UPDATE: We're live! https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...d.php?t=325465

OK guys, later today (early afternoon ET) we will release the Public Beta of OOTP 22 to the friendly folks who have pre-ordered. In order for things to go smoothly, please read on.

1) Locate your serial number, you will need it today. You can find it in the confirmation email of your purchase in the Fastspring webstore. The serial number looks like this: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX.

If you cannot find the confirmation email, no problem. Fastspring/QLM has an after-purchase-support page, where you can find all your orders and receipts online. Please open the after-sales-support page here. There is a button that emails you your serial number.

2) We will send you an email to the email account you used for ordering once the game is ready to go (probably in the afternoon ET). The email will include the link to the setup files (one each for PC & Mac). You should, to be sure, check your spam folders too when looking for the email. Also, if you unsubscribed our newsletter in the past couple of years, you will not receive an email because you are blocked from our list. If that is the case, please check this forum, we will have a sticky post containing the links.

3) After you have downloaded and installed the game (if you may get a Windows Defender warning when running the installer, click the "More Info" link and then the button to run the app anyway), the main screen will have the buttons "Purchase" and "Enter License Key" enabled. Click on the latter button, and then enter your license key into the box which comes up. You can use copy & paste, pasting on the PC works by hitting CTRL + V, on the Mac it's Cmd(Apple) + V. Again, the serial looks like this: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX ... the complete string is needed! Make sure you have no white spaces at the beginning or end.

4) It may take a few tries to activate the game, the servers will probably be rather busy. Unfortunately, this is out of our control, so you may have to be a bit patient. If you are having consistent trouble, please try disabling your firewall / virus scanner for the activation process.

5) If you still have problems activating the game, please read the following article in our knowledge base: Activation Problems - Help Desk

6) Please do not post bugs on this general forum! Post bug reports here: OOTP 22 Bug Reports and follow the bug reporting guidelines! Bugs related to Perfect Team go to the PT 22 bug report thread.

Alright, that's it I guess. We will monitor the forums over the week and fix all bugs that get properly reported to our support team. On Wednesday & possibly Thursday we'll release a beta patch. Then on Friday we will release the final game (including bug fixes) to the masses.

Be safe and have fun with OOTP 22! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do

Cheers!
Markus

Pacing around my house cause I can't wait! If I pace any faster, I may go fast enough to speed up time! Actually, that sounds like a good plaaaaaaaaan

Which direction are you pacing, I do not want to pace in the opposite direction and undo what you are doing!

mgom27 · 03-23-2021, 11:21 AM

Good to know.

jg2977 · 03-23-2021, 11:28 AM

Looking forward to it! I’m going to the gym now because I’m sure I will be at my computer desk for hours tonight!

Yes, i was thinking yesterday that it felt like Christmas Eve.

The wait is killing me.

Opening Day IS Christmas for us baseball fans... I've been doing that for 37 Aprils.

johnnybawlz · 03-23-2021, 12:10 PM

...I look at the phone, hoping to see an email with a download link. But alas, it's a junk email from 7 Eleven wanting me to buy more hot dogs. I sit in bed, waiting for the moment to arrive where I can begin my journey into baseball math and forget for a moment that life is awful.

That email never comes. But I will still sit here, hoping for a better future, one that has OOTP 22 in it instead of a job that literally makes me want to throw up every morning. And by literally, I mean literally. Not the fake "literally that thing happened" when it wasn't literal. Every morning, I wake up, and the stress of the knowledge that I have to go into that place in an hour makes the stomach acid boil and I'm left wondering whether I can bend down to rinse my mouth after brushing my teeth without hurling up something into my nose.

One day.

I'm doing figure 8's if that helps

Edit: I'm almost sure I'm undoing it by myself!
