Interesting what he said at the end about letting people in slowly over days. Maybe it'll last longer than the weekend.

Guessing progress will be wiped again ? It’s fine by me, last beta I went full sniper mode. I’d like to try base building and vehicles this time anyway.

u/toomanybongos 4h ago
Yeah it's getting wiped. I saw a post where someone was begging them to keep progress and they said no lol. I respect it

u/Skpstr155 4h ago
I think a big reason for that is the artificially boosted progression they had. After release, nobody's getting a tank in 3 days lol.

u/toomanybongos 3h ago
Oh yeah definitely! Also, probably not a good look ti give preorders an edge on the economy right out the gate lol

Most certainly yes, any progress from a beta carrying over to release is a rare situation for any game.
I did a mix of recon/driving pallets/base building. Very enjoyable play style, lucrative too.

Am I stupid or is this set to end 8am Saturday morning?

Edit. Nevermind you said end.

A bit of a shame I'd only have Thursday/Friday night to play this beta. An odd choice, too - i guess I'm sitting this one out.

Huh???? It says the 5th of September, where are you getting the full week up until EA from?
The game releases on the 10th.

Gotta love when developers communicate things openly with their users.
Just enough time to move some PTO around to be here for both launch and this new server slam. Lets go.

Oh shit, i think i'm in love with this guy.
May this company grow and show others how shit gets done.

Well, that is well communicated and I can accept, nice one. Pre ordered first time in my life.

Same, just did it. Also joins the club with Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3 as the only games I have paid more than $50 (CDN, including tax) for.
I'm really excited for this. I'm not great at FPS games, but the short TTK means I will likely at least get enough kills to be having fun, and kills arent the only way to progress.
I love how they've basically done everything to encourage impromptu teamwork. I normally do that when I solo an FPS, but being able to actually talk to a team is great.

Even if somehow by some tiny tiny possibility that Wardogs completely flops, imma love these GameDev Bros forever. Complete and utter Chads they are.

Excited for beta 2. I hope they continue stick to their core beliefs tho. Community is getting a little too vocal about wants and changes and i think we should trust, and stick out what bulkhead has planned at let them continue to hone this game into what it can be.
Big s/o to bulkhead for their already major success in WarDogs.

It was never about gaming though was it.
This is a stress test, they’re collecting data on performance

Someone just tell them to chill out. They're massively overcomplicating where it isn't needed.
The game is fun, people want to play it. If you have a beta ready, just announce and then do a beta normally.
Gamers only get all weird about it like this when the communication from publishers gets all weird first.
Chill bros, the game is good, let the hype build the normal way.

u/GolfJay 5h ago
How is it weird? It’s refreshing to see a developer be so… non-corporate.

u/dacherrybomb Pilot 5h ago
Dude wants him to say Q1, fiscal year, challenges, and mention "planned for a future release". Instead, we get "yeah that's an awful idea and we are not going to have that in our game. This other idea though will be released in patch 1.02".

u/Tarc_Axiiom WARPUP 5h ago
How is it non corporate?
All of this cloak and dagger stuff is extremely corporate.
Just say you're having a beta on the 3rd.
Theyre literally hosting an entire industry games show to announce a beta, you guys think this is non corporate?
Yeah we're just in different world I guess.

u/bamms1212 5h ago
I’d say they’re about as transparent about everything the game is, and isn’t, as possible.
Refreshing to see devs that are community driven while still being true to their vision for the game.

As long as the servers have consented.
