If you read between the lines of some of the posters here, you get the impression they are in beta.  And we know some must be.

I always think they sit and laugh at all weird trolls posting here. But how many beta testers do you really think we have here? It will be fun when the NDA lifts.

 

 

 

Ops, pressed Enter before the poll was ready : (

How many beta tester?

1-3
4-7

 Id say very few if any at all.

Certainly none among the regular posters.

 

Once ur into the Beta u also get access to the Beta forums, and If u actually have anything u want to discuss about the game ur going to want to do it there, where people actually know what ur talking about.

 

A beta tester talking to us wouldnt really get anything out of it.

Heh thats funny dark. Beta forums are a mess of people complaining about just about every feature of this game. A lot of testers have given up and just no longer go there but come here to try and keep the fanboys honest. Hard for you to imagine but true, game wasnt even worth the time to test it.

It is obvious that there are quite a few, IMO.

I saw you yesterday around Heart of Eanna Daarco, or in Monkfield

 

My official answer is 0,  the DF beta is vaporware....

I have no idea of what you are talking about!

 

And yes, DF might be vaporware.

At least 1000, no more than 5000, with best guess around 2500 to 3000.

Edit from my post below:

Yeah, I misread the OP, thought he meant how many were in Beta now, not how many members of these forums were in Beta.

Hard to say on that factor. I'm thinking somewhere between 10-50, (active posters anyways) with the real number being more like 25 tops.

ROTF. 

 

I say a big fat ZERO!

There are a helluva lot of liars and people trying to decieve like their hero Tasos Flambouras however. 

Wishful thinkers perhaps?  Sounds better then outright LIARS I guess.

Funny how almost every fan of this game here has posted something trying to indicate they are in beta.  Pfftft.  We saw a lot of that with games like Dark and Light too, I remember all the posters telling how great that game was in beta, cuz they "KNEW but couldn't tell us why" lolz.

Heh you honestly cant put aside your hating to understand that there is 0 chance that no one on these boards are in beta?

Also I think kyleran may have misread and thought total number of people invited to beta...or he was just being funny =)

But yea...i hope you honestly dont believe no one here is in beta...cause there are a good amount

Hmm, let's just ask this.  If so many of the um fanboys are in the Df beta, Why the fuck are they here on these forums attacking skepticism constantly rather then playing their beloved game? 

Yes, I say ZERO.  Atleast zero of the fans trying to imply they are in the beta anyhow.

How many there are in beta, and actually post here?

- Really it doesn't matter because players can't post anything but opinions until the NDA is lifted.  I think a better solution would be to require people to log in to see sub forums that have NDA material.

 

How many are there in beta?

- No one knows for sure but apparently the beta forums give information out on the total # of characters that are created.  Last anyone ever reported on the number was 6k and with a max of 6 chars per beta account there would be a min of 1k testers.  That was a long time ago so who knows how many there are now.

The only ones claiming to be in the beta so far are haters.

Right and the Beta leak boards we all have access to just omits this.

 

I know there are some complaining about the towers going on today, but other then that there is very little that confirms ur tale.

Also ur constant use of extreemes are consistent with someone lying.

Like: people complaining about just about every feature of this game

And: game wasnt even worth the time to test it

 

Maybe ur telling the truth, I dont know, im just saying that it sounds like a lie.

There is a poster I know and trust who said (on another forum) he got an invite.
So, yeah, the Beta is real.

He is NOT a fanboi either.  Of any game.

 

But, sadly, he also said he was too busy so had not followed up on the offer... so i don't know what he would have thought of it.
