Alt1USA has announced that the open beta for Troy Online is scheduled to begin today, Thursday, August 11th. The dev team plans to run several events for players and will implement updates throughout the open beta in response to player feedback. To assist with lag issues in the EU, a new European server will be in place prior to the open beta's start.
ALT1 Games has plans to release new updates during the open beta test, as well as run a number of events including beta key giveaways for new and current users. For the open beta test, ALT1 Games has changed the game engine to enhance the quality of game graphics and improve game. If you participated in the previous test, you can check how much the graphics have changed.
Sign up for beta testing on the Troy Online site.

Maybe I'm wrong ....
but their site says the 12th for beta :P
The EU open beta starts on the 12th. NA starts today.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ok.
The only reason I said anything is because :
On MMORPG main page ,you guys list under the contests header , the beta starting the 12th.
The countdwn clock on Troy Site says 27 hours.
This from their site .

So maybe you can see my confusion.
Anyways ...
Open beta is tomorrow at 11am PST.
QFT
The countdown to beta clock on their website suggests tommorow @ 11am PST is the start for open beta.
The US Server is still under maintenance. Just might be tomorrow.
Fixes & Suggestions List - game is horrible
1. To Be able to link gear into chat to compare (sell etc?)
2. Chat filter - i like to curse.. sorry im vulgar dont stop me, but let others not listen if they want.
3. Be able to chat while fighting easier. i see we have to hit enter a SECOND time after typing something to continue on.
4. Party - Visuals - When in party it would be nice if our members names are a different color than everyone elses such as light blue or something we get to pick ourselves.
4.2. - Party 2nd part - members out of range problem - id like to still be able to see their hp/mp incase they are in-danger and need my assistance. also their dots disappear on the map within the same range limitations... this makes it quite annoying to find your friends.
4.3 - party 3rd part - Being able to add members via a box we can type in instead of having to physically see them.
5. Option to change chats font color & size (SIZE) a definite MUST. im playing on a 52 inch HD tv and can still barely see it.
6. Typos: the king refers to women as "young men" and there are countless typos in the quests such as 's = _s etc.
7. Mystics look like warriors.. -_- (maybe this is just because of the beginning gear of the game.. but... yeah
8. Guild -
- Allow alphabetizing
- Allow sorting by level & rank.. i do like that offline people are displayed @ the end of the list however.
9. A teleport home macro for all (unless i missed it somewhere) its a pain to run everywhere even with auto runs niftyness numberlock key.
10... can i jump plzz
11. changeable controls
12. Pvp -
12.1 - Gear gets destroyed too fast/easily maybe scale back a little or remove gear destruction in pvp?
12.2 - to come ~ i hear ppl saying the pvp is "messy" but i think its just the people themselves, they all run around w/o any combat strategy or pairing with other classes to keep themselves alive longer.
13. We need a black list for chat and the possiblity not to see a channels speech like trade. (ability to block out seeing certain chat when in the main chat)
14. Amazon - In amazon you cannot see where your character is on the map ~ you have to guess
Other than these, which im 100% sure theres more since im only lvl 14. being a developer myself i can understand the frustration of getting every little detail down but thats what beta is for, so ppl plz dont flame just accept thats what phase this fine company seems to be in and help them see the light. Add your comments below & i hope this thread gets some clout and doesnt just get hidden among all the other ragequitters/hormonal teens and unhappy vocal people out there who dont give second chances. see you inrealm and go troy!

my above post is an overlooked post in general sections of forums on troy - while other threads like "my game lags" gets responses by gm's of "turn ur gfx" down... plz... open beta isnt ready plz put it back in closed beta or work on these things... i saw the playerbase go from a HUGE turnover to where all the wars i joined did not have enough players and ended prematurely by default because everyones logging out... i would love to see this game prosper its got one hell of a pvp idea and good graphics for a f2p... but this just wont work in the year 2011 maybe back in 02 or 03...
