Eh, still might. :P

They flag your account to let you in. So... whether you're in or not (able to or unable to download) is entirely dependent upon your account.

Yeah, I'm not sure what went on. :P

All I hope is that it starts before the 9th... (School....)

That isn't what he said at all...

Highboy has confirmed tech testers will stay in Beta.

This is just an FYI. If you're unhappy with this, we're already aware! No need to elaborate.

If beta's not in over a week, logically it's impossible to be this week.

He said it on Friday. That means it COULD be Saturday so technically you're right. I don't see it happening though.

SOE is pretty awful at maintaining a time frame. So my guess is the beta is at least ten days away.

I wouldn't be surprised if we hear something when they reveal the trailer on Wednesday.

Well the good news is I will be a corporal rank soon enough on PSU from spending all my waking moments on PSU when I am not asleep. And yes I read and post from work as well! I figure on the 25th if they say within the next week or soon, I will mark that up to at least another few weeks of me torturing myself.

Reposting this from my other sticky thread so you guys can stop wondering.

Also here is the current status on beta / technical test.

We think we have all we need for tech test so it's likely no more tech test invites. But beta is little more than a week away hopefully

https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/226689514888904704

Again no promises. We could always decide we want more tech test people and we could always take longer. Don't mean to be vague

It is still possible we may invite more to the euro tech test though. We'll see

This was updated late last week.

"Hopefully"..., "No promises" "possible.., more tech test...We'll see", these aren't too defining. The 'gist' of it I get but lol, pretty cloudy water still

I think that's the point unfortunately. The more vague they are the harder it is to hold them to something. I'm not bitter or anything, in fact, its a smart move on their part.
