Star Wars: The Old Republic beta test signups

[Vire]

You want to go here.
You want to rethink your gaming choice.

As a personal side note, if you happen to create a dropdown for a user's birthdate, including the current year seems a bit unnecessary. Infants have a low subscriber rate for MMO's.

i had issues with firefox. Swithcing to IE seemed to clear up the issues.

Still having issues with IE, form keeps resetting back to first page.

Make sure your account name is accepted before proceeding off the first page. It let me proceed with an invalid account name the first time.

Once I got a unique one, I got all the way through (second attempt).

Thanks for the tip Vire! Hope you are doing well =)

Clear your cache/cookies for the page, and try again.


While they were having so many issues the first day or two, it seems to've ironed out and isn't as slammed. However, that didn't stop me from seeing "Your account has been" emails for about 10 minutes;; I think I ended up with almost 10 of them due to the hiccuping of the server on the first day LOL

Now I seem to get a crash when I get to scan my system.

Most interestingly buggy tester signup ever! =)

Only trouble I had was the general strain problems they had when signups first opened.

Eventually a friend convinced me to give beta sign ups another shot.

Once I found the hundred page thread on the various bugs people were having (located on the website), I just sat down and slowly worked through the five to six issues I was having.

I did get it working, just surprised at both the amount of people having errors with the sigh up and also the amount of errors themselves. Did find it a bit amusing to slowly work through issue after issue, re-reading posts, searching for any brower/add on updates, poring over browser settings to try to slip through the broken interface. Hopefully the game will be as epic as the sign ups for beta!
