Is it possible for a few individuals to be selected for beta testing? I wouldn't mind going for beta testing.

Same here, although I think they aren't even in alpha yet.

We haven't announced what path we will take when it comes to game playability before release, so I can't even partially confirm or deny that there will be beta and/or that they will be open.

At this stage, only our VIP have access to the build, and those are hand-picked players selected through a rigorous process. We have recently expanded the program so I don't believe we're looking for new members at this stage.

That's unfortunate, though I do wish for this game to be 100% polished- or as much time as it requires. By the by, who are the VIP members? Good luck! I have hopes for this game!

Would love to get my hands on the build...

Hello. Can I get in touch with you? I would like to take part in the development (translation) of the game and its coverage in Russian-language media.

Double it.

Ready here also.

I would also like to participate in testing when it opens up again.

Quick question, how one can become VIP to partake in the build?

Thanks for reply to the topic MythicAlex!

That being said though... if they ever had closed beta to apply for or open beta to provide feedback I'm there easily.

Really looking forward to this game i must say!

Considering that it is 2020 now, and with all(past) amplitude releases in between the months of may and octuber; i suppose we shall soon find out if there is an open alpha/beta in early access.

Regardless of the early access (or if the lack of early access) i hope the amplitude team best of luck in creating Humankind!

I also would love to test the game early! I am a huge Civilization Game Fan but Humankind looks very very interesting and I cant wait for play it! I never thought it could happen that CIV will have a strong opponent on this game genre. but what I saw until now is amazing.

Super interested in this too.

Hope I could get involved with the beta, and create a community translation in accordance with release.

I have played a lot of 4X. I played Endless Legend a lot (I'm the best multi player in the world with Grinder).

I also wrote a very complete guide to the game: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=635764665

And so, I would have liked to be beta test, I have an experience to bring, but unfortunately my current gear is too old for this new game.

Unless you make it available to beta testers via GeForce Now in preview, which could allow you to test both at the same time perhaps?

It seems impossible for a game in alpha / beta. Here, well, it is said. ^^

To developers,  would it be possible some where near the release date,  to make lottery of early access for a few lucky fellows?

Absolutely available for constructive player testing, I hope this option becomes available before official launch.

Available too!! 20 years experience of Civ, EU, EL, Simcity's, and even much more 4X games and boardgames.

Could even provide a 10 pages report. And as a planetologist, I may write something  about the (already pretty) terrains.
