EDIT: Forget what I said, I got better clarification on the issue later. Just thought we were seeing a serious change in how they're handling the beta.

Thats also different from what she said before iirc. Things change I guess

This is different from the "PS1 vets get special considerations" stuff we've heard before.

Crap seriously? Well I guess that's a good as any to sub PS1. I can't help that I was too young during its heyday to have a credit card.

I like hearing that PCG and twitterkeys are basically the same thing. For a while I thought due to the amount of twitterkeys being given out they would basically mean squat. (Which in the end they probably do since they've been giving out thousands of them.)

No guys, Vets and Pc Game mags STILL have priority.

Don't know where this surfaced and why, but they have priority. This has been said SO many times before. I wish people would listen sometimes.

For clarification on this:

When she said that, she was referring to keys SHE had, which were apparently set to equal priority to the vets and PC Gamer mags. So in terms of twitter keys, what I said wasn't actually included. Sorry for my miswording.

Ahhh. Miswording, its killer :P

I can't get over the fact that cats have about 8 nipples. Why would a cat need 8 nipples? Surely a powerful animal like cat could just shove away surplus kittens or let the strongest kittens feed themselves on 2 nipples?

Seems weird.

beta soon.

Hate to break it to yu kids again, but the twitter keys are one and the same with other actual keys (PC gamer, not speaking for vet flag) Both grant 'Congratulations, you've unlocked priority beta access', and on my station account, it says I have priority access. Know why they haven't been clear about this? So this trigger happy community doesn't flip a nut over not being super elite. They'll be the same. people who got them in a mag aren't any more special than people hustling 4 or 5 using fan art.

That's actually what I had written in the first place, but then I got further clarification on it and it sounded like I was wrong. This stuff just confuses the hell out of me.

Oh well, doesn't matter. We'll all get in beta when we get there. I had a twitter key and it said "Priority Key" as well, but I assumed it meant I had priority over a guy who had just signed up off the website with no key. As I said, doesn't matter. We'll all get in eventually.

acting like an entitled person:

I'd take any number of vets (ofcourse including myself) over any number of guys who just heard about planetside 3 months ago.

Not everyone who thinks planetside 2 looks sweet just heard about it. I just think PS2 doesn' look like total crap, and is fortunately everything you 'vets' hate. Can't wait till you guys are outnumbered by FPS jocks and Nexon addicts 3000:1. We'll see who's a sadbear then lmao.

fairly sure this nonsense has already been confirmed to some degree dev's saying vet's have first pick within each pull of invites till were gone. granted vet's may not have all the specs for hardware they need so they pull from someone non vet so they will check us first then who ever else. twitter vs pc gamer i have no idea no post that I'm aware of.

I think you are vastly overestimating the room for teamwork in PS2. The closest thing you will find is zerging the enemy by all attacking at once.

Not really trying to come off that way, just stating that no matter what vets want, 1000's of non vets will be there :P
