Thats where I got mine from.. it is a stress key.

Yeah, I know it's a stress key. Still worth the 5$ to be honest imo.

ESO facebook page mentions Curse as giving out beta invites so this is legit.

Emergerd, cash shop?

Of course Curse is legit. They're a major e-sport and gaming website/community. They wouldn't risk running phony keys.

agreed. i got in through invite but if i didnt i would pay 5 bucks. hell many people spend that renting from redbox. 5 dollars to rent eso for 3 and a half days? hell yes

Be very carefull signing up on curse subscription... if it doesnt load right away after u proccess your payment info do not spam the submit button... I did this and now I have about 100 5$ transactions in my checking account.. I have messaged curse staff about this and hope they will resolve it.. either way my bank will blow um off =D just a friendly warning to you guys.

So this beta key from Curse...how long is it good for? Will it be treated like other beta keys and allow the player access to any subsequent betas, or is it for a limited time only?

Meh i`m patient. I don`t need a beta key at all I just need to wait two months.

Edit: Whatever...i was invited O:

Think it will work like the others the last betas has invited all previous testers and added more
So if you play it and answer the querys you should be invited.the next time

so i just got a key from curse, redeemed it, am downloading the client, got a confirmation email saying i got a beta account and got the beta group entitlement...but i cant find/access the beta forums...any tips/help?

edit: solved. no beta-forum access for curse betakeys

Hey all, I'm not sure if you've all read this, but curse.com apparently was given 500,000 beta keys to give to members of their site by Zenimax for the beta weekend. Feel free to go there and sign up if you want one.

I wonder why do that instead of giving it to the people directly. Marketing scheme? To have an established add on site?

I think it is probably to reach outside the usual group of people who are following the game and try and reach people who are instead general gamers but might not have considered playing ESO.

Yes curse is big among wow players for one probably also other MMO too

Would having a beta key from curse.com instead of being invited via email from Bethesda prevent me from automatically being in future rounds of beta testing?
