So I finally purchased Alpha Squad - Page 2

It was a crappy way of doing it imo. Especially considering that they where going around saying that PS1 vets would have first pick at reserving their names which ultimately ended up being buy our Alpha pack.

Oh stop, you were hardly the first to suggest it.

I'm glad I purchased it. I think I got a lot of bang for my buck. In addition, I think it'll be awful cool to be able to have a unique title (Founder) three or four years down the road.

When do you get to register your name?

I would buy the alpha squad but i'm just thinking there may be a 2x or 3x cash sale for black Friday

So show does the name reservation work?

Hamma · 2012-10-29, 09:43 PM

They will be sending an e-mail about it so there's still time to purchase Alpha Squad.

I'm sure it will be a web form of some sort.

They're opening up the site to allow registration at 7am Pacific on Monday Nov 5, according to Smed's Twitter.

I'm really not sure about the alpha pack. I do intend to spend some money on weapon unlocks after launch, but I'm really not caring about XP boosts, titles, camo etc.

How does the 12 free unlocks actually work? Can you choose which weapons to unlock?

Rat · 2012-11-01, 09:52 AM

You dont get to chose which weps, there is a list of what you get out there somewhere. but the cool thing is, I am pretty sure you get all of these unlocks on all of the servers you play on with the account you have Alpha Squad on.

Thanks Rat.

Can anyone post a link to the list?
