I don't understand invite more people to the beta instead of the same damn people who got in last time. They said they were going to expand the beta, but it doesn't seem like it's expanding at all. I want to get in!

I can't get into my account information on swtor.com for some reason, it just keeps bringing up the log-in screen even though I'm already logged in. Anyone else having this problem?

Also, what the fuck do I have to do to get into the beta? I was the 829th person to register an account on the site (out of nearly 2 million), I've been active, been in several closed beta's, pre-ordered the CE, have a good rig, etc.. Random invites piss off devoted nerds like me who feel entitled to things. I'm tired of waiting.

There's a list on candy island. Or you could always go to the forum and click on your profile your number listed in the address bar is the order you registered (possibly just the order you registered on the forums).

Shit is whack, though. Last week I was listed as registering in June 2009. The same field has me listed as January 2010. How does that happen?

Ah, see...if only you'd been the 828th person you'd be in.

So if anyone else is attending gamescom, you can signup for a Warzone PvP event at the SWTOR booth. Here is some information about the event and the signup mail address. Unfortunately participants are chosen at random. So it's beta all over again.

They did not include Wednesday (press & industry day), but I am not sure if that means that part of the booth will be closed on Wednesday or if there is simply no signup needed.

Dude. I feel your pain. I signed up on the site near launch and I know that I put myself in for the beta on the day it became available. People getting 2-3 invites is fucking dumb. Yeah, that's right - I said it!

Every day I wait patiently for my invite to show up and I get giddy when my email notification rings through. Is it the long-awaited, coveted beta invite? No. It's another fucking TGIF coupon telling me I can get "buy one get one free" Jack Daniel's entrees!

RAAAAAGE.

I've recently accepted the fact that I will never get in to the testing process. It's peaceful here.

Boom. That's it. Calm acceptance. This becomes much less stressful. Although, since they aren't using system specs anymore, I think I may have a better chance to get it. I will wait, still heart, still mind.

My logical mind knows that I'm better off not being invited into the beta because I'm currently chest deep in a project for work that has a mid September deadline. I need to work tons of overtime until it's complete. Unfortunately, if an invite just happened to enter my inbox, my irrational emotional mind would jump all over it.

Yeah I have accepted my fate but if I dont get into the beta in september for some random reason I will officially have to quit gaf until release or risk losing my mind.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
I joined at the end of 2008 and apparently my number is 51,824. I don't think there were that many people on the forum at that time...?

There's clearly a "Send random beta appliances" button somewhere in the Bioware database program. It is just a matter of luck, even if you're the #1 on the SWTOR site. I even wonder if this guy got in beta.

By the way, new patch notes are on the cake. I guess these are from the new build. Seems Imperial Agent has been improved a lot with significants changes. Woo!

Yeah, doesn't really seem to be any rhyme or reason to their methods.

Guarantee I'm going to screw up this post? Yeah.
I know someone who signed up two weeks ago and got in already. so yeah, definitely random.

I've been waiting for two years!

I found out I can browse the web on my Kindle for free. This is so horrible.

I just want to make sure it is a game I want to play before I shell out tons of money for the game and the subscription.

You will have a chance after release if you don't get into the beta. Most MMOs release a trial about 2 - 3 months after release.
