    Me neither. I guess multiple waves of testers rather than one huge mass gaining access at the same time makes sense, but still... :(

    Also,
    ...what are you getting at?

    There are typically 2 ways to release MMOs or online games, midnight/early day or 3PM "after school", the latter is to try to not let cool people get ahead of babbyshits who have to school

    Stay tuned for the announcement of the Closed Beta launch which will occur later today. If you’d like to learn more, please take a look at the beta FAQ.

    Dont think its actually out yet still, more waiting.

    Its better for us if they let the people access the game in an evenly raising flow, no server crash guys.
    I think they did mention this method somewhere.
    But as always the impatient fans overlooked that. :rollseyes:

    Yes, testing loads as you go is important. I believe the problem was that they weren't expecting such a large following and they hit over 10,000 people who signed up, so they need to make sure that their servers can handle those loads, instead of letting everyone in and it crashing then we have to wait for them to get better hardware it's probably indeed hella better for it to work like this where they let in say 500 people, test loads, is it good? Wait a day or two of that, checking all statistics making sure it's well under load, let in the predicted amount of people (say they were at 1/4 load, let in 500 more see how it rolls out), and keep going up like that to make sure that they stay stable while going. I signed up pretty early though, so kinda mad that they're doing this 'random' method of choosing people as opposed to by the time they signed up.

    Yes, that is how they are doing it, entirely random, it says so on their site somewhere.

    Meh, its not as good as I thought. You cant actually build and stuff while in a game only in editor mode then host it as a deathmatch style game.

    Its still kindve decent though.

    Dude, be patient. They're probably handling this personally, which would make it a long and painful process.
    Give them time. ;)

    Yeah, I got a beta key. It's not good at all. Maybe I'm just burned out on the whole voxel thing, maybe I'm burnt out on the whole FPS genre, but I found games to be really clunky, really terrible in terms of connectivity to servers, like Overlord said there's very little in terms of building (joined a few building servers and it said I didn't have permission because the owner left), and the game I joined ended in about 10 seconds, 5 of which were spent waiting for the server to connect everyone.

    I give it a thumbs down. Would much rather play something else.

    It is also pay to win YOU RENT WEAPONS FOR A SET AMOUNT OF TIME! The gameplay is also bad.

    Yeah, I didn't bother to figure out what it meant, but for in game "points" you can rent weapons for periods of time like 7 days, 14 days, etc. After which you're stuck with default weapons. Lame.
