In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Maybe -BLAM- shirts again?

"The message just repeats, beta, beta, beta."

"Catchy, any idea what it means?"

Dear Community

"We regret not letting you into the beta"

"And we regret creating The Flood"

"And we most definitely regret that DeeJ smells like spoiled meat!"

"Hoo Rah!"

Yes, please. Don't tell anyone but a Nigerian Prince emailed me and I'll be rich soon, so I'll share money some with you.

I would imagine that they would encourage you to not to publicly announce that you've gotten an email in said email if you want to continue testing for them in the future.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

I just updated my responses :)

Im from Canada and I think it would be very inconvenient if we had to go to Bungie.


Some of the research stuff we're doing is or will be local, some won't. Sorry, can't be more specific than that.

I tested SWTOR last weekend.

I got to be a full time tester for SWTOR when the NDA was still up and I'm only 17.


I hate you. Most betas sadly exclude people who work in the games industry, so I didn't get into the SWTOR beta. Of course, I was planning to go Sith anyway, so my hatred won't go to waste.

I got into it twice and I couldn't play it both times. What a tease.

Does that mean that the Beta for Bungie's game will be very inclusive becuase being un-included sucks? :p

NO GROUP INVITES

I love friendly reminders! I also love how my survey answers have changed drastically since I last filled it out. Maybe writing a paragraph about why you want to test whatever it is would help narrow down some of the candidates. Just an idea.

Bungie's monkeys of death are coming, this is your only warning!!!!

So its fair to say no one outside of the USA will get a chance at this, beta testing?

I wouldn't say that, most Betas now a days are more like "demos" and can be downloaded on the console.

The anticipation is boiling i feel like something is going to happen, any month now.

I want her...

Surveys for everyone!

An elite band of test subjects may even be invited to visit Bungie and be subjected to a playtest of our next game.

Most likely international people will be excluded from that

It's not hard to make personal calls to Mr. Newell. It would be amazing expression of diplomacy between the studios to call and ask him for stickers.

Oh, and record the call for posterity.

Bungie the next Aperture Science


Bungie User Research: We do what we must, because we can.

I was seriously tempted to put these stickers on my lab door.

Imagine that Valve and Bungie combined together to make the most epic game that could ever exist, and together the communities shall crush all enemies and opposition against Bungies domination of the world Mwahahaha....
Oh yeah Valve will also have a say in everything, we are friends after all are we.....

http://esprl.com/index.php/more/gg-zone/blog/119-portal-2-val ve-authoring-tools-for-schools-newell-explains-
Oh yeah who would like this if it was implemented in their school.

Three things:

That team up would be amazing.

I wonder what Halo: Custom Edition and Valve's SDK looks like combined...

Wow! sold out

P.S. Does this mean Bungie gets their own Valve time? We could combine it and make Bunlve time!

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

I was one of the ones chosen for their old Bungie Beta tester thing, the one where the link didn't work and it got canceled. For that one they were all like, "We're going to pick random people, then survey them to see how they can help us." and for this one they're all like, "We're gong to survey everyone and pick out the people that can help us."

Eh still can't wait, plus it may be for different new aspects and trying to see what game mechanics are practical, so i believe when testing we should play it honestly as they need feedback plus these testing could be done via mini games, where they see how a certain aspect effects players and how they respond.

If this is like any of the lab experiments i have in university or one of those professional one i have to say they will have some really interesting results and the ability to make an amazing game from it.
