EA has revealed that Battlefield Heroes will begin beta testing on 6th May.

Sign-ups will be handled over on the official site once it's ready, and the full game is set to launch in the third-quarter of this year.

That looks damn fun. :O

Man, I can only imagine the zany shit we could get into.

So I looked at the website and it hasn't changed yet. I did notice it said it will be a closed beta. Either it's for the people with no lives in clans or you may get a code in the newsleter. Regardless, I would subscribe to the newsletter just in case.

fileplanet subscribers.....:hmph:

wtf is battlefield heros?

 

[jimbo118]

Thought it would be an announcement of the new BF3 or sumit. Careometer recedes.

Last 3 posters didn't even read a shred of info on the game. Anywho the beta isn't out but they put this out:

Hello Heroes!

As you may have noticed, you killed our website. We are not angry. We?re very pleased you want to be in the Beta.

The beta for Heroes will be divided into several stages, the first of which is all about testing out this new way of getting games to you all; by downloading and installing them from a website. We?ll also be trying out some other dull stuff to do with servers, so we are expecting the systems to be down as much as they are up.

To help us track down all the technical issues, we have asked a third party to find us some specialist Beta testers. We are doing all this because we want to be sure that when we launch Heroes, everything will work smoothly.

So hang in there! We will announce here when it?s time to sign up for the public stage of the Beta.

 

[Lucid]

Oh shit it's already May 6th, didn't even realize that. :O

 

[VictimOfScience]

I need in on this public beta.

 

[Shakermaker]

Anyone in the beta yet? I am in Greece at the moment typing on a computer that's about as old as Sparta, so I dread visiting the site.

 

[hool10]

No they havn't even mentioned a single thing yet. Nobody knows what is going on actually.

 

[Lucid]

It's almost been a week since that announcement about the closed beta. :|

I hope it happens soon.

 

[AiM]

zzz

Not a big loss, hopefully there's an open beta later on. Although tbh, my feeling is basically 'meh' over this game.

I think it's a beta tester forum or something.
When you go in there, there is a news section and it's the only part of the forum. I'll quote it:

First of all, thank you for your application to participate in the first Battlefield Heroes Beta.

Exciting times!

Now, for some things you will want to know:

1. All applications will be reviewed and Beta testers will be selected and added to the Beta test over time as more openings become available, so please be patient.
2. If selected, you will receive your Beta key and further instructions via e-mail.
3. Once in the beta, you will be given access to the Beta Testing forums where you will receive further instructions.


I'll be providing more info if and when it comes in.

Good luck!

[TCfromBN]

I signed up.

 

[Lucid]

I signed up about a week ago.

I sure hope I get in, I'm itching for a new MP game... CoD4's starting to lose its appeal.

 

[Stigmata]

I got into the beta today. I'm about to start playing.

****ing YES

 

[Lucid]

Damn you.

 

[Evo]

****ing ****er <3

 

[Pesmerga]

I have absolutely no care for this game

 

[Stigmata]

Oh no, not this shit again :dork:

 

[hool10]

LOL at Pesh. What sappy story did you come up with that you said to get in the beta? I said I tried out BF2142 beta, TF2 beta, etc. Oh and I wanted to play it with other members of halflife2.net. Guess that wasn't a good story. :angel:

 

[Lucid]

So any updates? Anybody else get in the beta and feel like spilling some beans?

 

[Evo]

Not heard anything

 

[Loke]

Me neither.

 

[Lucid]

Not sure if it means anything but, the BF Heroes beta forums are gone.

The server's account has been suspended, what the hell DICE/EA?

 

[Loke]

Just got in.

 

[CyberPitz]

That's...worrying, lol.

 

[hool10]

Just got in.

How?!

 

[Lucid]

I just got accepted! !!!!!

Downloading client.

 

[hool10]

Guys.....I think I got in the beta but idk. I very rarily got a spam e-mail in my junk mail folder called "QA BOSS" and I thought it really was spam. So I emptied the folder and it didn't send the e-mails to the trash bin which can still be retrieved. Crappy hotmail, lol. How do I know if I got into the beta or not?

 

[Lucid]

QA Boss is BF Heroes, retrieve that shit! :O :O:O:O:O:O

 

[hool10]

Oh ****! Is there any way though to like go into a website and find the key or something? There has got to be a way because that e-mail ain't coming back. *I think the first one was like 1-2 months ago.

 

[Lucid]

God damn, idk, email the guys.

The game is fun, but definitely isn't the BF we all know and love anymore.

 

[CyberPitz]

Man, I've been playing BF2 a bit again. That game pisses me off, but I love it too much.

Kinda wish I woulda gotten into this beta.
