Are the folks being invited right now the pre-orders? I was just wondering if I had a shot at getting in without one.

No pre-order here, FWIW.

Also anyone from outside North America is shit out of luck for this weekend as there's no chance of us being invited. They've said they'll be inviting people from the EU for the next round of normal testing (I'm guessing that people outside the launch zones are still screwed though)
That's weird. My girlfriend's sister, who lives in the UK, got a weekend invite a couple days ago.

Same. I don't think I'll pre-order either since in every game I have, I have played for all of 3 months tops.

He'll have already raided the guild bank and fled with his ill begotten goods by then. You've never seen SLAP guild bank organization. He'd never be able to find the good stuff.

Preorder, no invite.

I got in...21gb of client. Yeesh.
edit: Yes, I did read the NDA. I actually read it again just now. Saying the amount of fucking data seems to be alright.

Their pre-order faq thingie says having the pre-order doesn't count for anything when it comes to the beta invites. It only may buy you the early access, and even that isn't guaranteed.

I kind of felt that way when my WoW friend's account was hacked and they cleared out my tiny guild's bank.
Well, losing all that fish upset me just a little. Nearly a full tab of fish. Bastards. What kind of sick bastard steals your fish?

So if I wanted to chat with any of you people during your stints in the weekend beta, what all servers will you be on?

We can't choose that yet. We don't get access for another 19 hours or so? At least the weekenders.

Do the weekend betas only open up late in the evening or something? I figured it was one of those "it's Friday now, log in any time" deals.

Huh. That sucks I guess.
Also, if you're in the closed beta and haven't logged in the past couple of days but want to play the weekend deal with folks, you may wanna load up the patcher, since there's an 800+ MB patch waiting for you.

Two sessions and three weekends.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something. We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

Two sessions and three weekends. Hehe. I wish the game would just release already. Everyone in my guild is too bored to even log into WoW now.

So apparently the installer/patcher/whatever is terrible? 3 days of trying and I have yet to complete one install successfully.

What is the issue? I ran the exe file and ran the installer overnight without a hitch. Perhaps I got lucky?

It ran superfast for me. Granted, I have a great connection, but still.
Oh and no pre-order and only signed up on the site was it last week or the week before?

It is better marketing for them to NOT send to pre-orders over "person who expressed interest but still has not made any effort to reserve a copy" as pre-order people are already planning on buying.

Patcher frequently goes to a black screen and "not responding" here.
