Exclamation *** PlanetSide 2 Ultimate Beta FAQ ***


I've created this thread that contains everything we know about beta. Please resist the urge to create new threads on this topic

Beta Producers Letter

External Beta will include primary rounds of entry for existing PlanetSide 1 players and additional External Beta registrants, including those who obtained Beta codes from the PC Gamer magazine cover feature. Playtests will be scheduled during this time to ensure the maximum testing of specific aspects of the game with ever increasing numbers of players. Your participation is extremely valuable to us and we’ll be balancing and revising base layouts based on your feedback. Again, we will be inviting as many of our existing PlanetSide 1 players as we can into the early phases of Beta determined by a number of different factors, including machine type. Rest assured PlanetSide 1 players... you’re top of the list in each phase.
When is beta?

Via YouTube, Josh Hackney @ 2:10 "In the next few weeks we will actually start letting trickles of folks in"


Via GameSpot, Matt Higby @12:50 ""Very near future, within the next few weeks and we will be doing open beta a couple weeks after that" He also states the game will be launched within the year.

For the recent E3 Keys.

Unlike new folks we know who played PS1 so already have their information. Make sure your Station account is updated and you are good to go.

@planetside2 so does getting a beta key from you get me in faster than my 8 years of PS1?
@TehDuffman - Nope! You will still get priority access! [Danicia]
Please do not create additional threads on this topic. If folks have questions I will see if I can raise attention to this thread to get some answers.
