If you aren't worried in the least, how come you bothered to talk to one of those useless support agents. Beats me Laughing

They already said numerous times everywhere that vets will be activated with priority above everyone else, and it doesn't matter what one of the usual know-nothing support drones said.

so stupid, a beta key is not a beta key in this game. Its just a extra chance to get in the game. (since I entered a key and nothing happens) (weeks ago)

I wasnt PS 1 vet or anything , yet I received technical beta access after completing hardware survey . I suppose they are choosing based on hardware configurations.
They are focusing on optimizing stuff for mid-range atm , probably not so interested in people with uber computers like some of you guys got Razz.

Yeah, same here but it's because of the lack of new maps. The Close Derpers release didn't help in the least. But I'm very hyped about the Armored Kill DLC, both maps shown so far look excellent. Here's hoping they show the other two in a few weeks at Gamescon.

In the meantime, Planetside 2will be more than enough for my multiplayer cravings Razz

Indeed! I don't even own CQ Laughing , but hopefully Planetside now (well, maybe) and AK in September should give us the boost of enthusiasm that we need Very Happy.

Yeah, Planetside 2 (assuming they get the shooting feel right and it's not a complete mess at release) should be a very long term kind of game. Very Happy I always knew that while Battlefield 3 was great fun and provided lots of gameplay content, it was going to get stale eventually.


Yup I really expect it to last quite a while as well. Think I'll join a large outfit too, just to be able to coordinate attacks and capture points without having to work together with random people you can't really rely on... Which is one possible negative point of it being F2P, the amount of teamkillers and other noobs there will be on your team..

This can't come soon enough. I'm so fucking sick of Tribes. It's pretty much just an anger inducing mess to me right now. I'm tired of it and I'm tired of its playerbase and of its problems.

Probably good idea to provide a source: https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/230014114590760963
So this friday or next week on monday. Apparently, some issue cropped up that now requires fixing and testing. Good news though is that various tweets from both the official PlanetSide 2 Twitter account as well as John Smedley's Twitter account hint at a rather large beta test, which means more people with early access keys will be allowed into the beta right from the get go Very Happy .

Same. Tribes has been a laggy mess since two patches ago and I'm fed up with it.

And you expect PS2 to be different how? I mean it's gonna be a great game once it's polished for sure. But you'll see if you get to the beta soon. Or perhaps not if they fix the major issues and it's gonna be a lot better before the beta begins. Who knows, everything is possible, right?

I think it's for the best as there are several "clandestine" but reliable reports of annoying performance issues even with strong setups (core i7, GTX 560 etc.).

I have no expectations seeing as I don't intend on playing the beta.

I was agreeing with him on the state of Tribes.

I think it's clear by now that they definitely find enjoyment in teasing people. Let's hope we'll be able to play it before December Laughing

Seems they are going ahead with the splitting of the EU/US players. Now they require EU players to transfer their stuff to the EU provider completely, starting with DCUO.

No. Prosiebensat1, some german hosting company, will be the publishers/duderinos who take care of the EU servers.

So, is the answer to my question:

"No, you won't be able to play in both US and EU servers"

or

"No, that's not what zmed meant"

?

They said at one point that we will be able to play on both regions, but now this seems dubious.

There are posts on the PSU forum about having separate purchases, possible region exclusive content, etc. Not to mention that one guy who already transferred reported the 1$->1euro bullshit.

Now it's wait and see, but I'm skeptical about this thing turning out good.
