First wave of Invites - Thursday January 22 2009

Posted by Darkfall News on January 22, 2009 20:36



This is an update about what is happening today:

We have sent out the first wave of invites to clans and individual testers. We will send more waves of invites within a few hours. Invited players will be able to download the Darkfall installer.

We are applying the latest patch, and players will be able to start patching soon, and entering the game.

We are spacing out the invites in order to facilitate the download of the client. We will continue sending out more invites every day until we reach our capacity.

Since this first phase has to do with stress testing the servers, and doing final testing on features, we are not lifting the NDA until this testing is concluded.

We apologize for the problems with the forums and the website today, we have been experiencing denial of service attacks, and we are working to resolve them.

    What a fantastic free trial.

    Oh, wait. Its just more closed beta. Nothing to see here, move along.

    Wehay!

    Great to hear! Really hope I get in, but I doubt it, sadly.

    I'm very happy to hear this, and I'm to tired to make a decant post, so I'll leave it at this.

     

    EDIT: Replying to the silly posts above me: This is only stage one of the test, so there's probably going to be more stages, and they'll probably get rid of the NDA later on (or not at all). And, keep in mind the SOFT CAP (they can handle much more, apparently, this is just a stability cap) on the servers is 10,000. So they're going to be inviting about 20,000 of their applicants.

    Basically, there's quite a large chance of getting into this. :)

    Too bad we probably will not know for sure if people got in because of the NDA. Hopefully someone leaks the email, registration and download information. :)

    Kinda does sound like a closed beta with the NDA still there.  Guess it's there till launch most likley but who knows

    I think you mean small chance of getting in. There's over 200k people waiting for invites.

    Sounds like more bullshit to me, so much for that.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Most of the fanbois retaining at least one or two brain cells, know the game is a sham and is going to tank. So now it's all about trying to keep from looking like total morons for as long as they possibly can.

    Well, atleast there's a steady flow of leaks so we'll know how things are moving on in the beta.

    if they did send an email they would send a link to the client on a site that might require a username and password to get to

    Warhammer had its own beta boards which u couldnt see unless u had a username and password or even maybe a cd key depends on how they designed it

    Yeah.. basically it's exactly what is already happening.  We had no clue how many people were in the 'beta' for the last few weeks, and now we have no idea how many people are getting in.

    And most importantly, nobody is allowed to review the game. so any leaks you get are just as likely to be trolls or fanboys just making crap up.

  • jimmyman99jimmyman99 Member UncommonPosts: 3,221

    Didn't Tasos say that starting with Jan 22 there wil be a trial?

    How does closed beta with NDA qualifies as a trial?

    Oh i get it, its closed beta trial! No1 has ever thought of THAT! eh?

    I am the type of player where I like to do everything and anything from time to time.
