Darkling19 Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 out of curiosity how many of you signed up for the starwars galaxies beta testing? if you don't know where it's at http://www.starwarsgalaxies.com
OnlyOneCanoli Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 I sure did. I'd love to get my hands on it early. But I've never beta-tested before, so I doubt it.
Vestril Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 I sure did. I'd love to get my hands on it early. But I've never beta-tested before, so I doubt it. I know what you mean but I know so much about Star Wars, I've played so many other Star Wars games!! Pick me! Pick meeeeeeeeeeee!! *takes a deap breath*
Darksider Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 i applied heres what i put for my star wars gaming experience Galactic Battlegrounds Force Commander X-Wing + B-Wing + Imperial pursuit TIE Fighter + Defender of the Empire X-wing VS TIE Fighter X-Wing Alliance Rebellion Dark Forces Jedi Knight Jedi Outcast Yoda Stories!!! Rogue Squadron Battle for Naboo Starfighter Shadows of the Empire Super Star Wars (SNES!)
Pedantic Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 I did. I said I can correct grammatical errors. Maybe they'll accept me for that...after all, I caught the spelling error on the sign-up page.
gonk-raider Posted May 8, 2002 Posted May 8, 2002 damn i have about hte same game list.. but I LEFT OUT THE CONSOLE GAMES....*gets on his kness* YOU BASTARDS!!! I Sure hope i get signed on : ) i didnt get to be on the war3 beta i hope iget this one : )
Darkling19 Posted May 8, 2002 Author Posted May 8, 2002 gnar gnar, i got into the warcraft 3 beta via a friend, and i can tell all of you it rox, i played it when it was most unbalanced but it looks sooooo beautifull when you see everything in motion, the screenies dont do it justice... anyways i promised the galaxies people that i'd sacrifce to any number of dark gods and other deity's if it meant i got the job so i'm a sure win
Breakin2' Posted May 8, 2002 Posted May 8, 2002 For those who've beta tested before, exactly what does it entail? I've applied and I'd like to know exactly what it is I've applied for.
chrispcarter Posted May 8, 2002 Posted May 8, 2002 I did, and I truthfully listed every SW Game ever - apart from Episode One: TPM and Pod Racer 1, which I forgot about... DAMN But I am a UK resident anyway so I didn't really have a chance to begin with - one of the things I hate about beta testing - it's usually a US / Canadians only club.
Darksider Posted May 8, 2002 Posted May 8, 2002 Crap! forgot pod racer! argh would anyone who /hasnt/ played the warcraft 3 beta raise your hand? :D although its unlikely people will be playing the SWG beta by downloading it off kazaa or something similar, what with it needing an account and all
OOO Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I'm just curious, how many of you people who are so eager to play galaxies had an account on Everquest? Just curious...cause I wouldn't play galaxies if it where shipped to me free and didn't have to pay for it each month. So long as its being made by Verant... And I'd LOVE to play a ---good--- Star Wars MMORPG OOO
The Truthful Liar Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I've signed up <---- can't wait to see all those cool characters

Rogue Squadron Battle for Naboo Starfighter Shadows of the Empire Super Star Wars (SNES!) as cool as saying you've played all them is, especially yoda stories, they may not pick you for that reason. They may think that you're a SW freak and will be so enraptured in the SW universe that you wont notice bugs just a thought.. and oh yeah, i signed up. damn those 3 reasons... i had to bs my way through them...
gonk-raider Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I cant wait to own a plantation on tatoone "hiring" jawas to work in my moister farms and i'll walk out in my cloths that make me look like cornle sanders and kick them in the butt while lookingat my pocket watch if they dont work fast enough
Darkling19 Posted May 9, 2002 Author Posted May 9, 2002 I never played a MMORPG before, mostly because i can't afford to dish out a steady 12 bucks a month for long and you needed a account for Warcraft 3 too, but there was a whole network of people playing hijacked copies of the beta so it was easy enough to find a game without official battlenet stuff. and to the guy that wasn't sure what beta testing it, here goes: beta testing the the part of the development proces where the developers let a selected group of gamers play the unfinished game. the aim is that the gamers find most of the bugs and balancing problems so that when the game hits the stores it has allready been tested on stuff like that to provide a well balanced and hopefulle smooth game. more importantly it gives us the chance to say to the community NAR NAR I PLAYED GALAXIES MONTHS BEFORE YOU DID HAHAAA..... so don't expect the beta to be all smooth and ****, i remember my first game of Warcraft 3, i could just win by making a swarm of flying creatures and load a couple of blimps full of those undead ogres and land everything in the enemy base and mop up the people who fled. teehee i still have great love for my 101st UNDEAD AIRBORNE even though they balanced this heck out of it
D66 Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Done. Treated it like a Job aplication more than a Game-site Especialy under the "3 things that would make you a good Beta Tester" Attention to Detail Willingness to Work on "frustrating" Issues Ability to Research issues and find solutions I also changed my Station ID to reflect a legit e-mail (I Never check ignmail) and legit demographic data
