Well, I guess that's 2/3rds of the sign-ups right there. Ageist FTW!

The odds are now for ever in my favor!

I think it's because you're signing a "contract" in a way to not release any information in a private beta...Public ones it doesn't matter if you release information, considering it's there for everyone to see anyway...I dunno...

Correct. Private betas usually fall under an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) that basically has you agree you aren't going to tell anyone about the magical things you've seen. Because this is a legal agreement, it can only be made by those 18 and older.

But seriously, who would know if you'd used a fake age to sign up? It's not like Sony has any way of actually checking, so I guess it's pointless anyway.

I think Sony will have bigger problem letting you in underage, since they made invalid "contract" since they can't do that in legal law, all they can do is cut you from beta, since its only againsts PSN beta aggredment. Not big deal as long as you not break NDA, so if you cheat you better stay quiet about it and follow NDA, specially that there people who chose players are visiting here ;p

Besides no body say that there will be NDA (or else i missed something), i don't really see point of NDA or else they have some marketing plans or plan to hold it in whole beta, lifting NDA after makes that NDA pointless since content is exposed anyway orelse they been holding for some reason.

I think Sony do timed NDA in LBP case they do it for boom effect, at beginning there really nothing to show and can make some negative opinions, when they lift NDA there lot of content that appears outside which then they use for promotion of the game.

Okay random question for all of you...

Are you going to buy LBP Vita as a physical copy or a digital copy? I think I'm going to go with physical. I heard that you don't really own digital games and don't like the sound of that. Plus who doesn't want to hold LBP Vita in their hands?

the reason for an NDA at the start of a beta is in case there is a game breaking bug, they wouldnt want talk, videos or pictures of that kind of thing all over the internet. at the very least i'd expect a an NDA to b in place for a week or so, but with an NDA they normally keep the beta with a smaller group of testers

well you dont actually own the game with a physical version either, just a license to play said game. however if you buy the digital version you are allowed to back it up to your ps3 and pc (maybe not seperatly ) or redownload from the store at any time. if anything happens to the disc you're screwed

Anyone here actually GET the beta today? Or is that stuff supposed to be confidential?

If it's anything like the lbp2 beta... I wouldn't get my hopes up that SCEA releases the beta codes anytime soon. I felt sorry for our American friends as by the time they got in most of the bugs had been reported extensively (not that that's a bad thing of course) So a few weeks would be a drastic improvment... but hopefully it will be out soon for all.

But as to why its so spread out... its just how betas go. New features come online through updates which may require a larger testing pool, also it gradually tests stress on the servers... that kind of thing.

As to the matter of secrecy, you can say you're in a beta... just not what features are in the beta until the developers tell you it's ok to or you reach an expiration date on the NDA.

Have a good time to all those who get in, happy bug hunting.

my hopes of getting in were extremely dashed when I read the beta regulations stating that a beta participant needs to be a master account (my vita account (the account I posted to the beta sign up) is a sub-account)

Hullo,

Only a tiny, tiny fraction of the number of invites that will be send out over the next few weeks were send out yesterday. This was done to test run the servers. A lot(!) more will be send out shortly. To both, Europe and North America.

So many people mistakenly associate the word "Beta" with the phrase "Getting the game early"

This is a testing phase people. Don't psych out about this. It's only a beta.

there is only a small group that have the beta right now, most of this group have worked with NDAs and kept to them for years. i'd imagine they wont invite heaps more people till they are ready to lift the NDA

I know it's not "getting the game early". I just really want to play around with the new tools, especially the memorizor. I'm a logic geek... who could be better for looking for bugs? I would still be missing out on the story mode, music, and other content though.

The memorizer is definitely one of the biggest breakthrough tools in Vita. Definitely adds a lot to level series and the continuity between levels.

I think people get over obsessed with "Beta is for having fun, it to find bugs", i bet they don't even expect most of this people they invite to return any feedback, if they want sure feedback ;p there also other reasons for beta:

-Get random factor in to development which is player, except random bugs finding, players also produce random traffic which allows to test servers, produce random data which allows to test lot of aspect of the game, produce more accurate normal use statistical data. Things that are not much possible to do with group of people lower then 100 which are more busy developing game anyway.
-In LBP especially, promotion. It's hard to promote community aspects of the game without a community, specially that thereuser generated content, if you look on LBP2 ads in 90% of them showed beta user content.

Either way, don't get too serious about finding bugs, even if you not doing that, if you not even creating anything, by playing and having fun you causing traffic and already helping them anyway.

I think most impotent selection key here is people who actually be active not just play once to check and go away, thats why for example they picked most active people in LBP1 to LBP2 beta


there is only a small group that have the beta right now, most of this group have worked with NDAs and kept to them for years. i'd imagine they wont invite heaps more people till they are ready to lift the NDA

Syroc said page ago that they just using that group to test out server so there wont be situation where people get invited and things don't work :>

I think it's amazing how alike LBPV looks like LBP2, unlike the PSP version which looked like baby turds. Nah I kid, it looks great though Can't wait to get my hands on it!

