jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.17 12:48:00 - [1] - Quote Hi all, some of you may of heard whispers of a upcoming beta corp called "Betamax" a corp where even lamp posts fear to tread. Well we are not unzipping the lips. WE are betamax. Formed by people in the IRC, betamax has some of the best and notable people in the beta right now, here are just a few of the more notable people in the corp; Omnipotent Zitro Mr Zitro Noc Grideris/Gridboss, Rucdoc and Nova Knife from dust514.org Rhapsodyy myself and many others. we also have some strong contacts in New eden for keeping us funded and supplied. We have a seriously impressive line up for launch, and now we are opening the doors a little wider. If you are interested in joining a corp that has a serious chance to become a major power in new eden, visit http://betamax.enjin.com we await you on the battlefield, but what side is up to you!

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.17 13:07:00 - [2] - Quote we have a fairly impressive line up, some of the most skilled people in the beta all coming together to take over new eden. That, mixed with our pre-existing eve contacts and financial backers, we just may become a force to be reckoned with.

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.17 14:51:00 - [4] - Quote my tank is called the hug dispenser ^^ the rail guns are just a way to express my love :)
jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.17 15:10:00 - [5] - Quote yeah, like i said a lot of us come from eve backgrounds so we know how to be cautious with spies

Also, I'm probably not good enough for you yet. thats fair enough, its always nice to play with your friends :) on the subject of being good enough, we have some very skilled people in betamax willing to train our people to be better

Are you going to be called same just after the premiere? the name is a double joke, one because we met in the beta and we are"max" so to speak, the other is a dig at sony for the failed betamax cassette format :P as a whole we quite like it :p
jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.17 17:43:00 - [8] - Quote Benjamin Hellios wrote: How would corp command decide which contracts to take? I'm assuming if you join a corp you're not supposed to go around fighting any war you fancy as an independent merc? What are the pros and cons of joining a corp? if its anything like eve then id imagine you would have the option of taking indie contracts as well as fighting for a corp, though you'd need to be smart, if you start fighting for a side that is an enemy of the corp you are in you could find yourself in trouble. How i imagine it would work internally is that a corp accepts a contract then delegates the contract to a team in the corp. The pros of joining a corp is that you will be joining a team of people that could further your goals, being a totally indie player means that you'd most likely not be able to accept any big contracts

Are you going to be called same just after the premiere? I find the name very fitting for a corp in a beta game on a Sony console. That's the reason I even clicked this topic and got interested. thats exactly what we though :P

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.18 03:16:00 - [11] - Quote Naustradamus Oracle wrote: Question is, your starting your own corp, but what alliances do you have with which Eve Corporations? I'm not a great player, so I know I'll never be anything then your standard foot soldier, but I'm waiting for one of my Eve friend to tell me what his corp doing with Dust, if they are making their own dust corp, if it's possible for dust players to join a already created eve corp, or just alliance themselves with a dust corp. because of the high level of some of our players, some of them originally where going to go off and lead a corp from the various alliances they came from, but then it was suggested that these players just come together into one neutral corp that will take contracts from almost anyone so long as they do not adversely effect our connections, suppliers and financial backers. though for obvious reasons i can't tell you who they are but like Grid said, we will have full coffers and a big armoury and thats what matters

But i any case I'm in betamax but im not the best player. I mean nothing is as scary as Noc bringing out his tank. It's more to do that we are sensible people in general (being frequently in the IRC) and therefore more Pew pew happens with less QQ. This is getting out of hand, can no one appreciate some good irony/jokes about no girls on the internet? i can^^

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.19 21:06:00 - [17] - Quote Natu Nobilis wrote: What are the objectives of your corporation? To be the most feared and respected merc corp in new eden. Natu Nobilis wrote: What are the demands on the members? work together to fulfil our goal and future contracts at a high level of skill, if you feel like you could do better there are some very skilled players in the corp who wouldn't hesitate to help or offer training. We do however ask that all members, if not have a mic, at least have voice turned on to listen to communication Natu Nobilis wrote: Wow the decision processes work? Currently there is a board of directors with 6 people, no one board member has more say than any of the others. members can submit ideas and proposals which get talked about and voted on during the board meetings. We do have the chairman of the board but that role is simply for organising and directing the board meetings, the individual in this role was voted in by the board and will be the public CEO of the corp. while like i said, they still have more say in board meetings Natu Nobilis wrote: How does the hierarchy work? Currently we have Boardmembers > recruiters and assessors > betamax members but we are talking about other roles soon, we also have various people who are delegated to a certain role that has not yes been defined fully in the corp (such as intelligence, covert ops and various other things) Natu Nobilis wrote: What is the endgame for your corporation? Currently there are a lot in eve that seem to think that dust 514 mercs are just ants to watch fight and occasionally burn with a magnifying glass( OB ) We basically want to stick a big middle finger at these people while mercilessly attacking their planets. We, in partnership with a couple of other dust corps want to show eve pilots that we are not to be crossed. What makes (or wil make) your corp so great that i-¦ll be interested to join it? Our leadership has worked hard in the IRC as well as elsewhere to assemble some of the best players in the beta into one corp. We have people in our ranks who can easily win a random match by themselves and with good teamwork are truly deadly. We also have private investors and supply lines set up for launch to make sure that our corp armoury is stocked well come launch I hope this helps

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.20 04:04:00 - [19] - Quote earlier after downtime, the betamax people invaded the EU plateaus ambush whie training new recruits, it was a hell lot of fun as everyone was on coms and the level of skill was very high hence really enjoyable games even when you lost :P thanks to everyone who got involved ^^

jenza aranda BetaMax. 1005	Posted - 2012.07.31 21:28:00 - [34] - Quote there is a way to do it, though obviously its harder with busier servers especially with a lot of people so we generally just pile into a deserted ambush one.
