I don't know, but a lot of games give beta testers something unique like an extra title or item.

It's not a huge deal it's just it'd be cool to have something to show we were in the beta process once the full game is released.

    Most games give rewards if they are P2P. Therefore, encouraging you to subscribe and play to use said such "item". I do agree though, a gift would be nice. But, they would have to make conditions for the gift. Otherwise, everyone can just log in once during CB and get the gift.


    How about we start an idea/suggestion thread here instead. Then they will have feedback from the player base, and they can run a poll for the community to choose a possible item reward.


    Personal Suggestions:

    1. - Special Deco/Fashion garmets.
    2. - Non-Combat Fashion Pet ( i.e. Little guy holding CB banner)

    Like...no wipe of our characters? :p

    But failing that, it would be nice to have access to certain item shop items - like hieros and fashion. I can't see too many people "testing" the item shop when they know there will be a wipe, and that would be unfortunate since fashion and a lot of the pay-items (aviation, mounts) add so much flavor to the game.

    If nothing else, giving people access to a limited # of free cash shop items would make them dependent upon them when the real game comes out, and make people be more willing to stay and pay for them :p

    In the most games i did closed or open beta gaming in we got an item or a special discount or even a gold/zen etc etc amount.

    In this case when game goes live i would love to get my name protected or a title would be very nice.

    We should get rewarded for testing an awsome game, and I wonder how great the reward is for testing the game anyways

    guesses of what it might be

    1.lots of Zen
    -or at least a good amount
    2. title above names of all players of your account
    3.mount that you can't buy
    4 pet belt to increse speed of mount
    5.differant color of your name and guild, like the color green+somthing else.
    6.pet that noone else in open can get
    7.lots of ingame gold
    8.fashion that noone in open could get in mall
    9.stuff sent to you in your mail(ect.stuff to make awsome equippment)
    10.Free black and white dyes!;)
    I hope that one of these happen:cool:

    3.mount that you can't buypossibly
    4 pet belt to increse speed of mountmaybe

    1.Hydra
    2.Monkey
    3.Floating Sword
    4.Random Animal From The Chinese Zodiac
    5.Mini Wings

    You guys are getting greedy...

    First off. There is a chance that we will be getting some sort of reward for playing CB, as many mmorpgs do.

    Second off. They didn't beg you to go to CB. Everyone is psyched to go themselves. You know what your reward is? You got to play the game a month before anyone else. I'd take that.

    Lets not scare the GMs away now guys :rolleyes:.

    On another note. I would like a fire truck, a PSP, a rocket launcher, 3 games for my PSP.........

    Only thing beta testers should get is our names preserved for OB/Live.

    They're not forcing you to play the closed beta, don't do it if you want something in return. Some of us are actually doing it to help them test the server, and not for our own benefit.
