    If you have an android phone - TEAMVIEWER!!!! GIT IT NAO! Controlling my pc from anywhere is awesome. :P Also, I have it on most of my families computers so I can diagnose problems without leaving the toilet if I prefer. :D

    BOOYAKA!

    Why not use that to your advantage to increase your chances at getting in (with another e-mail)?

    Or do they check that kind of info later on?

    Yeah, I can't download their tool on a company computer. I do have access to a dxdiag from my own computer but it seems they want the dxdiag generated from their tool.

    In any case, end of work day can't come fast enough.

    There shouldn´t be a problem, you have 48 hours and I think they made it so you can´t tamper with it.

    Blitz: If they do they might not let you in at all, dare to take the chance?

    It doesn;t matter how fast you apply. Everyone have the same chances. And there will be more times when we can apply for it.

    As much as I'm hyped about GW2 I'm not planning to get to beta. I really prefrer to have fresh normal start without knowing everything and hopefully with all those bugfixes/tweaks from beta.

    That's all you'll get for now. This is how they will select their testers:

     

    Not necessarily. Testers are chosen based upon development needs. A wide range of systems is needed for testing. ~RB

    Well, your hardware might matter, they probably want a large spectrum of computers to warn them of any compability issue but the time you signed up wont matter.  

    Of course that didn´t stop me from having signed up 3 minutes after it was posted, and one of those minutes was refreshing the beta page and another running the diag program. :)

    Damn, was just going to ask if they do. Can't say it is real surprising but I'm in the same boat and have to wait until I get off from work.

    Ah well...maybe their site won't be as flooded then. Thanks for the info.

    Suzie thanks to you as well.

    1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.

    2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.

    3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

    If they're hosting they site for only 48 hours, I thought people signing up would be sure to get the key :( But it doesn't look that way T_T

  • MastadaMastada Member Posts: 40

    Very cool. Thanks for posting Suzie. I don't want to get into the beta, as I know, regardless of future information about the game, that I will be buying it. I only jump into betas when I am on the fence. For me, I kinda like to get in without knowing everything about the game. I've found as I get older that being first is very much over-rated.

    However, much good luck to you all wanting to get in, and I look forward to hearing about your experiences with the game in the future!

    Without directx 11 for XP this way of thinking can only go so far

    I know the feeling!   I should just go home now because I'm worthless at work.  All I can think about is getting home so I can sign up!
