Just a little reminder that the pre-order beta for Global Agenda is scheduled to begin today, Thursday January 7th.

Those that have pre-ordered the game will be able to jump on when it goes live today and anyone who still wants to get in can easily do so by pre-ordering Global Agenda for themselves.

With Global Agenda's release date fast approaching, the guys from TenTonHammer have taken some time with Todd Harris to discuss Global Agenda's mission types.


Be sure to check out the whole article for more info on all the mission goodness.

With the recent announcement of Global Agenda's release date and most certainly impending open beta, I have decided to ramp up completion of my new project. To effectively bring this project to the community I need to recruit a few people interested in taking a few minutes to do some testing and provide any feedback they might have.

If anyone out there is interested in getting involved, please send me a private message or email so I can get you into our beta board.

Hi-Rez Studios has officially announced the Global Agenda release date as February 1, 2010! You may remember Steam leaking this date a little while back, but now it's been confirmed. Additionally, they've opened up pre-orders on the Global Agenda site, Steam, and Amazon marketplace. Some of the benefits include:

• Gain access to Beta – Players that pre-order will gain access to Global Agenda beta events in January. Note that the beta servers are available for play only during specific play test windows, and that tests may be limited to only certain game features. To participate in the Global Agenda beta, you must register your Product Key online at the Global Agenda website following your pre-purchase. Registered beta participants will receive specific test instructions prior to each Closed Beta test event, as the events are announced.
• In-game Items – Players that activate their Product Key on the Global Agenda website prior to February 1, 2010, will receive a special in-game helmet captured from the Commonwealth, as well as head flair honoring the Global Agenda "No Elves" marketing campaign.
• Reserve Your Player Name and Agency Name - Gain access to Global Agenda’s pre-launch “Name Reserve” event, in which players are given the opportunity to reserve their in-game name ahead of launch day (exact dates for the Name Reserve event to be announced). Players will also be able to reserve an Agency name during the game’s official launch.

Some of you may have noticed that the awesome dev posts started slowing down in the dev tracker the past couple weeks. Believe it or not I was actually updating that board semi-manually and it was truly a pain. However, I personally liked the quick access to developer posts so much that I decided to finally sit down and build an automated crawler to do the work for me at regular intervals.

With that said, the automated crawler is now online and populating the dev tracking board. Hope you enjoy it!
