Title: Phase 2 Starting (US timezone)
Post by: Talad on October 17, 2004, 01:02:31 am: Hi,
we had in mind to select 50 people for Phase 2 and we did. This message is the second one used to select players. We decided to have a first set of 25 players chosen in European timezone and another set in US timezone. This is just to be fair with most of players and give nearly everyone a chance to be online when the message is posted.

So we need another set of 25 people.

The prerequisites are:

- You should not be one of the people that participated to Phase 1 (Phase 1 testers will be automatically in Phase 2).
- understand that is NOT done for playing, but for testing, so the overall experience will not be fun as playing a game. You will help us debug the problems, so can be boring.
- a good internet connection that enables you to download around 200Mb in less than 1 day.
- possibility to dedicate at least 6 hours in the next week to testing
- a windows or linux machine with average hardware and average video card or better
- have lot of patience. Beware that we are still experiencing bugs, server may not be available all times, devs will not ba able to answer all your questions. Also the game you will play will miss some of the features of the final CB release.

If you do not met the above please avoid to submit your name.

If you met the requirement above and you want to participate in the testing, just reply to this message and write your email address in the message. We will send you a message with the details of the download.

You will have the possibility to create many chars, so you don\'t need to get two slots. Avoid posting 2 times or posting 2 email for the same person. We will track IPs, so you will be discarted. Please do not post other\'s email, this is not allowed in this second set.

Only the first 25 replies will be considered.

I know we\'re all waiting in suspense, but I\'m sure people will know if they are picked when the time comes for the new testing-phase-download-thingy to come out. Plus, he\'ll probably email people to see if they actually DO meet the requirements first before he goes out and sends THE email (I know some people will sign up even if they don\'t have the requirements... its just human nature to wish ;) ).

Title:
Post by: AendarCallenlasse on October 19, 2004, 04:17:19 am: Why would you need to check the e-mail the moment you receive it? the devs aren\'t gonna boot you from testing because you checked your e-mail 38 seconds too late...

Just wait. That goes for everyone else as well. Quit posting are the e-mails out yet?s You will know when they have been sent whether you made it in or not.

Post by: Moogie on October 19, 2004, 04:21:10 am: These are long overdue to be closed... If the devs want to post anything here they can re-open them. But for now, stop trying to apply for god\'s sake! You\'re all too late! :P
