I've been messing around with this game a bit. It's a nice cross between Unreal Tournament and TF2. It focuses on being able to completely customize your arsenal with everything from machine guns to lightning cannons. It's still in closed beta but runs well.

I don't think it's difficult to get a beta key on the webiste.

Search Skills FTW! I almost posted a duplicate thread before I found this one :thumbup:

While supplies last, Alienware Arena is giving away keys to the Closed Beta: http://www.alienwarearena.com/giveaway/ ... -giveaway/

They require you to have an account on their site. :roll:

I learned about it via @Jackfrags. The game looks interesting. I'm hoping I'll find some time this weekend.

I played the closed beta couple months back. It's really fast and fun and designing your own weapon is awesome.
I stopped playing it because there were almost no players online.

If you need to create an account, please use my Bro code: http://www.loadout.com/account/create/?bro=5571

That way we automatically become in-game Bros and when we play together we'll get an XP boost.

Did it, created an account. When finished it popped up a page showing me my bro code.
At this point I don't know if I applied for beta, or if I'm in beta. Hints? Or should I troll the forums?

Hate asking a question like this as an old fart, I no longer enjoy spending hours researching how to get into the current betas. Actually I don't mind it, its just that I re-allocated the time into other fun.

Keep an eye on Loadout in Steam. For 10 bucks you can get early access, or you can wait until launch date.

But we're now Bros! :-D and you can share your Bro code for those new folks creating their account.

:oops: I was able to get into the Closed Beta that is now...closed :(

But here is mine just in case: http://www.loadout.com/account/create/?bro=5142

So guys, game is out! Have you played it ?! I tried to but I waited 10 minutes in the matchmaking and couldnt find anything.
Hey guys. Sorry I've been away talking with our tech team. We're still working on stress points with the matchmaking system, making improvements, and we're going to keep doing it until things are working smoothly.

As things stand, we have a very large matchmaking queue with very large wait times. We just weren't prepared for this many users, with the massive rush we received, and we still haven't recovered.

For those of you missing out on boost time, we will be restarting those boosts, once the dust has settled.

Thanks,
Rob
Seems its a lunch prob. Well, we will have to wait

Unfortunately I already deleted it, but I got an email about the Loadout Launch bringing their servers to their knees. :-)

...victims of their own success, methinks.

Not sure when the servers will be back up, though.
