PLEASE< PLEASE !!!!!!!
I'd love to help work the bugs OUT !!!

All i can do is beg for a key. Please, please, please ...
Either give one to me, or to spworldtour ... the tiny Heroclix scene in Shanghai will be invigorated by even one key ... we're dying to play with friends in the US and Canada who are already devotees ...

man o man. i highly doubt ill get a key but it be really awesome. i have been a member of the site for a very long time though mostly as a reader not poster. i recently moved and have no where near me to play. if i got a key i could play with my buddies across the country again.

SamuraiWolf

I was lucky and got one. Dumb question: Does the key work for two computers so you can play someone, I thought I read something about they were giving them in pairs, but maybe that was the first batch. Anyway, thanks for the opprotunity and so far it looks fantastic. (actually pulled an Ultron out of a booster pack, Booyah)

And double donor days just ended. I bet you would've got a lot more donations if it was still open.

Does anyone know if he's still sending out the keys? I was really hoping to get one and don't have a pm so I guess I didn't. Darn
/sadface once again being a lurker has backfired against me... here's hoping for a wave 3
I don't work weekends so I always have them free. I would love to participate in the beta.
My only fear is that they take this the route that other collectable online games have gone and charge you real money for sealed random boosters (like you buy in the stores). I realize it is the fair way to make figures available in game to people, but as with other games, I cannot see myself and many others spending a real $10+ for 5 virtual in game characters and items. If I'm going to spend real money, I will go to the store and buy the real thing just like with other games (Magic the Gathering online is a perfect example of this). If they can find other means to distribute the figures, possibly though tournaments, campaigns, scenarios, or other in game events (maybe saving up in game currency from participating in certain events) rather than having to pay cash for them then I think more people will really enjoy it.
Here is hoping.
Sweet! Got a key last night! Gonna play ALOT this weekend!
Good luck to everyone else!
:cool:

I figured this is what they would end up doing but I could see them dumbing it down a ton. Like basically have a points card you buy (Like xbox or PS3) and have it where it's basically $1 a pack and you can trade/buy from other players(You can give them points for a certain figure) also you could have it where after so many games you win you get certain number of points added on to your account which is used to buy packs or buy figures. That would be an ideal way personally. that way they get money for it (cause they wouldn't do it for free) and then we don't have to dish out a buttload more money for having "digital" versions of our figures.
Or they could do it where the figures come with a code now and to unlock the figures online you'de have to actually buy the figure (which I'm not sure how it would work unless they do one code per figure but then all you would have to do is post them online and everyone would have a full set if their one code per figure)
Quick question for everyone in this thread. I just checked my profile to make sure I had clicked the box that I want to participate.
Now there is a dialogue to enter my HCO username. I have no new pms and to my knowledge wasn't selected. Does any other non-beta tester have this as well or did I get selected?

It showed up that way for me before I got my invite via PM (last night). I don't think it really has any tie to HCO, just a convenient way to show everyone what your name is on there.
Sorry...

I saw that on my profile as well before I updated it; I think it was just put there as a mass push to all profiles.

Yeah me too - I entered a name but it doesn't show up on my post yet..hope i get a key - i rarely get to play and would love to play online.
I think I got a key... how do I log in?
Typhoon, have all the keys been given out?
Thanks for the update in the original post... I see now that there are still tons of keys left to be given out... that rekindles my hope.
thank you for all the work that you are doing to promote this game.

PC only?? Ugh. Count me out, I guess. :sigh:
I am a lovely man with a heart full of love, patience and a beautiful smile. I like being friends with people, and often lean out of my window whistling happily at passing birds, hoping they'll sing a pretty song to brighten my day. Sometimes I spend afternoons thinking about fields and stuff. I am often invited to parties and am considered 'Le Bateau Noir' by many of my friends and acquaintances.
I have absolutely nothing to do this weekend.
I Love to Try it...

To the best of my knowledge, you're going to buy points just like anything else. You'll then use the points to buy figs/boosters/bricks/etc. It's just a matter of what the price tag is going to be.
Whoo! I got a key! This was the perfect weekend too

Never give up! there are still more than 200 left!
Yes; don't give up. :) It's a very time intensive process for me to go through the selection process ... and I normally try to 100/day.
Definitely start looking around our network of sites and our social projects for hints. :)

A scavenger hunt! I will now be optimistic and analyze every inch of the network of site and social projects, no stone will be left unturned! and maybe if I search long enough i'll either come accross a key or something to distract me or inspire anoter interest for me! Huzzah for optimism

I'v never been much of a forum member for anything, But I'm interested in testing this online version of heroclix. I have faith in this game and making it more accessible could really bolster the player population. I've submitted my request.

I'd love to be able to help test this out honestly. I truly enjoy this game greatly & haven't liked one so much since Warhammer 40K.

All i can do is beg for a key. Please, please, please ...
Either give one to me, or to spworldtour ... the tiny Heroclix scene in Shanghai will be invigorated by even one key ... we're dying to play with friends in the US and Canada who are already devotees ...
I hope you score one bro!!!!

I hardly get to play unless I want to drive an hour and a half to the nearest tournament. I would play this quite a lot.
I have a key, and I have played one match so far, plan on getting some more in tomorrow

I would love a beta key! I may not have been on the forums long, but I love Heroclix and have spent way more money on them than any other form of entertainment in the last year. Not that Heroclix online will reduce my consumption, it will be there for me when my collection can't!

