Crysis, le multi.
Quelques éclaircissements :
Missing public announcement
As many of you may have recognized, there was no public announcement from either EA or Crytek regarding the Crysis MP Beta. The reason for this was that this batch 1 of the Beta is an internal test only and is not the actual start. The official Beta for Fileplanet subscribers is almost ready and there will be a huge global announcement with lots of information included. Additionally this announcement is just the beginning of an upcoming community focus – so expect a lot more information in form of screenshots, videos, reports, events and much more to be ready for you!
Batch 1 - Friends & Family internal test
Quite a few of you wonder why you haven’t had any chance to sign-up for the first batch of the Beta. This was due to this first batch being available for a pre-selected group only. The members of this group are people who have been invited by EA and/or Crytek to join the Beta program of Crysis. There has been a very limited number of available keys for them. Additionally Fileplanet gave a few of their Founder’s Club Members the chance to sign-up for this event as well.
This is our final test to verify the stability before the initial Beta begins. It is an important test for EA and Crytek since we can see how everything works under real life conditions. This internal test is not directly related to the rest of the Beta. Therefore we did not plan to official announce it.
Payment required to access the Beta? No!
We have read a lot of posts about people who mentioned that you need to pay additional money to be able to join the Beta. Just let me get this straight – this is definitely not the case. When you have a subscriber account you will be able to sign-up for one of the upcoming batches.
The payment many of you have been discussing about was related to the Founder’s Club membership of Fileplanet which was needed to get one of the very few places in the first batch. Founder’s Club membership is not necessary to take part in the upcoming batches.

"Payment required to access the Beta? No!"
Quelle mauvaise foi. Si la bêta est réservée aux abonnés payants de Fileplanet, c’est pour vendre des abonnements à Fileplanet. Faut arrêter de jouer sur les mots et de prendre les joueurs pour des idiots.
D’autre part, c’est un peu culoté de faire signer un NDA aux participants tout en permettant aux "pro" de rédiger des previews. Ca veut dire quoi ? Qu’ils ont peur de ce que peuvent dire les joueurs ? Que la presse pro est à leur botte ?
Remarques, y a pas encore de preview de la bêta multi chez les "pro", mais je pense que ça ne devrait pas tarder.

Ca fait un peu penser à du :
"Postez pas les screens cracra de la bêta, laissez nous poster de superbes screens photoshopés !"
