Title: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: tkinnun0 on September 06, 2008, 11:59:59 AM So, it's presumably 2 hours from Open Beta in my part of the EU, I've downloaded the client (notwithstanding 4 crashes and 2 ADSL/router reboots) and the website wants me to update Flash (http://www.war-europe.com/). Like it wasn't fine 5 hours ago. So what's the deal?
Also, may I respectfully request the the Internet aficionados add "open beta keys" to the list of oxymorons (http://www.atlantamortgagegroup.com/oxymoronlist.htm). Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: IainC on September 06, 2008, 12:05:53 PM So, it's presumably 2 hours from Open Beta in my part of the EU Computer says no (http://www.war-europe.com/#/news/?id_news=en102&lang=en) Quote The wait is almost over! We will be opening the servers for the open beta on Sunday 7th September. For many this will be your first taste of WAR and we want you to be ready. The servers will open in the early afternoon and from that point on you will be able to fight for your realm on the battlefields of the Old World. Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: tkinnun0 on September 06, 2008, 12:29:03 PM Shit, that means my drunkenness is some 14-15 hours premature. Good thing I stocked up with beer and cider.
But, umm, do I still need a key to get into the open beta? Or was it a ploy for someone to get some registrations (http://www.fileplay.net/keys/warhammer)? Feel free to not answer that question and tell me to wait the 14-15 hours like everyone else (http://www.33smiley.com/smiley2/animals/cats/7.gif) Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU?

Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: Azaroth on September 06, 2008, 01:00:39 PM My local EB is selling preorder keys for $5.
I did not previously know this. I thought it was 44.99 as the site displayed. So, yeah. Not going back today because it's 30 min in the car - but if anyone is super hard up tomorrow, give me a shout.

The resulting 145 page, 2000+ post drama thread on Warhammer alliance (http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76403) is worth a read for pure nerd outrage.

It was all so clear :/ Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: Evildrider on September 07, 2008, 06:16:07 PM I've been playing on and off all day on the U.S. servers..

" If having delayed access to a beta test really drives you to such depths of anger and fury then - and there is no polite way to put this - there is something wrong with you." I just have to say that saying something true to a bunch of internet retards, while satisfying, will cause you a lot of grief... Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: Simond on September 08, 2008, 10:37:04 AM If anybody at the company I work for said that to a customer, they'd be out the door so fast their feet wouldn't touch the ground. No ifs or buts, that's Grade A "Grab a box and clear your desk - you're fired!" material.
Edit: http://onlinegamesareanichemarket.wordpress.com/ Quote - Update - So, since I wrote this post I’ve gotten a lot of feedback on it, some of it quite critical of GOA and of my defense of them. While some of it centers around defending players’ rights to be angry some of it also centers around comments made by IanC regarding the situation. Let me be really clear on this: 1) GOA messed up, they apologized and they are working hard to do better. This is a good start but not an excuse for them. Neither their CEO nor I am defending what happened yesterday. It was an ugly day. 2) I think that the players have every right to be angry, disappointed and frustrated. I agree with them 100% but what I do notagree with is the level of threats and abuse that followed. I know why some players feel that way but my not agreeing with their reactions does not mean that I’m excusing GOA, clear? 3) I have read IanC’s post on the situation and I have just communicated to GOA my thoughts on it. I’ll simply say this, I do not agree with what he said, I do not support what he said and his comments were, in my opinion, way out of line. Mark Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU?

I hope that Mark Jacobs hanging him out to dry isn't nearly as dire as it sounds. I guess he should have known that after a hugely terrible PR situation occurring in the "BUT WARHAMMER IS HUEG IN EURPE!!" euro open beta someone would have to be made a scapegoat. Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU?

That line has character though. Can we say that IainC pushed the f13 panic button on his keyboard at the wrong time in the wrong place? It's our fault! Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: Abelian75 on September 08, 2008, 11:19:57 AM Yeah, that does seem a little unfair since MJ pretty much said the same thing in his blog, and then turned around and edited the blog post to say he thought IainC's words were out of line. Admittedly I guess they're slightly harsher, but in neither case did I think there's anything wrong with saying what they're saying. People are utter dicks and should be called out on it, o noes.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I get that you don't want to piss off your customers, so I understand not confronting them as a tactical choice. Still pretty chickenshit though. No offense. I'd love to see companies just being more upfront with people. Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: HRose on September 08, 2008, 11:20:34 AM Hooray, MJ found his scapegoat!

Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: Evildrider on September 08, 2008, 02:20:43 PM It's not even new MMO's. The DDO community is full of r-tards. I mean they complain because of the lack of dev information the 2 weeks before Gen-con. Gen-Con comes and they bombard us with info about upcoming mods and such, pretty much all we need to know, besides the *secret* project. Not even 2 days later there are people complaining about the lack of info.
It's the same in pretty much all game forums. I think this is the reason that some companies are going to not having official forums. I really don't blame them. Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: tazelbain on September 08, 2008, 02:22:23 PM Because Devs have no creditability. And GOA has negative creditability.

It's not logic, you paid $5 for a ticket to beta and a $5 off coupon for the game. With open beta being such a short time, those people who purchased the box specifically with the intention of playing the game for a couple of days (and not take advantage of the $5 coupon) have been, in the most technical sense, "fucked out of their money". Title: Re: Open Beta Keys? In my EU? Post by: schild on September 08, 2008, 03:01:33 PM No, you paid $5 to guarantee a copy of the game on release day which will then be reduced by $5 (basically paying the first $5 of the total price).

Quote We will be bringing down all open beta servers to apply patch 4.1.1 at 3pm CET today. We expect this operation to take approximately one hour and we will be sure to let you know when the servers are available once more. Quote Patch Update - 19:45 CET As you will have noticed the open beta servers are still down following the patch operation. Our technicians are working on the issue and we expect to be able to reopen them shortly. We are sorry for the delay. Currently it's 22:50 CET. Been away since Sunday when their authentication servers were down but game servers up, come back to authentication servers up but game servers down.

Post by: Trippy on September 12, 2008, 03:53:31 PM In their defense it sounds like Mythic is to blame as well.

Patch was delayed till afternoon from morning because they were waiting on an update from Mythic and then something went kaplooey which requried Mythic to get in there and figure out what they broke. We've been around this before though, and not just for WAR. Personally, I don't think many players care if the problem is that GOA can't work with Mythic or that Mythic can't work with GOA. Or that opentransit can't work with GOA working with Mythic etc. |
