It would be nice to get a little bonus, but (if nothing else) we have experience, which it as bonus in itself.

excatly what we said lol

And you will be able to regale the kids with stories of how you played way back before ladders were invented, much less all that fancy EW gear and web mines. Back in your day you had to kill tanks with your bare hands!

We will be slowly eliminated one by one

Thank you very much for that spoiler... Now we have to change our plan. Great! ...

Orbital Strike?

No, that is "Nuke form orbit"
/puts the monocle on

On release we should have as little advantage as possible, the one advantage we have and can't be removed from us is knowledge of the game, and this will be more then enough to give us an unfair advantage over the release generation of players.

Experience and familiarity will be way more valuable than a headstart on sp/isk.

My guess is 80% of us don't return

Good, many of you are annoying toss pots who the game would be better off without (yes kitty has claws)

don't think we should get any ISK or SP advantage but maybe unique suits like the skin weave or some militia weapons wilt 'alt' names so all the new players think we have some awesome assault rifle even though it is the same as theirs...

Vera Assault Rifle
Stryk SMG

Armageddon Day, as it was back in 2003 in the eve beta :D all skills @ V and everything in the market for 1 ISK..

I heard EVE betatester got a special sign on all of their ships.
Would be nice to have something like a badge on every dropsuit. Somehow like Nasa mission badges.

A special paperclip that MacGuyver gave him for his birthday :-)

I like special patch!

How about we all start with a handicap to give the new players a chance.
I'd be willing to say have no Starter Fittings in exchange for some more beta rewards!

So me and my friend were talking about what happens to the beta testers once the game releases. I know that if you got the merc pack that you get all of the items but you paid for that. What about the hours and hours we put into testing? Im NOT trying to sound like a kitten and I am very grateful to be playing the beta for this game. But once the game releases as a reward to the beta testers put many hours and like a thank you from CCP, could all the beta testers get 1mil isk and 1mil sp? just a curious question and throwing my thought out there, others thoughts are welcome.

again not trying to sound ungrateful in any type of way.

I just wonder who is "we beta players" based on the time of creation of an account perhaps.

There are players joining after Dust being released to PS+ subscribers (which think is full game, at least some of them do).
Rating in PS Store is now around 3.24 which is based on all the bugs and turned off features.

So basically beta testers are those who joined before date Dust was released to PSN+???
