Battlefield Heroes

[Eschatos]

I just got into the beta.  I did agree to an NDA-like contract, so I'm only allowed to tell you guys two bits of information.

  1.  The fact that there is a Battlefield Heroes Beta Program.
  2. The fact that you are a member of the Battlefield Heroes Beta Program.

I think you can guess the answers to both of those.

You can tell us whether or not it sucks ass or not, or you could post more info in the private section of the forums...

There's a private section?

I thought everything was "private" as google can't find anything at brbuinstalling.com, so I imagine web spiders can't come through, and you can't read ANY section of the forums without registering.

Also true, none of this is indexed, but theres a server admin section that isn't visible to most users so it prevents random lurkers from grabbing said NDA stuff and reposting it

Eschatos told me things.  His trust is mine >

I never get into any of these damn betas. Fuck.

[fyre]

Does this still exist?

[Squishy3]

Wedge said it was terrible, but I'm guessing it's come further since he played it.

[shoopfox]

Damn, it's still in closed beta? O_o

[[fr31ns]Karrde]

This gone open beta yet?

[Wedge]

Well there has to be a reason it hasn't released at all in ages.  Probably because it was total shit.  Fuck I could probably go back and play it now, but I'm sure it still sucks.  They really seemed to be going hard for the "casual" hardcore market with it, which meant gutting it of any gameplay or functionality seen in a normal shooter, and replacing it with XP points and RPG skills.

The beta just reopened, so I tried it out.  It's actually gotten a lot better since the first time.  Quite fun now.

[Versus]

if you say so. I signed up.

[Maxon]

I signed up for it, but waiting to see if I'm gonna get in at all.

I got my beta key today. It crashes, unmercifully, after 5 mins every game. any ideas?
