Beta-Invite > now Alpha-Invite???

I imagine they'll be having some Alpha people for the consoles. Just to make sure everything connects all right.

im not so sure, because the game is jointly developed on cross platform system. so faults in one will be faults on the other. so its not needed, especially when you have to factor in the costs of putting an alpha on the consoles.

there will be beta to stress test servers and iron things out but i doubt there will be an alpha to

Not necessarily. With the consoles you're adding in the factor of Playstations Network, and Live. They're not dealing with that now in the office, but it very well could be an issue for the general public. I imagine they'll want to make sure the connections are all working.

thats why they need betas and not alphas alphas are for bugs and mechanic exploits etc, since there is a massivly reduced population its not exactly going to test the psn or xbox networks

Alpha as in the term they use it for... continuous testing not timed. That's what I was referring to. An Open Beta wouldn't be bad, but I'd think they still want to make sure everything is connected first before they put it out there like that.

Don't quote me but ... From what I understand, pre orders get into beta and getting into alpha is random invites.

Pre-orders get beta access, not alpha. You'll have to wait until the next beta event.

I keep getting my hopes up every morning when I wake up to see my e-mail. During the 3-day beta I was off from work for medical conditions, so I ended up spending my entire days driving around looking for arkfalls.

My downside was I never found any unique bugs The few I found were already reported by a large group of others.
Not that it stopped me from reporting them in...

Bad timing all around. We had a blizzard come through and had intermittent power failures. Got in some pve and had a blast .. can't wait to get some pvp next round.

Be careful with talking about the beta on these forums.
