Curse.com is giving away keys for a limited time just for registering at:

http://www.curse.com/betas/guild-wars-2

Original thanks goes to RFD member torsellor07, I thought this was worthy of a post in the hot deals section since people are charging about $5 for beta access during the weekend.

Enjoy and register fast!

Update: Just to let people know, this is for access during the last beta weekend before release starting on the 20th.

The server is taking a beating because of this post and a reddit post. Just keep trying and it will go through eventually.

Here's what I get after making username:

Server Error

502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server.
There is a problem with the page you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. When the Web server (while acting as a gateway or proxy) contacted the upstream content server, it received an invalid response from the content server.

I'm getting 502...

The important thing is we have keys. Just try to register your account a bit later when the volume goes down.

It says it only works from "July 20th through July 22nd"? That kind of sucks if it's true...

It's a weekend beta event, according to you it's not a hot deal so you don't have to bother. However for those of us who want to try the beta before pre-ordering the game this is great.

Yep!

I don't know about you, but I have this game pre-ordered from BB's E3 event. Good idea to try it out before I make a decision on whether I want it or not (wish I had tried the D3 beta before I purchased it...)

I am pretty sure the only other way to get an early Beta access key was ordering it from EB, on the GW2 website it said that EB was the only authorized dealer for the early beta access keys in Canada.

So yeah this is pretty hot imho.

I was getting the same error, it doesn't consume the key.
I just kept refreshing like suggested and it worked

Haha so true about D3, such a waste but at least I only traded 2 games for it.

I believe once you 'see' a key, it's yours. You can register with arena net after.

Are you refreshing the page where you got the error or going back to the previous page and re-fill your info?

We're sorry! No Prizes Remaining.

Was really hoping to get one of these, been wanting to try this out to decide on if I want to buy it or not. Really wish they would have an open public beta weekend like D3 did.
