chariot Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Ok... I admit, I'm not much of a forumite. So if that's my only chance to get into Beta, I'm screwed. But I've been a Hero gamer since the days of the box set with the Big Blue dice What are the odds that some of us lurker types, who've been around for a while get a shot at this? I mean... I am a COH\COV player, been invited to every previous closed Beta there... Stormreach Beta.... It'd be good to get me in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Fyre Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? You realise that anyone who received an invitation would be subject to the NDA, so couldn't discuss even getting an invitation. (b.t.w., I didn't get one either. ) "The first rule of Champions Online Beta is, you do not talk about Champions Online Beta." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chariot Posted October 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? I am familiar with the concept, but then I didn't ask anyone to give me any info... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Long Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? As far as I know -- and I am definitely not speaking for Cryptic here -- being a long-time Champions fan isn't a guarantee of getting into public beta (whenever they start that). I'm sure it's a factor they'll consider in reviewing applications, but that's all. We have discussed some beta-related promotions with Cryptic, such as "buy this bundle of Champions books and automatically get a Beta key" or "win this contest we run here on the site and automatically get a Beta key," but those are just ideas that have been tossed around. We haven't taken any specific steps yet, and I don't know what steps we'll take toward what end when we do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chariot Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? Well.. thanks for that Steve. Nice to know that it might be a consideration. Here's hoping that this really turns out to be in a feather in your cap. I've really appreciated everything DOJ has done since taking over the Hero franchise (though I can't seem to get a new campagin off the ground using any of the new goodies). I really was just doing some shameless self-promotion; I want in, and willing to do almost anything to get in ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Watts Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? My best recommendation would be to go register at the Champions-Online website and make yourself a valuable part of the discussions going on there. The Powers That Be are paying much more attention to that site than ours... dw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Re: Long Time Heroes get any Beta chances? Darren's right; participation over there, worthwhile participation, is your best bet to get noticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
