[CitizenCope]

Im going to be pissed if I get a question wrong.
"Sorry no invite for you. Pwnd"

 

[InfectedZero]

Dude yeah thats what Im scared of the most, I swear they better be like to were the stupidest fuck can answer it. Like "Whats a perk".

 

[WickedLaharl]

fucking 404's already. this sux

 

[MercuryLS]

Wait so this really is US only? Not for NA? FUCK!

 

[armubaba]

Dude yeah thats what Im scared of the most, I swear they better be like to were the stupidest fuck can answer it. Like "Whats a perk".

Seriously. I really hope it's not some random WW2 question. I'm pretty sure it won't be, it's supposed to be easy, but "easy" is a relative term.

 

[Stantron]

Hope I get in. I'm down to play with some GAF peeps.
Add me to your fiends list, GT: Stantron

 

[Joates]

fucking 404's already. this sux

Seriously, it will be a feat just to get the damn page to load at 8, let alone answer the question right and get chosen.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

The trivia questions on the front page have been quite trivial so far. Definitely not easy, but something you would have to go hunting through previews to know, that's for sure.

 

[CajoleJuice]

Ok, so what's going on exactly? It'd be awesome if I was able to play this once I hopefully get a 360 tomorrow.

 

[homez99]

Thanks, what a lovely sentiment.

 

[InfectedZero]

Everyone is going to fail the quiz and like the under 100 people already in the beta is going to be it.

 

[Big Takeover]

One of these days people are going to learn that inviting millions of people to your website for an exclusive opportunity is really a fucking bad idea.

 

[Stantron]

I have a hunch the questions will go something like this:
1) what's your gamer tag?
2) are you over 18 years old?
3) do you live in the US?

BTW, I wonder if the beta info requires that the page be refreshed, or only requires you to press the "Enter Now" button.

 

[BuG]

They really ought to just release it as a multiplayer demo like half of the others on Xbox Live. Restricting "invites" for the sake of making it feel like an exclusive club is stupid.

 

[MercuryLS]

Ok so exactly when is this beta going up? I gotta go get Bioshock but I don't want to miss the beta. Hell I don't even know if I'll get in cause I'm Canadian, I'm just hoping that they let people from NA in.

 

[armubaba]

Stop clogging up my Interwebs non-Americans!

See, the Internet is a series of tubes, it's not just like a dumptruck. Too many hits clogs these tubes. SO STOP.

 

[MercuryLS]

Someone please answer my Q so can go out and get Bioshock in peace.

 

[JdFoX187]

I called this like 10 pages ago. The Web site crashed and hardly anyone will get in. I'd bet more money most GAFers won't get in, but some random guy who's never heard of CoD will.

I guess Bioshock will have to wait a bit longer.

 

[Halvie]

page dead for anyone else?

Isn't it always like that?

Answers to their previous trivia questions, in case it helps.

I'd have it open in another tab just in case.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

pretty much. Its the law of beta signups

 

[MThanded]

This is so dumb. If you are gonna do a time based entry please have your servers ready for it.

 

[Edwood]

What the shit.

Infinity Ward = netards.

Releasing a "beta" test two months before retail release.

 

[JdFoX187]

Isn't it always like that?

That's true. I thought Microsoft had the right idea by packaging it in with another game. One day, studios will actually learn another way.

 

[Joates]

So are we going to answer the trivia questions in this thread to help out everyone?

This isn't uncommon

I would sure hope so.

 

[Keylime]

Don't know what the questions are going to look like, but I want to make sure I'm ready just in case

 

[Dartastic]

No you're not. You have GAF. = )

 

[Tokubetsu]

All betas should just be "SURPRISEBUTTSEX!" Don't tell anyone a beta is coming, or if you do, give a huge timeframe, like a week then just randomly drop it sometime in there.

 

[armubaba]

No you're not. You have GAF. = )

There you are!

 

[Matrix]

The site is already f-ed :lol

I will if I get in and know them. I would assume everyone else would do the same.

 

[Dartastic]

There you are!

I BE HERE! F5ING FURIOUSLY!

Spoiler

Actually, not so much. More like, "hoping the page loads."

It's true. Well, that about wraps it up for tonight.

 

[arne]

I've been playing the beta for the past hour. I'll prolly play it a little bit more, then get back to Bioshock. Then tonight, it's gonna be COD4 time again (8pm EST sounds fine).

There aren't very many people online right now (only a couple dozen) since it's still press & family only, which is why I'm gonna hold off until tonight to really start playing.

your friends list is full?

 

[Grecco]

Yay the page isnt opening!

Awesome way to hand out beta.

Not a bad idea actually.

 

[MThanded]

someone broke the internets :-(

 

[radrelic]

5 minutes till insanity

 

[Skilotonn]

Stop F5'ing damnit - the site is already broke as is!

 

[dark_preacher]

wish i had knew about this earlier but just saw the thread. actually signing up for an account right now is a no go.

 

[traveler]

5 minutes till insanity

It's already hit.

 

[Cornballer]

The page is intermittent for me right now - sometimes it loads, sometimes it doesn't.

 

[WickedLaharl]

it wont load for me PERIOD

 

[UncleGuito]

your friends list is full?

I don't think so- I only have around 25 people on it.
