Battlefield: Heroes beta sign-ups begin

Go, go, go! Save the cheerleader!

DICE has begun taking names for the Battlefield: Heroes closed beta test.

Scoot over to the official sign-up page to put your name down. There are some terms and conditions to read and a forum to register for, presumably so you can report your bugs and what not.

Battlefield: Heroes is the ad-driven, free-to-play spin-off in the popular online shooter series aimed at almost everyone with a desktop computer - the system requirements have been cut down to suit the masses.

Its cartoon presentation means it never looks ugly - far from it, in fact - and customisation and character-levelling gives longevity for those who want it.

The full game is due out sometime this summer.

Head over to our Battlefield: Heroes gamepage for videos, screenshots, and words on why this could be enormous.

    In that case I'll let everyone else test, it, then hopefully dick about in game when it's out. Especially with that price.

    well.. the only thing that seems to work on that website is the registration page, the rest seems to be blank!

    Hmm, I didn't get any confirming mail after signing up.

    @STKD: From the signup:

    You agree that your participation in the Beta Program does not constitute an employment Agreement or offer of such an agreement, between you and EA and that EA does not ask and/or require you to work a certain number of hours, shifts, etc. as part of your participation in the program and that your participation in the program is strictly voluntary and done solely for your personal enjoyment; and, further that EA expects you only to use your leisure time to participate in this program, and does not expect you to forego other activities, including gainful employment, during the time you spend participating in this voluntary program. You may stop being a volunteer tester of the Game at any time that you wish.

    This didn't sound like any teamspeak interviews?
