Last lot of BETA invites going out today...

Archive: 39 posts


New update for you all...
[Update - October 8]
The final wave of emails to new European beta players has now been sent, and I'm waiting for confirmation from North America that theirs have sent as well. As before, forum access has already been granted to everyone who has been selected for this test, so you can check to see if you were selected by visiting the EU forums.

I'll update this post again once I've received confirmation that all emails have been sent.

Now please understand from this that there ARE N.A. invites going out, but Sam is waiting for confirmation this time as to hopefully avoid the confusion that happened with the last lot.

Now the BETA forum link if you would like to check to see if you have access is:

I think he said 500 from when he announced the 1st wave. But whew, I was thinking this last wave was just for Europeans, since there's gonna be both i still have a chance!

OMG I MADE IT!!!

Thanks so much MM... I've been waiting SO very long for this. I had already lost hope.

And to all those who didn't make it- I feel your pain. Whenever I applied for a beta for anything, I never made it, yet my friends always had an abundance of invites, sometimes even three or more. But me... I've never had one. I know how it feels.

However, I would cheer up! It's not like this is the last beta ever! So put a smile on and raise your chin, for there will be more betas and more chances to get in!

EDIT- Still waiting for email though. I live in the US

The invites that were meant to go out on the first are the ones getting sent out today. They were pushed back to today because of all the commotion over the original N.A. invites and them going out late.

Oh and I believe there were 500 going out today.

I think everyone that was chosen, whether they received an email or not, had access to the beta forums. I do, and I have yet to see an email in my inbox. Don't take my word for it, because I may be wrong.

I think it's safe to say that if you can't log into the beta forums, even if you're Canadian, European, American, Asian, or whatever, you weren't chosen.

EDIT- I just got my code! Can't wait to try it.

No, I really do feel your pain because a couple weeks ago when I though the last wave was sent out I didn't get it so I was pretty let down. Don't worry I'll do lots of bug busting to ensure it's good when you guys get it.

I did not, *Sigh* So does that mean that's it? Is that the last US/Canada invites going out?

This is RIDICULOUS.
It clearly has nothing to do with when you signed up. Some people who are getting in signed up a few days after.

Yea, that's the site where the beta forums are. They're on the European PS Forums.

And I guess Sage is the only Canadian of this wave...?

I got in from the first wave, 3 times delayed.

Oh, and to everyone who got in: Remember to test bugs. It's not just for fooling around, or the DLC. (You'd be surprised how many people just do this for the DLC...)

To anyone who didn't get in: Don't worry, everything we're testing will be added to the regular LBP soon enough. While the beta testing is fun, it's not nearly as fun as it will be when I can create online with my good PSN friends, racing boats...

Its random. But its not getting in I'm mad at, I'm mad at this....

Seems several people are sharing or giving away beta codes (I won't list who/where) Which gets me mad cause either those people either entered multiple accounts into the beta (and got selected more than once) or they got it soley to trade for free things

Well i thought i'd participate in some of the guys giving them away, figured it couldn't hurt, plus no way i'm trading. I'm not gonna get desperate in getting the beta, If I had to choose between my crown and the beta, even with the super rare costume item (again i won't mention it), I'll take my crown any day :hero:

1. if they were lucky enough to get more than one code, it's their choice what to do with the extra.
2. it's impossible to gameshare exclusive things like the beta.

No wait, i think they meant they were giving away there accounts that had the beta code on it...i can't remember. oh well it doesn't matter

But it still steams me, how me and a bunch of other honest gadders who only entered there once had no chance cause a bunch of jerk entered using so many accounts. Its like being in a Deathmatch when all you have is a pistol, and everyone has has machine guns and is against you. No honor, no fair, and just no fun.

This is the reason these threads tend to get locked, they turn out quite bitter.

To those who got in, congratulations! Don't boast about it too much though or you may find yourself with a few envious friends.

To those who didn't, I'm very sorry. There will be future tests so just hang in there and good luck next time!

For the sake of keeping things friendly, I'm going to lock this.
