A lot of you are missing the point (if not, you're not doing a good job of conveying that). Many people are frustrated because the devs have been telling us beta will be soon. For probably half a year or so, their statements have simply been wrong. To add to that, no one is certain how long this tech test will last. They have said 1-2 weeks, but they also said the beta would be within 1-2 weeks during E3. I simply cannot really trust their statements any longer. I, as well as other users, have the right to be upset because we are being mislead and, quite literally, lied to.
However, if you did not get into the tech test for whatever reason and are upset about that, you should certainly get over it. So the point of my post? Stop saying EVERYONE that is complaining is self-entitled or what else. |

Looking at it a second way: All the above is still true, and it is still frustrating, but guess what? creating a high expense, large team, innovative game is probably quite frustrating process rife with setbacks. I would wager this is why many companies do not put forth the level of transparency that SOE has been so kind to give. When you have a significant group of the development team, not even PR, but coders, designers, etc, interacting on an almost daily basis with the community inconsistencies in what is said will occur. I think we vets have already enjoyed a very privileged experience. Likely, the reason the development has been so open is because this community of PS1 players existed in the first place, and they felt the need to share their progress. Unfortunately, the more they share and try to tell us about future developments, the more some people will display disappointment and anger when that information pipeline slows down, or things get moved around. So lets just be happy that the game we have all chose to become extremely hyped and hopeful for is also one that has bred an incredibly outreaching development team. I would call that, and the eventual beta access privilege enough. Last edited by Lythca Frost; 2012-07-15 at 02:34 AM. |

I'm willing to deal with it, as I've never been excited enough about a game to sign up for Beta before. So far, it sounds like this is par for the course on Beta drama. Last edited by Sephirex; 2012-07-15 at 02:39 AM. |

Come on man! These guys have given us 10x more data and interaction then any other dev team I know of. With all of this great interaction almost every other question they got was "When is beta!!!!". They put up with that and never gave us a date because of people like you. I am so happy these guys are taking the time to make this game epic and use it's full potential! Have some patience and it is going to rewarded with the best game ever made! |

I'm sorry that you are butt hurt about not getting into the first wave of beta but your sense of entitlement for a game that you haven't paid a dime for is a little ridiculous. |

i am probably fueling this fire. but something is kind of bothering me. so we are all hyped about this beta and then we get told one thing... then another... and another... and another... and then this tech test is taking too long... and then people are upset with this only be a US based tech test... what i dont get is why you are all upset over a beta invite and not looking at the positive points we have. like this game is still alive and still will be released. its not like hey were testing and will release in 2 years or die like Warhammer 40k Dark Millennium Online. So what if i dont get into the beta or in the tech test. Its not the final product and guess what its not like we are paying for this. i am a PS1 vet and had gotten a code from PC Gamer Magazine and a code from FB. doesnt mean i deserve that spot or im going to get it for sure. im just happy this game is still under way and not being dropped because of conflicts or money issues.
just my two cents |

When I read things like the above I cant help but assume they have never worked in IT. I have been up until 2 in the morning, working on a build that was due to be released 4 hours later but cant due to a show stopper. I promise you that the system I work on is far more important than PS2, at least financially. You make a target but sometimes it cannot be hit due to a variety of factors. Luckily the PS2 devs get the opportunity to push dates back then they come up against issues, it causes tears in forums such as this but ultimately it is better for the game. In other words, suck it up. |

i did not get a invite but all that means i have more time to play Planetside before every one leaves to play PS2. So just relax and play planetside untill you can get into PS2.

Just ignore the one or two spoilt little pricks who think they're entitled to it all. |
