Close this windowFuncom Defends Fileplanet Use for AoC Beta
Posted April 30th, 2008 by Morvelaira
Funcom says beta will always be an expense to them.
MMORPG.com's Jon Wood got a chance to talk to Jorgen Tharaldsen of Funcom, to discuss Funcom's decision to use Fileplanet as the primary method of distributing the open beta.
“First of all,” Tharaldsen began in response to a question about Funcom charging for their beta, “I think it’s very important to point out that Funcom has not charged anything throughout our beta process, including the 20.000 keys on Gamespot last weekend, the many, many thousands of keys given to Eidos or the tens of thousands of people we have selected through the ongoing closed beta.”
