dwarf Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) Trying to get a Fat Princess beta code but it's proving difficult. I've answered one on 1up.com so hopefully they have spare codes. Fingers crossed. Edited April 17, 2009 by dwarf
Choze Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I hope i get in too. I havent entered but SCEE seem to send me codes. The other big beta will be MAG. Now that will be quite testing. They will likely do a private before the public though.
dwarf Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 How do you get that? Do you sign up or was that the thing where they send you codes for using the PSN a certain amount or something?
Choze Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 How do you get that? Do you sign up or was that the thing where they send you codes for using the PSN a certain amount or something? I signed up. It was shortly after the launch of the PS3 they had a beta signup registration. Didnt get into anything till a year later though.
dwarf Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 So I couldn't sign up to it now? I've signed up to fileplanet just incase IGN release a few for Europe. I got my Resistance 2 beta code for it as well as a Home code.

I got my Resistance 2 beta code for it as well as a Home code. There always other ways of getting into open betas. I am sure SCEE will do seperate stuff. In other news: Next Killzone 2 patch details! Hi guys, here’s the patch notes being released now. Once this patch is live we will start on the next, even bigger patch. We’ve got some good stuff still coming for you guys.

Seb On April 22nd at 8AM GMT, Guerrilla Games will release the next game update to their hit First Person Shooter Killzone 2, exclusive for the Playstation3.

It also enables support for the first DLC pack – “Steel and Titanium” available on the Playstation®Store from the 30th of April 2009 and we have added three additional ranks to the top-end of the rankings known as ‘Hardcore ranks’. There are also some minor improvements on finding and joining friends and clan member, but we will continue to improve on the system with the next update. The patch is 57MB large and a full list of fixes and feature updates are below: AI - Bots now skipping disabled/destroyed MGs in warzone when requesting mounted guns.

dwarf Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 As long as you play a full game I think. I didn't bother getting the stuff last time and I doubt I can be bothered tomorrow. Going to see Aston Villa
flameboy Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I'm off to see Harrogate Town but will be back by then lol!
Choze Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) So if I go; GAME NAME: MB BOOMZONE TIME: 8:30 BST (GMT/UTC+1) PASSWORD: forumfun Will get Home stuff afterwards? Yep. There is also an evening game but its seperate. I dont think there are unlocks for that one. Bear in mind boomzone has no bullet weapons. Just explosive weapons. Edited April 17, 2009 by Choze
