Struck me too, isnt the usual 80-20 division into 80% slackers and 20% hard workers? Seems paradox has hit a grand goldmine in motivating people, far better than what money gets amongst the Fortune500
Apply for Phase 2 Betatesting

You also beta-tested Ultima Online?Zwiback said:
Which part of it - the first release or one of the expansions?
Submitted as well.
Hmm, looking in hindsight the things i wrote, i'll prolly not be chosen.

Well....it wasn't exactly known what were the graphical requirements when the first round started.
But a new graphics card is on the top of my to-do list atm

It was one of the expansions, 3rd Dawn it was. Heck, we didnt even have an affortable internet connection here when the original UO was release.
These were the times, played that thing four years

Not just hard work, but work of a kind I have found myself ill suited for.. coming nowhere near my self-expected efficciency. So after a few attempts, i think ill better stay out
Still i would love to play with the numbers, and figure out combinations.. so if anyone feels like sending me data on the buildings, goverments and such ill be happy to do some brainstorming on those alone
Ah, I tested that one as well. Got sent an alpha copy due to my connection to the Crossroads of Britannia site (or, rather, the sister site for the unfortunately scrapped UO2). Almost ended up on the official tester team, but then EA decided to scrap the volunteer programs...Zwiback said:It was one of the expansions, 3rd Dawn it was.

Which would be a violation of NDA so...Yggdrasil313 said:Not just hard work, but work of a kind I have found myself ill suited for.. coming nowhere near my self-expected efficciency. So after a few attempts, i think ill better stay out

Don't bother signing up if you just want a preview of game. You should sign up if your going to take testing seriously. You will still have fun as a beta tester, even if you do it properly.
Incidentally, if anyone has a high level of historic knowledge about Asia, that would be considered a definite "plus" for your chances of acceptance.

I have a GeForce3 card (PixelShader 1.1). Does this mean that I won't be able to play EU3?

That was really quick. Thanks.
Ok, let's go check prices for a new graphics card.
Able to assist with the various database files without making errors that are likely to incur the wrath of the public. Having a university-level history couse on that region under your belt would be good....basically you'd need good competance of major things/issues in that egion during the full EU3 era, and have access to resources to research various things in depth. Spending an hour on the internet in Wiki reading up on it would not suffice.Registered said:
Right, count me as climbing to high level then, still in university after all.MrT said:
Might be fine if you're already leaning towards that region in your specialization (and could end up being highly valuable for your university studies tooRegistered said:

Oh I signed up. Again. I'm trying not to be fatalistic about this but...
To post what I said in my beta test application, I'm hoping to get in to try to get a fix to historical inaccuracies in the Maritimes before it goes to market, rather than after. I figure people might be more receptive during the beta to this sort of things. Especially if I get in for Historical Research.
That said, Good Luck everyone!
