So over the course of the day, invites will go out. Well, I guess here's hoping more of us here get in to play.

 

[Subterranean]

Another day of racing to my phone/PC whenever I hear the new mail sound.

 

[Woorloog]

Imagine if you'd get an "invite" but you cannot download the client/log in and then you get email: Email distribution error.

 

[krameriffic]

And yet, it's a distinguishing feature for the game. Taking a distinguishing feature away and then saying the game is pretty much like other similar games is pretty silly. I mean, let's take away the fast running speed of Sonic in his games, and then we can remark that it's just another platformer. Maybe we can take away the fatalities in Mortal Kombat games so we can state that they're no different than other fighting games. How about we remove the accessibility that World of Warcraft provided at its launch and claim that it's just like any other MMO.

The voice acting is padding? Yeah, right.

Every single line of dialog could be written by Vince Gilligan and delivered in the delightfully haunting tones of John Noble and the voice acting can still never make collecting 10 pig mandibles for the umpteen bazillilionth time interesting. WoW had it right: put in voice acting for the parts that are actually interesting. It highlights whats important without wasting a colossal amount of resources on shit nobody cares about.

 

[Won]

Nope, According to this everyone is in the pool now.

Hmm, I guess I should have choosen Germany as my country.

 

[kenssi]

Well, I'm from Europe and I just got my invite. Gotta change my plans for the weekend now.

 

[Dakota47]

If I don't get in, I swear I will

Spoiler

not be surprised in the least.

Same. *starts F5 hammering*

 

[Last Hearth]

Just go to swtor.com/tester and you'll see if you're in or not.

I was a first weekender, checked my email and got nothing, went to the link and it says I was reinvited for this weekend. Downloading client now.

 

[Lombax]

start checking you email. just found out I am in for this weekends beta test.

 

[Tik-Tok]

Just got my email inviting me to my second beta test weekend.

 

[Stormwatch]

Guess who's back. Back again.

 

[Deadly]

I got in again too. Don't know if I'm going to play though... Having to download the client everytime is really a bummer.

 

[flyinpiranha]

Beta weekend 2 is THIS weekend!

http://www.swtor.com/news/news-article/20111004

Also from Reid:

Please read the Forum post folks. "Invites for the Beta Testing Weekend are being sent *over the course of today*, October 4th.

I actually kind of wrote this game off for a bit but I just got the beta invite so I'm willing to give it a shot.

Can't wait! Forza 4 demo last weekend now SW:TOR!

 

[Fox the Sly]

I got in again too. Don't know if I'm going to play though... Having to download the client everytime is really a bummer.

You have to start from scratch again? No patching from the previous test? Oh my...

 

[Door2Dawn]

Why the fuck are they letting in people who already had a beta test weekend? Didn't they said it was one time only?

I've yet to get in once :/

 

[Deadly]

Yeah since it's their new build and stuff you have to download it all over.

 

[Giolon]

I've yet to get in once :/

B/c they changed their mind and wanted to let people who were in the first beta weekend see the improvements made to the newer build as a comparison. They're allowed to do that.

Why the fuck are you complaining about something you're not entitled to?

 

[Fox the Sly]

Yeah since it's their new build and stuff you have to download it all over.

Oh ok. I haven't really kept up, so I thought maybe the test phases were a bit more frequent. Makes sense.

 

[BattleMonkey]

Still no invite, at least someone got me into the actual long phased beta.

 

[Giolon]

Dude sitting next to me at work just got his weekend beta invite.

 

[Deadly]

They clearly said that those who were already invited could get in again.

 

[gatti-man]

yup just got my weekend invite.

 

[Door2Dawn]

Why the fuck are you complaining about something you're not entitled to?

I'm not complaining about anything, so take a chill pill.

I'd like to try the game at least to see if I want to play it or not. They're aasking for 60 dollars and a monthly fee, I'm not going to risk a gamble.

 

[Woorloog]

No invite still. I sure they still have my old system specs stored (even though that is no longer required) and skip me because my laptop doesn't match required specs (or are they recommended?). Maybe i should create another account...

 

[qKaC3K]

I feel soo unlocky nowadays. No SWTOR, Diablo III and DOTA2 invite either. :-/

Later on after release I'm sure they'll have a free trial. This is to test stuff. You may have to wait a few months but you won't have to waste your money on something you might not like.

 

[WarMacheen]

Still nothing...


Damn Bioware you could at least send me an invite after your troll emails got my hopes up.

 

[Deadly]

Still no invite, at least someone got me into the actual long phased beta.

Lucky. These beta weekends are such a tease. The actual beta is what I'm more interested in.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Newp, still nothing for me. Ah well.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Damn, didn't get in this round either.

 

[Xamdou]

I feel soo unlocky nowadays. No SWTOR, Diablo III and DOTA2 invite either. :-/

I'd be happy getting an invite from any of those game betas, but alas fortune is not on my side this fall...

 

[Ferny]

I feel soo unlocky nowadays. No SWTOR, Diablo III and DOTA2 invite either. :-/

I'm in the boat as you man -___-

 

[Proxy]

Finally got in after having an application from the start.

 

[flashburn2012]

Wow, I got an invite, very cool.

 

[jersoc]

just got my weekend invite too, woo!

wish it was D3 though, instead :|

 

[Lebron]

Finally got an invite, praise be to Qui-gon

 

[Dega]

Fuck yeah! I got an invite just now too!

 

[xelios]

I got an invite too, but not really in an MMO mood.

 

[bloodforge]

Bioware must hate me, still no invite

 

[Freki]

I got an invite too, but not really in an MMO mood.

i'll take it off your hands ;-)

 

[pelican]

If I don't in soon I swear I'm gonna force choke a Jawa.

 

[Phloxy]

Remember everybody check swtor.com/tester, couple buddies of mine never got emails but they went there and they were in.

 

[Mairu]

fucking finally hooray I know what I'm doing this weekend

 

[pelican]

I got an invite too, but not really in an MMO mood.

/makes force choke gesture with hand....

 

[Trouble]

Disappointing iPhone announcement, no beta invite. Someone's getting fucking stabbed today.

 

[xelios]

/makes force choke gesture with hand....

Hey don't blame me, I was interested when I signed up like, 2 years ? ago.

I don't know how to give it away or if it's even possible, with all my personal info on the account and such.

 

[Dash27]

Make sure you check the tester page: http://www.swtor.com/tester

I couldn't find an email but the site says I'm a go.

 

[tch]

I signed up like a year ago. Totally forgot about it until I got my invitation today!

 

[bathala]

Just got my email, but right around Dark Souls

Might try it for few hrs

 

[kyo_daikun]

Still nothing for me, got to admit im a little confused by the re-inviting of people who tried it a few weeks ago opposed to not just inviting more people who have never had a go.

Of course its nice to show people improvements but surely it would be better to show them a month or 2 down the line so they can see a massive difference.

Like I signed up a year ago to test, preordered the collectors edition and still not had a sniff.
