| Issue 12 Closed Beta starting next week! |

As per Lighthouse:
| QUOTE | Starting next week we will be entering the closed beta testing for Issue 12: Midnight Hour. We want to give you this advance notice, because the Training Room Test Servers will become unavailable for the duration of the closed beta. We anticipate that the closed beta phase will last for several weeks. We know that many are excited to participate in the beta testing of Issue 12; however the initial pool of closed testers is considerably smaller than previous closed betas. We are starting the beta with NCNC Friends & Family and NCsoft Employees and we will be adding additional testers as the beta test progresses and as the needs of development dictate.
The purpose of the closed beta is to provide focused playtesting and datamining along with feedback to assist the Development Team in polishing Issue 12’s feature set. While we’ve had a very productive internal alpha test cycle, at this point in development we feel that a small, controlled player group is more manageable and generally productive to the alternative of opening up the beta to anyone. Rest assured that we will open up the beta to everyone who is interested later in the development cycle.
One point of note regarding the Training Room Test Server, as we mentioned in the article on Issue 12’s Improved Character Creator, anyone who is interested will still be able to access the beta’s character select and creation screens. So, you’ll be able to check out those new improvements without actually being in the beta. If you haven’t configured your game client to connect to the Training Room previously and you want to set that up now, visit this forum thread for instructions: How To Get On the Test Server.
To discuss this thread, join us on the Training Room forums here.
Edit: Actual number display of powers at the character select screen will be disabled for closed beta as new powers are still being refined. Look for them to return in open beta. |
Wewt! Hope I get picked! =D

They never said what the process was. I assume it has something to do with randomness, as well as how often you play on the test server, forum activity, bug reported, etc etc etc.
