Well here is the info

Pros: Great To Hear It

Cons: Betcha you gotta be a subscriber to get the beta. There is no way hell im gonna pay for a beta when I have to pay for the retail version.

If it’s true…dirty pool.

Paying fileplanet to be a betatester for a game is just wrong.


(Svanire) #3

Had a quarterly sub for the last couple of years.

It’s paying itself off.

Just as sick as making fake beta for advertisement only. Or trying to sell a 3d engine like it was the best ever, and noone played on it yet. god knows why.

50,000 - 60,000. :shock:

It goes against every moral fiber of my being, but I’ll probably pony up the money for this. At the highest subscription level, it’s just an extra payment for WoW, and well-worth it.

Well if it is true that you have to pay to subscribe just to download the beta I just hope after somebody downloads it that they upload it to their website so us poor people can download it. :banana:

If your not being sarcastic, does anyone remember the BF2142 Beta? All they did were give out keys…


(kamikazee) #11

I thought we were talking about games here, isn’t BF2142 totally off-topic? :smiley:


(murka) #12

ah probably some bad ass haxor like razor is gonna crack the key thingy and give out betas, lol, good idea to exploit the game so early. :lol:


(igl) #13

yes, its against my moral and ethics too
too bad id, or rather activision is playing these marketing games along with EA.


(urwathrtz365) #14

Got a buddy with an account, I’ll use his. Did the same thing with Test Drive Unlimited. I stopped playing it because I suck at racing games.


(me666) #15

like allways…first fileplanet then 2 weeks later we all will get this as a test


(tom|nbk) #16

You guy’s can’t cough up a couple of quid for a subscription for one month only :? :o . Dear me.


(Joe999) #17

dear you doesn’t have principles? :roll:


(BondyBoy007) #18

the question is why should we? most of us have been around here for years and now it seems that if you pay you get preferential treatment?


(Strogg) #19

Sorry, but IMHO only a “MORON” would pay to beta test a program for a developer. hehehe The developers should be the one’s that PAY US to beta test their software or give it to the public to beta test for FREE!!! Not To Buy Subscriptions To A Website Just To Download A Beta Version Of A Program That May Or May Not Work Properly. DOH!!! :bash:

So what?, principles go out the window if you want to play this as bad as I do and it would only cost me as much as going to the cinema or elsewhere, stick your hands in your pockets and quit whining, SD, ID, Fileplanet, Activision aint your friends, there out to make money. Welcome to the business world.
