    Default I think I found a beta testing sight.

    OK, first of all I didn't see anything on beta's with the existing threads, especially one that might be a scam. Basically earlier this evening I was looking for some info about beta testing and I came to this video. I went to the link it gave and it gave me what I think is a dummy sight.
    When I clicked on the download it made me take a survey, which I declined as to avoid viruses.
    In the video it also said that there was only 300 copies and now it is up to 1000. It might be different if you check it. I assume that the number will continue to increase as more people download it.
    I just want to know if someone else has heard about it and maybe it will keep somebody from downloading it in the future, if it's a scam.

    Thank you for your time,
    Breenma

    Yep, that's very obviously a scam. I reported it

    It has to be fake the Dev team has already confirmed there will be no open beta.

    I must have missed it but couldn't find any info about open beta or anything. I was actually hoping something like FOTS even if it's for MP balancing only.

    Obvious fake, but I wonder how they got so many people to comment on it with different messages? Pretty convincing bots I guess.

    Remember, if the devs didn't confirm a beta, why would they be giving away beta key from a sketchy homemade website?

    Duplicate accounts. People like these are all over the internet.

    To OP, any videos you find from anyone outside of CA, is fake, and if there is a beta, CA will be the first one to notice everyone, not some random dude on YouTube.

    At 0:58 in the youtube video it says the installer is made by Toshiba
    Besides, the installer is 2.81 Mb. Really?
    And to top it all, the window that asks you whether you have DirectX has this written under Rome II - "I'll be back".

    I did my part but how about you. Only you can prevent fake beta testing sites.
