Battleborn Closed Technical Test Begins October 29th
Battleborn's previously announced Closed Technical Test now has been revealed to be starting on October 29th. The tests will be taking place on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and will be used to "balance characters, stress servers, squash bugs, and test the online infrastructure." Contrary to the previously announced 70 GB required, the client will be between 4 GB and 8 GB, depending on your platform of preference. The full, finalized requirements are as follows.
- OS: Windows 7 x64-Bit or Later
- Processor: Intel Core2 Extreme CPU Q6850/ AMD A8-3870k (Quad Core CPU’s)
- Memory: 6 GB
- Hard Disk Space: 10 GB free
- Video Memory: 2 GB
- Video Card: AMD HD 7700/ NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or better, PhysX support
- Sound: DirectX 11 Compliant
The test will still have an NDA. Given that character balance testing is a major part of this testing phase, and launch is four months away, the team stresses that "things will change before the game ships in February." They want you to "be cool" and not post anything about the technical tests publicly, should you get in.
You can find the original announcement here. You can still register now, should you want a chance at playing early.
