I got in instantly I suppose being premium on BF3 and 4 probably helps EA's decision somewhat.

Maybe they're just giving other people a go!

 

[weyland yutani]

They probably looked at my account and saw I hadn't even logged into Origin for well over a year and said sod off

 

[agnes]

Where can you sign up for alpha?

 

[elmuzzy66.]

Why apply for the alpha? They going sucker you in and then come game release everything has changed. bf3 alpha anyone?

 

[Casdawer]

No invite for me

Proper gutted as I'm really looking forward to it!

 

[MissChief]

This looks awful, I'm not buying it on release etc etc.

Closed Alpha announced.

Waaaah! I didn't get an invite!

Because it's a free game to play in the mean time if you get in? lol

What a stupid question.

I wasn't actually planning to buy on release, however the alpha is free so I chanced it and if I like what I play, it might convince me to actually get it.

 

[Glanza]

Just applied for the alpha on the website, sorry not sorry message, ah well

 

[Nexus18]

Just got an email saying you are confirmed and the other usual stuff.

The alpha will only last till Monday 6th.

17 mins off screen gameplay here.

Cant say I'm particularly impressed so far with what I've scene. Game play does look very arcadey.

I see lots of people shooting without even looking down their sights...

 

[MissChief]

saw a video today through Facebook that said you can ADS or shoot from the hip any time you like?

 

[SonniLombardi]

Not sure if this has been posted but it does look good tbh, sounds are fantastic, damn it wish I could get alpha access!!

edit: deleted The 17 minutes of gameplay footage.

The flight auto/punter roll looks terrible. I'm surprised they carried that over. I don't know if it's also just the person flying it in the video but the TIE fighter looks to be moving oddly at times there. Disappointed with the inclusion of the auto roll though. Hopefully that's just for consoles but I doubt it.
