How will Sony pick the 15,000 people for the Home Beta Trial App.

[pimpinyourmom69]

Is Sony going to pick the first 15,000 people that sign-up? Is it going to be based on how much time your have spent on your ps3 or how many games you have played? Does anyone know how there going to do it? Or is it still unkown? =]

[DanteMayCry]

most likely first come first served. nameen? ^^

[PsychoMantis]

I dont care how they pick the people as long as im one of the ones picked. Seriously, I think you have to go on the home website (I forgot the link) and you sign up when beta testing is avaliable.

I'm sure there will be alot of different things when decideing who gets in. Like Internet(speed,wireless,wired) being a main one. In beta's you as the player are trying to find glitches,bugs,exploits whatever and report them so they can be fixed. So they will want a wide variety of different players.


I hope I get in =]

I would think most devs already have had a look at HOME and are working on things as we speak to put into it (trophies).

I hope it isnt first come frst served. I want more fair methods. lol. because it will more than likely launch while im at school meaning i dont get it

I highly doubt they would make it first come first serve but everything is still up in the air so who knows.

Depending on how the sign-up form is. If they ask you to fill out a survey, they would probably want people with X amount of hours online, type of connection, type of TV, types of games you play etc..

If I were conducting a limited beta test, I would want want the following:

1) High number of hours online: 8 - 10 hours per week.
2) A variety of gamers: From shooters to RPGs. The more diverse, the better the feedback will be.
3) High Speed internet - DSL or Cable from a number of locations around the world.
4) HDTV and Standard Definition TV users.

A successful beta (end product) relies heavily on the participants chosen. I hope they choose good ones.

First come first serve seems the fairest way to do it to me. I would guess probably aroud 5000 from the 3 main regions. (Asia, UN, NA)

[SnowHawk]

i hope its not first come first served i think it should be a random pick the computer chooses 5000 pn accounts from each main area EU,NA,ASIA

True, I try to do that at times. Fortunately, there are also honest people in the world. Also, your location plays a part.

Not to mention a dash of luck!

The privacy policy states that people 13 and younger should obtain parental permission before submitting personal info. It is under the "Home Beta Trial Agreement", so... take what you want from that.

You guys theres no way its going to be first come first serve or random. You will have to fill out a application and then they will decide who they want in.
