I kinda got the impression that after the stresstest this weekend, they will delete all applicants that didn´t participate and then send out keys to those that remains.
GBG_Angel : So everyone is allowed to play saturday-sunday and then they will send out keys?
Everyone who got a key in their email can play saturday/sunday but if they do not register and log into the game this weekend their keys will be deleted and they can't continue in the beta like the rest can.
Nice touch that they decided that the stresstesters could continue in the "normal" beta until it closes.
Noticed that as well, Took me 2-3 hours to get in there - Since i forgot my codemasters password as well.. load all those pages. Then the secret word wouldnt load up.

Took me 1 hour 15 minutes to get to the secret password and have been stuck since.
1 hour 45 minutes and still stresstesting their slow webserver
Codemasters should be ashamed..As far as i can understand everyone that has tried to participate have been sitting and waiting for Codemasters own site to load..
How are we supposed to stresstest a game if we can´t get registered to play???
Add 4-5 hours (at least) tomorrow, remember that WE ARE THE (future) PAYING CUSTOMERS!!!
After 5h+ I finaly get the game registered, now al there is, is to wait for the launcher to log me in, and that will probably take some mighty long time to
Mannaged to get as far as the login page, but thats it... been trying since around 12 today (even this morning when it said key wasnt activated yet ... )
I hope i can register before the weekend is over atleast, so i can play next week, dont care much if i can play this weekend or not.
Part of the stress test though.. even tho its sad.
Better it goes crap now than at gold.
It's not part of the stress test, the COG is already working for several games, and the people who pay for these games shouldnt be too happy if everytime a game beta test/released their account management goes to hell.... at least it doesnt gives me good feeling toward Codemaster...
Aside of their account server beeing down, their login server seemes to be in hell aswell, not to mention community pages which are down aswell haha, poor turbine
haha that's a LOTRO stress test subscription for me...
here was an error when retrieving your subscriptions. Support staff have been notified
open N/A No payment required
lovely, Turbine failed, i haven't suspected such problems from a company that have realeased mmorpgs before and should have been prepared for that.
Turbine fails, will LOTR fail cause of it aswell?
Aside of their account server beeing down, their login server seemes to be in hell aswell
At last, someone with the same error i got lol.... Turbine isnt at fault for this one tho, the COG is completely Codemasters's fault, even if Turbine is at fault for the login server being down every few minutes from what i read
EU LOTRO Beta is NOT open at this time. The Stress test is also NOT an open stress test. It is by limited invite only from Codemasters and is fully under NDA. No information has been mentioned in my knowledge about any "Open" phase of beta at this time. This stress test is limited invite and NDA closed beta still.

Trying to log into the game and it says: No username called ******* is activated...
Guess all lag at Codemasters is disturbing that part too..
1st. I get to logon in the Luncher, but get error "Can only start game through Launcher"
2nd. I get, "No LOTRO Beta Subscription on this username"
3rd. Now i cant even connect to the login server, " Retry 1,2,3,4,5 Cannot Connect
Better it goes crap now than at gold.
Hope they sort it out soon.
Sad that i cant play a elf and kick a dwarfs butt though...

That companies never learn from each other. I'Ve tested more games that had exact problems at stresstest or even first day at going gold.
But guess its money involved and so on ... Wont go into it.. hehe
Now slap the donkey and let us in!
