his tweets about how the beta invites are going out, and how the servers are filling up with players. And yet my email box is empty :(

For the record he's talking about the EU server they have been trying to get going:

Went to see what you were talking about and, oh, the EU server is up.

Now the EU players can stop bitching about not getting on the US server and start bitching about how they're not getting on the EU server.

I so want in. I dropped almost 300 for PS2. Not too much really, but a lot to drop all at once for one thing.

I think he's referring to computer upgrades.

You guys think it's just for upgrades? Maybe he is saving up his Station Cash to put Higby Hair on his helmet. I hear that's going to be hella expensive. Almost as much as a monicle...

What's all this talk of Beta? Did they finally confirm the tech test is phase one of the Beta?

I am soooo wanting to test out Beta! Not necessarily to kill so much as to explore the absolutely awesome engine, and artwork that has been done.

Nothing that some buttering up can't help, eh?

Ok, seriously, I want my Beta! I wish they had a smiley that was like Skype's headbang!

Funny how that's true.. At least when it's soon you dont usually have to be jaelous to other players :D Now that it's "now" and some people are already enjoying and we're left out, it's much worse! :D

I have to RMA my Vertex fucking 2 SSD back to OCZ.

Almost. I could lie about my PC specs with a better idea of what they're looking for... who the hell still uses Vista besides myself anyway?

But ah... if I'm in before August, technically SOE will have kept their word. There are not a whole lot of days left in July.

The most painful thing for me is watching that jackass stream PS2 beta while he stuffs his face on his webcam. He's totally violating the NDA, and never played PS1, yet he's still playing and streaming... Not sure if I am allowed to post the link? Hamma?

Kran De Loy
2012-07-20, 10:51 AM
Definitely not allowed to post the link.

Basically you gotta think of it like anything that violates NDA that gets posted on these forums Hamma has to take responsibility for in some way. So just don't post them so he and the rest of the mods don't have to worry about that bag of headaches.

Better yet, PM his stream link to Hamma or RadarX, or email it to SOE or Higby directly and get the guy banned. That would make all of us not in beta yet feel a bit better, and free up a spot for a non-douche.

Yeah, I'm usually a really patient guy, I've never paid this much attention to a game thats still in beta or signed up to a forum for one.

I have never been this geared up about a video game , I think it's just the nostalgia and great memories from the first one.

It's also been a long time since we've seen anyone pushing the boundaries of what games can do again. It's been copy-paste games for the past 5 years.
