Re: SEV How\'s it look?
Err, this must some new form of love with which I'm unfamiliar.
Do you mean you love to work for free? to bust your butt so others can profit? Is your name in the credits enough? I'm afraid this mindset eludes me.

Hmm, yes, that is a point.

Don't need a monetary reward. Being able to be a part of the development of the game from early early playability right up to the shining finished product is part of the reward for me. Also having the chance to recommend that things be changed, added, enhanced etc., and being able to know that something you suggested made it into the final version for many people all over the world to enjoy...that's a good feeling. Then again, a little cash wouldn't be amiss either

I have done professional beta testing and even though I am not in this beta, I can tell you there is a diffrence :
professional - paid work - even if you do not like the game
play it over and over again for hours and try and do each and every possible scenario as well as doing it on diffrent hardware. Get paid quite a bit in some cases and name in credits, have to write bugs found in great detail on how it occured, and blablabla, annoying!
hobby - free
You get to go through and play a game that you love, get to see it before anyone else, for free but possibly get a position in special thanks in the credits, and just report any problems you find in a general manner, and in some cases get a special offer or a free copy of the game when it is complete
(I dont think there will be free copys of SEV or no one will buy!, it seems everyone who wants to buy the game got in to the beta test apart from me!)
that just about sums it up....

Re: SEV How\'s it look?
I didn't get into the beta. Didn't try - Not enough time.

Re: SEV How\'s it look?
We all know the Beta Testers are only in it so they can learn all the sneaky tactics first so when PBW SEV comes around they can quickly crush all opposition and claim status of Galactic Overlords 
Of course then they turn on themselves, giving us mere non-beta testers/mortals a chance... |

Re: SEV How\'s it look?
I would have LOVED to be a Beta tester. Did it for Starsiege, had a blast. Had more fun in beta than in the final, because of some unfortunate design decisions...
But most of all, I just want to play SEv, even if its not done yet...
