Did anyone get a free key for What the Fog
It kept giving me an error as I tried to hit continue to get a free key. Now it says all gone. Less than a minute of it being announced. Did anyone get one? I'm really bummed it was gone within seconds.

i cant even get into the website haha
there is not really some limited gift again that I already missed out on?? 🤨
Sort of.
They announced a small game that was obtainable with free keys on a site they dropped on stream.
The keys went out of stock within minutes. And the site's now dead because of extreme traffic.
The game's available for purchase on steam as normal, too.
Not again 🙄🙄
what website do you go to?
why do eric and dork keep saying to make a account and get it for free when the keys are already gone, they are clearly getting updates in their headsets :/
https://account.bhvr.com/
A lot of the stream is prerecorded afaik
that crossprogression drop seemed to be edited, cause the person they talked about mentioning it definitely didn't lol
Okay good I thought I was going insane and had to rewind the live stream on youtube to see if I missed it.
That page has no content for me except for the frame layout.
Got further this time but still says they are out of free keys :( Did they only have 10 keys or did a bot get them all?
You have to keep hitting refresh
Nope 😥
You snooze you lose, I guess.
I won't be supporting What the Fog in any capacity.
It was impossible for me to get a key even though I instantly followed the instructions.
Seems like the keys were instantly gone and they're just saying to try later/keys are left to get sign-ups for BHVR accounts.
Honestly the thing stopping me from buying this game is how buggy DBD has been over the years. I don't trust buying a different game from them. It's the reason I didn't buy Meet Your Maker. I was going to give it a try with a free code and I am bummed I didn't get one, but not bummed enough to give them 5 dollars.
Wait, update. I got a code. I hit refresh one more time and now it shows a code for me instead saying there are no more codes or saying to click next to get a code. I guess keep trying if you want a code.
What is frustrating is that I felt like it was worded in a way where it was like if you ALREADY have a bhvr account, which I did, you'd get one automatically, and people who were signing up might get a chance for it. But I won't be supporting it either.
edit: every time I refresh the page either doesn’t load, loads and the keys are out or it allows me to try to claim it. I put in my email, check the boxes and hit continue and the dialog closes. Gonna try a bit longer.
edit 2: finally got my key, but I still feel like this maybe should have been planned better, at least scale their resources on aws/azure/whatever which would have probably mitigated these issues.
Nice.
I can't check again until after work :(
I thought the forums account was a BHVR account but apparently not. Seems the dropdown list for selecting a country isn't working, even when the page does load. So I can't make one. Hopefully they fix soon.
I was sat here constantly refreshing my browser and I still missed out on a free key, anyway.
But I'm glad somebody here got the game.
Edit: I got a key!
I hope there are plenty left for the rest of you, but keep trying if you're able, because there might still be some keys left.
I got even further….linked my steam account and all and still no code.
The site is broken:
After the about 40 minutes it took to finally reach the link, the keys were gone.
There is no direct way to delete the account so I plan to delete the associated mailbox instead.
I got a code but i spammed refresh a lot across different tabs and i kept trying to claim a key even though it said they ran out. Managed to get one about 15 mins ago.
Got one right now, i think the servers were bugged.
I can't get past Step 1. Frustrating process.
nah I just paid the $5 on steam. Didn’t want the aggravation 🤣
Maybe try again because I just tried now several hours after this post was made and I got a free copy
i got it. And i could only even try to get it after the stream ended, because of work and stuff, so… maybe try again everyone, might work
I can log in but every time I click on "Discover more" it loads into nothingness. And that's it. Kinda disappointing :x
Okay so I just tried it and after it flashed a quick notice that keys were out, it gave me a key anyway. So I guess there are still some available.
I'll tell you who didn't get keys!
Console players 🙃
Console players should have the same chances of getting the free keys as the PC players. Console players couldn’t buy the game tho cuz it’s only on steam as of now, which is sucky.
It says an error has occurred whenever I click continue T_T
There are lots of keys left! We are currently investigating the issues with claiming on the website.
are the keys limited though? Or is everyone that has a BHVR account and accepts the terms supposed to get a key?
(I got mine already btw)
I can't get past the screen I posted T_T
Congrats, though :D
To MANY MANY MANY, we are NOWHERE near the cap! <3
This is what I mean though, the fact we don't even have access is a disgrace
If you have received an error, can you try again? <3 The codes should be working now.
I got mine.
It's still not working. Every time I click on Discover More, there is nothing loading and I have to completely reload the website because the whole UI is missing.
I still have the same problem as Raccoon. It just says error during step 1.
😑
I can't get past step 1 either. When I check both boxes and click continue it comes up with the following error….
Still unable to proceed after Step 1.
Same, still.
Just worked for me
