Got my beta code by preordering from Gamestop yesterday. There was no problem getting one, since I was the only one who had preordered. Not a good sign.

Did you get the BETA code ? or a code to input on a website so when the BETA begins you will receive the actual BETA code?
(A little hard to follow ...Sorry for my english)

Jstevenson, how much is there in the way of spoilers is the new cutscene that's going to be on GTTV? It looked like it showed a new area and characters and if it has more story importance than the Orick intro I think I'll skip on it so I can go in fresh.

Read the instructions on the gamestop voucher, you have to go to resistance.net enter the gamestop voucher code, and when the time comes you get an email with the actual beta code.

It is somewhat spoilery as it's dialogue heavy... I'm pretty spoiler sensitive though, when I know I want to buy/watch/play something, I pretty much stop looking at new media.

Thanks. Sounds like I'm going on blackout for this one.

That's what I get for not reading the fine print. :( I assumed it was like the Socom beta code.
 
How are keys being distributed to Qore folks? I've got the year's subscription (yeah, they got me) but I haven't gotten any emails or messages about the beta. Have the keys been released yet?

I keep checking Qore episode 3. In the download section the Resistance 2 beta is still not available to download. I guess when it goes live you will be able to download it right from Qore 3's download center.

I keep checking it every night, waiting for JS to press that launch button!

Ah, ok. I guess I'll start checking now and again for it.

I'm hoping this is how it will work! I don't know why they would have it in the download section if it didn't work that way, but hopefully JS can confirm this is how it will work for Qore members.

It could be like the socom qore beta. They email you a beta code and you redeem the code in PSN to download the beta.

Screw this I had to send an email to tech support to get my code.

Well, it didn't work that way for SOCOM. I believe i got an email with a code in it. However, that doesn't mean it won't work that way this time around. Short story long: who knows?

JS: Qore members need answers!

Will we get an email or will the beta be available through Qore 3's download center when it becomes available?

I just got an Email from PSU saying "participate in the R2 Beta" and it led me to the same sign-in page I filled out about a month ago (on beta.myresistance.net)

and when I filled it out, (for the 3rd time) it tells me they'll notify me by email if i'm chosen.

???

Union Carbine, your avatar scares me... I saw that movie when I was about 8 or 9 and never been quite the same since.

But on topic, d/ling the new podcast now.

I thought we'd get an email just like the SOCOM beta.

the game does look sterile, but later stages do look much nicer

Play it on Hard all the way till the end. See if that changes your opinion. Otherwise, can't help you there ^_^

I bought PTOM. It mentioned the "Big Bertha" weapon. Have we seen it yet ?

R1 starts flat but gets ZOMG amazing as you progress, I'd be interested to hear your impressions after a few more hours.

Stick with it bud, it does improve, don't judge the game graphically, that's not it's forte, it's the set-pieces, the quaint towns/villages, chimerian architecture in the later levels that are very impressive, take time out to look around, as you progress through the game not only does the set pieces improve but the level design seems to be more solid, you also start to amass quite a collection of awesome weapons, don't just stick to one weapon, explore them all, the effectiveness of some of them can differentiate quite a bit depending on the enemy you are using it on.

It gets so much better. You should stick it out.

if you bought episode 3 of Qore, you get it a week or so after everyone else. But if you have a Qore subscription, then you get it at the same time as everyone else

it's being worked on, lots of stuff to wrangle, and we wouldn't want to promise a date and not be able to hit it due to whatever various reasons. hopefully soon, but many moving parts.

That is the best policy. People went nuts when the SOCOM beta was a week late.
