Face of Mankind Open Beta

AaronH copies and pastes: "'Face of Mankind is an MMORPG set in the 24th century. You are invited to play out the ageless battle of good vs. evil, and witness all shades of gray in between. Role-playing and your real-life skills are the raw ingredients of game play. This MMORPG uses the first ever player-generated mission system, and combines it with sophisticated economics and complex player politics for a new kind of online experience. Only your ability to shoot, bargain, politic and otherwise duck and deal will advance your character's private or corporate agenda. The success of each and every mission will determine your rise to the top, or your fall into obscurity. Whatever path you take in this astonishing world, plan well: one day, one minute or a single second could bring you to your destiny as the true Face of Mankind. The first download mirrors for the open beta client have been put up. The servers themselves will be open for open beta testers on Monday.' Fileplanet has a few trailers while ya wait for the servers to come online."

Here is a mirror for the trailers, so you can avoid the lines and registration of Fileplanet. No torrent, sorry.

Haven't found a torrent of the beta, either. Hopefully someone can dredge one up.

Eh, the official page has a link to a torrent in its "downloads" page.

And that link is here.

Email me at vishus@gmail.com if you are interested in joining a Slashdot guild during FoM's open beta. I think it would be fun to game with fellow Slashdotters.

Here's a tip for any idiots who are making a startup game and want to release it to large numbers of people who probably will need some incentive to be interested in your game since it isn't mainstream and wellknown:

DON'T USE FILEPLANET!

Gamers hate it, but are forced to use it because everybody gets their files hosted their. The waits are a pain in the ass. Why use anything OTHER than bittorrent now that it has become mainstream, would really help your server load, and would get it to a lot more people a lot quicker since people could simply copy/paste the torrent link to their friends.
