Honestly, I see the lack of joysticks at this point a good thing. I would say it is an indication that the game is plenty playable without one, which will make it easier to draw in a larger player base. That means more targets!

What no joysticks!

That's normal. In any beta, the devs set the environment and what they want to test. If they are still working on the keyboard and mouse setup they would ask everyone to use that interface. We already know that the game has joystick support anyway.

Awesome wall art addition Aegis! Now they need to make it so!

ohh, I see Matt N is viewing the thread. Time to let us all know what you were doing that your hand is blurry

Thanks Garth !! Nice to finally have some confirmation there will be a Closed Beta process between F&F and Release..

SOmetimes all it takes to make us happy and quit speculating is to simply tell us whats going on

Its not like we had't already figured most of it out anyway

Awesome news, looking forward to playing.

Soooo excited!! This is going to be great! Can't wait guys, keep up the good work!

Between F&F and release there will also be open beta, which does not actually count as a full release though, and we having registered on the forums are all able to be in that if i remember correctly. So there will be more steps between this and release but it is also great to know about the progress being made.


That being said, Thank you Devs for keeping us updated on what progress is being made when you can. We all do understand that you cannot tell us everything, and if you did, it would take quite a long while. Thank you for all the hard work that you are putting in to designing the game we have waited so long for!


It looks great as well! I am quite excited for the game to come out. It cannot happen soon enough!

No Dual/Triple Monitor setups that I can see? interesting.....

I can test it with 2 monitors.... hell, I'll be 4 more and do it with 6 if it'll get me into the beta...

Funny, I always thought the official PGI Beta Song was "Nothing from nothing leaves nothing... you gotta have something, if you wanna beta with me." That or "Domo Arrigato, Mr. Roboto." Maybe even some "Rage against the Machine".

As a game developer, our two songs will always be: Everybody's Workin' For The Weekend, and The Final Countdown (to gold!)
