Will there be a thread to report the bugs when we get the BETA?
It will probably be some private forum, unless they have some other arrangement.

Are you in denial of not getting picked because you're a "senior forumer" and that they said they're not favoring to older fans? Seriously, stop being so selfish about it.

I don't care either way, I don't even consider myself a senior forumer... just pointing out that your asking a PR guy if there is any favoritism going on? Do you really expect anything other than no?

I just want people to be selected that will beta test, if not then why even have a beta...

There is a beta. Stop trying to make people think otherwise. It's pathetic.

Everyone is so determined to get a code, but do half of you actually intend on reporting bugs? i've seen it way to often that people want to get in a beta just to play it sooner than everyone else and they don't care about reporting bugs or any issues in the gameplay. I have been in 8 beta testings and would generally report no less than 10 issues a day. Beta testers shouldn't think that they are there just to play the game and see if they encounter a bug. A good beta tester should go in and try to break the game. When I'm in a beta test, I have a pen and paper beside me at all time to record everything about the bug/glitch/exploit. It's about making something awesome even better. Please, if you get into the beta testing, don't waste all of your time playing the game. Looks for issues, dig for them, do skill/spell combinations that you normally wouldn't do. TRY to break the game and report it.
I see no point in "trying" to break the game, but (if I get picked) will pay a lot of attention and IF I notice any game breaking or troublesome problems I'll report them. I think the whole point of THIS beta is to find any of the big problems that will happen during a regular playthrough, because I think those are the one's they want to get rid of first. I'm sure they'll appreciate any bug that gets reported to them but they just want regular gameplay to be fixed as soon as possible because tehy know a lot of the big problems can be in the way of a normal playthrough, not just because you put 7 thousand carrots in one barrel, or some other thing a long those lines.

So guys, do you think Dawnguard is going to be Archery based, and do you think the other DLC will focus on the certain weapon types?

I don't think it will be archery based, but archery will probably get the most new things, mainly becasue they only have bows and thats it right now.

Uhm yeah? I mean that is the point of a Beta. To release a beta build, get feedback, reports, etc, and then release the final product. Really no point in being in the Beta if you aren't reporting any bugs/glitches you find.

Chill out people, The codes aren't out yet (at least I don't think they are) so we still have a chance, but you need to remember to report ALL the glitches you find, no matter how big or small. What I have done with previous beta's is open an email to the company that put it out as I first start playing it (if you have desktop just jot down all the glitches you find and put them in an email later) and every glitch you find put in that email, and then save it. Keep doing that until the end of the day and send one massive email with all the glitches you found so then Bethesda doesn't have 100 emails that look like this:

I found a glitch where this tree by the tower loads all funny and dissapears if I'm looking at it a certain way... Sooooooo... yea
---

Hey just telling u that that tree will kill u somehow if you hit it with a mace
---

And a sword
---

You can also fall out of the map it if you jump onto the first branch of it from the tower
---

NM guys, that was just a loading error on my game, I left that place and came back and it was all there and didnt kill me anymore.
---




I can't imagine how annoying that would be to the person looking through all of these...
