Your not supposed to say

FYI In order to actually play the beta you have to accept a non-disclosure agreement which apparently says you're not allowed to talk about the fact that you got in.

Why? O____o

AmmonErebos

not sure if it is still the case as it is unclear currently... if mentioning you are in the BETA is a violation of the NDA for participating in the beta... but you can however discuss changes to current classes based on your experiences in the beta

RIP NDA

MarkusLiberty

If this is anything like the closed betas I've ever been in, you're not actually supposed to tell anyone. Perhaps you should read the entire email?

Iskrasfemme

"Participation in the beta is subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Beta Agreement. Please do not stream, capture video, or discuss your experience with the game outside the Official Beta Forums."

only this, nothing about 'u CANT SAY': 'I've been invited to the Morrowind Closed Beta! Bookmark'

wolfdoggie_ESO

Uh oh, you broke the DNA NDA already. They're going to reverse-send the email and revoke your privileges naow.

Iskrasfemme

Serious, people not read rules and talk about rules (complain about all, every time, about everithing) ...because other guy has invited...

-_-

Dantaria

A ridiculous system, to be fair.

ZoS, you really should consider including "don't tell anyone about invitation" in the letter itself. Because people get letters before they even have a chance to see NDA text.

Not knowing a law doesn't free you from responsibility, yes. But... not even having an opportunity to know the law?

Yea I too got an email.

just like with any other closed betas, you're not actually supposed to tell anyone, I doubt this is any different

LOL you are one of those kids with "don't do it because teacher said it's bad".

So let me get this straight for you, boy:
I never asked to participate in closed beta.
I never planned to participate in closed beta.
As you probably realised by now I'm not going to play in PTS.

ZOS need to pay for this kind of service. Next time I want to see that E-mail with atleast 25% game discount.

It's people like you who work for free. You feel like you are contributing something to the game, but actually you are just wasting your time working for free. Good luck.

Think it's a bug. Alot of people are getting them.

Oops... I guess the first rule of beta is... don't talk about beta.

Rickter

I guess this begs the question: why did he get one now and not with the initial wave? like waht determines who gets an invite?

Iskrasfemme

just to all know:

"IMPORTANT: Participation in the beta is subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Beta Agreement. Please do not stream, capture video, or discuss your experience with the game outside the Official Beta Forums."

Your EXPERIENCE, not about invitation.

but, let one

About EXPERIENCE in game.

Hi everyone,

As of right now, we are partially lifting the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) specifically for the balance changes made to the four existing classes. This means you’ll be allowed to talk publicly outside of this forum area about the changes for the four existing classes and how they affect your character on the PTS in different scenarios, including how your characters perform in the new Battlegrounds and Trial.

Please note that the NDA still applies to any content in the Morrowind Chapter such as Vvardenfell, the Warden class, Battlegrounds, and Halls of Fabrication. For the latter two, it’s fine to discuss how your characters perform in them for the sake of class performance and balance discussions, but please refrain from divulging details about the Battlegrounds and Trial.

If you have any questions about this, please don’t hesitate to ask.


so it is allowed to say it, since its kinda impossible to not talk about stuff thats are allowed, without saying you are in beta

@Rickter Gina did say last week that they would send out more invites each week.

I'm going to say if you were a previous tester at some point, a regular pts tester, someone who pre-ordered Morrowind, etc.

SydneyGrey

ZOS has said on the forums that people aren't supposed to mention if they'd been invited to the beta.
However, it would be REALLY NICE if they actually put that in the e-mail they send you, instead of depending on people reading about it in the forums.

Apparently they're sending out another wave of invites.

yes but no where does it say revealing you are in the beta is lifted... so technically is still a violating if you admit you are part of the closed beta

LOL

You're talking like you didn't simply receive the e-mail. One might think that ZoS employee broke into your appartment, put a gun to your head and screamed, "GO TO CLOSED BETA OR WE'LL LOCK THE GAME AND YOU DIE"

It's an opportunity Not an obligation. You want to? Go for it! You don't want to/don't have the time? No repercussions. Simple as that.

Majeure

Indeed as others have pointed out, you are not allowed to discuss your selection as a beta tester. That goes against the NDA.

However that is not in the mail, and if you have yet to login to the PTS, then you have yet to agree to the NDA, so it's a bit of a gray area...
