I have never farmed in my entire thirty-something months of play, never will. I've used AE to make actual missions, I make Defenders who aren't Kinetics or Empathy, I have an eye for color, and finally I compose legible sentences.
Loyalist, Resistance, Hero, Villain. All boring, Rogue is where the fun is.
40+ month veteran, and only one 50(+3)
My input/requests is just as good as your as I spend $15 Just like you do.
I do not wanna be in the Closed Beta, and here is why.
I get burnt out on the new stuff before it gets to live >.<

I should be in closed beta, 'because I'm unemployed and have nothing better to do.
btw, this thread wasn't intended to be completely serious...
Now, make me laugh!

That's 90 months - way more than these 63 month dweebs. :P |
I shouldn't be in closed beta. I just gloss over the new stuff and then forget about the beta. Other people will help the game better.
I have been playing since COH was in beta, I preordered COH, and COV, and have all the content packs except the wedding one, have dealt with most of the bugs that seem to only appear when an issue goes from beta to live ((like the animation and button trigger **** ups with issue 15 or the super lag after issues 4 and 6))
hows that for ya?
that said I don't care if they pick me for beta I just wanted to present my case :P
Because I'm not posting in a thread like this...wait...craaaaaap! >_<

Ok, I know I was all serious in my last post, but things have just changed.
Sometime this morning, between when my wife's alarm went off and mine went off an hour later, I had a dream. But it was more than a dream...it was a glimpse into the future. I felt just like Nicolas Cage in Next. (Except with better hair of course.)
Here is what happened:
Sometime in the near future, I will stumble across a bug so huge, it will threaten the entire existence of the game. As I frantically try to send a bug report to Castle, my keyboard breaks. I get this far into my message:
Quote:
Every time I hit the 'e' key, it types a jumble of letters, none of them being an 'e'. I cannot send the message like this:| Hi Castl |
Quote:
| Hi Castl&p4ij/ |
So please Devs, I beg you...invite me to Closed Beta before it's too late! I know I can make things right in the future, just give me the chance and together we can avoid this catastrophe!
P.S. I've had some time to think about it, and I think I know how to get my message out in time. When the time comes, and I have discovered the Mega-Bug, I will email Pohsyb in raw binary. It is the only way.
They know I'm good for it.
Did that make you lol?
I still don't want in the CB.

Try it in Hexadecimal though, it's sexier.
As for why, a friend of mine is in Closed and telling me everything...so it's like I'm there anyway.
Questions about the game, either side? /t @Neuronia or @Neuronium, with your queries!
168760: A Death in the Gish. 3 missions, 1-14. Easy to solo.

Why thank you! I am very honored. I thought about using Hex as well, but it is too risky. I'm bound to have to use the 'e' key eventually.
OT, but....

I should be in closed beta because I have excellent analytical skills, familiarity with programming and particularly with some of what's involved in development of both online databases and games, a strong attention to detail, understanding that closed beta should not be expected to be in a releasable state, and the creativity to suggest original and efficient solutions specifically intended to not require heavy dev resources.
A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!

What if we can't justify getting into closed beta?
My computer is old and slow. Every time I try to open a /bug report it shuts with a :" no message was sent" message 
Let's just face it, some of us don't really qualify
There is no such thing as an "innocent bystander"
After i13 closed, I have no desire to be in beta again.
Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.
lolz PvP anymore, Market PvP for fun and profit
I should be in there because I'm Irish.
All this whining. Everybody's got this "gimme more" mentality, when they've already got plenty of content to enjoy. Then you've got the others who proudly state that they don't even want a beta invite, with some even restating it, as if it fulfills some inherent desire to go against the grain and stand out.
Kinda makes me wish they didn't even announce closed beta, so it would be a surprise for most people when the issue hits open beta. Not to mention it would keep 90% of the game's population from periodically trying to log in as if they were magically granted access, as well as cluttering up the boards with useless garbage.
TL;DR - Suck it up.
