I was about to say that too lol

Make sure to add me Physiologic. I have my name reserved so.... I plan on downloading it as soon as it is put up on V Cast.

Obviously Verizon must have paid money to hold the rights to host the exclusive limited beta. I realize that Apple users can't be beta testers because of Apple's App Store rules. But why is STS shafting the rest of the Android phone users?

Don't feed the nonsense that you wanted a "Limited" beta so Verizon's Vcast was the best option to accomplish that. There are other ways to offer a limited beta without restricting non verizon users. How about allowing the long time Pocket Legends accounts to be the limited beta testers. So say the 10,000 oldest original accounts, you know the people who stayed and paid your company money the longest. Or allow the people who purchased the most platinum to be the "limited" testers. You don't even have to get the Beta Test approved on the Android Market, just release the .apk to the limited beta testers privately. Wouldn't the longest playing Pocket Legends players be the best audience to beta test thoroughly?

Also, allowing any Android device to be a beta tester would help test the game on a broader range of Android devices. Since Android platform is harder to program games for because of the broad range of different Android devices with varying hardware specs. How many different android model phones does Verizon have, maybe 20?

But it obviously came down to the money exchanged with being partners to Verizon's V-cast service. It's a shame to all the real hardcore Pocket Legends supporters on other non Verizon android devices. All about the money!! I'd expect more out of small studio like STS, shame on you guys.

We did not receive any money from Verizon. This was a decision we made to keep the beta small while we polish the content for a larger audience.

Still no sign of SL in v cast market.....keep refreshing like crazy

I've been playing PL almost since the beginning and tbh I really don't mind missing the beta a whole load. Oc it's out of my hands as I'm an iOS user!

That said your post is intelligent but no need to falsely accuse the STS crew... They've surely built a lot credit with players with their awesome support (albeit less time to answer everyone/thing on the forums!)? I'd always play it cool hand BEFORE you're gonna cry foul, first?! eg above^ As said devs surely deserve that much respect?

So people who don't have verizon-- Can they test SL or no?

Only if your lucky enough to win a beta key account from a partner website.
more details on this will be posted when the beta has started.

Hey, can't u just make it the real name on the app store, but when it goes to the login screen, can't you just put the word beta there? When it's ready, you could just make an update to take off the beta word. Plz do this. I have been waiting to play this game for so long.

[Pokechmp]

No 1 steal my names!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, this just reminded me: I could get my name stolen form the early beta players! I planned to be one of the first ones to play so I could get my name back and not spend that platinum, but now I get it late. Plz use my idea above

[Pokechmp]

Another idea: ok, so once I downloaded this app called we farm and I opened it. Then, a window popped up saying that I had to download the new version, we farm safari. You could do that with star legends.

Just wanted to say to the give and take between DROID and IOS , it is inevitable someone wont be happy. But know in the end so many more will by having it available to both platforms so we can play together.

As for the Ios crowd unhappy this time around you had PL a long time ahead of us DROID guys and the whole founders helm fiasco.... STS isn't perfect but been around the block to know they do pretty damn well and seen enough of the bad to appreciate the good when I see it...

To quote Bart... "CAN'T WAIT!"

[alexjp]

Vanced i was just wanted to tell you im not aruging with you ,but like android has gotten tv commericals , android suit, and other stuff. ios has gotten founder's helm and first ppl to play pl. Again im not arguing i get what he is saying about ios players complaining about not playing and thats how the android guys felt when they had to wait for pocket legends .

[Cascade]

Having to "win" beta access seems pretty lame to me...

EDIT: Also not very happy that verizon dudes are getting the beta without having to enter a contest or anything...

I am so excited to smite some alien scum.
