lolol

Whoa, new info and new alpha testers! Grats! So now we can expect SE to throw you guys into new servers and hope shit doesn't hit the fan like previous server tests. Also this has me intrigued...

If possible?? Take part of testing on Windows PC? Does this mean that ps3 users will partake in testing in both windows platform and ps3 when they are chosen?

It only translates as: If you got a strong enough PC to run the game then apply for the PC version using a different account to play right now.

The only time it's ever felt right to make one of these stupid things.

^ This. Well maybe the bf got in. I'll wait for him to wake up before pestering him to check his email.

Wasn't the invitations for the first Alpha phase sent out in waves, or am I just imagining things out of disappointment in not being invited?

[Kuya]

Thank goodness that they're trying to increase the combat pace, since it seems so slow.

[Kyrra]

What do the email headers look like for this email?

They sent out the intial batch (at which point I spent an afternoon hammering my inbox in a wave of growing disappointment), then sent out the premier site additional tester invites about a week or so later (at which point I had a joyful and completely unexpected moment when opening my inbox).

People saw the second batch incoming as more "Tester 123" accounts had been added to the alpha forums I believe - but that's going on hearsay.

No email here

Same, no email but staying optimistic.

[Kyrra]

Also guys... this email doesn't have any NDA statement on it that I'm seeing...

EDIT: Nevermind, they just worded it weirdly.

- The release of information pertaining to the Alpha Test to sourcesother than the Tester Site forum is strictly prohibited. Schedules forthe public release of information will be announced at a later date.Until then, all information should be treated as confidential.

This is the only thing that worries me.

Dude you know it, back on topic.


I hope they let you play PS3 Beta even if you got selected for the PC Beta as I can't afford a new laptop at the moment and this one is just under the current alpha's specs by like .2ghz on the processor.