Did he actually violate anything, though? Seems like everything he had to say about the game was positive.
And I think everything he had mentioned was already confirmed to be in the game anyway.

I contacted Steven earlier today and he said not to worry about it. He said it wasn't too massive of a problem and the NDA wasn't too strict.

The NDA we have neither seen or accepted?!? It can't apply to anyone here...if there's a problem it's between Sony and the original poster.

It's not in a fansite's interest to propagate NDA violations so they'll have to moderate you if you're posting stuff that isn't supposed to be posted. We may not have seen the NDA ourselves, but we all know that the first rule of Beta Club is you do not talk about Beta Club. 2012-05-23 22:09:00

The NDA we have neither seen or accepted?!? It can't apply to anyone here...if there's a problem it's between Sony and the original poster.

A very fair point, none of us ever agreed to its NDA. However, its common sense that it says you arent supposed to reveal information about the beta that hasnt been announced yet. You nor I have agreed to it, but we both know the main rule, and out of common courtesy you should go along with it anyway, as will I.

i'm assuming that the NDA in the beta will be the same as in the jam. so we should be able to post pics of logic and anything we make personally, but nothing to do with story mode...?

that's if any of us get in the beta in the first place

Well, if people will just be patient and wait for the actual invite, they'll know exactly was is and is not allowed...no point speculating.

They did say "please". I myself will submit out of courtesy. Nonetheless, your post certainly matches your nick.


Who what? Someone said my name?! I didn't do it?!



Also let's place bets. The traffic to this thread will drop exceptionally quick as soon as beta keys are properly distributed?

One thing I'd like to know about the beta is about how big the download is. I'm being a cheapskate and only have the 4GB memory card. I am willing to buy a bigger one, if I have to but only if I have to. I figure I can just move everything to my PS3 and download the beta stuff. Needless to say, I'm buying the retail LBP.2012-05-24 05:47:00

I hope I get chosen but if not, I still have an LBP2 level I can work on.

The art style and design of this game sure pops out at you, IMO it has a bit more perspective than its predecessors. It's like the Before-LBP LBP. You could place stuff in more than three layers, although I don't think you can in this game. Sure looking forward to it. It has so much character and looks like a lot of work and time was put into it. It seriously looks fantastic.
Seriously. Not bad.

Hey you crazy obsessed LBP Vita addicts, you'll enjoy this. More footage!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BxvQBZMz4E&feature=youtu.be

Aw dang it... I'm too late you guys already found it.


1:03 check out those thorn decorations. sweeeeet!



Also I have a question. This video looks fantastic and all, but what can we expect with the games graphics? I've been disappointed every time with the vita whenever a game comes out. The graphics look great in the trailers, then I get the game and the anti-alising is way down, there's rough edges everywhere, and it just looks washed out and ugly. *Cough * mortal kombat *Cough cough* resistance burning skies


Will Tarsier be addressing this issue and actually make a game that stands up against the PS3? Or will I be embarassed to show my friends that even LBP Vita hasn't justified my $300 Vita purchase...........

I know you've probably seen this, but maybe it'll remind you how the actual gameplay footage looks like.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lzeA_VsveQ

Keep in mind that is just a demo, and the graphics are probably improved greatly by now. I'd say it doesn't look too shabby.

Especially compared to the pixelated mess that was LBP PSP :kz: (kidding)

EDIT: Also I got to say, I REALLY like the new box art! Good job to whoever designed it.

You really shouldn't use link shorteners, when possible. There aren't many good reasons to want to obscure where they are leading. And trust me, they don't charge by the character here at LBPC.

I actually didn't use any think shortener, I copied the link that was at the top of the page. I may of copied the link from my twitter feed which shortens it automatically, possibly? I don't remember, I just know I didn't intentionally use any link shortener.

@Brapp

Gameplay videos of people who got it early (I don't know how they got it) but it runs poorly and looks mediocre. I may still get it if that was just a beta or something because I had high hopes for the first FPS game on the vita...

Mortal Kombat is great on vita.. but looks very noticably inferior to the PS3 version. Even though people in reviews claimed that people would barely notice. No..no it's VERY noticable...

It's not obvious that they won't send keys out this weekend, they most definitely did for the NA LBP2 beta And when that comment was posted, it was Thursday so they could of had that night and today, Friday, to send the keys out, which they are not going to.

It's always the same words. 'Soon', 'Shouldn't be long', 'It's coming'. We've been waiting for LBP news for months and finally the beta gave us something to look forward to. I don't get why we're being left in the dark for this too, I wish they could tell us the dates the invites are being sent out. We're already halfway through the year and don't even know what month the game is releasing. 2012-05-28 00:03:00

It's not a big deal. You have LBP2 right? Just play that in the mean time. It shoudn't be much different. When Tarsier studios is done with LBP Vita then they'll release more info, they clearly are busy with something important at the moment.

