Giveaway: Planetside 2 Beta Key



Ask for it nicely and give a short explanation with what about this game intrigues you. That will enter you into the giveaway

then in 24hrs (roughly 5:30 est, 9/13) I will programmatically and as randomly as possible, choose a winner. Make sure you are nice and give a reason why, otherwise you will not be entered.

Why I want to participate in the Planetside 2 beta

Hello,

The first thing that intrigued me about Planetside 2 was the fact that it was a large scale, persistent, open world shooter. For the longest time I always dreamed of playing an online game with this scale. Unfortunately I never found out about Planetside till the servers were closed. When I saw the first trailer for Planetside 2 I freaked out. This is why I want to get a beta key. Can I please have a beta key.

Thank you and hope who ever gets the key enjoys the beta.

I signed up for the beta a while back when a guy in one of my classes had a magazine and I read an article about it. Never got to play the original Planetside, but the concept seems awesome and I'd really like to get a chance to try it.

Have high hopes for this game. After witnessing the slippery slope of console gayness which PC gaming and indeed gaming in general is heading down, the PC platform is really in need of something awesome on the FPS front which only the PC as a platform can handle.

Planetside 2

Hi could you give me the planetside 2 key?
I've played planetside 1 the original and it was what got me into the first person shooter games. Even though other games, their matches were 10-30 minutes compared to Planetside which could lasts DAYS, i still developed a love for FPS games. I built my skills on teamwork and strategy in planetside 1 and mainly moved to the battlefield series.
When i saw the annoucement of PS2 i freaked and couldn't wait to play but i never got a beta invite.
Hopefully i get chosen ^^
Teamwork is the key to a win in PS2.

WELL. BECAUSE I LIKE TO TYPE IN CAPS

but main reason for it, is it looks similar to Halo but on a much much much wider scale. Ive been telling all my friends who loved Halo on the console about the game and trying to get them into getting PS2 on the PC when it gets released.

I never really played Halo much, nor was i huge fan compared to the others. I do have the game for PC though but since I bought it when it was already starting to lose players, I just couldnt get into it and the lack of widescreen support just made me not really interested. though the SP campaign did play good on my old laptop.

I should really see if that game runs on my HP DM1

I would love a beta-key!!

I have always wanted to play a game like this and the only ones I have ever found have been badly done or have a very small community. I have spent loads of time looking for giveaways for beta keys but I was either from the wrong country or just missed out. It would be extremely appreciated if I got a key because then I could join my friends who already have one .

Why I am interested in PlanetSide 2

Hi,

I am studying in game development related major, and PlanetSide 2 seems to be first big innovation for a long time in FPS games. I guess everybody's starting to get bored in Modern Warfare's annual updates

I find the whole concept of PlanetSide interesting and would love to as a gamer and researcher to follow its steps from the beginning to full scale launch as close as I can, and therefore this chance of participating in the beta offers an intriguing possibility.
And also couple of my friends already have a beta key, and their praise for the game is truly annoying to listen

Planet side 2 beta key

HI! I deserve this key because I played every tribes game and every battle field game AND it was my birthday on september 7th!

I got alot of time on my hands and have played ALOT of betas contributing LOTS of time to the game. I REALLY care about video games being finished PROPERLY and not rushed!

I love games like this (jetpacks, Vehicules, Shooting) and it would be perfect for me to get this key since I got tons of free time to test it and send them things I find on the forums!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HOOK IT UP WITH A KEY!!! THANK YOU

Looks like the contest is over, so I'm closing the thread so it doesn't become a crap magnet.
@Digi : Let me know if you need it re-opened .. and thanks for the giveaway.
