Title: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on July 03, 2008, 08:30:53 AM The application has been submitted. You'll receive an e-mail for it. I have no idea what it says or what's in it, but I do know it'll ask you to fill out a beta application.
You must fill out this application to be added into the guild beta under Bat Country. If you don't receive an e-mail, well, shit. Seriously, there's nothing that can be done to fix that. There's no way to add, remove or fix the e-mails you submitted with the application. I copied your e-mails straight from the PMs sent to me, so you only have yourself to blame. Either way, let me know if you don't get the e-mail within the next day or two. There's no date on when they'll start, so just hang tight and hope we get in. DISCLAIMER: This is not done through Schild. There is NO guarantee we get in. We're signing up like everyone else does. NOTE: There's a 50 person limit invitation per guild. Going to keep track of who I get PM's from and submitted with the application: Veredus Hoax Miasma Engels jlwilli5 Lanei Cadaverine Mrbloodworth Falconeer Fuser Viin Lantyssa Mwerevu Lac Schild SnakeCharmer Azerphire Ribuld Draegan Gets Stark Baldrake JoeTF UnSub Kallidain FatuousTwat Signe Quinton Azaroth Hoth Phred Speedbrusher Slayerik Bhodikhan Acerogue26 Sparky Murdoc Nerf Chenghiz Nightshade Surlyboi Xerapis Morfiend Etro Salamok Hawkbit Amarr HM Logik Jamiko Big Gulp Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: jlwilli5 on July 03, 2008, 09:03:36 AM Interested

Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on July 03, 2008, 11:32:02 AM Yar. I don't know if that means you want in. If it does, send a PM with your e-mail. I updated the list and realized I need to put a date on this thing, but I'm not too sure how long is sufficient to give everyone time to see the post and send me a PM. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: schild on July 03, 2008, 12:14:42 PM Meh, fuckit, you can add me to the list and tell them that you're running the f13 guild beta as Bat Country. Consider it official. Email address is in my profile.

I'm using their bandwidth to download the files, maybe dink around a little, then drop it cold a few weeks later.Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Trippy on July 03, 2008, 05:46:42 PM Yeah but then they can go to publishers and investors and say "look how many people are playing our beta, give us some money plz".
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on July 03, 2008, 06:33:59 PM I'd be interested in checking it out. So you should PM me with your E-mail! Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: FatuousTwat on July 03, 2008, 07:12:04 PM Very interested... PM is otw.

I haven't signed up for the beta though, which I'm assuming I won't have to now (assuming we get in). Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on July 03, 2008, 11:56:41 PM For those that can't count from the list, we're at 30.

If I only played games from companies that didn't release at least one horrible MMO all I could play is WoW.Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Slayerik on July 04, 2008, 06:31:27 AM Sign me up, Nixxy Poo

Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: schild on July 04, 2008, 09:37:23 AM Yeah but then they can go to publishers and investors and say "look how many people are playing our beta, give us some money plz". It's not our fault if investors don't read the internet, particularly f13, AFTER we play a game. We can't be held accountable for stupid people with stupid amounts of money. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Sparky on July 04, 2008, 03:03:44 PM PM sent, this is the only upcoming MMO I'm interested in

Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Viin on July 06, 2008, 03:39:17 PM The link in the email just asked me for my name, location, and birthdate. Not the full beta app that I filled out previously.

Not the full beta app that I filled out previously. All it does is put a name to the people under the guild app itself. They explain it as mine being the "parent" application and the other 50 being "child" applications.

I still wake up screaming a couple of times a month from NetDevil beta related PTSD. Holy FUCK did Auto Assault blow.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Falconeer on July 07, 2008, 03:58:32 PM I miss Auto Assault :cry2:

Also, where the fuck is my beta? Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: FatuousTwat on July 16, 2008, 09:28:05 PM Good question. Still looking forward to it. I need a game to distract me from my cripplingly boring life.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: slog on July 23, 2008, 01:59:41 PM Interesting interview with NetDevil here
http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=19479 Quote We really feel like, to be honest, when you go to beta is when you launch. You have to have that approach. It can't crash. The framerate's got to be good. It's got to be simple. The download's got to be small. All of these things add up to losing players. We've tried to make sure that...I'm hoping that beta's not about bugs and crashing servers. It's about balance. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Sir T on July 23, 2008, 03:23:52 PM Saw an interview with PC gamer last month where they said Jumpgate is ready to go now but they are sitting down and tweaking the hell out of it. I'm paraphrasing from memory here but what he said was something like
"Making games is all I know. If this fails I thats it. We decided that we have to make this great or theres no point" Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Mrbloodworth on July 24, 2008, 06:32:59 AM Interesting interview with NetDevil here http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=19479 Quote We really feel like, to be honest, when you go to beta is when you launch.

