DMS is offering a cool option to our fans that can no longer wait for our next games or want to be a part of game development by contributing their opinion on a very early stage.

For a very limited time, users can buy an exclusive tester membership at DMS that allows you to test games for a couple of months or up to a year. This membership provides you access to internal tester forums and gives you the opportunity to speak directly to the developer team as well.

It's guaranteed that a minimum of 1 project is open for testing, for instance in multiplayer, or limited access to singleplayer. Including minimum monthly updates or more!


How does it work?
  • Go to our subscription page
  • choose the months you wish to subscribe
  • Enter your payment details at paypal and at the end of the process fill out the text field "Enter your DMS forums account here" with your forums nickname
  • Wait for DMS contacting you, may take up to 48 hours
  • Check the internal forums for further information and downloads!

What do I get?
  • Exclusive game preview versions of DMS games
  • More content than in regular betas or demos
  • Unlimited game time
  • Direct contact to developers to share your opinion and to give feedback
  • Be the first to see new games
  • Receive free bonus content for the games you are testing!
14 days money back guarantee!


The first exclusive testing starts next week and is a must have for all MoW fans who want to influence the upcoming expansion, so hurry up!


Note - You aren't getting charged for regular demos or betas, this is an extra service not influencing non-subscribers!

It's a general package, it's well possible that testers will get the opportunity to test other unannounced games as well, at a later stage. (especially with the gold package)

It sounds a great idea, and a great way to get the community involved. But as DMS isn't exactly a major developer so to speak I am unsure if it is value for money. What are the differences between silver and gold? Aside from price and length?

6 months may not be enough to test various of games, we have around a cycle of 6 to 12 months between projects, that means a gold account will save you money and allow you to test surely more than 1 game you are interested in for 2 € a month.

Bought a years subscription. Is there already a beta going on at the moment? And will I get confirmation via PM or via email?

Haha, nice trick:
1. you never know if there`s gonna be game to test
2. not full access

Have you ever consider doing it other way - paying money to players who can test it and find many bugs?

thats a beuty instead of getting people to test betas for free which is a HUGE service to the developers as it gets theyre program tested on a huge amount of system set ups without the outlay of building all those system configurations themselves, MAKE THE END USER PAY!!! :evil: and dress it up as a service that you should pay for, nice one DMS this scam/idea makes me sick as it is nothing but money grabbing profiteering!!!

Really, i know you guys have to make a living aswell, but this is making it way too obvious. And really, i hardly think there are that many diehard fans of the game to make profit in any way significant. And there is not a single warrant you will make new games other than your word.
