Beta testing is a critically important part of our development cycle on this project, we may be asking you to only play on tanks for a play session, or only play aircraft. We are doing true beta testing, not just a game demo and we implore those of you who are invited to understand and respect that. Things will break, the server will be unavailable sometimes, we will cancel scheduled tests when we find something that breaks before the test starts. All of this will help us make a better final game.

I think I'm done trying to get a key... At least through Twitter.
I feel dumb using Twitter and pathetic for begging to a faceless responseless @.

Especially since half the time they'd just send keys publicly and they would be in use within seconds. These social media promotions need to die.

Welp, Reagle had it right. However seeing as the invites are going to be spaced out it still may be some weeks before most of us get in. Gadzooks I hope not.
And yes, come join Catch 22 and we'll steamroll over all the NC and VS chode munching scum! Just look at my tagline. TB said it best about the NC!

Gotta say on this free play in PS1, the battles don't feel epic anymore.
Not so many vehicles, and all the inside combat is shooting people in the back as they strafe in front of you in the lag.
It's kind of like watching cats being wrangled in most places. People all over the place and everyone sucking because any vehicles you do have are undermanned or people are going different directions.
I really hope PS2 makes the whole interface a little better...the chat system is grossly inadequate in PS1 for what needs to be done in any given fight.

" They also explain that unlike many "betas," they are actually using this testing session to improve the game, not just promote it:"
Love that, especially if true.
Imagine the game actually being good enough one day to promote itself. You don't have to try and hook a bunch of suckers or early adopters up front, well unless you actually really do 'have to'.
But can't I pay a $150 pre-order for beta access cause I want to play the game with my friends??? /not

Just got a key, I'd join you guys but Vanu is the enemy.
People who play Vanu are the worst. I only associate with one such person, and only because she has tits. Otherwise I would not talk to said Vanu.
What faction do you folks plan on playing Trev? Could have sworn you guys were Vanu, must have been reading wrong.
My tag on here should say it all. For the Republic my friend. Tyranny, Opression and Domination. This is the Terran Motto.
or for those of you who pick shit based on how cool stuff looks. The Black and Red guys.
hehe makes sense, I played NC during my brief time in PS1, though I did always like the TR med assault chainguns, those things were boss.

As soon as I got my beta key, I ordered a Gigabyte GTX 680 OC X3. Now I'm sitting here waiting for UPS to deliver it.
When they say "kicking off this week", do they mean this week or this coming week?
