Title: Need for Speed World
Post by: Titan on July 07, 2010, 09:15:27 am: weird how I never heard about this until a day ago. That said, ~~it's going to be F2P~~ (nobody knows), and the open beta ~~is on now~~ expires tonight. My understanding is that your account ~~WON'T be reset when they go full release,~~ will be nuked and you get a few sweet bonuses for ~~playing the beta.~~ coughing up $20.

EA have~~n't~~ seem to become dicks over this ~~yet,so get it while it's hot~~. My username is Schnozzle. :)

Announcement of beta extended to expire tonight. (http://www.needforspeed.com/post/world-open-beta-extended-again?page=1#comment-21274)

EDIT: Oh, and they will be resetting your stuff, as a way to thank people for participating in the beta. The rich pricks seem very happy about that.
