Trial?

TwiztedTDTwiztedTD Member Posts: 79

 Did I read corectly that there will be a trial on January 22nd?

 

Quote:

Starting on January 22nd there will be a Darkfall trial with the distribution of the release candidate client allowing thousands of players to sample the game for free, help us stress test our servers and test the final features of the game.

So i hope they dont limit this to only a few thousand people.

    yes to stress test the servers properly and to test high end content : ).

    so theywill invite as many as possible to keep the server wiht enough for 10k people on at a time so anywhere form 20-40k alot more if they have more than one server .

     It will be a closed beta ,and the only way to get in is to pre-order ,and there is only a small chance to get in since not everyone that pre-ordered will get a key.

     I think its bull too!  I have been applied to the beta for a LOOOONG time and have not heard anything.  And even when there is an NDA things do get leaked... and nothing has been leaked!

    He isnt EXACTLY making stuff up.

    They have said that it will be limited, and that those that preorder will get first priority. They havent given any other details, so he could be right...

    I personally think the NDA will be kept in place as well...

    why dont you reread what tasos said here ill quote it for you.

    *A pre-order will be made available mid-February. The pre-orders will get priority for early access to the game. The pre-orders will also get priority for the game launch if we have to go to a staged release.

    its early excess for release not for the trial. sof or an example a 3 day head start

    we dont know how limited it iwll be tho it could be enough to fill that 1 server to stress it or it oculd be mroe than 1 server who knows but they will be inviting at least 20k but i bet more like 40-50k to give a real stress test : )

    and how does anything that you have quoted contradict what was stated? In fact it only supports it... and makes it clear that you are basing your premise on things that were NOT stated...

     Well downtoearth is a prime exemple of extreme denial,even if the sky turned red and meteors fell from the sky ... he would still claim that the weather is perfect and it's a bright and sunny day if Tasos said soo...

    I am hoping it happens. After so many delays and the tragic release of AoC, players are a bit skittish. A trial before we buy would be welcomed

    i dont know about that, but he make sence and people that are sayin that you need to preorder to get in to trial, simply or can not read or can not think ..or both.

    If preorder starts mid feb how are you going to   preorder next week  in the few days left before 22 when trial has to start?

    Limited Trial / open beat.

    So in other words, no access for you or me.

    It will be run just like closed beta. just with a different name on it.
