NewsMore Details on ET: Quake Wars Public BetaFollowing up on yesterday's Enemy Territory: Quake Wars public beta announcement, Splash Damage has released some new details on the distribution process and when the beta will actually launch. According to the latest developer blog, we can expect the beta to go live sometime in the "middle of this week". Half of the 60,000 keys will be handed out to Paying FilePlanet subscribers on the first three days. The other half will be made available to those of you with Free FilePlanet accounts on the two days after that. Why are they distributing the beta this way? Read on: Now why are we spreading these out over several days instead of throwing all 60,000 keys out at once? Simple: We want to make sure that as many people as possible get the chance to obtain a key and we feel that scheduling a predetermined number of keys to go out each day is the best way to do this. We're also going to be gradually ramping up the number of available keys with each passing day, so as time goes on, more keys are passed out per day. This allows us to steadily increase the load on our back-end infrastructure, making sure we can effectively test that. You can read the full developer blog right here.
