The BackerKit page said it sent an email, but 5 minutes later I still don't see anything in my mailbox. Huh?
Junk folder? Automated emails can also have a pretty hefty delay. Can always try sending it again, no harm in that.
Anyone else have the soundtrack options disappear from their backerit page? ,it was showing mp3 and wav options pending now they've gone poof!!
Same here did not notice till you mentioned
Still have Shadowhawk pending
They are no longer showing, but the codes will be released when the game is unlocked. From Kickstarter Update 50:
What about my other digital rewards like the code for the 'Mech skin, soundrack, or art book? When do I get them?As noted above, all other digital Backer rewards - the Official Soundtrack, Art of BATTLETECH pdf, and codes for in-game rewards - will be delivered to BackerKit accounts in time for launch. You will receive a BackerKit email when that happens and must return to your BackerKit account to retrieve those rewards.
To everyone feverishly refreshing their email
1) Emails are going out to users from BackerKit
2) This process TAKES TIME. If they spammed 50k emails out simultaneously they'd be blocked by every email provider on the planet
3) IF you choose a steam key, getting the key now, 2 hours from now, tomorrow has zero difference. You can't pre-load until Monday anyway.
4) IF you choose a GOG key again the key doesn't do anything until release. So getting it now is basically like getting a birthday cake and then realizing you're trapped in the glass isolation ward with Ebola until Monday. It doesn't matter what you get now.
If you want to sort of 'figure out' how to get your key ahead of time
A) You have an existing account on BackerKit
https://www.backerkit.com/master_backer_accounts/sign_in
Log into your BK account if, like me, you've backed a ton of things in the past
B) You don't remember your BackerKit login

Use your email address. You'll then get a link to your BattleTech BackerKit page.
My BackerKit page only shows how I can share my pledge number on Twitter! I will AC20 this enitre place! Where are my Keyzzz!
Ok calm down! In the middle of the page you will see
"Get Your Digital Downloads"
Click on this and you will get to the page with your keys

Ok calm down everything will be ok! The sending of keys as noted above takes time. Just breathe! Calm down. Take a break. Like eat a sandwich. Go outside, because lord knows you're not gonna see the outside much once the game comes out, so get that all out of your system now.

First Post on the forums, just signed up to say that backerkit says:
"Instructions: Note that GOG keys won't activate until Tuesday, April 24th at 9am PDT and you will get a "code expired" message until then."
But this is incorrect. Following the link will allow you to activate the copy of the game for your gog.com account, it just displays a countdown timer until the game is available to download.
