Killzone 3 Beta Codes ‘This Afternoon’

Those of you sat in front of your monitors repeatedly hitting ‘refresh’ on your email, desperately scanning your inbox for those magic words “Welcome to the Killzone 3 Beta” are going to have wait a couple more hours. Sony have tweeted the following:

“For those asking about the #killzone3 beta emails, I’ve been told that voucher codes will be sent out early this afternoon.”

We will have a full hands-on preview of what you can expect just as soon as we can call off the SCEE snipers. I currently have a red laser sight dot on my forehead and until it vanishes I can’t tell you anything else.

Update: I’ve just read on the closed Beta forums that a patch has been released and has literally just gone live, I expect this is why you have yet to recieve a code, they were waiting for the patch to be uploaded.

  1. lucky sods :(

  2. Back to work for me then, at least for another couple of hours.

  3. What time is Early afternoon? 3pm?4pm?5pm?

    • i would imagine it’s closer to lunchtime than teatime, if that’s any help :)

  4. I reckon 3:00-5:00 it’ll arrive to anyone that got the code.

  5. How long does the beta last? I got in there at 8pm for my Killzone 3 Theme so I’m fairly confident I would recieve an email if what they said about 10000 going in about 30 mins is correct.

    • this is a different beta invite samiro05.
      the one you’re talking about is for Plus members; this one was for any PS3 owner who followed killzone 3 on twitter i think.

      • This is the PS+ and the Twitter beta I think.

      • Well thanks for that cus I have no code yet and I’m hoping this is the reason. Was lookin’ forward to coming home to play it but no luck :(

      • wheres my beta code? has anyone got a code yet? eu blog says they were sending them out in batches 5 hours ago

    • The beta will run for a couple of weeks.

    • yea me 2 but no code yet . wtf its now nearly half 4 and no code . plz anyone if u know when there going live pllz say

      • no one knows apart from sony and and the developers, calm down dear

    • I got the code between 8 and 9, possibly exactly half way. Either way, I have the beta and it works brillantly :)

      I wish you could level up your online character offline on some of these games, if only a very small amount in comparison. Actually come to think of it then I’d never play online and it’d ruin the whole multiplayer experience a tad bit with erm.. no multiple players.

  6. But when is early afternoon!? It could be now, in which case where’s my code :P

    • Mayabe you didnt get one.. *evil laugh* *strokes white fluffy cat*

      • When i get in, i’m gonna hunt you and your cat down :P Then we’ll see who’s laughin :)

      • 8pm. Tonight. Ill be the mean mofo with turrets. Oh, didnt you know? PROPER beta testers get to keep all their stats and upgrades when you noobs arrive. ITS GOING TO BE A SLAUGHTER! HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAH!

      • isn’t that a violation of your NDA??

      • *reads carefully* Nope.

      • If it was then than SCEE Sniper would of taken a shot by noqweqweroi;wejf’wE@AeLFE

      • wait until i find the shotgun then you’re for it :P I’m gonna sneak up behind you and make you jump :)

      • That would actually make sense for killzone: since it tries to put you in games with people the same level as you, if the players already there kept their level it would mean all us new noobs would only be playing each other and not them, therefor having a much better learning curve.

      • Oh bloody hurry up and lift the embargo SCEE!

  7. I’m saying before 3, if 6 is classed as evening, then early afternoon is before half that… 3.

    • And the fact that 3-5 is Prevening.

    • yeah but this is Sony we are talking about here so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was more like 6 or 7

  8. Argh, I’ve got PS Plus, but forgot to download the theme or whatever it was :(

  9. I need a new keyboard for this afternoon, the F5 key is mysteriously dieing

  10. Fingers crossed, luck rabbits foot, touching wood (not like that), and all the other stupid luc charm thingymabobs
    Hope I get in
