| Today :: CoD4 BETA Sign-ups :: Today! SIGNUPS START TONIGHT!!! (8/21)
News as of 8/20 Charlie Oscar Delta Quote: Preamble:
We worked hard to get this beta done July 26th. Since then we've been working on logistical issues, MS cert, what would be involved to make everything work internationally, number of keys, and a bunch of other boring non-game stuff. Most of it is just related to being the first 3rd party console game to offer a beta.
Now there are even more logistical issues coming up. Streetwise is pumping up their servers in an effort for charlieoscardelta to be able to handle the beta traffic. Additionally, since they are testing the new servers right now they can't really update them. So putting up countdowns, changing and testing the scripts to gather info for tokens, etc would have to wait a bit. 24 hour notice:
But we've been playing the beta internally, and it's so much fun we are dying to play with you. So... let's blow off waiting for the site and just consider this the countdown -- there will be a way for people to register for the beta starting 5pm PST tomorrow. Some of those will be playing as early as tomorrow night.. tick tock tick tock. The roll out:
The beta is going to roll out in waves. Rather than just putting a million people in the beta and hope nothing goes wrong, we will ramp up the playercount over time.
As fourzerotwo mentioned, right now some friends/family are testing. The press will be joining in the next couple days -- including those of you who make it into the first wave.
No worries if you aren't in the very first wave (most won't be), we should have a new wave of players every day or so as we ramp up.
Details on how to register for your chance to be in the beta will be posted tomorrow at 5pm PST*. So stay tuned for details, it will be a limited time offer.
*= this may not be the only way to ever get in the beta, but it is the way to have a chance to get in the early waves.
| Seems that IW learned something from the Halo3 beta in the fact that they're having ppl register/play the beta in "waves" of ppl to avoid server crashing. Great Idea by IW. Also, I wonder how we will be able to sign up for the beta tomorrow at 5pm PST
CANT FREAKIN WAIT
