Giving away an extra CBT1 key

KefoKefo Member EpicPosts: 4,229
Alright so I snagged a key off of this site and the next day received an email invite with another closed beta key so might as well "return" one eh? :)

In order to get this key I want you to tell me what has you most excited about this game and why.

The rules

1. Length of answer will not affect my decision but please be clear and concise in your answer. Grammar is a non-issue :)
2. 1 word answers will be ignored.
3. No multiple posting. I will either only read your first post and ignore all others or just not consider you.
4. Need to be have at least 50 posts to enter. I will be checking your post history to make sure you didn't just spam thread(s) with garbage or nonsense to raise it.
5. Don't like rule number 4? Tough! Go buy a key and get out of my thread lol.

Cutoff time will be 8pm EST. I would like to say I will choose a winner shortly thereafter but that's usually the time my son goes to bed (if I'm lucky) so be patient. I will post the winner here and PM them(or they can PM me since I might post the winner then put my son to bed lol) to give them their key.

Good luck and happy posting!

    So I play a lot of Beta's and this game is defitnly interesting. id like it merlely to see how the combat is with real ui showing.

    The character customization is ludicrously in-depth. The game is gorgeous and as I am a graphics whore I would love to stare at this game for hours. The combat looks fun, it seems to strike a nice balance between newer action mmos and classic tab targeting mmos (Reminds me of Dungeons & Dragons Online). From what I have seen the class leveling and skill leveling seems to be pretty flexible, which will help to keep from getting bored of so many cookie-cutter classes. I honestly don't know much about the story or the world lore, but I love exploration and I am totally willing to traverse every mountain and cross every body of water to find good story.

    Sorry I think I have less than 5 posts because I forgot the email to my old account, but I will write this anyway and leave it in your hands to judge. Hopefully you can understand, or else that's tough luck for me :(

    I've been lurking this website for years in search of a decent mmorpg that can hold my interest like the older games did. At this point I'm so bored with every game that I'm trying any new game just to see the different gameplay elements and give it a chance, and even play it based on superficial aspects like graphics. I'd say Black Desert is one of those I'm trying purely off graphics, it's a beautiful game and looks like it has some interesting sandbox mechanics which I'm very fond of as I dislike the themepark route this genre has taken.

    So this is my sincere plea to you, without having enough posts :P I am simply extremely bored and I'm too poor to afford a founders pack right now so I'd very much appreciate a chance to try a new game, if even just to allow me to take this game off my radar if I don't like it, I am really sick of waiting for games for months only to find out they are a complete let down, if anything I just want to try it for that reason alone, just to give me some perspective. ;)

    Either way thanks a lot for reading and congratulations to whoever does win!

    This my be my only chance to have a game that i want to play in 2016, Black Desert Online. At this moment i am not able to invest in an account, this is a good chance to do it. I am following the game for few months, watching movies and guides and i am still counting the date when i will join the game...

    and counting...and counting...

    I will be honored to win.

    Thanks

    He couched the language/"contest" in a similar style to what MMORPG.com has done. They have often given away stuff by asking the forum members to do the exact same thing.

    The 50 posts thing is probably to stave off people who just scour the forums for keys. Probably to sell on e-bay.

    To that point, if you buy a key on e-bay aren't you just enabling people who "come to forums to take keys form the forum community so they can profit off them"? I think people who get and sell those are far bigger "dicks" as they are profiting off something that was not meant for them to profit from.

    I'm a big fan of Taming (Ultima Online), of pvp (nearly any game out there to date), of hauling trade goods (euro truck simulator, archeage, etc).. and there's quite a lot of other things BDO seems to check off. Sadly for me I found out about BDO only recently because evidently I live under a rock in my old age.

    I'd definitely enjoy having a chance to get to know the game before release date happens.

    My first MMORPG was EQ and I really miss MMOs like that... From what I hear Black Desert is the closest thing to that.. I am bored of themepark MMORPGs and I just want a fun sandbox MMORPG to play... I just really want to see if thats Black Desert is that game... Thank you for your time..
  • DaxamarDaxamar Member UncommonPosts: 593
    I big into MMOs, bot eastern and western. Dont matter to me. I like MMOs for the simple fact you play with others. I enjoy playing MMOs for the magic part of the game. I love the fact you can shoot fireblass, and chain lightning. As you might be able to tell, ill be playing a Wizard. Thats is if you kindly let me have a key. Also, been a member of these forums for 10 years. :)

    This is my first post but I have lurked for 7 years. I generally dont ask for keys but may this be the first :dizzy: 
    I have been following this game for quit awhile and what initially drew me into the game was the pvp I rather like idea of not using hotkeys to do moves. That and the soft target system help say yes even more. I also enjoy the game will be going to buy to play hopefully this may stop bots. I also feel sad about the karma system but seeing the updated system from Korea gives my alot of hope for this games survival. I am an bandit style player I like guild wars but i enjoy thievery more. That first video where they showed alot of the world there was small clip of someone or player or npc stealing money pouch from another only strengthened my want to play. I just hope they change the karma a lot sooner than later.

    I want to explore the game world.
  • akumahisaiakumahisai Member UncommonPosts: 34
    Well I do not have 50 posts but I am an avid player that has tried almost all MMORPGS out there in one form or another. I've been yearning for all these years for a way to recapture the magic of beginning anew  in a strange, fascinating world, to relive the moments of joy that stem from visiting a brand new city, from slaying the nastiest of monsters. I want to feel the rush of running through wild lands where everything wants to kill you, I want to discover hidden coves of wonders, watch the sunset from atop a glorious mount while looking at the sea.
    I feel BDO is the only game that will allow me to recapture the pure, virgin joy of those fleeting moments :)
    Thanks for this contest :)

    8pm. No more entries and will be reading everything to find the winner :)
  • KefoKefo Member EpicPosts: 4,229
    I've debated and have decided to give the key to @Gahnzo.

    I would like to say that I enjoyed many of the responses but I did need to stick to my own rules as its only fair. If I find anymore keys for the next beta I'll make sure to do a similar contest so get those post counts up :)

    Grats to Ganzo! Good contest!

  • ManakarManakar Member UncommonPosts: 110
    I think the OP is kinda cruddy.. I was the only one that asked for a key on these forums and if I had a extra key and only one person asked for one I would give it to that person.. Not make a post trying to make people jump through my hoops and randomly pick someone that I thought jumped through the hoops the best..

    If you look through this thread you would see multiple people asking for the key I had, including yourself. Good to know you are such a sore loser so that if I ever give something away again I can just cross your name off the list immediately.

    This thread? You mean the thread you made way after the thread I made asking for a key?

    Yup cause I didn't care about your thread. I made a new thread so the title would reflect the content and anyone browsing would know exactly what was being offered.

    Removed multiple off-topic posts on government/political topics that aren't relevant here. And since the giveaway is done and the last few posts seem to be attacks on the OP/thread, going ahead and closing this.
