CzarOfRome Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I know pre-alphas are often NDA-bound and raffle-drawn, while Betas tend to have more open playerbases. Just got deep back into KSP 1 and would love the opportunity to explore the early state of the game and give whatever feedback. What's the chance we get either of those, and how will you select entrances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Betas appear more frequently for games focused on multiplayer. And I don't mean like local servers, (which is the kind we're most likely going to get in ksp2 despite having no info on that so far), I'm talking about big servers with dozens of players, Battlefield kind of thing. You know, to test interactions between many players, server capabilities and so on. That you can't test in a studio. I highly doubt there will be a beta available, we're getting a full game with one point oh mark on it on release day and that's it. And let's face it, most people say they want to be beta testers but they don't say that they actually just want to play the game before others.

I was in the closed alpha for AoE4 and oh boy do I have to tell you that the feedback forums were **packed**, people put in hours and hours of honest work to make reports, reproduce issues, evaluate balance and theorize about impact to the playerbase upon release. I don't have any numbers of course, but yeah, beta testers often feel a deep responsibility and act accordingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catto Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Balsa had a beta test and all i did was click a button and I could play it. It had a limit for playtesters so ksp 2 will probably be closed instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HebaruSan Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) This is a very frequently asked question. Here are some of the discussions that browsing the old posts could have found, if you're interested in how they went: So far, none of these posts has elicited any response from the developers. Good luck being the first! Edited January 13, 2022 by HebaruSan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pthigrivi Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I guess we'll see what their process is but I'd personally love to help out in a beta test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
