I just received some confirmation from SmokeJumper that open beta HAS NOT started. They have simply started collecting the info they need for when they are ready to go into open beta.

Also, the NDA is still in full effect. When it is lifted, we will hear it from SOE. My bet is probably via a press release.

Again, I got this confirmation from Dave Georgeson. I just wanted to clear up all the rumors floating around here as of late!

Do you still have to be 18+ to be in open beta when it comes? Or does that just apply to exclusive beta? Thanks in advance.

You had to be 18 to signup to begin with, same applys for open I'm sure ;)

well i wouldn't think open beta wouldn't start because people just got their email and it will take time to send those discks out

Well, Obviously one has to be right..And i guess it would be the 'offical' news Submitted on the Official Forum? We all have a chance to get in so..Wait a bit. Patience is a virtue

Dont yall get it, yall been sent open beta emails. They are getting yall set for open beta. Open beta doesn't start till that very first open beta dude gets his disk and d/l planetside to his computer. And tha'll take atleast a week or more for it to arrive.

As for all this commotion......I haven't got no emails yet......I'm hoping they're lookin at my aplication....:(

My question is when are they going to ship the cds off to everyone.. i know they will come eventually but i was kind of wanting an idea of when we might expect them.

I used to have access to the beta site...now I do not.

Has this happened to anyone else who entered in their address information for open beta? I hope it's happening to other people, or this might mean I'm not in going to be in beta anymore :(

SmokeJumper posted on official board that it was a bug that let people access the beta boards. (only exclussive beta people were suppose to access it, not open beta people until open beta starts)

DarkDragon

Thanks Arthell. I see a news post was made about the issue too :)

At least I read a lot on the beta board before they kicked out us stress testers... and I got a post in before the doors closed. =)

My best guess as to what they are doing is that they've sent out beta e-mail to comfirm address to send CDs to, after they get a good number of people to comfirm addresses they might send out CDs and start beta around the time those CD arrive. Of course i could be completely wrong and open beta might not start until october :p

Well we all know about how long it takes for mail to go from here to there. but I would want to know wheres here? Where is everythin being shiped from?

I'm kinda unclear... has Open Beta started yet?

:p

**edit: Oh, as for the CD you should recieve it in about two weeks if you were lucky enough to get an e-mail and confirmed your mailing address via the link on the e-mail. You should/will recieve the CD before Open Beta starts, so you'll probably have it installed on your computer before you'll be able to play... Or so goes the story.

OH man, im starting to think i mistyped my e-mail address, or, accidentally deleted the e-mail! :eek: :scared: :tear:

Man I wonder if its too late to re-apply. Probably a bad idea, get me nuked from the whole thing

You see this is what sucks, your all rared up ready to go you get accepted and your hopping around and shouting like a little girl (if noone else did that neither did I then) and then you here its closed, when I first heard this I punched my wall like a little girl and then cried in pain like a little girl..... maybe.....
