Andeh Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) When I applied, I didn't get any email at all (And that was a few months ago!) I guess I won't be one of the testers then. EDIT: I just got an invite with a code and download! Edited March 10, 2010 by Andy_D6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireHawk302 Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) I just got the email, installing the game right now. EDIT: is it legal to post a link directly to the download? Edited March 10, 2010 by FireHawk302 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jebediahs Posted March 10, 2010 Let me know if you can choose sand green skin color when you get in. O-R-R-R-C-C! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andeh Posted March 10, 2010 Aww, well the thing is that there are certain times that you can play it. I was hoping it was 24/7 like other Closed Beta games. Will they have 24/7 server later? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidcross Posted March 10, 2010 Just got my code; going to try installing it into my Windows XP VM tonight. (I use a Mac, so I run Windows via VMware Fusion.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewDB Posted March 10, 2010 Welp I can confirm more keys are going out. 3 of my friends and I just got our keys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Ranger Posted March 10, 2010 Welp I can confirm more keys are going out. 3 of my friends and I just got our keys. Wait, so is this the one Lego sent out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trionx Posted March 11, 2010 (edited) Just got my key an hour ago, so hopefully I'll see you guys in there. Edited March 11, 2010 by Darth Bionics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col. Brik Posted March 11, 2010 Pleasantly surprised to see I got a key in my email box this morning Thank you, Lego, I'll be enjoying the game this evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidcross Posted March 11, 2010 I was able to install it into a Windows XP VM last night with no problems. Though, I couldn't sign in yet, as the beta's only playable on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I believe. :) Still, the 3D ran fairly smoothly on the sign-in screen!

Sammael Posted March 11, 2010 So, I played Universe for about 10 minutes. I hated it. It's a platform game with horrible graphics and very poor controls. I know it's a beta, and I'll give it another try, but the fact that I wasn't the least bit bothered when I saw the "Connection to server lost" (which boots you out of the game) should tell you something. Character customization is limited to minifig appearance only. There are no RPG stats or anything (that I could see). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewDB Posted March 11, 2010 ... it's for kids. Did you expect it to be complex? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get to nimbus station. IT won't let me go. It says the launch pads aren't open. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sammael Posted March 11, 2010 ... it's for kids.Did you expect it to be complex? The fact that it's for kids doesn't mean it should have bad graphics or horrible user interface. I'm not asking for complexity, really. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get to nimbus station. IT won't let me go.It says the launch pads aren't open. Did you build a rocket? You need to build a rocket and then put it into a launch pad. Then you get to Nimbus where you get to do a lot of pointless hack and slash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The other pads are "closed". :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoLink Posted March 12, 2010 I made it in as well! I can't make it to nimbus either. Probably, just a bug in the program, it is a beta anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud99 Posted March 12, 2010 It has alot of bugs, too bad I can't talk about it either. I'd talk about it on some blog for my subscibers. But so far, I'm not impressed with the game, but I suppose it is for kids... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewDB Posted March 12, 2010 I made it in as well! I can't make it to nimbus either. Probably, just a bug in the program, it is a beta anyway. I don't think Nimbus is unlocked yet. The launcher says: "The battle will soon continue in Nimbus Station!" Which means.. we're getting access to it soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brickme Posted March 12, 2010 Beta Update: According to the patching thing when you load the game, Next thursday, March 18th there will be a new and updated patch for the game. It advises everybody who made custom models in the game to tear them apart to avoid losing bricks. Any custom model that remains will be deleted. This is what I gleaned from the message. I for one hope that the many problems I reported will be fixed. Also any person who has gotten somewhat far in the game please pm me as I need assistance. Also since I'm bored today I went screwing around with the help topics and found out that the Closed beta test hours will be increased and the amount of days will be increased. leg godt, brickme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodger Posted March 13, 2010 Is it possible to change the keys in the beta? Under options, the 'controls' button doesn't do anything. Having arrows+mouse for movement and space to jump is not that easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Ranger Posted March 13, 2010 (edited) I got a key! But I have a computer that has Windows 7, when it was meant for something else... It is a crappy computer. Edited March 13, 2010 by Dark Ranger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
