I didn't even know there was a world to get into.

Why can't I play with the shiny?

Don't worry. It's clunky shiny.

Out of curiosity when you sign up to create an avatar, is the male sex greyed out for anyone other than me? o_0

What did they get back to you on?

a) The Viewer download link?

b) The SDK (Editor) download link?

c) The Blue Mars log-in details?

Rock

PS I have had a) and b) but not c) or details about the competition.

No, they specifically say in the beta agreement that we can't disclose pretty much anything except that the beta exists. But I do know/have heard that it uses the CryEngine, so if you google that, you'll find some of what the world can do


And as for what I'm excited about, I'm downloading the viewer and I was accepted as a Dev

I didn't get any new download links, and my old link to the SDK is now broken.

Time to send them an email, I suppose.

EDIT: Oh, and I can't log on to the forum or reregister, either. My rapid disenchantment continues apace.

Not from within Blue Mars itself as yet, that is still under the NDA.

However, pics from within the Sandbox 2 (identical to the Blue Mars Editor except for the avatar generation) ARE available.

Check out the gallery here:

Life On Mars - Some of my favourites

Just to whet and wet (pun intended) your appetite, if you look at Alps 2, that water, when it swells and breaks over those pebbles on the lakeshore, then swells out again, the pebbles are left wet and dripping!

This is amazing stuff.

Send them an email and ask. They do respond to reminders.

Still waiting on the cold side of the fence.

Not a peep from them since the email that said
Quote:
Thank you for contacting Avatar Reality. To learn more about becoming a
content developer in Blue Mars, I'd first suggest signing up for our Sandbox
Viewer here: https://www.bluemarsonline.com/VAC/registration.html It's
totally free and we've already started sending out download links. We're
moving through the list in order so it may be a few days before you get your
link. The editor will allow you to quickly get up to speed on bringing
content into the Blue Mars environment.
That was over a month ago.

Edit: Scratch that, reverse it.

After I posted this, I shot off a reply email to the guy who contacted me, basically saying "I'm still here, and it's been a few more days than a few days.. am I still in the queue?" 6 hours later.. I got the "Congrats click this, read this, click this, do this, get this don't do this or that or else this will happen to you" link in my email.

So, as so many have commented, what I can say is, "I have been accepted as a beta tester & developer for the Blue Mars closed beta.". What that will mean, is anyone's guess.. but I'm innit.

Ofcourse I still don't have the SDK, which was really what I wanted the most. All the other stuff is nice, but I want to play with the SDK.

I also want to be a guy again.
