IL-2 Korea Beta Test

[Geronimo]

Hello!

I am unable to send the lead tester, Akephal a message. Do I just submit the form? I have already done so.

[robbiec]

Have experienced the same issue. Perhaps the user mailbox has been overloaded 🙂

[Rjel]

I didn't really think I'd be the first to apply, but I was hoping to get my application in before the the masses crashed the system. 😉 

[Dexadrinne]

Yes same here aswell. Form was filled out and sent.

[LukeFF]

Guys, if anyone wasn't able to send a message to Valery, please try again now.

[robbiec]

Working now. Thanks

Well, I'm excited to request my continuation.
You know that for me, dedicating myself to Alpha and Beta Testing is another way to experience aviation and simulation.
I can't remember a time when simulator testing didn't excite me and make me want to help find those "potential" bugs. Even after my father passed away in December, I've still managed to dedicate some time to finding bugs.

Anyway, I hope to continue seeing my friends and colleagues.

Count me in

Bonjour les Aviateurs,

je viens de postuler et cela me plairait beaucoup de participer, ca sera une première pour moi.

Grand passionné d'aviation à hélices, je pratique la série IL2 depuis le premier du nom, il a 26 ans maintenant.

Retraité, j'ai du temps à consacrer.

Je vous souhaite bons vols et CAVOK

--------------------------------------------------

Hello fellow pilots,

I just applied and I would love to participate; it will be my first time.

A huge propeller aircraft enthusiast, I've been flying the IL-2 series since the very first one, which is 26 years old now.

Now retired, I have plenty of time to spare.

Happy flying and CAVOK!

I've applied for the BETA testing..... even though, (tbh), my specs may be below par, ...so probably looking at an upgrade, or two?.....🤪

But, the fact that this opportunity has opened up, just proves how serious ICGS are about getting everything right! 

I can happily wait, for that! 👍👍

I'm truly excited to know we're getting a new state of the art   flight sim, soon! 

...Of course, Great Battles still has endless hours of top quality fun in the tank!!!

Tally ho!!!!    See you up there?!

🤩

I'm a little late to signing up, but hopefully I'm not too late. Would love to fly some Korea era birds, and take a break from early access MiG-29 in DCS. (If only for a little while) want to relive my youth playing F-86s and MiG-15s in Chuck Yeagers Air Combat.

Excited to be back, hopefully my application is accepted.

I took a break after releasing BON, life just got overwhelming but I always hoped to be back for Korea.

[TRShrum]

My application submission was accepted.  My first time applying for something like this.  Would be nice if accepted.  However, I will understand if not.  The rest of you have in any event.  Thank you.

Do we know when they will announce selections for the beta?

Good morning, all,

I just emailed my copy of the NDA to Valery this morning. Can't wait to sink my teeth into this new sim! Looking forward to seeing you all upstairs!

Hello,

I assume that since we haven't heard back, we weren't selected?

Have a great day, everyone!

Patience young Padawan, things take time...

[DieSchwarze13]

I really hope to hear back. I would love nothing more than to help this series. IL2 Birds of Prey, Great Battles, and now Korea. BoP and GB are my favorite all time games. It would be such an honor to be able to help test this new sim.

The submissions just ended. Give them at least day or two to filter them out.

I was one of the lucky ones, just a little confused by the meaning of "registered at" following the Passport# on the NDA, what is that for? Also, I was notified by email of a Forum DM from Valery (Akephal), replied to both to cover it but the email was a "noreply" address...

Got caught a bit the same. Registered at, your country. I didn't put my passport number, just UK.

I put "US Embassy" (here in Spain, where I live), and asked him about it, have not heard back so I assume it's ok.. I did also supply PassPort#..

I took it to mean the country whose passport is used as your primary passport.

My understanding is that one is to reply to the DM with an upload the scanned document as an attachment to your reply (within the forum software).

 

Any questions should be directed to Akephal/Valery via DM. The forum isn't really the right place for this.

[Darkline]

It says im unable to message Valery. Can anyone help? I did not know that you had to message Valery i only knew about the application which i submitted last week. 

Update: I figured it out. I just hope I'm not too late! Congrats to those who were selected and I hope I will join you in the coming days!

Update

[Sulaco]

Glad to see some folks are getting replies to their applications, thanks for letting us know they've started to go out - I haven't heard anything yet on my end but my fingers and toes are crossed.
