he isnt lying it really is open 24/7 now and i know this cause there is another group of gamers with a few of us in the beta where we do show pics from the beta and such to each other and they just told us about it

Well, I can host any anonymous pictures within reason . . . especially, for instance, if the words 'planetside internal beta' or whatever are grayed out when they're sent to me.

I wouldn't otherwise . . . but honestly, they're opening the floodgates now. 24/7 beta, more testers online, and a hopefuly release date of May 19 . . . they REALLY need to open it up, so most likely it will only be a couple of weeks until open beta anyways.

nvm

Come on, man.

This is your chance to get this shit out there.

Might not be long before they trace your IP and slap you with a Cease and Desist (a Stop Doing That, which won't hurt you but will let them hurt you easily if you do send the screens). But if you send them now . . .

this is exciting waiting to see if its true or not. man i wish i was in beta.i bet open beta is soo close if this is true

It's total, unedited bullshit. I want details or screenshots.

mr_luc · 2003-03-22, 10:49 PM

I dunno.

It is definitely going to be the next step, and necessary if they want REAL playtests. I really think that, when it comes to testing, Dave doesn't quite understand the internet/gamer mentality.

I dunno, someone I know that is in beta says that they are going to have servers open 24/7 as well soon though he didn't mention if they were already being left up 24/7.

TRscpd · 2003-03-22, 11:14 PM

servers are open 24/7 and as for open beta i do not know.. but i can tell you what i think is going to happen

this is what i think servers are up 24/7 1 week or 2 week later open beta is announcement saying they well pick whoever blah blah whatever thats what i think is going to happen..

dtjohnson · 2003-03-22, 11:17 PM

ask him if beta is going to be only 1 continent or all of them..would seem kinda wierd to d/l the whole game since it is f'in massive

basically i am curious to what lands will we play on while in open beta

edit: now that i think about it...we would pretty much need the whole world to test effectively

TRscpd · 2003-03-22, 11:29 PM

told my friend to get some screens of him jumping out of a drop ship

Dear developers:

If you applied to beta, and signed an NDA, and host images from the same beta, I would warn you that I bet legal action could be taken against you...

TRscpd · 2003-03-23, 03:06 AM

am not in beta my friend is so am ok for showing the screen shots he cant show them but i can cuz i am not a beta tester

and even if they find out and shit and try to take action they cant do sh*it to me.. cuz all i can say is i took them off his PC

But he could screw you for giving away stuff that screwed him, he got the right to do that. And if ya copyed the game wich i believe is illegal, ya can just get screwed.
