Open Beta Information
Many of you have received an email indicating your acceptance into our Open Beta. This email directed you to a link asking for your shipping information. It is normal, however, that the official PlanetSide BETA website is NOT accessible to you at this time. In fact, it will state "Not a Beta Member." We understand this is causing some confusion, but rest assured, if you submitted your shipping address to us, you will be getting into Open Beta in the coming days. We anticipate opening the beta site at about the same time as the arrival of the Beta Discs into your hands, at which time, the official PlanetSide BETA website will be fully accessible. If you have received your Open Beta email, but have NOT submitted your shipping info per the instructions, please do so now, otherwise, we will not be able to admit you into the PlanetSide beta test.

The plan is for us to have the discs just before Open Beta becomes official. That's the "plan" anyway.

Also, I found this in a thread on the main board concerning those people that still have not received emails, but have access to the beta site. Hope this is helpful, because I know that are at least a couple of you:

There had been information released on the issue that allowed some open beta testers to access the beta site, which should currently be open only to exclusive beta testers. This was an error and was corrected. Both I and SmokeJumper had commented on it here in the forums.
We have tried to clarify your status as an exclusive or open beta testers through the sticky post entitled Details on the PlanetSide Beta. We ask you read your email carefully to determine which phase of the beta you are in. If it is open, you will not be able to access the beta site until after the beta CD's have shipped. If it is exclusive, you should have access to the beta site.

If you have any big questions, you might want to head over to the official boards. It seems like Spork is doing his best to answer everyones questions.

Somebody just posted a quote supposedly by Sporkfire on the official board saying discs are being printed and distributed either this week or next week, can anyone confirm? I'll get the link.

Hopefully this will clear up some things for the many confused players.

Actually it doesn't because I am still in limbo big time. I wrote a big post about it here http://boards.station.sony.com/ubb/betapls/Forum8/HTML/000496.html (I'm AgentZ95)

Basically I have been acepted and I should have recieved an e-mail yet I can't submit my shipping info etc. Really confused, and these official posts aren't really giving me straight answers.

At the beta status page, it's says I've been accepted. I never received an e-mail and know almost for certain that it wasn't deleted by accident. I've sent the beta team an e-mail to a couple different locations and still haven't heard from them. Anyone have any suggestions?

Are you able to access the beta site? If you are, then you are not alone, and you might want to sign your name in this thread:

http://boards.station.sony.com/ubb/planetside/Forum2/HTML/005322.html

If you are unable to access the beta site, it could be that your email is in queue, and you could receive it in the next few days. But if you are part of the open beta, all you need to do is fill out your address. To do so, use this link:

http://planetside.station.sony.com/beta_registration/beta_address_form.jsp

This link has been posted on the official boards, and Sporkfire said it is ok to fill it out, if you are in.
