Hey guys that some exciting news. I hope this guild makes it in.

Anyways EBgames is out for the money. Some branches I have been to say if their is an open beta to those that preordered and you had already done so previously that you just need your receipt.

Whether I choose to believe that or not...well its hard to decide. Im thinking about just doing it for the heck of it. Then if they try to pull something just give the other copy to my brother and get a new one myself for beta.

I have beta tested numerous games and it is a hassle...its exciting but can almost be a second job. Your enjoying it but at the same time it can be frustrating. I just havent done any big name games yet...

Some people often refer to this as "open beta", however this will not be thekind of open beta where everyone with internet access can download the game and hop in. There will be no NDA during this phase. EA Mythic is tentatively considering having everyone who pre-orders the game invited to this phase of beta. This phase will also invite winners from our big media promotions.

I got this from warhammer alliance. Here is a link to the Beta stages and FAQ.

So if you pre-ordered.. You have the best shot at getting into beta4.

that sucks..oh well

I just remember watching this guy play WoW beta and he had a program that would upload a new screenshot every 10 seconds or so. Im sure the terms of use were different but it made it fun to watch.

The agreement of an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) is required of all participants. Testers must be 18 and over. All participants must abide by a code of conduct. Should an individual violate this code, the guild to which that player belongs will be removed from the beta test.

i already know i won't be in beta until they get into making expansion since i'm still under 18, so requiem has a point.

edit- will be 18 on 10/16/08

I started programming games back in highschool in my programming class, well that and 3D volumetric screensavers. Unfortunately I failed the class. It wasn't because I was doing those creative things, it's because I was doing those things and not the homework mwahaha! Pfft.. making databases. I'd rather be making games.
