Open Beta – Details and how to participate

    thx for the info :D
    Can someone help me with the time a bit because i am confused ... what time will be in Bulgaria
    3 pm CEST / GMT +2 ... its during the day or during the night ?

    thinks back to SW:tor launch and its 4 hours cues ....... -_- eng pvp for the win

    Level cap 32? So actually lower than CBT...
    ONE EN PvP server?! (I don't care, I'll play PvE anyway, but that's suprising!)


    Two chars per server is nice on the other hand, I expected just one.


    All in all, good news and thx for the info.

    If you're not paying for the product, you are the product.

    So... i bet all will say: OMG SO MUCH LAGG IN PVP SERVER, ILL PLAY IN PVE!
    and then it will no lagg :P

    What the #@$% is the problem with pet shops and boxes of mischief and why on Earth would you remove them, it can only make things worse and in no way improve anything. I have had my uses of both...guess we have to suck it up and follow everything the americans do, such a sad story for Europe...

    Is this already the Patch with the new Constitution System (yellow Bar for Dodging, etc).
    Couldn't find Info in the Patch Note, so I'm guessing it's not.
    I'm just curious.

    1 pvp server, you did the same mistake last time, let's hope the fr/ger pvp servers solve the problem...


    Would be very nice if you could publish some numbers on how many people have been playing pve and pvp servers in the cbt. If you don't want to publish exact number at least give a ratio so we know if it's actually a '"good" decision or if it's really gonna be a problem.

    All of u r wrong, there is not just 1 server En pvp.....there is just 1 server en/spa/ita/den/est/fin/ice/ire/lat/lit/nor/swe/net/gre/por/bul/cze/hun/pol/rom. Not sure about rus/bel/ukr/tur


    and lot of then cant speak english


    Italy has 60 mill (same as UK), Spain 47 mill, Poland 38 mill


    I think they shouldnt mix en people with others who cant speak english, they r anoying english but cant speak their language, and they've pay for the game the same price


    U should get checked :D


    However calm down guys it will be only 1 pvp server for obt .. at headstart they will most probably add a second one ( westonia) for eng pvp.

    Where is westonia ? :P Hope with 1 pvp server we will see more PVP's!

    next days gonna be epic for frogster ;)


    Indeed, get strong coffe, cold pizza and redbull.
    Some painkillers and ambulance outside offices is not overkill either.


    And I hope that your poor servers get hammered so much that you need at least double or triple numbers.

    seriusly only 3 eu servers? and only 1 PVP ???????

    Thanks for the info Anna, hope there are enough servers for all in OB.


    Best Regards.

    I hope this is just for OBT.

    This may actually be the time where every player BITCHING about being PKd can go try a PvE server? Only difference from PvP to PvE is that you can't pk. Duels/DM's still apply.


    Played all CBT's EU/NA and there are TONS of players on the PvP servers crying and crying about being PKd. That makes you wonder, like there are PvE servers you know? And they reply they don't want to play on a RP server. Then you facepalm and blame Blizzard for making WoW...


    No but really, to those who can't handle being PKd in the open world, go PvE. PKing is not about finding a player your level who is ready to right, and then politely ask him, lets have at it?! It's people who are in some peoples eyes "assholes" who will find that someone that is lower level, who is probably fighting a mob (BAM preferably) and who is doing so solo, while this "asshole" have his "asshole-buddies" with him. They will kill this fella, who will then go, yeah thats fine, I'll just make sure to note their names and guild and give them payback when I can - now that's PvP server.
    Same scenario but the guy killed will cry non-stop for 10 minutes in area chat - is not a PvP server-player. He is a missplaced PvE person. Of course raging is fine, that's almost the point, but don't start flaming them and call them being "noobs, retards" etc, for following the ruleset.
    Just go to that spectacular PvE server, where stuff like this won't happen - ever. Joining a PvP server you are agreeing to be in the dangerous zone of being PKd and griefed etc - but also you will have the opportunity to do the same onto them who did it to you.


    So once again, take this opportunity to try out that server where you will not be griefed and can enjoy a PvE experience with elements of PvP such as duels and deathmatch - no risking the elements some call "unfair".


    *Edit*
    I hope there will be more than 1 PvP server, if the case is that the majority or at least a high number of players are interested to play on a PvP server.


    Queues sucks, but previous experiences from large MMOs where people cried of having to queue - really only affected launch day and a following week or so. Then a lot of players who just "tried" the game quit and suddenly there were no queues and server was half dead because the people had forced the company handling the game to open up more servers. So instead of having a nice full-but-no-queues-server, we had 10 almost empty ones. This goes for not just WAR but for Aion as well.


    But I am on the same page when thinking 1 is a bit too humble.


    PEACE!
