Paradox Interactive has announced details on how to sign up for the closed beta of their upcoming strategy RPG title Sengoku.

The game is created by the Paradox Interactive internal development team that has previously created Hearts of Iron series, the Europa Universalis series and the grand strategy game Victoria II.

In this deep character driven strategy game, you play as the head of an illustrious Samurai family. Civil war has broken out and it is every man for himself in the provinces.
Sengoku is set to release on PC on September 13, 2011.

Sign up for the Sengoku Closed Beta now at:
http://beta.paradoxplaza.com/

Applicants can request beta access until midday May 23th, 2011.

If you are selected for a place in the Closed Beta,
you will receive a confirmation e-mail the 25th of May.

Done.
Hope you take me this time. I have two new naughty puppies in need of extra work (2 x AMD 6950 2048 MB in Crossfire). ;)
 
after clicking "submit" there is no confirmation that the submission was successful send? at least for me the next page only had the paradox banner (which links to beta.paradox.com) but the rest was white, no "Thank You" :(

Have some faith people. :)
 
I've never been involved in a beta testing. What will be my commitments and how long will the testing go on for?

The devs will need to answer this with more certainty, but this much I can say:

The beta will last till release, and probably a bit longer (first patch), as stated by the beta application form.

You'll be expected to try to "break" the game -- find bugs. This is different from playing a game, as it's more repetitive and tedious. No-one would expect you to put in 50 hours per week (you do it in your free time after all), but I guess if you can't devote a full evening per week (~5 hours/week) to testing you might be a bit on the low side.

I missed CK, but couldn't let this pass me by. I always wondered what it would be like to test a "true" Paradox game. Keeping my fingers crossed ;)

Thanks for telling us! I've fixed it.

It's not that bad ;P

Yes, we would like you to break the game as much as possible, but we also want you to write about game balance and things that you find interesting. You will be able to tell us what you like about games like this, and what we can do to make them better.

The key to having fun is to try out things that you like... When all fun areas are propely tested I will have to test all the rest :( (And I still like it)
 
It should be fixed now...

Nice. I'm not picking on you ( just trying to impress with my proofreading skills ;) ). Right on the first page it says: "... sign up does not automatically means that ..." - there should be no "s" there.
"It means" is correct and "it does not mean" is correct, but "it does not means" ?

Edited: :rolleyes:

This was the first error/typo mentioned in this thread that I did not do ;P ... Fixed
