Section 8: Prejudice Beta!

For people looking for something slightly different out of the trillions of FPS's, I suggest Section 8.

Beta signups here for Section 8: Prejudice (Section 8: #2): http://warisprejudice.com/news/sign-up-for-the-prejudice-beta-today/

What I really like about Section 8's multiplayer is that there's a lot of versatility in it. You can spec out your class, much like BF/CoD, but you get upgrades (minor buffs to really tailor your class, not just a weapons loadout). You still get drops (turrets, supply depots, etc.) but the cool part is that instead of spawning at a captured point, you can literally spawn anywhere on the field by dropping in. To control areas, people put up anti-air turrets to shoot you down as you drop in.

Section 8 was a really low key game - I picked it up from gogamer's 48hr madness. I really hope S8😛 turns out to have a much bigger community (which is to say regular S8 has basically no MP players), because it's the first FPS I've really enjoyed in a while.

i got accepted to the beta the other day but i couldn't register the beta key they sent me for some reason. I'll try again later and if it doesn't work i might try posting on the support forums.

Looks kind of cool. Signed up for the beta. Thanks FG!

I have bad luck in getting into these things though, so doubt it will happen.

I finished installing it last night but haven't played it yet, funny thing is I didn't hear about it here before I registered.

The intro looked decent but I didn't want to map all my keys and play last night, too tired.

Oh, the download and install was a pain because I didn't have a GFW account. What a pita that shit is.
 
Ya GFWL needs to die. Instead, it's even worse now with the stupid GFWL Marketplace app.

Anyway, this game seems pretty fun. I played the original a tiny bit but not long enough to understand what was going on. Seems like it's a bit smoother and better balanced but I'm not seeing a huge difference? I like all the deployable structures and stuff like that. I think the maps are too big for how many people they let on though.

i actually thought the maps were decent size, since you can spawn anywhere, and you have the superfast run "overdrive" mode to get you places.

i didn't like BF because some maps were *so* big that you were screwed if you didn't have a vehicle to get around.
 
feel free to add me to your friend's list guys. i'll probably be playing tonight!

if you need email, it's my AT FS/FT email.
 
Got my invite and installed the game. Now I'm waiting for GFWL to update; of course no indication of how long it will take or even a download speed or anything, just a dumb blue bar that is moving very slowly; GFWL is a real piece of crap. :thumbsdown:

Anyway, hope to try it tonight sometime.

Played for a bit this morning. Pretty fun; kind of feels like a cross between Battlefield 2142, Halo, and Crysis. Was getting pretty well owned in MP, but I think I need to mess around with my controls so I am more comfortable. Not bad so far.

Finally got signed up, dunno if I'll get in on the beta or not but whatever. For some reason it would not send the activation email to my comcast email account so I went ahead and created an account under gmail instead and promptly received the email. How long did it take before you guys typically received invites?
