Awesome. Can’t wait.
-
So excited. She does the client download come available. The day of launch?
-
I can only hope that I won't be pestered with my work, starting February 4!
-
It will be nice to see how much the game has grown
-
That's good news, thanks for giving us a little taste of the game again
-
Great news! I've got some people excited to get in
-
I am very curious, how the test will run.
Cross my fingers for you guys, that this Stresstest will run way better than the last one.
You derve it
-
I am hoping I will be able to test this one.

I'm curious, is there a reason why you decided to host the open test now, instead of waiting till more of the announced test 2 features are implemented (e.g. after the Alpha 2 test)?
Specifically party and land management would seem to have been features that would have served very well for a public facing test.Most of the other features are being developed in parallel and will be ready right before the start of A2-T2. Doing the Open Playtest after the launch of A2-T2 would have meant running it around mid-March. We wanted to drop the playtest ASAP to compensate for the previous one

The day before you get access (later today if you're a backer, Wednesday if you're not)
-
@Prometheus Later today!! That sounds awesome.

I understand the development process (in a general context, not this specific one ) and I can feel your urge to try and make up for the 'possibly bad perception' some people might have had with the previous stress test. I still think that, since it's already been more than a month, the impact of an additional month wouldn't have tilted much of the perception or attention in a negative way, but the added functionality might have had a significantly positive impact on first impression. But you're the boss!
So, I wish you simply the best with the test and it's results (and am going to enjoy it myself).
-
That sounds like fun looking again forward to it

How do I get the software? I don't see it available yet, under Play.

OK but he said that 24 hours ago or more. It is definitely the next day now, no matter where you live.
