How are you going to pick the beta testers ?

They have a list of everyone registered on these forums. This list is used to select the beta testers. If you make a post about beta testing then you are immediately removed from that list......damn.

since we started in october 2002, everybody who wanted could betatest
we did never hide anything

Betatesting might seem kindof neat, but considering you'll have to have parallel installs of the beta and previous final in case you want to get your game on with all the non-testing shmoes that can be a dealbreaker for some. It's also work. You're expected to give feedback and document problems.
If you'd like a taste of that responsibility, hey.. I'm running a beta of ut2vote44. For practice, give me some feedback on it over at the community forum.

its easy to have 2 installations
copy your deathball folder, name it deathball2 or something
put the new files in there

when you wanna play it, name the old deathball folder to something else, and name the new one to "deathball" and just start normally
i do i the same way, no trouble....
