I agree... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

...not about the 'not buying the game' part though... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

but we want more info...

videos...screenshots.......

How long vacation do the Atari workers have???? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Two months ago, they mentioned something about a video with land battles. Lets hope that when it comes out, it will be good (any info at this point will be good, actually <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ). <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
Maybe the're waiting for beta test to start before any new info is released, which is coming up real soon ( I read somewhere its going to start in August). One can only hope.




P.S Im only kidding about not buyin the game. It will take an act of God to stop me from buying this game... Or maybe a large electric bill. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Bah, don't worry. If there's a beta test, you can be 100% sure that most of the testers are gonna be from fansites such as this.

...And don’t forget that you will also receive a beta version of the CD if you get chosen, so after that, who needs screenshots and videos? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

I can't talk exact numbers, but I can tell you this. Remember that only subscribers to Avast! will get the link to apply for the beta program. Given our current Avast! subscriber base, and the number of people we're considering for the beta, I'd say the chance of being selected is somewhere between 5%-10%, depending on how many people we can squeeze into the program and how much further the subscriber base grows over the next few weeks.

Good luck to all, and you'll see more info on this by the end of the month.
