Anthem™ Closed Alpha informationhelp.ea.com/en/help/anthem/anthem/anthem-closed-alpha-info/Thursday, 29 November 2018 Find out what you need to know about the Anthem™ Closed Alpha and how to join EA’s Community Playtesting program. What’s a Closed Alpha?It’s an opportunity for you to check out Anthem but we’ll also be adjusting things like matchmaking and server load on the fly. These Community Playtests are more limited than what we want to share in the pre-launch demos. All of these factors combined mean that we’re making access to our Playtests limited, which is where the “closed” part of the name comes from. When is it?The Anthem Closed Alpha is available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It runs from December 8-9, 2018. There are multiple sessions across the two days, you can play in one or in all of them, but you can only sign up to play on one device (PC, PlayStation 4 or Xbox One). How do I register and sign up for the Closed Alpha? This Community Playtest is organized by the EA Community Playtesting team. Places are limited, and sign ups close end of day December 3, 2018. Here’s how to sign up: Head to the EA Community Playtesting site. Sign in with your EA Account. Choose your platform, and let us know when you want to play. Once your choices are completed, click Submit. Signing up does not guarantee you’ll be invited to take part, it’s on a first come first served basis. If you’re in, you’ll see a confirmation on the Community Playtesting site and you’ll get an email from us letting you know how to download the Anthem Closed Alpha game client. If you have any questions about how Community Playtesting works, check out the Community Playtesting FAQ. [HASH]ANT

Was in the middle of signing up when their servers crashed. Guess a lot of people wants to participate...

Seems to be making incremental progress …
Each step along the way, many, many fails …
Then will complete a step and go to the next page …
To experience many, many fails …
Repeat ad nauseum.
Edit add: once you get to the platform selection page, you've made it through the bottleneck and things seem to work fine after that.
Getting through the initial bottleneck is the challenge.

PC people, start clicking! I was able to get through after about 3 hours of intermittent reloading. Before that I got to the agreement page at least 7 times only to have it fail. Don't give up! Here's hoping they're looking for that all-important "middle aged woman with terrible fast twitch skills" demographic. The good thing about us is that we have enough disposable income to buy the game for friends and get them hooked, we play well with others and we have strong brand loyalty.

Well I've gotten as far as being able to pick what times I want to play then the dammed thing just keeps locking up. On the plus side the play times are at a reasonable hour local time so I can actually play

Oh, the weight of expectation... I wonder what the acceptance rate of this deluge will be? <5% ? If I get to play, cool. If not I'm not going to burst into a ball of flame over it. Assuming I do get to play the alpha I'll have a way better idea if it's a game I want to spend money on because as it stands I'm not buying it.

Maybe they'll open up additional spots.
At least they can be pleased that there's massive interest, but they must be a bit bummed about the technical problems today.