We've tried to make sure that...I'm hoping that beta's not about bugs and crashing servers. It's about balance. Here is the part that grabbed me in that. Quote And I think now what we're trying to say is, "If we can't do it great, let's just not do it yet," and we'll focus on a smaller features set enough where we feel like it's going to be a full game experience. I mean, you've got auction and mail and all the stuff you would expect from an MMO, but like you said, there's no getting out of your ship and there's no walking around. There's no hanging out in the space bar, which sounds really cool and fun, but it's sort of beyond the scope of what we can do for the first version. Our goal here is to get something out there that people love enough that we can continue to build it for a long, long time. If it turns out that avatars is what everybody wants, then that's what we'll do next. Or if flying down on planets is what everybody wants, then that's what we'll do next. We'll just go whichever way people want it to go once we bring it live. I will hold them to that. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Draegan on July 24, 2008, 07:21:55 AM This stood out to me:
Quote Iteration is a huge buzzword right now, but it's also a very important concept, because people are finding that they're able to create much more polished game experiences through quickly iterating on their ideas. SB: For instance, just getting someone to successfully, in a blind test, sit down and play the first mission and succeed - I thought in four or five iterations, we'd figure out all this stuff and be able to take it from there. It took over a hundred. It took a hundred times of, "Oh, they're confused here. Maybe we should bring this help popup a little bit sooner, or maybe those two came up too soon, so they ignored the second one." It's that kind of little stuff - like when they want to equip, one person double-clicks and expects it to equip. One person drags and drops and expects it to equip. So you have to support all of those modes. It's that kind of little things you can't put as a bullet point on a box, but I think that's all the difference in the world between a great play session and a game you don't play anymore. We've spent a lot of time working on those kinds of details. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Viin on July 24, 2008, 08:16:34 AM Yay, Agile Development wtf. Now the question is, are they really doing agile development or some bastard devil grown version hacked up at a cocktail party while hyped up on coke?
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: HaemishM on July 24, 2008, 08:24:38 AM They made Auto Assault. They can't afford coke.
So it's obviously crack. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: grunk on August 11, 2008, 07:18:59 PM ... can i get in? :pedobear:
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: LC on August 11, 2008, 07:30:17 PM ... can i get in? :pedobear: No If it's anything like the previous Jumpgate or Auto Assault, you can just go dive into a pile of rusty metal scraps with sharp edges smeared with human feces. You will get the same experience as the beta testers. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Amarr HM on October 12, 2008, 05:09:30 AM Did anyone get word on this ?
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Draegan on October 12, 2008, 07:01:57 AM I'd guess that it would of been posted if anything happened.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Amarr HM on October 12, 2008, 07:42:13 AM Good point but worth checking just in case there was some sort of response and I missed it, I just applied for the beta and then remembered about this thread.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Gets on October 12, 2008, 10:17:50 AM It is worth keeping your ear as close to the ground these days to listen to any hint of a beta you could get into. When I tried getting into WAR open beta when it started I was, to my own surprise, already late with getting access. Coupled with almost no selection of client download options, having to poke guildmates who live overseas for a key and the European beta screw-up I managed to get in the server and stay logged in for less than a minute before everything closed permanently until release. That's why I hope Google decides to make a good MMO next. That thing would be in beta stage for at least half a decade!
With Jumpgate Evolution, I hope the guild beta will be the initial chance for the public to get their first hands on a control stick. Even with a predictable rough start the first experience will less likely be a bore if we have a bunch of other eager cockpit bravos to pew pew with. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on December 18, 2008, 12:20:49 PM Bump!
Just got an e-mail stating that I can see who actually replied to the guild e-mails and verified their participation in the guild beta. There are 5 people who never verified, but because they're only e-mails, I have no idea who they are with the exception of one, which is Surlyboi. I'll go through the painful process of re-adding them so they get the verification e-mail again, but I'm only giving it two days for them to reply. Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Lantyssa on December 18, 2008, 01:14:45 PM When did these go out? I never got anything. Or are they only letting in part of the 50?
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Morfiend on December 18, 2008, 01:50:57 PM I'm on the list, and I dont know if I got an email or not. If I did I would have filled it out. Should I be in the beta by now?
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on December 18, 2008, 02:13:41 PM Err, beta hasn't started. They're just letting guild leaders manage their list of participants. If anyone wants me to check against the list, just PM me with your e-mail and I'll let you know if you were put in or not.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Lantyssa on December 18, 2008, 02:32:13 PM Oh. So you mean the e-mail they sent back in July? That I got the notice you signed me up for.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on December 18, 2008, 02:42:03 PM Yeah, if you got the notice and filled in the tiny bit of info about you, you're on the list.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: UnSub on December 18, 2008, 04:37:30 PM Pretty sure I verified.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: FatuousTwat on December 19, 2008, 09:25:26 PM Apparently I was the first to be verified.
That's right... IN YOUR GUYS FACES! Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: schild on December 19, 2008, 09:33:05 PM I have no clue what's happening.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on December 19, 2008, 11:12:15 PM I have no clue what's happening. Or do you?Anyway, 4 slots are up for grabs. First 4 people to PM me get it.

Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Xerapis on December 23, 2008, 05:21:50 PM You know, I'm tired of "limey."
Aren't there any other hateful words for those ass-licking, cock-sucking, motherfucking, shit-eating descendants of Shakespeare, Shelley and Keats?

Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on February 17, 2009, 05:12:41 AM Absolutely nothing so far. I'll shoot off an e-mail and see if I can get an update. My guess is that it won't start until somewhere around Summer.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Draegan on February 17, 2009, 07:41:38 AM I don't think they even know when beta is going to start yet.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on February 17, 2009, 08:16:32 AM Yeah, they've stated that beta isn't about having players test things that are obviously broken.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: Morfiend on February 18, 2009, 01:31:15 PM I just saw on Gamestop they have this listed as 3/3 release date. I'm guessing thats not going to happen.
Title: Re: JumpGate Evolution Guild Beta Post by: NiX on February 18, 2009, 08:52:22 PM Most EB dates aren't to be trusted. Especially if the beta hasn't started.
