Awww yeah son, got me a beta key! After so many haikus tweeted, sweet, sweet beta.

So have we decided on all the details of a bay12 outfit? I really hope we go for a really goofy name, so people are even angrier when we kill them.

edit : Actually how can I confirm I have entered my key? I got sent an email verifying that, but I don't see anything in my account page to signify that...? Or am I just being dense again.

Bay12 / Bay 12 got the most votes for outfit name.

You should get an email if you've entered it correctly. I did anyway.

[Aklyon]

True. F2P will mean a shitload of assclowns, and I wonder how they'll mitigate that annoyance.

If you can't follow others, orders, or the missions system, you can always use them as cannon fodder to protect the people who can actually hit the broadside of a Galaxy most of the time.

[Graven]

Bay 12? Not "Cancels eat:On Fire"? I am mildly disappointed.

Also just the email, nothing on the SOE website? Because I got the email, kind of before verifying it apparently. Hope that isn't a problem, but if I got the email, I should be ok.

And if all else fails, the game is gonna be free anyway come release, heh.

[Girlinhat]

You should get an email and somewhere near the bottom... hmm, actually...

That's the email I got when I entered a valid code.

[Mistercheif]

I just had a chance to snag one on twitter...and SOE apparently decided I needed to reset my account password...

FUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Girlinhat]

Nah, the bots would have snatched it up in under a second.

[Mistercheif]

Nah, the bots would have snatched it up in under a second.

Even with all the random symbols and extra numbers thrown in there now?

[Frumple]

Why would that matter? Bot probably just reads the page code and nabs whatever it is they're after. Obfuscation like that just slows down humans, not machines

It's not like they enter the code, and then twitter adds the nonsense symbols (which also include valid symbols, but bracketed in a way so that it is not clearly part of the code).
A bot could filter out nonsense, but not the valid+nonsense combinations that would obviously not be part of the code to a human.

Well, I've had enough for tonight.  I think I'll try my hand at photoshopping something with puppies tomorrow, seeing as I have two cute dogs (one of whom is sitting on my arm...), and moderate photoshop skills.  If only I could find sheet music for some of the music from planetside 1.  I'm a pretty damn good bass clarinet player.

*sigh* Still no beta key, without resorting to shenanigans. So... anybody play PS1?

PS1 accounts automaticly will be granted early access to beta. You dont need a key.

Also, if you aren't following @NaniteSystems on twitter (or your twitter is spammed all to hell), you may be interested in this. A few days ago I asked this (and received a response):

@NaniteSystems Can ECM be installed in your aircraft (besides chaff) to jam the guidance systems of missiles or prevent lock-on?

The response:

@Trafalgard aircraft can be equipped with a wide range of anti-lockon or jamming sys. Most are post factory add-ons

Knowing that, and having a feeling that NC is going to get more zergy players less willing to cooperate and coordinate, and that they are more hated than any other faction (on Planetside Universe's forums, anyways), I'm fairly sure I'm going Vanu.

Exactly... I was considering subscribing. But, not if nobody is playing it.

That's the email I got when I entered a valid code.

That's the same email I got when I entered the key. In addition under memberships I believe it lists Planetside 2 as Active.

Also, For The Vanu! Bringing Humanity forward, by force is necessary!