"Are you the Key Master...?"
I am seriously checking at least twice a day at this point, just on the slim chance that I might've done something good enough in another life to earn one of these much-coveted keys!! Putting in my tiny little bid on getting one, whatever it might be worth...
i just keep my phone with me always refreshing the home page and when i see the number given away has gone up I look at my PM's, lets just say i look many many many times a day, but i'm always on this site so it balances it out

Boot camp is a download you can get for your mac or pc to play on the PC or mac. So lets say you have a mac, you download this, then BAM you can know play the heroclix beta on the Boot camp.

I am brand new to the forums and just recently started playing heroclix...but would love to join the beta and test it out from the "new to the game" perspective!
When I first heard about heroclix online from a friend I thought it would be a great tool for newer players to learn the rules and proper use of the special abilities...as many of them are a little confusing at first!
voNvinGeLimeR

to eventually offer this up on that platform?

Just MAKE SURE to use the lowest settings of the game to start. I tried it out over weekend and some of the higher visual settings made the map and visuals and lag time really horrible, but when i switched to lower settings (which still looked great) it worked fine for 2nd game. 2nd game I was still just figuring out how to do everything, but I only hit couple walls with figuring out how to do stuff that second game and started to have fun. visuals are really nice.

I would really like a chance to play. I would like to see how well it is laid out and use it to help teach some of my players at my venue.

I wonder how many users are logging on each day just to see if all the keys are given away and if they got 1, it goes without saying that everyone on realms wants a key but we'll all get to play sooner or later, just luck if your a sooner player!

Kinda upset I dont have a key yet....I guess only for the fact that I'll been playing HC since 2002. And have bought every single set and still play weekly.
Sucks I gets off line Rep!
Jeez. Who trusted ME with a key? Mwah ha ha ha ha!! SOON I WILL RULE THE UNIVERSE!!!
how do i apply for a key i would like to get one

Go into "your profile" and click "Edit Your Details" it is at the very bottom in a check-box
Still hoping I get one! My friend got one which made me jealous
My friend got one too! Fingers crossed!
PICK ME!!!!! I'm on the road working most weeks and this would keep me in touch with my clix side!

"New to the game" perspective isn't really good for beta testing, since quite a lot of the bugs in the system are about rules interactions. If you don't know the rules, you can't notice the bugs. I really wouldn't want anyone to start learning the rules with the beta testing, because then they're going to have to unlearn quite a lot when they start playing the real life version.

I have not played Clix Since the First Arc. I hope I get picked just because they need a fresh set of eyes for the game.
Really loving the rules changes. The Game has grown by leaps and Bounds.

How do you know when you are "blessed" with one key?
Looking forward to when it comes out for real as no-one round here plays. Hoping for a key but am new to the site so doubt i will be that lucky. Good luck to all those who get to test HCO. Make the best game we can all enjoy!

New here, but I am the most series player in my area, as I am the only one that Witch I have to drive an hour one way for any turnys. and I yousely come in first or second it has been a while sense I got therd. But this would be a grat opertunity to teach my younger kids to play with out haveing to repair the clixs afterwards. Thanks for reading this and consedring us for a key.

If there are keys left, I'd love to have one. I'm not sure if you need to post a reason (or even post in addition to editing the User Details) to get one, but other people are, so:
-I'm new to the game, but understand all the rules and am up-to-date on all of the major tournament teams.
-I'm a semi-pro Magic: the Gathering player (I qualified for PT: Paris, but couldn't attend) so I'm not new to the strategy game environment.
Thank you for consideration (assuming that making a post requesting a key is required). Regardless though, thank you for giving me a starting point for a new hobby.

03/29/2011, 22:39
I would love to be part of the beta. HCO would help with those late night clix cravings. :classic:
I don't know 'bout anyone else, but each time I see that counter on the front page jump up in numbers I get a little sadder about not getting a key... oh well. Maybe soon it'll be open to everyone.

03/30/2011, 00:27
Would love one i sit on here most days just cause i have nothing better to do and no one to play heroclix with. It is very sad seeing the counter go up. I would love akey though.i guess its just more wait and see.
PICK ME!!!!! not to sound desperate or anything.
Outwit is on the random Beta Key distribution, and I'm perplexing up my chances by one...:grin:
i will do anything for one of these codes!!! agh!!

Look at my rep! I have a lot of rep!
I"m now sad and hopeless that i will not be recieving a key since they are pretty much gone now...
Just want to say to congrats to the beta people you better make this game great and hopefully it will be released this year...

whose leg do i have to hump to get one of these keys?
This would be a great learning tool for me. I just started playing with my son who has been playing for a few years.
It would be fantastic to be randomly picked or as a newbee.
only 100 codes left, the ultimate game of russian roulette, willy ou be shot a PM with a code or will you get a blank and come up short, with 900 codes gone your odds are up in the air so sit back take a sping and lets see where the bullets land

Ya know, from what I've seen spoiled in Youtube videos and such it's probably virtually guaranteed that I'm going to be picking HCO up anyway, beta invite or no. But I would still love the opportunity to help test the game.
Here's hoping, good luck all.

Been playing for years but haven't been able to play much lately due to the wife working, etc... This would be very beneficial for me and I would love to test it out. I was involved in the MTG Online Beta many moons ago and still play it from time to time since that's another game I don't get out to play very often. Would love to be part of bringing HCO into reality so I can benefit from the times I can't get out into the real world to play a game with friends.

Well considering my job is a beta tester already and current click player it would be great if I could get a key and not someone who hasn't been on here since. 2004. Not saying he shouldn't be picked just saying they might not even play HC anymore.
TODDRUSSELL
04/05/2011, 02:52
The only justifiable reason I can think of for myself to not get a beta key , and am seriously hoping this is the case, is that they don't have the server support they will have for launch... whenever that may be.
