Aye, they be kids and this thread screams of maturity.

But in all seriousness, its a tech test, they promised that when the real deal (i.e. CBT) starts, PS1 players get the first priority, and that's it. There's not much to discuss about that. Tech test doesn't equal a proper closed beta test, its just a small stress test and a hardware check. I don't see how someone doesnt understand that if your specs aren't suitable / required for testing = you aren't in the tech test, period.

This thread is ADULT AS ****

For a guy who hates useless threads you sure made a doozie

I haven't been around the forums for the last couple of days but I have seen just as many "I think the vets should be this way", "I think vets should stop this" threads going around as well.

Also vets get in first! I am not sure if that's what you are mad about but it seems like it is to me.

This tech test is technically a beta. Usually betas involve external play testers, and indicate the game is in a mostly playable state.

If they wanted to focus on aerial combat, they could call it an aerial combat test. Doesn't change that it's still an external pre-release test, which is what beta essentially is.

Really wish people would stop taking what the test is called at face value like small children would. It's not like calling it an actual beta would change SOE's invite priorities for the test, it would just make the vets even more livid. Now that is a good reason to call it a tech test: they can circumvent the "vet/key" priorities while lessening the number of flamers.

There really was no reason they couldn't prioritize vets with the specs they were looking for unless there simply weren't enough of us and they were filling in the gaps with people outside the priority list, which is entirely possible, and thus impossible for us to refute. But thinking calling it a tech test nullifies everyone's complaints? That's just being gullible. Those complaining are just raging because they're currently ill-informed, as is everyone else outside of SOE's offices.

I can't even say if my setup was much of a concern. I use a 200 series card on Vista with 4 gigs of ram. For all we (I) know, that was something they already know will work, or enough other vets had that I simply got unlucky when the attention turned towards that pool.

Essentially, people are reading between the lines and asking the why's but not having enough hard answers/evidence to implicate SOE on being insincere.

If my history with gaming forums is anything to go by, when people don't understand, they get angry. Without fail. I'll just wait for beta and keep praying for an early invite.

Lets get something straight. Not all vets are QQing. Many vets are silent on the matter.

I'm a vet and, quite frankly, I don't care.

When a sequel to a game is made,the first to go in beta should be the veterans PERIOD!

PS:I am not a ps1 veteran myself,but i am a veteran of several other games and i know how it feels to have the hardcore fan base rejected and ignored,while trying to please the masses of COD players.

So, if you had 500 slots for a tech test for people running an i7 with 4 gigs 2133 ddr3 on a 1 year old nivida. And you only had 400 vets with those requirements. Are you saying the other 100 slots should just go empty? You people and your stupidity amaze me. If I ever start feeling down all I have to do is log on an read about ps people bitching about vet status and cod kiddies. Idiots every last on of you. If vets system requirements could meet every need then great. Obviously they can't so others at brought in.

Uh...

I don't want to be a dick and pick nits, but no. In the software development world the tech/stress/whatever test is for ironing out bugs that will stop the application from *working.* Hardware compatibility issues. Software configuration issues. Stuff like that.

Betas that involve the user base are for ironing out bugs that impact the user experience. Without the first, the second cannot occur. The longer the first goes on, the better the second will go and the more polished the finished app.

And as long as we're on the topic, the thing that **** up software development most is fucking feature bloat. So when we get into beta and start yelling for more stuff or different functionality, we need to be exceedingly careful what we ask for.

[RAWR!] I AM SICK OF PEOPLE STARTING THREADS COMPLAINING ABOUT PEOPLE THAT STARTED OTHER THREADS, OR BECAUSE THEIR THREADS DIDN'T GENERATE THE EXPECTED ADULATION! [/RAWR!]

Seriously... everybody... take a fucking chill pill. You guys are wound up tighter than a... well, I was about to make an inappropriate and offensive analogy, that while humorous, would likely result in my ban. That said, the beta is only a few more days! Be patient, my padawans!

Did we really need a thread saying this?.

No. We didn't. Yet, here we are.

Yes, but you are not a douche. That is a big difference :)

I think that anyone who has created a thread to either complain that others have gotten in before them, or have created spam threads complaining about people complaining about not getting in, should be the last people to get in at the end of Open Beta.
