I know this is bugged at the moment. I can run the game through the .exe but I do not have my frontier account key to play they game since I purchased off the Oculus store. How can I retrieve this key so I can make/link a frontier account.

Surely the home version requires you to create a Frontier Account... This a MMO... How will you log in without your account? Unless they made the Home Version offline only

Yes, I am guessing you are prompted to once launched from Oculus home. I have not received my headset yet so can not launch the game that way. The "desktop mode" is bugged at the moment if you do not have a headset plugged in. I went ahead and made a frontier account from their website but do not have a key to active Elite Dangerous which I just purchased off Oculus.I just want to know if there is a way to get my key so I can activate my frontier account.

To avoid things like this with major titles, would it be best to buy everything on Steam vs the store?
