[Kwansu Dudes]

Looks like US is the last of the ones to be selected. Fingers crossed/suns praised

 

[Eusis]

I suppose the way they could sort of grant access is by giving anyone who won the lottery a week PS+ pass, so that they could play for sure (barring unfortunate circumstances where they can download it but can't actually play it online for whatever reasons.)

 

[Orochinagis]

Downloaded the client but I didnt know you hav to be selected to play it, how do you guys know that or where can I sign up

 

[SymbiantXenos]

So yeah deleted the email with my reg number on.

Oops.

 

[Zhao_Yun]

Meh, seems like I wasn't selected

 

[Red Liquorice]

I got in (EU) but just realised I don't have PS+ - oops, lol!

 

[StoneHeart]

How do you get the email regarding the stress test?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I got in (EU) but just realised I don't have PS+ - oops, lol!

Eu players don't need ps plus to play the beta

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

How do you get the email regarding the stress test?

If you get in, they'll send you an email confirming so. They won't send one if you don't get in.

Go there and check the selection page assuming you still have you registration number.

I thought you didn't need active PS+ for alpha, beta or network stress tests?


Got EU email, aww yes. Praise the sun!

 

[StoneHeart]

If you get in, they'll send you an email confirming so. They won't send one if you don't get in.

Welp, I missed the Application period, September 18. Hopefully, they run another test.

 

[Red Liquorice]

Eu players don't need ps plus to play the beta

:O

That's nice of them!

 

[IrrelevantAlex]

So I downloaded the client before they took it down. I won the lottery.
Does that mean I have an extra code or will I for some reason still need the product code.

 

[Black Soma]

Got my mail.

 

[wowzors]

US emails went out? Guess I can delete the client as I got no email.

 

[Wheelatron]

US emails went out? Guess I can delete the client as I got no email.

Have not heard of a US mail going out yet

 

[Cavaliersfan767]

When are the US emails coming out?

 

[drotahorror]

Nvm.

Monday, October 12th, 2015 at 6:00 p.m. PDT (planned)

Still though, I guess they're rolling them out via regions.

 

[Moaradin]

I downloaded this a few days ago when it was on the store. Will it be useless sitting on my hard drive without signing up and being selected?

 

[Cavaliersfan767]

Ok yea its 11 pm tues here EST. Hopefully I get an email soon.

 

[piccio_ssl]

US emails went out? Guess I can delete the client as I got no email.

The mail gives you a code for download the client
So if you have it already, you should be in

[Wheelatron]

So the test is only for a couple of hours?.

3 tests of 3 hours each, yeah

 

[Robot Pants]

So the test is only for a couple of hours?.

Yep just like dark souls 2

 

[oRuin]

I'm in, got the email! Sweet!

 

[Augemitbutter]

i'm in. time to party.

 

[a harpy]

Wait, I feel like some people are saying different things.

If you have the client, but didn't get an e-mail, can you still play? I got the client while it was up for DL and I'm not sure if I should just delete it or not. I never actually signed up to be in.

Since it's not a sure thing, why not just wait until the beta opens to see if it works?

 

[a harpy]

That requires me to manage expectations and possibly even deal with light levels of disappointment.

My way was so much easier

But yeah, it's incredibly soon so... you right. You right.

 

[HorseFD]

The 5am test time for Australians is gonna be brutal.

 

[usp84]

YEEESS i am in!!!

 

[joekusa]

Receive mail, but impossible to find my registration mail Why life is so cruel...

 

[Srey Plaughtered]

No mail yet but I had already downloaded the client. Hope I get in. *Fingers Crossed*

 

[InternHertz]

YES!

Thank you for applying.

Unfortunately, you were not selected for the test.

(not like I didn't anticipated it....)

F luck, it's overrated >_<;

 

[Persona7]

You have to have the original email? I hope I didn't delete it

 

[AESplusF]

If I haven't gotten an email yet am I out of luck?

It lets you know if you weren't selected right?

 

[glassgannon]

So what if i have the client already and no code, (not yet at least)

 

[Backfoggen]

Never even got a confirmation mail, lol. I hope I can play with just the client and during European hours, I don't want to get up at 5 am.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

Got an EU code so i dont have to stay up till 3am gmt (probably will still)

 

[Hypron]

The 5am test time for Australians is gonna be brutal.

Lol, I thought 7am for NZers was bad but that's even worse.

 

[General Lee]

Got my EU code. 9 hours of DS3 bliss awaits!

 

[Melfice7]

Yay got selected, dark souls 2 stress test was awful, let's see how this goes

 

[Kenzodielocke]

[Rush_Khan]

I, uh, left the first confirmation email with the registration number in my Junk and now it's deleted.

 

[Ashler]

This registration is probably one of the worst organized activities I've seen in a long time. How, where and when was this registration announced?
