Red Alert 3 Beta Program

Kursah · Aug 2, 2008

Well I got a deal when I bought C&C 3 Kane's Wrath to be in the RA3 Beta...my E-mail finally showed up today! WOOT! Downloading now...unfortunately I won't be playing it today...I have too much to do this weekend. Anyone else involved?

:toast:

EDIT: To be a little more clear, a card for RA3 beta came with Kane's Wrath, I submitted a code to EA and registered it so I could sign up for RA3 beta...my e-mail showed up today, I am now downloading Red Alert 3 Beta...I've seen some videos and previews, it looks really cool, I'm very excited.

how'd he get ripped off, he got the demo free with another game?

Kursah · Aug 2, 2008

Naa it's my mistake, Red Alert 3 Beta...lol!

sneekypeet · Aug 2, 2008

Even with the mistake , I still cant see where anyone got ripped off.

If you hqappen across any friends type program ,I'd be interested in giving it a go!

Ive allways loved Red Alert, have fun, the empire of the rising sun looks like hardcore rapefeast.

MilkyWay · Aug 2, 2008

damn i want to play it

its like what command and conquer 3 should have been

ive allways been on the idea that it should only have been the original cnc universe and scoffed at the other cold war universe but this looks to be a good game eitherway

mrw1986 · Aug 2, 2008

Is it a single player demo? Put it up on an FTP

Apocolypse007 · Aug 2, 2008

ive been in the beta since first release, already a pretty solid game. Just finished playing actually. Japanese battleships are great!

Add me to your chap buddy list if you see me: Apocolypse007

edit: also, if anyone wants inside information on the beta (except extra keys) just ask !

candle_86 · Aug 2, 2008

i still havn't gotten mine, been waiting

You do know you would have signed an NDA on the beta, and giving away information about it (in fact, in most cases even mentioning you are part of the beta until after release) is a breach of contract.

Apocolypse007 · Aug 3, 2008

i find it hard to believe they would give out tens of thousands of keys publicly to whomever bought the kane's wrath expansion and would expect noone to talk about their experience.

besides, i can only answer questions about general gameplay, which is already publicly available on many websites.

Regardless, If I had signed an NDA (Like the one I signed for work) I would not tell anyone about it...I may let muffin_man play though if I had a cool game.

Who cares about C&C anymore? Starcraft2 WOOT!

GSG-9 · Aug 3, 2008

I wish someone would remake Red Alert on a modern engine...

OzzmanFloyd120 · Aug 3, 2008

I just got my email as well and I'm waiting in line for a download spot.

Maybe we can play when we both have it tomorrow, eh Kursah?

candle_86 · Aug 3, 2008

just got an email saying the beta has started, im now awaiting my beta key.

what really sucks is i got it on launch day from EA downloader and i still havn't gotten a key

OzzmanFloyd120 · Aug 3, 2008

My best friend who is also my C&C Nemesis didn't get his key either, he bought it at the Meijer he works at the day of launch and all of my other friends got a spot and he didn't.
I don't know what I'm going to do, he's my only friend who is equal to me in that game.

candle_86 · Aug 3, 2008

im kinda annoyed KW sucks, RA3 beta was the only good thing i got out of buying it and EA still hasn't given me my key

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?! :eek:

KW was amazing, I love the idea of the subfactions. Black Hand FTW! The only down side of the game is all the desyncs.

candle_86 · Aug 3, 2008

the downside was the campign, the only saving grace it had was Kane. It switched to much, didn't present its self as interesting in the least, filled in very few holes from TW2 to TW3 and overall felt like it was thrown together with ducktape

OzzmanFloyd120 · Aug 3, 2008

TBH I never touched the campaign of either game. I bought both TW and KW for the multiplayer. (Same reason I've bought every other RTS I own)

candle_86 · Aug 3, 2008

ah, im a CnC campign kinda guy like the stories its what drew me in to begin with. And CnC3 had a great one, KW had less than crap for one, its so bad calling it crap is being to nice

OzzmanFloyd120 · Aug 3, 2008

The only strategy game I even TRIED to finish the campaign in was CNC: TS, I got to the last mission of the GDI campaign and then some stupid file got corrupted in XP and I had to reformat. I never did try to beat it again.

candle_86 · Aug 3, 2008

lol, well if you ever want a challange do the Red Alert or CnC Tiberian Dawn campaigns they are royally hard.
