» Sat Jun 16, 2012 4:05 am

Well for us peep's who didn't get into the beta there is root beer over there and cookies.

Thanks but I'll drown myself in Rits Bits.

Hehe,So less then 1% Got the beta today,and they sent 75% of the codes and they said tomorrow they will send out the rest o.o
So nothing tomorrow? haha x)

Sooooo done with BETH >.<

So i guess all those Cookies i sent Todd were for nothing. I guess i should've just given him a blow torch. Y'know, to fix that rust on his car.

Someone tweet BGS. I need proper confirmation on US only.

Has anyone gotten a code outside of USA?

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 6:34 am

Hey Bethesda, this should be done next time: http://memegenerator.net/instance/21886697

OMG WHY?!?!?

im seriously not believing all of these people that are this upset... REALLY?!?!?

At least now you get to hover on over to Gamefaqs and the Wikis and learn all you can about Dawnguard and plan your game out. At least youre not suffering from anything possibly game breaking the next few weeks.

This was a special service that Bethesda did for the fans that will benefit their research... give it up.

I am wondering how many "laymans" have made it in however.

Congrats to the winners and good luck to those who are going to spamming their refresh keys on their email accounts tomorrow!

If information leaks, they gon' get sued.

As quoted by BGS on Twitter: "About 75% of our invites have gone out. The rest will go out tomorrow."

I can understand choosing a small number of people, but 1/2 of 1%? And after opening it and advertising it to the public? Meh I can't see into bethesdas minds. They gave me good fallout games and elder scrolls, so I guess it's best not to question it :/

Marketing pure and simple. There will still be bugs and undoubtedly some game breakers because Bethesda aren't good at fixing those things.

Nah not mad, just gonna laugh when half of the people picked are probley not even going to report bugs, most of them probley only signed up to get Early Access to the DLC and Laugh at every one else who doesn't get into it. :confused:

ummm... yeah, youre mad then...

get over it, be happy its only two weeks away and not August

you havnt really been too active on the boards it seems, maybe that was taken into account, maybe they saw you had been a member for so long and that you havnt posted but 40 messages... that would make me want to hand you a beta code

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 1:24 am

Fug it I'm out, gotta get the money together for Dawnguard, what do you know I already have enough, that was easy, just feel bad I can't help out... and get whats rightfully mine

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 8:32 pm

I Knew people would get dissapointed and sad x)
I didnt expect to get anything,But worth a try,And dont be sad,On the 26th we will almost get a bug free DLC( if the beta testers does their job)
And i would also like to know if today was US only

As quoted by BGS on Twitter: "About 75% of our invites have gone out. The rest will go out tomorrow."

That seems like such a small amount, for so much free publicity. :/

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 7:56 pm

Just got the email with my code, but...is there a thread or forum yet for reporting my experiences with the beta? I don't see anything anywhere. Didn't want to make a thread about this, so I'm asking here.

edit: nevermind, found the link to the beta forum in my email.

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 5:03 am

I honestly don't see the big hype for this DLC. Yeah it will be awesome, but its not going to be anything like the amount of content we got from SI. This DLC will take less than a week to completely run dry. I'm more excited to actually help Bethesda bug test (since they obviously need it) than play the dlc itself.

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 9:40 am

It's the devs master plan every one knows they feed off of tears of their fans

Tbh I'm not sad about not being picked because I knew my chances happen to be really really really slim with how many people have been waiting for this.

and beth has got what they wanted besides tears to feed off of ofc more hype for their dlc

That might be due to that person likes to just look at all the topics people posted, and they also wanted to play the game, go to school, have a job, or look at other website forums? >.>

They said board participation was not considered

It might be US only so we had no chance in the first place.

Has anyone gotten a code outside of USA?

At present all those I've spoken to are US. Doesn't look good.

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 8:45 pm

Hey Gstaff!

Hope the Beta goes well!

but I gotta wonder, why advertise the beta so heavily if you only needed so few people?

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 3:02 am

Someone tweet BGS. I need proper confirmation on US only.

Why? If its split between U.S. and non-U.S., then there is no hope for anyone else in the U.S. If its not just U.S., I'll imagine you would be more-so dissapointed. It should remain a mystery.

Says the guy with the money, hey, some people here do have time and don't have money to access the DLC because of problems. They really looked forward to testing it.

Ho ho, posting a lot in the forums has nothing to do with it, i've played betas were atleast the company picked a good 100+ people to test it so they got more results, not -20 people. It shows how this company doesn't want that "Big amount" of results. I can see there being bugs right when the DLC comes out :devil:

info always leaks, its gonna take one person with a proxy to feel safe enough to do it. Dawnguard will be completely spoiled for all of us in 4 days... im calling it

like i already said, im more than fine with it... i just started my Dawnguard build and I want to do quite a bit RP wise before I get inducted into the hall of vampire slayer badassitude...

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 2:15 am

I just cannot play any game at all.
