SWTOR Beta Wave: March 7 - May 17
« on: March 16, 2011, 05:44:59 pm »
I've received word from a friend of a friend that a new wave went out today. The testing is from March 7 through May 17th, so I'm not sure why this person just now got an invite. Did anyone luck out? I did not get an invite. I've also been told that sometimes they send them out over a few days so that the download isn't too bad.

On a related note, I have a huge impulse to throw something across my room. Sigh...

If you're worried about the email, you can go here to see if you magically have access.

SON OF A MOTHER FUCKING BITCH I AM GOING TO CUT A WHORE IF I DON'T GET INTO BETA SOON.

Er... No, I didn't get an e-mail.


...And we will strike down upon those of Darkness, with great vengeance and Furious Anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

Judging by the blank stares, no one is in this wave. To try to put it into perspective...

1.5 million people signed up for Beta.
We know that about 2000 have actually played the game.

Therefore your chance of getting in Beta so far is .13%...

Been getting info from the source in a steady stream now and lots of questions answered on game play features, class/race combos, UI stuff, will also be getting an answer on how colormatch system works once he gets of level to get some different gear.

JP, does your source have to deal with STO-style instancing?  That is to say, once a certain location hits a certain amount of people, it fills up and you have to pick a separate copy of that instance to go to, meaning you could have things like "Coruscant 1" vs. "Coruscant 2"?  It was something my friend in the December beta had to deal with, and I'm hoping that it was just a part o that phase of testing.

That was my understanding as well, that the game was far from ready at least.  Did you manage to get an answer re:the zoning thing?
