Man I really want to play this game but my Beta Status is still pending. Its been a couple weeks now. One of my friends who applied days after me has been accepted already.
Is it possible to answer the question wrong and not be accepted?

Thanks, TrimMan

Hi,

I only applied recently but for some reason its saying 22 out of 23 stages complete, afaik I didn't miss any questions but I guess this means I might miss out on beta too ^_^

Still you never know, so good luck to you....to the both of us!

I have this cynical suspicion that if you say you intend on buying one of the founder things they wont acept you because they know you already got you 0_0

Unless you are one of the conspiracy theory members on this board who don't understand marketing the answer is no, there is no question you can answer wrong.

That being said for your computer specs it is quite likely that they are trying to mix up various degrees of computers. Most betas use a pretty random mix of high tier, low tier and medium tier systems so it's not like there is a way you can "weight" your profile.

Anyone that tells you their is a way is just speculating.

I've been signed up since i saw the closed beta signup (and i'm at 100%). I don't think they're just selecting people on how long they've been here. probably very likely doing it by random, or by select system requirements they want to get tested first.

I believe this is absolutely correct, I've made this point in a couple of other threads. Only difference being that it believe it isn't only limited to hardware specs, they also want people from various places, of various experiences, all those questions they put in the beta application, I'm sure they were all there for a reason. The thing to remember, getting into the beta isn't a competition, and realize that they are using you as free labor, when doing the beta, you are performing a service, and helping them develop and perfect the game. Okay so you also get to have tons of fun at the same time, but they are still using you! Just keep that in mind.

Yeah...i guess i should have wrote, that i just recently descended from the moon and have no idea what games are. This way i would at least get a key. Since most of the participants are fans, there is no need for experienced players i guess.

There is a known issue with the website wherein you can answer all the questions, however, it still says 22 out of 23 stages complete. Do not worry, you are fine.

Unlike Friends and Family the current phase of closed beta is randomly picked by criteria that PGI has decided apon. It is presumed that this criteria changes over time. You can have 3000 posts or none, everyone has the same chance of getting in right now.



Cheers.

If you buy a founders package, you only have a little over a month and you will be in...from my understanding.
