Got my email this morning too. Will download later.

its a rather hefty 13.8 gigs

Is that some kind of payed-alpha thing? Or a "real" alpha?

just applied to be in it I havent paid anything for it, pretty happy as im really on the fence on this game at the moment.

@2headedninja: A little from column A, a little from column B, I think. Here's how I got in: Played Borderlands The Pre-sequel for two hours...

Had to fill out the Alpha forms like everyone else but I got a code from Playfire/GMG after playing Borderlands which meant I wouldn't have to wait for an invite.

Thats good to hear ... I remember filling the alpha thing on their website a while ago, so there is a chance I guess :)

If you download the Curse Voice client they give you a code when you make an account and login, not sure if its still generating codes but I read this post and got mine this way. I already had a curse login, I used it with the voice chat client and clicked a button to get a code, then you put that code into the alpha sign up page, but this was about 2 days ago, and keep in mind I didnt get my code until last night, so it might take awhile if you're just signing up now.

I played the last Alpha they did and I got an email for this one. I got it preloaded so I plan on playing it when it goes live tomorrow.
