Invite not received by friend after 3+ months

[arrkjojo]

I'm sure this isn't the first post you've seen like this and I don't think it'll be the last due to how deadlock's inviting system can be. I invited my friend over 3 months ago and still nothing, we just gave up after having more than 3 people invite them to the game. Since the new update is out and we're getting these new characters they really want to play it. I didn't really know what to do from here so I decided to make a post. If any devs see this, if possible please send me a key for them, I'd love to spread the fun that deadlock is, I have 500+ hours and I just want my friend to be able to experience that too. whoever else sees this, if you have any fixes or troubleshooting that can work, please let me know too, I'll be trying whatever I can. Thank you for taking your time to read this, have a good day/night <3

Have them check this link (requires sign-in): https://store.steampowered.com/account/playtestinvites

Or from the Steam client, click the 'Manage Account' button at the top-right (it has the user's profile name on it), click 'Account details', and then check 'Gated Access Games' on the left.

We checked again and still nothing was in either playtest invites or gated access games sadly, looked both via links as well and checking in the steam client. It still says they're invited in game too. This had happened previously too, so I don't really know what to do from here.

Sorry to hear that, it's possible they may have declined the invitation the first time it was sent and when this happens I don't think there is any recourse outside of a developer manually intervening.
