Hawaii Closed Beta Test Compensation?

Has anyone who participated in the closed Hawaii Beta Testing received ANY info from Papyrus on how we're to get our compensation? All I've gotten is the complete runaround. Anyone from Papy reading this that could give me an email address of who I (and others) need to talk to? Thanks, Chris Patrick

I never received anything. We were told that when Hawaii went pay for play, we'd get 1 hour free for every hour we did on the closed beta. Of course, Hawaii never went pay for play.

Alot of things changed since we did the closed testing. At that time, Papyrus was planning to run it on their own. There was no TEN/Internet or Nascar involved. I don't think TEN and Nascar care about some aggreement of free play that Papyrus made to their closed testers. I'm sure all of the closed testers would like some kind of compensation but I feel like a internet network over the LD charges to Boston are good enough for me. I know this is probably not what you want to hear but I would just go on. There are just to many other factors now for things to be the same. Brian

If I remember correctly, the deal was $10 credit for every hour online once the final version came online. Whether it is called Hawaii or NROS doesn't matter to me, it was still developed by Papyrus and we helped to test it and should be compensated per our agreement. Whether TEN is involved or not is inconsequential, Papyrus should have made our compensation part of the deal. I figure that I'm owed about $480 in credit for my participation and it makes me a little ticked that they would promise us some payback for helping them worm the bugs out of the system, and then give us the big ol' shaft. Anybody from Papy reading this want to give us a reasonable explanation about why we've been ignored? Chris Patrick

Alot of things changed Chris as I said before. For one, my days on Hawaii were much enjoyed and was glad I got to help in the contruction of an online racing network. Alot of other people wanted in too. Part of our payback could of been that they never charged for us to race there even after it went into "Open" I know this is "still" not the answer you are looking for but the people that headed up the testing and made the deals are not even with Papyrus anymore. I know it ticks you off but I would save your energy on this one......I have. Brian Tate
