if you preorder you get access to the spf and you get a code you can use with whichever alpha you download, I think that you can request that they give you a steam download, or normal download or w/e but of course we're not at that point yet still downloading alphas from spf.
Another one who pre-ordered before signing up for the forum . I'm getting "You do not have the required permissions to read topics within this forum." when trying SPF

That was actually meant to refer to when we would start giving our weekly alphas to preorderers. Back then we had barely started officially started Wolfire.
We released the first alpha November 2nd, 2008. But yeah, it is very hard to predict when the game will be finished and our initial estimates were way too optimistic.
