Make sure you use an email you don't already have registered with SW:TOR

From the email sent 11/11:

Your account has been selected to participate in an upcoming Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Beta Weekend Test. If you have previously tested or are currently participating in an ongoing test, you will be invited again. Additional details for this upcoming test will be announced soon.

As part of this test, we will be partnering with games industry sites to distribute additional beta codes as necessary. This will help ensure we meet our population goals, so we can effectively stress test our servers in preparation for launch. Please do not acquire and redeem one of these codes as it could jeopardize your ability to participate in this test.

As a reminder, should you choose to participate, everything associated with this test (game information, process, forums communication, etc.) is confidential and may not be discussed outside of the Game Testing forum. Additionally, your participation in the Game Testing Program is subject to the Game Testing Agreement.

From what I read you need to log into your swtor account and make sure you have the game testing section filled out. I am not sure how you would use a different email. This infamous mass beta test email that was sent out 11/11/11 never reached my account for testing. I had the beta test section filled out the day the game went on pre sale.

OMFG I got one! Thanks dude!! You're my new favorite broham!

File Planet is doing the same thing. Looks like they want to load up the servers! a New build is being deployed this Thursday, and they are not wiping existing characters.

the keys are for the last weekend beta. if you have signed up on swtor.com and opted into beta testing prior to november 11th bioware is doing a 100% invite so you wont need the keys. if you never opted in or dont have an account good luck!

I signed up months ago and never received an invite to a beta. The whole idea that anyone who signed up before 11/11/11 has been accepted to beta is not true. I am proof of it. I have checked my spam box and any email associated with swtor. No email was sent and I can make you a screen capture showing I selected to be available for beta and it's checked complete. I am half tempted to email Bioware bitching to them I never received this infamous invite they claim anyone who signed up before the date should have received.

You seem to have woe is me syndrome. Just contact them and ask. They announced it a while ago and if you still haven't done anything or researched it and are just bitching on the forums I hold no sympathy for you.

Customer service is there for a reason, and it takes usually less than 24 hours to get a response.

According to SWTOR.
Your account has been selected to participate in an upcoming Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Beta Weekend Test. If you have previously tested or are currently participating in an ongoing test, you will be invited again. Additional details for this upcoming test will be announced soon.

As part of this test, we will be partnering with games industry sites to distribute additional beta codes as necessary.

The idea was to get your beta invite either via them directly, or to notify you, that you will be contacted by a distributer site. It doesnt mean that if you didnt get this email as many people did, you are out. I means you havent gotten it yet.

Yes everything needs to be completed and correct to get one from Bioware. Otherwise, just click on your browser, and either copy and paste this www.curse.com (http://www.curse.com) or click it... and go get one. I got two emails from Bioware, and I still went to curse and got 2 more.

I am not seeking sympathy or have woe is me syndrome. I just want to dispel the myth that everyone has beta access. I sent them a message today. I would hardly call posting beta keys available bitching. If you think dispelling the myth about access bitching that's your opinion. So any post that people claim everyone who applied prior to 11/11/11 has beta access I will happily call bullshit on because it's not true.

[Crum1515]

Did I say they all went out? Or did I say everyone is going to be invited?

Quote directly from Bioware

"
When we started our Beta Testing Weekends, we told you that each weekend would include more testers than the last. We’re excited to announce that later this month we will be conducting our largest Beta Testing Weekend yet, specifically designed to help us stress test our servers in preparation for the launch of Star Wars™: The Old Republic™.

How can you take part in this coming Beta Test Weekend? Well, for starters we are happy to announce that anyone who has signed up for our Game Testing Program prior to today, November 11th, will get invited! Invites will be sent in the coming weeks.

You can call bullshit all you want, even if it was a hic up and you didnt get yours they still invited everyone. I am proned to believe them than fall in line with your "bullshit, your wrong" mentallity. a simple 2 minute search could have alleviated this.

On a different note, i never disuputed your post about the key's being given away, was simply letting people know that they didnt need them if they fell under this umbrella.

[Vecter]

Kinda pointless to argue when you can go to many gaming sites and grab a key...like curse.com and their 175k keys.

[Crum1515]

you win this round vecter... but I shall be on your lawn tomorrow

[Tehmuffinman]

posting in epic thread

[Crum1515]

toasting an epic bread?

[pinotnoir]

I stand corrected if they are sending out notices later. Like vector said its pointless because I have submit the code for the curse beta.

[Crum1515]

fo show man, i apologize about the woe is me comment, was uncalled for, i should have just posted the dev statement up front. my bad

[Crum1515]

i blame the muffin man... he has 11 toes

[Crum1515]

and if you want to add it to your OP, wowhead is giving them away too if curse runs out

[MiRai]

toasting an epic bread?
Nope. Chuck Testa.

[Crum1515]

Nope. Chuck Testa.

i have no comeback for that

[Zub]

got one from curse, 5 minutes ago.

Interestingly i'm from Australia, and originaly gor rejected because it's US/EU only. But using a VM located in europe got me in alright.
latency is going to blow >.<
