You can definitely run it, if anything people with good pc's stand less of a chance as they have tested it plenty with them.

I got the confirmation email but I don't remember sigining up for the NDA. At what point do we have to agree to that? All I did was run that program and hit send. I hope I didn't skip a step accidentally...

You only have to sign the NDA if you get into the beta.

Ok I guess I'll just have to wait and hope. When does this beta start? Have people already gotten in yet?

You can't legally say if you're in the beta in public but no-one I've asked has said they are.

Nobody knows when the beta starts but as the press get two weeks prior notice I'm guessing the 9th-11th of march.

If you can't legally say you're in the beta, and only those who are in it have to sign the agreement, why not say "I'm not allowed to say." implying that you agreed to something that prevented you from saying it, which could only be the NDA.

You didn't state anything, the other person just came to a conclusion of their own accord.

That's totally allowed, however I've not seen anyone say it

You applied avatar?

Beta closes at 6pm GMT on the 24th of feb! (that's today!) so hurry up if you haven't already applied.

TBH, as long as you aren't spreading it to media outlets, the NDA isn't a problem.

When I was in the BF3 Alpha Test I was spreading information on here the whole time I was playing in it.

You can talk about it in safety here, they just don't want you to leak a whole bunch of information to a media outlet who will spread it further.

I wouldn't talk about it detail on here, in private conversations it's game though.

Yeh, I've signed NDAs before and have yet to break one.

I wonder how much of the information they collect from you is used to determine if you get in the beta, if it is used at all.

If Signup closes today, when does the actual Beta start?

Noone knows except the devs.

Yeah only the devs know really, we can make an informed guess and say it's in two weeks time though.

Perfect. Mock exams are over.

Unfortunately it looks like release will be in june-july, exam finals for me.

Same here. And with Asian parents, I may have to wait till the holidays till I can get my copy. Hope they let me get the collector's ed early at least.

Yep

I can't read

Your continued use of a forum thus baffles me.



I want this game now.

I don't even play warhammer really

Neither do I, anymore.

Why are we here?

Because we have nothing better to do?

Holy gak, there were 1 million beta applications

Wonder how many will be accepted lol

As long as I'm in it.

To do some quick mathhammer lets assume they want around 30,000 people to test per beta weekend as this seems like a good number, this gives everyone who applied around a 3% chance to get in give or take 2% depending on if their rig is high priority or not. There will be multiple beta weekends (I'm guessing 3) so that gives most people a 3% to 15% chance of getting in depending on if your rig is one they haven't tested much.

That's the chance of getting into any beta weekend, getting into all of them is far less likely.

Hopefully we'll see soon enough anyway.

Yeah hopefully we'll find out next week, they never do anything on weekends.

EDIT: I found a decent video on how crafting works, this only shows crafting heavy armour and melee weapons but it gives you the jist even if the idiot filming doesn't even experiment a tiny bit. Seriously you can get some MUCH better gear by just playing around with the recipes and upgrades rather than just following default recipes, makes me want to punch the damn screen even more than the sods who don't dodge

EDIT:EDIT: youtube tags don't want to work, just linked it instead.

I don't think anything can make me want to punch the screen more than that Guardian in the catacombs who had never heard of weapon swapping, using virtues, dodging or reviving. He didn't even wield a ranged weapon for a ranged battle until after the battle. -.-

He also used the word 'tank' a lot.

*clicks skill 1 over and over before clicking 2 or 3 as soon as they go off cooldown, ignores class abilities and never dodges*
