Thank you! I loved Brink, and it was kind of tragic to see it flounder so quickly because its lag caused everyone to think saying it was a crappy game made them cool.

thanks a lot, cpt. higlo!

your post sums up all the beta info we need very good!

i have a question. i don´t remember if i ever did a hardware survey for soe. and i never got the email asking me to do so, that others got 2 weeks ago.

will my priority go down if i don´t have hardware information stored in my account?
how can i update this information? didn´t find anything in my account and resubscribing to beta didn´t work. (i´m from germany)

And you are frogeting the fact some of us have work at weakends... So releasing it 24/7 is the best idea for everyone having posibility to test and give feedback.

Or atleast extended weakends like thoursday to monday.

You are forgetting that you are not entitled to anything with beta. The purpose of a beta is not to cater to you so that you get to test, the purpose of beta is that you cater to them, testing for them when you can.

Sounds perhaps rough, but the point is that none of us is entitled to anything, we have no rights at this point and we do this on their terms.

DxC · 2012-07-13, 09:27 AM

Its a privilege not a right It is down to there terms and if they all turn around and say you have to jump though this many hoops to play then a jumping you shall go!

I am curious to see the game in the stage it is now and to take part in testing I will save the playing it till launch right now its testing and seeing where I can park my galaxy!*

(*Providing I get picked to join the beta

Exactly and id think they would love to spend weakends whit their family at home! But in reality it dosent go this way they do long weaks to get the game done and have the best posible feedback.

Stop complaining about when you think the beta tests are supposed to happen. Are you people for real? Open beta will be here soon enough after closed beta and we can all help with load testing at that time. Most likely will be more open as far as times are concerned.

Yep Tech Test E-Mails today according to Smed. Which means a tiny segment of folks will be in beta very soon.

Tribu · 2012-07-13, 09:40 AM

i would, if there was any surveylink in my account, but there isn´t!

note, that your link ends with "locale=en_us" and i am from germany. maybe that´s why i don´t see any survey link.
