Not sure if anyone else got in, but I was lucky enough to be selected for beta testing this last weekend. The test only ran for 4 days.
All I can say.....is the game is awesome!
Now I'm going to be going through withdrawals of not being able to play again for 2 months...haha.

Congratulations are in order then
From what I understood there may be 1 or 2 more such beta testing weekends and again from what I understood it may be possible to be re-selected in those as well.
And if not there are always trailers, leaked gameplay footage, news articles and the ever long and torturous waiting to keep us company till Xmas

Yeah, there was definitely some bugs. But overall, it played very well.
Hopefully I'll be selected again, never know. Tried to report as many bugs as possible...so hopefully that helps in the selection...haha.

I think I may hate you. I haven't been picked, so I'm a sad panda (on the other hand, I'm so busy doing homework most of the time that I'm not sure how much I would have gotten to play.
I assume an NDA prevents you from telling us all about it?

Yeah, we had an NDA. Best game I've played in a long time though.
Having the beta test for only a weekend was kinda mean. They give us a little candy and take it away before we're done...haha.
The storyline was awesome for the Sith Inquisitor....very engaging. Got up to level 22 in the amount of time I had to play. Heard all the other classes were pretty sweet too. Now I'm curious to play all the classes...haha.
Oh, PvP and Warzones........awesome.

They took away your candy before you got finished with it, so now you bring over the wrapper so we can smell the candy but not taste it. I see how it is.

Based on what I'm seeing via Facebook (where at least two other people I know got in, one of which is in the VE and isn't Jeg), it looks like they're letting in quite a few people for this weekend. Sounds like a stress test!

... I got chosen to test the game this weekend too... this never happens to a pony like me...
And I will enjoy it as much as I possibly can in 48 hours (including the fact I work both days too during prime game-play time). Looks like I'm not sleeping much tonight or tomorrow night. :3

So, that was fun. I played a Jedi Guardian to 15, an Imp Agent to 10, and a Sith Inquisitor to 10.
Everyone that signed up to test before 11/11 will be invited to the next beta weekend. We should, at that time attempt to coordinate which server we play on to group up for stuff.

If you're in this beta weekend, I'll probably be on Canderous Ordo server as Japheth or something else. Hit me up.
Edit/Update: I am also an Operative named Ni'kita now. Both are level 14.

And the servers go down for a two hour maintenance, thus encouraging good children to go to bed at a reasonable time (2am local).
Kad, when you read this, I need to be re-accepted into the VE guild on the TOR website.
Also, if you're looking to hit me up at some point this weekend, see above for info on the second character I've been playing.

Rapping up my Beta test. Played my Sith Marauder Class to level 19 and also played an Imperial Agent to level 12. Hard to choose my primary class. Very fun. Plus, I got re-invited for another Beta Test for good feedback.

I think it actually goes through tomorrow. Not 100% on that, though.
So far I've stuck with my agent more than my Inquisitor. She's a level 25 Operative that I've been leveling in tandem with an IRL friend playing a Sith Sorcerer.
Word to the wary: Have about 48K credits on hand when you hit level 25 to train speeder training and buy a speeder. It ain't cheap (I still don't have mine).

It is going through all day today as well. Sooooo pleased. I had my Sith Marauder at 18, but then they did a server refresh and I had to start from scratch

My rig isn't up to running it, but my best mate got into the Beta Testing, and I got to backseat drive I must say, all the hype is true - it's a very fun game. Even the talking to quest-givers has been given a new twist to keep it from getting boring. I'm tempted to upgrade my machine now.

I'm in, Tarentatek server, but my computer's doing a terrible job of running the game. I spend an hour doing what should take ten minutes. Thought I'd try out the Smuggler just for the Beta...level 4. Yippee.
I think I may be out of luck in the graphics card department, but am not sure. I'll try and get it figured out, but if I can't it looks like that Collector's Edition may sit on my shelf until I can get my hands on a custom-built desktop. That in itself won't be hard, since I know the right people, but I've got to raise the funds first.

So, Officially done with the Beta for me. Played Sith Marauder to Level 18, an Imperial Agent to 17 and also a Jedi Consular to level 11. Each class I played I just kept wanting to play more. I can't wait to get this game in the next few weeks Who is ready to wreak some havoc on the galaxy, hmm?

It seems that the servers went down about 10 minutes earlier than they were supposed to. A pity.
I got my Operative to level 29 and I think I was very nearly done with Act 1. Like... within 5 minutes of being done. Frustrating.
Anyway, this game has been a blast so far, and it isn't even out of beta. I'll probably try to grab someone to level with for an Operative, I did 10-25 with a Sith Sorcerer and it was more fun than 25-29 solo. The Operative shines with more than one tank (from companions) in the party.
Anyhow, stay tuned to Comnet, we'll probably be organizing ourselves for the release before too long.

I managed to tweak my video setting and get it working. Got to level 9 or so...the beta ended and servers went down as I was walking toward the shuttle to finally leave Ord Mantell. There's no justice in this world, I tell you. None.

Well that was fun. Played a bounty hunter (powertech) up to level 27. That's a fun class to play and will probably have an alt that will be a BH now...haha.
Make sure you all get signed up for the guild on the SWTOR site. That's how we'll all get into the same server once the game is deployed.
