I know everyone is excited about the Rise of Kunark beta. I asked around several popular forums to find out what it is, exactly, that makes beta testing so special, and got some interesting answers.

Add to than an exclusive interview with Scott "Gallenite" Hartsman about beta invites from a development point of view, and, well, we're All A-Buzz About Beta!

I guess higher levels are excited. But as a 50 necro I could really care less. I can't use the lvl 1 to 20 content and Obviously I am aways off from the 60+ content. Id just assume they slow down the level cap increase myself. I mean this game hasn't been out even half as long as eq1 and the level cap is higher then everquest 1's.

This is a turn off to new prospect players. A person who has never touched the game is going to be intimidated by these higher level caps. I think they should have only done 5 levels at a time when they did the level cap increase. I can see the need to increase it to keep the hardcore eat/sleep/live video game people content, but they should still consider those of us with normal lives and a 40 hour a week job.

The only thing that ever even perked a interest in me was a possibility of new AA's since as a mid range player I MIGHT actually use that. But its been confirmed that no new AA's would be in the expansion since we get the all so special epic quests that I will probably never have enough help to complete.

I love doing the new newb content. I adored Darklight woods!

I've never been a huge beta freak. I was in the Vanguard beta and ran down a few bugs. Didn't give me any big thrill. I prefer to just patiently wait for the finished product.
