Game Testing for Star Wars: The Old Republic is underway! Those selected to test will gain access to the game and be able to provide valuable feedback to help us tune particular areas of gameplay and begin the process of balancing and tweaking our content.
Game Testing is an on-going process being rolled out in several phases. These phases began with smaller, more focused tests with community members from North America, and later will expand to other territories. Users selected for the test program will be notified via email with more information on accessing the Game Testing Portal. If you've not been chosen yet, you may be selected in the next wave!
If you haven't signed up already, its definitely not too late! If you're not already a member of the Star Wars: The Old Republic community, click here to become one today! Be sure to check the box to indicate you are interested in becoming a tester. If you're already a member, go to the Game Testing Portal to begin the sign up process. Note that you must be at least 18 years of age to accept the Game Tester Agreement.

Were looking forward to your help in making Star Wars: The Old Republic a success!
A second post on the topic illustrates the importance of confidentiality:
One thing to remember...
Being able to have the community help us test The Old Republic is very important and valuable to the development process. The Game Testing Program allows community members to give us quality feedback so we can make adjustments and have a highly effective service and entertaining experience when we do launch. Our expectation is that players of The Old Republic will follow the terms of the Game Testing Agreement and ensure that the confidential pre-release information we're sharing with community members remains confidential.
We were also informed of Star Wars
Comic-Con International is coming to San Diego, California! Get connected with Star Wars: The Old Republic at several booths as well as at the "Beyond Solo: Crafting the Multiplayer Story" panel taking place during the event. And don't forget, Friday, July 23rd is Star Wars Day! Arrive dressed as your favorite class or character from The Old Republic to show your support!

*Small Note: We want to ensure our entire community is up-to-date, so this announcement has been localized on each of our event pages (English, French, and German). If you're not able to attend this affect, no worries... we'll be at others such as Celebration V, GamesCom, and PAX!

Posted 7/12/2010 9:05:24 PMFrom Emlaeh,
"We (any member of the Darth Hater staff) cannot reveal if we are in Game Testing or not.
And for those who are saying BioWare and LucasArts shouldn't let Darth Hater participate in game testing: have some faith in us!!!!! :) "
On a side note: It should also be mentioned that Sean stated that no members of any fan-sites or media where invited to this round of testing.

Posted 7/12/2010 11:24:48 PMSo I would not say this is "testing the game..." at all, rather a "demo".

Posted 7/13/2010 12:40:08 AMBut I did like what was seen, and from the map's (trooper vid) and the lay-out the worlds are rather large. Considering it's been mentioned that the starting planets are the smallest of the "13"!!
