News: Planetside 2 beta plans

[Dagron]

TMI, MonsterBone... TMI.

Well the planetside day has finished. So if we hear any more info today, it'll be soon.

otherwise tomorrow.

[QuantumMechanic]

It sounds like they are pretty busy with the SOE community night event, which is still going to go on for another few hours (until 9pm). So no surprise that today is a slow news day.

Personally I was hoping (wishing) for another stream, but oh well.

[Minigun]

I think people are in tech testing right now. The masses probably will not get anymore information until Monday.

The DL works now. It takes you to a log in and if you log in it says you have already signed up for beta. http://www.planetside2.com/download

[BarrelRoll]

The download button on planetside2.com/download works! It sent me to a login page!

You know what I mean. It doesn't just 404 you now.

[DirtyBird]

Not sure what other information people are expecting to get.
The thread below was a sticky for at least a week and clearly states the beta begun on July 12th so thats all there is to it.
Its got the answers to all your questions.
Wouldnt have been a sticky if it wasnt true.

For some reason its been locked tho?

Any other info regarding the beta now allegedly goes against the NDA.

That was still speculation. Higby promised to cut his hair when people were going to be let in and everyone immediately thought OMG BETA. I don't blame them for thinking that, but it just didn't work out.

EDIT: The thread is locked because this thread now exists and there is no need for that one you posted. This one's information supersedes basi's.

I just hate being left in the dark. The very LEAST they could do is tweet when / if they are sending out keys today and if they have already they could tweet that they already have and no more would be coming our way.

If they can tweet meaningless crap all day they could at least spare a few minutes to tweet something we care about hearing more of.

What I'd like to know is...

How many people are tech testing?

Will more keys go out every day from this point on... or for the tech test was it a one shot deal with invites sent out?

Simple questions to answer. Simple request to make of them.

[The Admiral]

Honestly its already 6 P.M. so im starting doubt that anything at all is going to happen today.

It's hard for them to answer questions because they have press regulations that hinder the flow information to us.

Where has this sense of entitlement came from?

It's a test, they will test when they need to test you got it? It's not just another 'lolbeta'.
