  • If i get a beta key ill take a picture dressed in full Star Wars swag. Ill see if my girlfriend will too!

  • Just a heads up, there are a bunch of sites doing this. Some of them, doing it a lot easier than this. If you to STOWR website, you can see all the sites doing it.

  • is there gonna be a xbox/ps3 beta or not? im wondering because you guys put the specs for pc but didnt mention the consoles at all...
  • Get on this guys. The beta is amazing.

  • Trust me, you will not diminish your experience by playing it, I played the class I planned on doing last, and now I want to play that first when the launch date arrives! Though I'll still stick to my original decision, lol.

  • I don't have a Facebook or Twitter :( Still good luck to everyone, hope you enjoy the game, it looks really cool! :D

  • You should add the caveat that if someone signed up to do beta testing BEFORE 11 NOV 2011, they should NOT try to get a beta key through the site. Anyone who signed up before that day is automatically selected for the final stress test (which is what these keys are for).
