BIG NEWS FOR EVERYONE!!!

I've just signed up on Xbox One! For once EA does something that makes sense: an always-online game with no beta inevitably ends in disaster. Anyways, I'm so stoked to hear this! :D

I signed up around 1 hour ago, luckily I was on Twitter when BlackPanthaa retweeted a tweet with the beta link in it.
 
I'm waiting for PC, even if it sucks. #NoNextGenConsoleAndHasBadPCSpecs
 
I would try it on PS4, but I don't own one yet. My primary concern is the collision detection and the controls. I really hope it's not like Hot Pursuit 2010 and Most Wanted 2012 because if anything put me off from playing them, it was that.

I anxiously await to hear about it. :)
 
I didn't take the time to check out the policy yet, but I wonder if people who get in will be allowed to share what's in the beta?

I skimmed through the T&C's and have bolded key points of it.

12.2 Confidentiality Obligation

You shall keep the Confidential Information in confidence and shall not publish, disclose, distribute, transmit, post or otherwise make available, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information to any third party except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. You shall use best efforts to safeguard and to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information, unless otherwise expressly authorized in writing as provided in Section 12.3 below. Your obligation to keep the Beta Materials confidential will continue until EA publicly distributes, or has otherwise disclosed to the public through no fault of yours, each of the Game product(s) and the content that you are reviewing.

You may disclose the information that is specifically identified in Addendum A and B, if any, on online message boards, forums or other similar venues in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Addendum A, Addendum B, and this Agreement. Said restrictions are to be applied no matter whether the venue is open to the general public or with access that is regulated and/or restricted.

ADDENDUM A - What you can share

1. The fact that there is an official Beta Program for the Game.
2. The fact that you are a member of the official Beta Program for the Game.

ADDENDUM B - What you can't share

1. Any contact/private information for EA personnel that is provided to you.
2. Any contact information (address, password, etc.) to any private areas for use in connection with the Beta Program, including but not limited to, chat, email and message boards.
3. Any information/discussions/postings from the private boards or forum for the Beta Program.
4. Any comments/information that would allow people who are not currently part of the Beta Program to get access to the Beta Program or Game through either legitimate or illegitimate means.
5. Post or distribute any screen captures, pictures, videos, podcasts, screenshots or any other representations, known or unknown, of any content in the Game or other Beta Materials.
6. Any comments regarding the game based on your participation as a Beta participant.
7. Any details regarding the stability of the Game or the Game servers.
8. Any comments or discussions on new features or other new functionalities in the Game or other Beta Materials.
9. General comments about the Game’s overall development.
10. Any comments on any aspect of the Game or other Beta Materials not covered by Addendum A above.

I think Appendum A is what you CAN share and Appendum B is what you can't. So I believe you can't say what the beta is like until A: The Beta finishes B: EA/Ghost say so or C: The game releases

Pretty much 99% of the people that sign up for betas. It does not mean that you are playing the game early. You are a stress tester and you are looking for bugs, game breaking mechanics, exploits, etc.

Yeah I know it will be dusk to dawn. It's just that we haven't seen any pictures of light skies until now. Also, they haven't explained how it will work. Does the time just stop once you get to dawn, or does it magically jump forward to dusk?

Yeah that's what I want to know, it might just be a fixed time of day when you leave the garage rather than being dynamic otherwise it will just get stuck at dawn.
 
Signed up approx. 30 minutes after the Blackpanthaa video was released. Hoping to be able to get my hands on the beta and play the literal hell out of it.






And report a bug, here or there. :p
