Hi,
Wasnt sure if this was common knowledge, but Planetside 2 are giving away lots of Beta keys at the moment, via twitter. They have two ways of doing it -
There are two or three PS2 devs who work in rotation using the PS2 twitter account. Each of them has their own style but they all:
Firstly, they each give away (randomly throughout the day) lots of beta keys with a * (star) in the key so you cant copy and paste it. Its then a mad rush to see who can input the key first on their website. If you do it, you got beta access.
Secondly, they reward creativity and friendly banter. Get chatting to the devs basicially - if your funny or original, chances are they will send you a key as a reward (and you dont need to even be "that" funny or creative!).
I (for example) saw someone get a key for simply offering to send them a cookie, so I replied and said "sod that, I will send you a chocolate olympic medal all the way from london" to which I was sent a reply "We got a deal" and a beta key arrived in my twitter DM. Also - chatting about your fav Planetside 1 moments are also a way to get one.
Sometimes they will also throw out a question about PS2 or its trailer, and the first X people to tweet back correctly all get a key.
The main twitter feed they use is: @planetside2 and the devs are [BKB] (Beta Key Bill) and Valkrie (and another who's name I forget).
Then you also have @PS_TRay - who is theTRay, the Senior Art Director on the game, who is also giving keys out when hes online in the same way as above.
I'm sure tons of you know about it already, but its been going on for days now and I'm a sure alot of folk who dont use twitter might have missed it.
