FAQ: Duke Nukem First Access Club

[Relics]

What is the First Access Club?
The Duke First Access Club gives its members unique Duke benefits, including early access to the Duke Nukem demo.

The main way to get access to the club is through the purchase of Borderlands GOTY (Game of the Year) edition. Owners can then register for the club using the First Access Key provided with their copy of Borderlands GOTY. First Access Club codes are also available by pre-ordering Duke Nukem Forever from select retailers.

Codes can be entered at http://www.dukenukem.com/access/


What about digital copies of GOTY?
Steam is also providing users with First Access keys for those who purchase the GOTY edition. Keys can be found by right clicking the game from the Steam list and selecting "View game cd keys".


How does it relate to the forum "In the Club" banner? How do I link it to my forum account?
When registering as a Club member, you'll be asked to create a Gearbox account. If you use your Gearbox Forums account name and password during registration, your forum account will automatically become part of the "club" and display the "In the Club" banner.

Does that mean the demo is out? Where do I download it?
No, the demo is not out yet. However, being part of the club entitles you to early access to the demo when it is ready.



I stuffed up the age gate and now I can't access the site.
You will need to clear your browser's cookies to enable the age gate again. Alternatively try using another web browser.



Where is the extra stuff? I registered, but I don't see any wallpapers or anything?
Once you've logged in and see the "Welcome to Duke's First Access Club" message, scroll down. The goodies are listed under the "exclusive benefits" heading, towards the bottom of the page.


I'm having another issue not covered above.

Anyone who previously bought Borderlands through Steam will be pleasantly surprised when they look at their Borderlands CD Key menu...it certainly helps to get in the club!!

[KO Gilligan]

I'd like to see them give access in a game magazine.

That's what I think SUCKS. I bought every Borderlands DLC, The day they came out, with the exception of Dr. Ned and pre-ordered Borderlands, but I don't get the code, because I have a PS3, and can't afford to buy the GotY after paying for all of the above. It kinda grinds my Gears. (See what I did there?)

Awesome, just got my key.

It's been over 24 hours and I still haven't received my "In The Club" title. Anyone help please?
