Tibolin Wargan HavoK Core 12	Posted - 2012.07.09 19:03:00 - [31] - Quote I understand your pain buddy, but the others are right, it is a beta. You should still contact TechSupport. Look on the bright side though, when the game does come out, you will have an equipment and AUR package that, if I remember right, will be worth 50$ when the game comes out. that's a pretty nice deal. But I can also understand your frustration about the beta, I woulden't be happy either... but it is a beta, and your "bug" as annoying as it may be, will help to improve the final product. So cheer up, you are getting gear on release that will cost new players 50$ to get.
Tibolin Wargan HavoK Core 12	Posted - 2012.07.09 19:04:00 - [32] - Quote Also if I understand right EVE was super buggy when it first came out, and look at it now.

The simple solution concocted by this community for all the issues present is a simple,"It's a beta bro. If the game doesn't work for you properly you are an idiot." While most of us try and bring light to issues, we are guaranteed to be flagged down by the brown nosers in the community. You just need to get used to it, some of them here have their heads so deep they refuse to realize there are issues here and anyone who tries to post about them are just "flaming, trolling, Talking ****, making fun, ect" according to the community. I thought the reason we were here was to "test" and bring light to issues, not flame testers for calling the game what it is, Broken. I guess since we don't play EVE, we just don't understand the concept of a FPS well enough to be taken seriously here. If you look through his post, he did say he played EVE. And you can't call the game broken, simply because it is a beta and as such isn't the finished product - a game. Think of it as a car without doors. You wouldn't call it broken simply because it's missing doors, it's just not finished. It still works, and you'd prefer to have doors, but you'd happily still use the car, no? Especially if you know that in a week's time, you'll know that it will have doors. Idk heres my problem with whats going on. Ill use your car reference to rebuttal. You say the car is missing doors, and to me that sounds like a major issue. The issue is brought up over and over again, but the same two answers keep coming up. 1. (Developers) We are working on designing doors at this moment, soonGäó. 2. (Community) Its just a prototype, the real version of the car will have gold plated doors with 17 different cool things. THis is what i imagine the car will have so it will definitely have them. While the door issue is something that will hurt drivability (gameplay), nothing seems to be done about it. All the while the manufacturer is beating around the bush by adding chrome trim to the dashboard(backwards walking in merc quarters), and an extra cup holder in the center console (more guns and modules) to try and distract from the fact that the car still has no doors and is unsafe to drive. And other than one or two acknowledgements from the manufacturer, the door idea was never brought up again. IDK, i just hate coming in here and trying to bring up issues to jsut get insta-flamed because the majority here are in the "it's a beta so its not a problem" mentality. PS. you say in a weeks time it will have doors, I'm sorry for being so cynical. I've personally been here since the very beginning (first wave of beta keys) and have seen very little (key points and issues) improve with patches since the initial drop of the game so excuse me if I'm not all unicorns and butterflies about the game right now. I'm not going to sit and negatively flame all day like some users here, but I'm also not going to get my hopes up until i actually see it happen in game. My heart has been broken one to many a time by developers promising the moon then crapping on my chest, and from what I've seen so far I'm not going to get too excited. But you never know. All i got to say is I'm glad i didn't spend $20 to get access to dust, or i might be feeling more along the lines of the OP.
Matt Madden Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 0	Posted - 2012.07.10 05:40:00 - [34] - Quote I just want to throw this out there that I think the problem with the loading problem lies in the version of the ps3 you own my 120gb version doesn't work but my friends 160 does. I'm gonna try my older 80gb and see if that works. Like I said this beta has not worked for me since the beginning but if you noticed when you bought the "add-on" it said nothing about having access to the beta so count this as a bonus but everyone knows the only reason we all bought the merc pack was because we didn't get a beta key and googled to find out we could play the beta cause why would you buy an add-on for a game that's not out yet? As for all the attacks against this frustrated player grow up and put yourself in their shoes before I call your mom and post a YouTube video of her taking your ps3 away while you cry like a spoiled brat. For future reference How about you learn what beta testing is generally beta begins when the software is feature complete so it should be running with some features to be tweaked. I'd say from what I've seen this game is in pre-alpha /alpha testing. I think CCP just found cheap labour where have you heard of employees paying to work as a game tester and youse all know you are required to provide feedback and fill out the survey as part of your agreement for being allowed access to the "beta" right?

