Hello space explorers,
It's been a year since this last happened, so listen up: starting on April 3rd and until April 7th, we'll be welcoming players to our studio for a playtest of Endless Space 2!
Here are some details, if you're interested and want to sign up for the playtest:
- You will playtest the then-public Update 3 version of Endless Space 2 with a member of the studio present to collect your feedback
- We will provide coffee, tea, snacks and also some goodies, including a special Playtester forum badge!
- The current version is only available in English
- This is a volunteer playtest, each selected playtester will get to play for about 2 hours
- Accommodation & transportation fees are at your own charge
- You will meet the Amplitude team and visit our studio in Paris (note that unfortunately, the building does not have reduced mobility access)
DISCLAIMER: Since the test is happening on a build that will at the time already be available, in Paris, on a weekday, and travel & accomodation are at your own expense, please don't pour your savings into it. We're always happy to meet our community members from around the world, but there'll be better occasions! Beer2Gether events come to mind...
If you are still interested, check out the requirements and our guidelines below.
REQUIREMENTS
- You need to be 18 years old or older
- Applications are open to anyone except members of the press or video game affiliates
- You need to speak either French or English but you must understand English, as it's the primary testing language for the game at the moment
- NDA: you will most likely see or hear things we aren't ready to share publicly yet! You will simply need to sign our non-disclosure agreement
GUIDELINES
Shoot us a message from a valid email address your basic info (full name, forums username, date of birth, address and profession), at playtest [at] amplitude-studios.com and a quick answer to all these questions (keep it short, please, we receive a lot of applications!):
- Which strategy games and 4X games other than Amplitude's have you enjoyed?
- Have you played Endless Space and/or Endless Legend? If so, how many hours? What was your favorite moment?
- Have you played Endless Space 2? Same questions as above!
- When will you be available for the playtest at the studio in Paris? List one or several days during which you will be available between the 3rd and the 7th of April and the time of day during which you are available: morning and/or afternoon (from 10am to 1pm and 2pm to 8pm)?
There is no wrong answer as we are interested in all player profiles (especially newbies as they're harder to reach! Tell your friends in Paris!), so just be honest and we will consider your application.
DEADLINE
The deadline for submissions is March 8th, at midday (GTM +1). We will get in touch asap if you have been selected, so make sure you check your emails!
Please do not submit your details if you don’t meet the requirements listed above. Thank you and good luck!
