I have my towel. I have my collectors edition pre-order I do not yet have an email from mythic even though my beta center says Im signed up for the collectors edition preorder. I am starting to panic...
Its one thing to say they are busy and have lots of the things to send, its another when you see 12 pages of people who already have their letter and are downloading the client. Who do I email or call to get my letter post haste? Do I have to call gamestop EB? Email Mythic? Because I'm freaking the frag out here?
Didn't 60,000 copies of the CE sell? They aren't going to throw that many people at the download at once, it would grind to a halt.
wow im lucky to get above 1kb/s. If it does it sits around 1.5kb/s why the hell couldn't mythic just have had a download server this bit torrent is pointless. It doesn't even give me a ETA.
Hold on Snow Leopard, imma let you finish, but Windows had one of the best operating systems of all time.
If the Powerball lottery was like Lotro, nobody would win for 2 years, and then everyone in Nebraska would win on the same day. And then Nebraska would get nerfed.-pinkwood lotro fourms
AMD 4800 2.4ghz-3GB RAM 533mhz-EVGA 9500GT 512mb-320gb HD
Well there's talk about the server beeing down anyway... and at least we'll get 3-4 days of CB and then they go down again and make us download the OB client
Maybe i should just get my hellgate disks from the shelf ^^
Lots of people panicking. I ordered the CE, I've been signed up for closed beta forever, I don't have my invite but really does it matter? If they're sending out the CE invites, they'll most likely get to all of us in a week or two. Stressing about it won't speed it up and talking about contacting Mythic about it? Get real, they have real things to worry about.
3) It'll prompt you to download individual files from the torrent, download all the warpatch or "patch" related files- you can't miss them. They're fairly small.
4) Download these to a folder then run Warpatch.exe and you will be good to go providing you have made sure your beta account exists.
So yeah my download speed still sucks I can't break double digits unless theres a period between the numbers.

Like I said, I didn't get an email. I did log into my account over at the EAMythic betacenter page, however, and my account was already listed as accepted into the beta with a nice link to click on explaining how to set everything up. Not sure if the info there was old and Yahoo shafted me by not giving me the email, or if they just recently upgraded my account (it had to have happened in the last 2 weeks, so I'm guessing this is my CE upgrade). At any rate, it's worth a try if you pre-ordered the CE.

That very reassuring, but I'd still like to make sure they know where to mail me, just in case.
And glad to see you got in!

WoW whole lot of people already breaking the NDA. Looks like it will be 59,990 CE invites lol.
From Mythic -
"The only permitted disclosures at this time are:
1) The fact that there is a Warhammer Online Beta Test currently underway.
2) The fact that you are a member of the Warhammer Online Beta Test."
No NDA breaches here.
There is a post about the patcher back a page or 2. Talking about the game, patcher, file size, files, download time, download speed, gameplay, color of the icon, patching method etc is all breach of NDA. Basically anything that can give an impression about the game or how its run by the company.
People talking about download methods are in breach. Personaly I don't care and for the most part mythic probably doesn't either. I do fear for any game you sign an NDA for though because there are many posts that cross the NDA here.
That was odd, I was at 15 percent done on a torrent, then I got FlashGet and I was instantly done. I thought it was a mistake, but, I opened up the setup and now its patching. I hope Im not not in for terrible surprise. The patch is 8,477 MBs and it is going pretty quick, about a MB every 5 seconds. Anyone else have this happen?

well, since we currently aren't allowed acess to the beta forums, most of us dont know what to do, so we are just trying to get help through people we know.

Still does not justify the breaking of NDA. Especially the poster who disclosed the alternative downloading method.

I've emailed them about that already. Still isn't fixed.

People aren't stressing about it, they are excited and hyped up. WAR just so happens to be an extremely highly hyped game after all...
Only one person has actually mentioned contacting Mythic about getting into the beta.
I've been contacting Mythic because they have the wrong mailing address, and they haven't changed it yet for some reason...

Well that's weird, my e-mail says something about Closed Beta, but I just got it today.

well 5 mins left for me to finish. wohoo! I'll boost my uploa to max after.
I hope they don;t use this crappy torrent system for head start cos that would be lame.