I was gonna buy $20 in AUR anyway, then the pack came out with more goodies. It was a good deal. I already had access.

Also, for those of you who are flaming and trolling me for no reason - even though you don't even have a reason to be IN the thread to being with, seeing as you have NOTHING to contribute - consider for a moment you guys are going to be some of the first console players to be introduced into a mainstream MMO. The way you behave online and in community forums such as this will probably play a significant role in the way MMO devs think about incorporating console players in the future. So far this community is doing a VERY poor job representing the PS3 community. There is little in the way of intelligent discussion on this forum so far, and apparently the kiddies these days can't even find something decent to smoke, otherwise they wouldn't spend their days spamming and flaming tech support forums.

I cannot log into the game even though I have done nothing wrong, have paid the $20 for the mercenary pack, followed all instructions, even reinstalled the game a couple times, I play tons of other online gams on my PS3 (AND i play EVE online on my PC), have an excellent internet connection, but the game just gets stuck at the loading screens, and eventually brings me back to either the character selection screen or previous menus. Very frustration, but I guess I'm the idiot for paying $20 for access to a broken beta. However I need to know how to get a refund ASAP. I would appreciate any help. Do you know what "being a beta tester" even means? Yes you are playing a broken game THAT'S WHY WE ARE TESTING IT. The point is to play the game, find whats broken AND REPORT IT. As for your $20, the only thing that doesnt carry over to live server is the beta access. The dropsuits, weapons, and Aur go with you. Do you think the merc pack is gonna go poof when the game drops? Op my only suggestion is you LEARN 2 READ before you buy stuff. GL on the refund. FYI (this is displayed soon as you access the server) Servers are down mon-thurs

Read small print, it only gives at least access to the beta events, any additional access is a bonus, Next event is either this weekend or next, but if you can get to the main menu where it tells you about downtime you're good to go when the servers go up next time for you. Also services where delivered, you paid 20 bucks for PNS points, those where delivered, if anything call the PSN store for a refund not AE. Finally look around for other people having similar problems as stated before, declare your model and manufacture date as well as firmware version to help profile wtf is going on with the older PS3s not loading properly. If you dont think thats a big of a difference you have to remember the later ps3s had hardware removed to reduce costs of manufacture and sometime may have gotten tanken out mroe than it should have.

He's some info I didn't see in your post. Did you just do this today? If yes, here's some options you should explore. First off. make sure the transaction actually went through on everything. (Which I'm sure it did.) Second. The Beta test servers are currently only up Thursday, through monday, and do have a daily downtime. < Which is what I expect would be your problem.... Hope this helps.

Reivax Goy Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2012.07.10 19:30:00 - [43] - Quote its funy, because when you atemp to log in off day of the beta, you have a message on the screen who tell you the beta is open thusday 11H to monday 11:30H so if you read this screen message on the game you can know for why the game is dont working for now. This is a young beta of a game who dont coming out probably before november-december, so dev need some time of the week to correct the bug, replace some skill or equipement for x reason, add stuff and map and all this in same time of work to fit the game whit eve online. so is notmal for this game to be off a lot of time. but in 2-3 month this is probably chancve to be more on. And for your possible questioning, yes i buy the 20$ to, but i dont blame CCP to take some of my time of game to work on the game, and beside if CCP dont do this, i have a chance to lost my life in a to much hour of playing this game. fast reminder for evry one this issue https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=18201&find=unread P.s. sry for the english is not my native language
