We are NOT in Open Beta yet.
We will not be in Open Beta for a couple weeks yet.
Acceptance emails into Open Beta were sent to confirm shipping addresses so that we don't have to waste money sending bogus CDs to fake addresses.
The NDA has NOT been lifted. This is still a "black box" and there is NO slack in our enforcement of the NDA at this time.
Those that got an "Open Beta" acceptance email are not yet in the beta.
CDs will be sent internationally. We're accepting people from Canada and Europe for the Open Beta.
The CD's will be sent to you before the beta begins, with such a schedule that you should comfortably receive the disks before the test starts.
They have/are fixing a clerical error that allows those accepted into the Open Beta to access the Exclusive Beta forums.
Open Beta folks will have access to those forums once Open Beta officially begins.
Beta is free
CDs will be sent internationally. We're accepting people from Canada and Europe for the Open Beta.
We are no longer accepting people into Exclusive Beta. We have 11,000 people in Exclusive Beta now. No additional influxes will occur until Open Beta begins.
Beta will cease a couple weeks before the game hits the shelves.
The retail copy will be different than the beta copy and the two will not be compatible with each other.
Therefore you will have to purchase the game if you wish to continue to play after Beta.

They have not finished sending all emails for Open Beta acceptance.

If you have not received an email yet...then you have not been accepted...yet.
We haven't finished sending emails. We have another 4000 or so to send later.
