This is probably the wrong spot for an introduction, but anyway. Hi all, glad to be apart of this and am looking forward to whatever comes. If anyone would like to add me on ps4 feel free. Schnabel_von_Rom.

@Jythri can I sell my soul to Gearbox to get into the CTT?

#87

No, but you can sign up on rsvp.battleborn.com

Iā€™m pretty sure thatā€™s still open and that if you sign up there, you have a good chance of getting in.

YOU WILL NOTā€¦

Capture gameplay footage
Livestream
Post images
Publicly discuss the technical test on the internet.

I have said too much already but I think Iā€™m safe,
I have not got it yet lol.

But in all seriousness,
How will they police something like that and what would happen?
I assume they only have a small number of people in the test?

#89

Easy. They have people who will monitor Twitch and YouTube looking for leaked gameplay footage. Any they find will be promptly taken down and the offender(s) kicked out of the beta program. I doubt GBX will go to extreme measures to police their beta, but one would have to be pretty stupid to break the NDA if they want to continue participating in the beta.

I understand that but tbh itā€™s not just those two.

We have plenty of other apps like instagram for one and how many gaming websites and forums do we have?
I doubt they would look into every single one and tbh they would never know who that person is or which format they are playing on unless they specify it.

I just find it strange how extreme they are about keeping it a closed secret like Fight Club.

But it is what it is.

#91

I know, but I didnā€™t think I had to specify every situation. :dukejk: I seriously doubt GBX is going to monitor every social media outlet, but they will monitor the big ones to keep information from being published that shouldnā€™t be. The reason theyā€™re being so picky is because until the game is released, everythingā€™s subject to change. The last thing they want is their customers complaining because a feature that was leaked from the beta was cut due to whatever reason; take the level cap for example: it started out ~20, but was cut to 10. Imagine if it was 20 in the beta, but GBX decided to trim it down to 10 for balance purposes? Can you imagine the outcry that might cause? Iā€™m with GBX: if youā€™re going to participate in the beta, you should be willing to abide by the terms of the NDA. If you donā€™t agree with them, then donā€™t sign it and donā€™t sign up for the beta.

#92

I agree with you, but unfortunately it is the nature of the beast that some percentage of people that get invites to the CTT will act selfishly regardless of whether or not they signed the NDA. Images and videos will be leaked just so the OP can earn a few likes/views/upvotes. Now maybe that person will be caught, and maybe they wont, but Gearbox will have the ability to say ā€œwe made all our customers sign a NDA; we did not leak the content.ā€

Sounds easy enough.

#94

I agree
Personally Iā€™ll just be happy to play the game and Iā€™m not bothered about posting anything for likes or winning the internet.
It will be interesting to see if people like pewdiepie, boogie2988 and so on do advertise the game.

@Gulfwulf
My intentions of the post was not intended to make out I was upset that I could not talk about the game or share details and so on,
It was to find out how they would police everyone and would certain people (who I mentioned above) get away with it.

Also,
I played the Rainbow Six Seige Technical Test and that did not have the same kind of strictness nor did the Beta.
This is why I was took back a little.

#95

I canā€™t see gearbox making any such exceptions for the beta.

#96

Cant wait hope they pick me :smile:
