Who tried for the Killzone 3 beta?

I have downloaded the necessary theme to have a chance to be in the Killzone 3 beta. Sat for 15 mins refreshing the store until it popped up, which it finally did around 20:02, according to my PS3 clock. Even got a half day off work to get home to catch it. Pity the theme is pretty crappy lol guess they needed the beta invite to get people to download it. Nothing to do now but keep my fingers crossed and hope for an e-mail. Hopefully I can contribute something useful towards the development of the multi-player, which is looking awesome!

Anyone else have a go?

yeah mine came up five mines late but i got in there i think virgin media said the themes were gone within 30mins so if you got the theme your mostlikely in

TheBalloMan5686d ago

lol, I tried for it like 3 hours after it went up, and I actually thought I had a chance :(

-Alpha5686d ago

I know I'm not getting in but it pisses me off that people are getting in by luck. I WANT to actually test the game's mechanics.

Anyways, good luck to you guys, and if you do get in, upload video? :P

Chaostar5686d ago

By luck? Is there a random draw also? Like I said, I took a half day from work to sit in front of my tv going in and out of the PS store to make sure I had a theme as soon as possible. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who did so and we weren't leaving anything to luck.

Hopefully I'll have my fancy new Android phone with 720p vid recording by then so yeah, I'll try and upload some vids and blog about it... if I got in.

What stopped you from having a go?

dangert125686d ago

thats sucks of you went on the blogs it told you what time is was going up uk time it was 8pm so i sat at my ps3 at 7.50pm refreshing had it by 8.05 that was a 15 min wait lol

-Alpha5686d ago

I'm not saying that you particularly didn't deserve it, just saying that it should have been awarded to people in the forums, top leaderboards, active players, etc. People who would actually leave feedback.

Chaostar5686d ago

Yeah it does seem fair to reward the fans but they also need people with no bias toward to game, chances are they would be a little more critical and honest. There was nothing stopping the official forum posters from doing the same as I did and I'm guessing they were informed ahead of time.

I personally will make sure to sign up and leave feedback should I get into the beta. Of course they could easily send out a quick e-mail asking people for their thoughts after/half way through the beta, I'm sure the majority would want their say.

@Danger12 I agree that if you didn't catch wind of the exact time it would have been difficult but if you are a fan and follow the news here or on the official forums then it's likely you heard well ahead of time, like you and me :)

Hideo_Kojima5676d ago

If they only picked the people from the www.killzone.com forum or active Killzone 2 players the only feedback they would get would be...

Its just like Killzone 2, I love it.

OR

Its nothing like Killzone 2, just change it back and don't listen to the CoD gamers.

I am sure they don't want to hear either of those. They want to evolve KZ3 and test out their new ideas.

If you are a big enough killzone fanatic and want to test the game, you will do what is necessary to get in the Beta and test it out. I got PS + on June 29th anticipating KZ3 will have an exclusive beta offer. We will have to wait and see how well the lucky 15,000 can provide feedback.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio11d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing11d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9211d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit11d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing11d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9211d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
