The secret world

Im putting feelers out for how many people in fleet are wanting to beta the secret world.

There are a few conditions to be met though which is must be able to offer at least 10 hours per week to testing. also your machine must be a fairly good one. (basicaly if your machine doesnt run games good now it probably wont pass the inital test for the beta requirments.

The idea is the beta codes alow you to register and then it will ask to see your spec (no you cant input it it looks for itself) Anyhow I know a couple of peeps are intersted so just wanting to see howe many exactly and then I can aplly for codes.

Hey Flounder,

I just spoke with MarkNine and we're both "Very Interested" in beta testing Secret World. We both have pretty good systems and can both put in 10 hours of testing each week. So you can count us both in!

Yeah, I hold you personally responsible for piquing my interest in The Secret World. We both have high-end systems (we can run games like Fallout 3/New Vegas and STO on full details settings at 1900 x 1200). I can send you full specs if you need them. As for hours available for gaming, we might have too many, at least in my mind. I've beta tested most of the big name MMOs from EQ through DCUO and played all but a scant handful since UO.

I would definitely be interested. I generally run STO on full specs with my new card and it looks awesome. It would be cool to try a new game with some Stonewallers since I'm not really interested in DCUO or SW: TOR ^_^

im supposedly suppose to get into the cb guaranteed since i was in conan !

the closed beta is limited and no one is guaranteed. Even I am not and I ran a mini closed last month which was a semi end alpha pre beta to iorn out a big bug. Most of the codes if we get them will be going on a most active list in sto/rift from stonewall and those that post here. In regard to you headlock if your getting in guaranteed have you had the mail yet telling you about the aplication process? If not id either resubmit on the website for the beta or wait to see if we get the fleet ones. Anyhow I have submitted a error free apllication so will hopefully get an answer soon.

I've been interested since August 2009. (Finally found my little wallpaper kit they sent me and right clicked to see the date I saved them to my computer)

You know my interest flounder and my computer can handle anything.

What headlockman said though I was in Age of Conan, got a character to level cap and purchased the expansion and I haven't heard a thing about automatic beta entries. :ohmy:

With EA taking a more active role in the production its beta style is not to be desired. It wilol be a usa closed only is EA have theior way and use a set selected group of testers. Yes it sucks I know but im hoping that the app is a good one and represents well what an oranised fleet of freinds can do together. It worked before with many games. But we will see. The game is headlining several times a week now in all the right places and is coming to the e3 show so im assuming thats when thye will announce the beta dates (along id funcom is in control) lots of beta codes.

I got in by preordering the expansion for conan, it was a special offer for a spot in the closed beta. It didnt say when or what part. I am assuming it will be close to the end of closed beta but will see.

The big problem we have nowe is EA have taken over the beta testing, its no longer with funcom as thios part of that EA are getitng involved with. Notice now how EA is before funcom on all the videos and stuff now.

Oh dear.

EA is what killed Earth and Beyond when they took over development from Westwood Studios. With their fists of ham and their fingers of butter, they did their best to turn as much of the game into a time sink as possible, permanently shelved human scouts and Progen traders and after they had chased off enough players, shut it down for good.

I'm just hoping they stay as hands off with Secret World as it appears they have been with SWTOR.
