I looked through the Beta forum here and didn't see any mention of it even though the steam forums are blowing up over this issue. I downloaded and played the open beta yesterday for several hours. After finishing my session, I went and pre-ordered the game. Now whenever I launch the game through steam I get an error saying "Failed to contact Key Server". When I attempt to bypass steam and launch it through uPlay, it asks me for an activation code.... I haven't found anyone with a work around but I know that almost everyone who pre-ordered the game after playing the open beta is having the same issue.