Brapp do you have a vita?

Do you have LBP1 or LBP2?

If you answered yes to both of those questions, I'm almost 90% positive you'll get into the beta

Well think of it this way, how many LBP players own a vita? Not very many.

How many LBP players who own the vita know about the beta or even care about LBP Vita, probably a very large sum (for some reason)


Now the amount of players who have LBP1 or LBP2 AND a Vita AND are interested in the beta is probably the smallest of all these percentages. Therefore there is a bigger window for you Brapp to be one of the lucky few who gets into the beta. Unless they're making the beta only available to like...50 some players..which.. would suck.

My guess is there will be at least 500 beta invites which is more than enough for all of us who just have everything.

But that's a metric pain in my bung. To do so I'd have to create a new e-mail account - since my other main e-mail is tied up with a different PSN - and then maintain THAT, etc.

I'd rather guess at my password over and over.

Have you redeemed the code, started up LBP Vita, and accessed LBP Vita's online? Not doing those might be the problem, or there might be a delay in you account's activation for access to the forums

But my cousin does have one. And he barely plays LBP. It's just really upsetting. If somebody has a key. I beg you. <32012-05-28 16:54:00

THANKS TARSIER! you've made a grown man cry. what am I going to tell my starving children now? it took me three years to save up for my Vita which meant me going for weeks without food, and now the only thing that gives my life any purpose has been cruelly taken away. i'm too weak and too thin to be bitter, but once I eat a slice of bread i'm sure i will be able to muster one salty tear.2012-05-28 17:30:00

I have one question. Just one. Do you need to have checked all the 3 boxes of the game you played. Because i made a stupid mistake by misclicking the box and just sending it in without "proofchecking" Anyway, refresh refresh refresh refresh.

Yeah, very true! Just about all the bugs will be patched by the time we are playing the beta. Most of the bugs I found were already reported by the time I was finding stuff.

Today is Memorial day in the U.S. I doubt invites will be today, it being a holiday.

It would be painfully ironic if I get a beta key tomorrow. The day Resistance Burning Skies, Pure Chess, and the Gravity Rush demo comes out.

I would need to clone myself, and buy a couple more Vitas just to keep up with all the goodness.

LOL! No they will not. Remember LBP2 beta? We got shafted again when we finally got it because they gave us the OLD broken version and said "Don't report bugs.. we know that version is broken"

Personally, I don't care if you show it to your friends and family as long as you can make sure they don't write about it on the internet or elsewhere where their thoughts and opinions are publicly viewable.

That's just my personal opinion, though!

I seriously doubt they're going to know or care if you're exposing the beta's beauty to an unlisted soul. And I also doubt that soul is going to barf the knowledge all over YouTube or something, snatching up a million views in an hour, like a hangover caught on tape after New Years.
Plus, there's always that "If I tell you, I'd have to KILL you" barrier you could set. Like a shpyyy.

Urrggh.. why would someone feel the need to post a question like this.

Betas NDA is simple. Just don't go spoiling content or features that could hurt a games release sales when it's officially released. If you say something in the game is broken and a reviewer picks it up, then his review will be biased therefore greatly affecting unit sales.


In other words, keep your mouth shut if you get in the beta and avoid publicly showing anything that happens in it. You are there to HELP the company sell the game, not to decline estimated sales.... It's all about money



On another note, eagerly waiting to help test this game out. I plan on giving very detailed reviews for anything and everything in the game. Also have an idea of what kinda level I'll create using that new rain tool

Kinda off-topic, but I had issues with Frobisher Says too. Waited 25 mins for it to delete, and eventually gave up and forced the Vita off.

All I can think of doing to fix your issue might be to completely restore the Vita, and then format the memory card.

yeah, he showed all the playable levels and create mode in 1080p. luckily he was terrible at it so you never saw anything too revealing. there were things but i'm keeping quiet on those. i was waiting for him to go to his own moon but when he did i couldn't quite make out his name properly. that's another reason i wasn't sure about reporting him... and i also don't know if it may have been a level he downloaded

Not all of them were, i remember some spanish kid with an ugly costume posted almost a hundred videos, recording levels, create tutorials etc. and did everything he could to hid his PSN. I remember talking to CC about it, unfortunatly the NDA was soon lifted so they stopped pursuing him and he got away with it. Once i got in i realized LBP2 beta had a working LBP.me, which people could've used to track him down (By comparing his score and time the video was uploaded).

So if there is a Beta Vita LBP.me (obviously no one can answer this for me with the NDA) like LBP2 did, you beta testers may be able to track him down.

EDIT: Just realized other possible ways to track him down, if like on LBP2, Vita has a recent activity section (in peoples profiles, or for a level), Beta testers could try that to find him.
