Hello Rukari and the rest of the Microsoft Studio / Iron Galaxy Team
I was wondering if there is a possibility for me to be added to the early access list for Shadow Lords mode.
I would love to help out and test and provide feedback for Shadow Lords mode. I am big fan of the game.
Also I thought instead of multiple users creating threads for requesting access, this would be just have one thread for requests,
fingers crossed for having access next week 
Well, they said that EVO attendees will be considered first. They did say they intend to have a LOT of players in early access phase of the mode, and being a forum participant will likely help your odds, especially with being a regular.
That said, I donāt really know if theyāll take requests, though I guess it doesnāt hurt to at least ask.
Just follow on the forums, participate in the conversation, be helpful and courteous to others, and Iām willing to bet youāll have your chance. I doubt there will be any reason for anyone to beg. Besides, the full version release is only next month.
Unfortunately it does fall the exact same day as Destinyās Rise of Iron expansion.
It would be nice if they took at look at in-game stats such as achievements, hours played, in-game levels across characters, etc as that would be a good indicator of those willing to put in time, as they are doing this to get early feedback.
Random giveaways is fine if that is what they decide, but often people get excited for beta codes just because it sounds cool, but donāt actually play or contribute feedback.
Good point, very nice suggestion. I agree 
^^
This.
But just in case the powers that be are watching, Iād be open to such a thing. I feel like a beggar, but I can live with it.
Iām just surprised that the OP didnāt tag Rukari or the devsā¦
I would love to try it out early as well. I could leave feedback on this site everyday detailing my expiernces. I donāt do youtube videos or stream though if thats a requirement I wonāt be eligible but otherwise I am good lol
From what I understand theyāve already got a lot of community members on board for the beta, been sending private messages & such to gather people. I mean sure it doesnāt hurt to ask, but as much effort as itās likely been taking to gather names & such my guess is the window to be adding anyone else is probably closed.
This is just my lousy prediction thoughā¦donāt take it as the final word.
Theyāre like Ninjas, they observe without being seen or summoned.
Chances are they know alreadyā¦
Lemme just be clear here how this is going to work (from what Iāve been told):
The Shadow Lords mode will be unlocked by key codes that IG/MS will be sending out to KI players in waves. All those who signed up at EVO will be the first to receive codes (bwahaha) but after that IG/MS will start sending out codes to the rest of the fanbase. Rukari said on todayās stream that they expect to have over one hundred participants by the time they stop giving out codes.
Now, I signed up at EVO and have been sent a message a few weeks ago about this, so I know Iām already in the running. What I DONāT know is how IG/MS will send out the codes/pick the players from. Twitter? Email? Forums? All of the above? Not sure, but I guess weāll see.
Iād like to get in on it. Iām not gonna lie, it would be nice to get the VIP treatment once for something like this. Iād put my run of Fallout 4 on hold just to do the Shadow Lords beta. It seems like it would be cool to get to try that out and leave some input.
That said, I wonāt be disappointed if I have to wait a little longer. I couldāve sworn though that at some event they said hundreds of players, not just a hundred, like the EVO announcement or something. I mean the one on the first day of pools play, not the Eyedol reveal.
Fingers crossed.
Hello Iron Galaxy bros, Iād like to provide feedback for Shadow Lords!
There are times where you (the community) will simply a process that actually takes an incredible amount and time, resources, and people to complete, and other times where you imagine that something rather simple is carried out by the entire combined staff of Iron Galaxy & Microsoft in tandem.
This time things are really simple. Santa Rukari is coming to town with a giant spreadsheet filled with codes. How will he distribute them? Well, I am still working on that, so hopefully lap-sitting is not involved for everyoneās sake.
I would definitely be down for some Shadow lords early access action..
LMAO Im not sitting on your lap! but I do want the early access code.
I would give feedback on a weekly basis.
Yup, I was rightā¦I made a lousy prediction.

Sorry for beating you to the punch lol
No beating me to the punch. Sometimes I like to trickle information out there and let you all find it on your own!
Oh hell yeah!
fingers crossed, hoping to be chosen
Signed, sealed and delivered.
Tho santa @rukizzel Iāve been on the good list this year ā¦I think.
