Fallen Earth alpha test begins, beta testing to follow

The massive multiplayer online game (MMOG) Fallen Earth‘s alpha testing game is going to begin this week, on August 14, 2008, and People who stop by GameSpot and sign up may have the chance to participate. So far, over 130 people have posted to apply for an alpha or beta testing position. Alpha testing is currently set to run until sometime in Q1 2009, and beta testing should begin shortly after.

If you want to apply, head to GameSpot, register and post on the event page. You have to give some basic information in your post (CPU, ram, graphics card and OS) in order to be considered. The Fallen Earth team will then select the first round of alpha testers based on information provided, when testers applied, the testers’ schedules and their internet connection speeds.

Fallen Earth is set in 2156, after a plague called Shiva and a nuclear attack killed almost everyone. One of the last hospitable areas, the Grand Canyon, is where players will struggle to survive and try to rebuild after such a devastating tragedy. Supposedly there will be various factions, each with different goals and ideals, that also factor into the game. It sounds like it may have potential. (Or at the very least, something a fellow Gamertell writer may enjoy – if his computer can handle it.)
