It's a very likely explanation, considering the lengths North American publisher G4BOX has gone to in promoting Cross Fire.
Earlier, G4BOX was giving potential players a chance to sign up for beta even after it was closed to the public. Now they're adding a feature that would allow registered players to invite their friends into the exclusive (or not so) beta.
It's a rather strange move considering how much trouble people usually having accessing closed beta for the majority of games out there. Now, not only will Cross Fire players be able to invite a friend, G4BOX is giving them a chance to invite 10 friends.
The invitations will be sent out via email, which is then used to register a Cross Fire account on the official website.
"A game like Cross Fire is an experience players will want to enjoy with their friends," said Howard He, CEO and Co-founder of G4BOX. "Cross Fire's addictive, high intensity fire-fights have been a hit with first-person shooter fans and now they can quickly and easily get their friends in on the action too."
