Starting tomorrow the Beta application invites are being sent out by G1 for the Closed Beta of All Points Bulletin: Reloaded. If you receive an email from G1 you will then have the chance to apply for beta; this includes form signing, dxdiag upload and a short survey about yourself.

The scheduled start date for Closed Beta is: February 28th

Originally Gamersfirst had planned for around 8-10k testers, but due to the sheer demand for access to the Beta, this may well change as over 150,000 people signed up.

There has been no clarification as to whether ex RTW players and beta testers would get priority, one can only hope so as we pretty much know the game inside out and most of the bugs will still be active when CB launches.

Closed Beta starts on US West Coast server and will be opened up to East Coast, and then a Europe server soon after. Play time is expected to be minimal at the start and will be roleld out 24/7 eventually.

The full game release is expected in May.

Good luck getting into beta, i hope to get in with my APB clan and grief enforcers some more.

It was mentioned in a blog that such places would be made inacessible, there are various places in both districts that give an unfair advantage to Criminals i admin (im a crim) so hopefully they are removed or changed to keep the fight fair.

Saying that i used to love climbing up the advertising board on the tall building in the Financial District and annoying Enforcers.
 
G1 will not make the same business mistakes that RTW did, RTW were in financial trouble because their model and project management was poor - they spent too much money on staffing, infrastructure and pointless things - they even admitted as much.

APB:Reloaded Beta launches between February 28th - March 4th (Mon-Fri) and is expected to take the same shape as the RTW Beta, by this i mean we will probably be grouped up into beta testing stages (like RTW did sharp shooters, heavy hitters etc) and will be given different beta schedules.

I'll admit im a huge APB fanboy, i absolutely loved the original and had some brilliant moments in the game, and i'm confident it will work this time around and grow to be something really special.

If any of you want to join a clan, my original APB clan have all signed up to beta and will be playing the live launch, we were on Obeya server previously and are all Crims.

1st wave is supposed to start at the end of this week with invites going out tomorrow, Europe is the 2nd wave expected next week.
 
US-WEST Beta started today, invites went out this morning and the patch server is being hammered by the yanks. EU Wave 2 starts next week or whenever US-WEST have had their fill.

I'll post some photos that have been released of ingame in the image thread.
 
I wish that was the case :)

I just hold a love for the game, played it in beta and through to the end of its short life with RTW and had some immense fun with friends.

Just wanting to spread the APB love around the forum :)
 
Indeed it does, but give it time as the US West Coast servers are -7h to the Uk so we wont see any activity until later this afternoon at the earliest.

Open beta build one will encorporate a lot of stability fixes for lag, drivers, crashing as well as a bit of balancing for weapons.
