Why You should stop Demanding the Closed Alpha.
You pre-order clustertruck for Clustertruck, not just for TABS. Right? They didn't guarantee a fulltime access. You only get TABS pre-alpha. I find it stupid that you all pre-order an amazing game called Clustertruck just for an early access of Totally Accurate Battle Simulator. You should have expected this all of you. They never said TABS was going to be an all time access.

What if they do release the closed alpha? People will want more and beg for more. If they release the closed alpha, people will continue begging if they add a new update. It is completely ridiculous how this community has grown from a nice community of patient waiters to Beggars and demanders. Anyone who begs are really greedy to be honest. Can't you all patiently wait for the best version? Hell, they might even cancel the game because of you guys.

They were super open with the closed alpha this summer. It lead to leaks and malware being spread When they are sending out closed alpha keys they are looking to trust the people they send to. One way of doing this is sending it to people who make a majority of their living trough their youtube, or Twitch.

What they send out as a Closed Alpha is content that is not ready to be mass tested but can still be shown. They benefit from the coverage but it is also valuable as playtesting to watch youtubers play. Which is something they can't do with most testers. It is essentially a very effective way of trusting a very small group and still getting testing done.

In the end of my speech, You all pre-ordered Clustertruck for Clustertruck, not for TABS all time access. Stop being ridiculous and start supporting the devs more. I don't want to argue, or get threats. I stopped helping in here and started helping in my own group because i have been threatened time and time again. Death threats, Insults and they all discourage me. I started helping because not even landfall can keep you guys calm. Just stop.
Frequently asked questions about Special Access on Steam
This section is all about keys, preordering etc.

How can i get the steam version?
You cannot get the steam version. Only the third party off-steam executable.

How does some people and youtubers have it in their Steam libary?
They are either very popular youtubers (Jacksepticeye, Markiplier etc.) or preordered Clustertruck back in September.

Where can i get steam keys?
There are no codes just the open alpha application.

There is no reason I would want the closed alpha, other than to look at what the neon faction was.

i have the closed alpha actually.

There are these stories people make on Youtube and i rally want to know how to make them, cause they can move the enemy around like it is talking and make the units make noises, and they can still move even when all enemies are dead. So how do i make them if they are possible?

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention there is first person, you just press F in battle and the highlighted unit means who you possess, and then you just press C to toggle first/third person, Left/Right click to use their basic attacks, space for special attacks, press F again to let them attack on their own again.
