My "thank you for signing up" e-mail is dated 3rd October 2011 and I haven't received an invite.
Great way to reward those who have been interested about the game for years Oo
Anyone else in the same boat?

there are probably around a million other gamers that dint got a invite and might be supportive of this game far longer then you. there is absolute no reason to incl a frustrated comment like :
"Great way to reward those who have been interested about the game for years Oo"
perhaps its time to look around as see if there is anything more important to be frustrated about, Like silly laws that put kids in jail for being in love. (facebook)
I signed up when they first started. It does look like an awesome game so far.
yea and the beta pick ups are done by randomly wich sucks , companies should put more effort into " hiring " beta testers from players who actually give input and have experience about testing rather than giving a change to player type who just game and give no input.
Playing: Smite, Marvel Heroes
Played: Nexus:Kingdom of the Winds, Everquest, DAoC, Everquest 2, WoW, Matrix Online, Vangaurd, SWG, DDO, EVE, Fallen Earth, LoTRo, CoX, Champions Online, WAR, Darkfall, Mortal Online, Guild Wars, Rift, Tera, Aion, AoC, Gods and Heroes, DCUO, FF14, TSW, SWTOR, GW2, Wildstar, ESO, ArcheAge
Waiting On: Nothing. Mmorpg's are dead.
That's how the cookie crumbles.
They did not take in that many last week......the 15000 number is how many invites are going to be sent for the stress test that is happening really soon according to their twitter post. Once stress test is over if you took part in it your closed beta invite will be pushed through rather quickly.
Actually they just announced the stress test is this weekend and emails are going out now for it!!!!!!!!!
This.
The CLOSED beta (1 and 2) invited 2k each I heard. Thats only 4,000 invites so far out of how many applications? The numbers are not in our favor.

It would be wrong to assume that all beta testers chosen randomly would just be in it to "try" the game out and give no input. It would be a better plan to kick out testers who don't log in and/or provide zero input. If they only picked people with tons of experience, it would rule out a lot of players who legitimately want to beta the game and gain experience doing so. Doesn't matter how you pick people, just what they do once getting in...
I just don't see the point in taking signups 1½ years before the beta if you are not going to give any priority over the people who signed up this week for example.
Frankly I feel bit offended by this.
For example in FFXIV they actually gave priority to players who were playing the first version of the game before the beta for A Realm Reborn started.
yeah...and?
If you want a new idea, go read an old book.
In order to be insulted, I must first value your opinion.
They did the same thing in the GW2 closed Beta.
@Op. Here is something to think about, you could sign up for beta 10 seconds after registration and never get in, thats the way it works. Same thing happened to me with Tor and the only way I got into beta was with a key from this site. Get used to it, they don't owe you anything.
With that kind of reasoning one might think that you also want the ones playing on the lottery who buys their tickets on a monday should have a priority/bigger chance of winning the big $ over those who bought it on tuesday, seriously.
And whats to get offended by, we sign up for the "chance" of entering beta, even if some of us signed up the same day as it was possible it doesnt say that a few others, and with the amount of people watching this title i go loosely with the "few",might be alot.. that signed before and/or at the same time as you/we did, dont they get as much priority in that case?..
We sign, we hope... if we dont get our invite, we wait, we watch, and some day release will come and we can play. Simple as that. Wishfull thinking that a new game should use the same rollout of betainvites as an already released game wich people has payed for is riddiculous.
That's what invitation/selection beta's are about, you either get in or you don't, stop crying about it.
'Waah waah, i joined then and then, i applied then and then, i should be privilidged' - no you're not, shut up and hope like the rest of us.
signed up august of 2011
almost hope i dont get in because i tend to stop playing everything once i get into a beta and i never alow myslef to progress in the beta. so i end up not enjoying anything. good luck to the rest of you!
^^ Do you really think you are alone OP ;D
yep .. unfortunately
