Fury Pre-Beta Signups on IGN/Fileplanet

[Adam_Carpenter]

To quote Schild: 'Make a thread, and expressly say that "Schild is doing an interview, he asked me to post this in his absence"'

With that out of the way, anyone interested in getting into Fury before the formal beta starts can check out this link on Fileplanet: http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions/fury/

If you know nothing about Fury, check out Yoru’s GDC writeup (http://www.f13.net/index.php?itemid=549) or a massive compilation of articles/Q&As/previews here that one of the LotD guys put together (http://www.warcry.com/forums/read/248.42343). 

EDIT BY SCHILD: FORWARD THE FOLLOWING PORTS IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES PLAYING: TCP: 24000, 21002

I approve of the above message.

[Trippy]

Fucking POS Fileplanet won't give me an fucking access key. God I hate that fucking site.


Edit: This thing is fucking broken. The key access verification page just sends me back to fileplanet.com. Has anybody managed to get this to work?

[SnakeCharmer]

Holy cow...

I tried to sign up but got 'system requirements too low'

My specs:
AMD +5600 dual core
EVGA 7950 GT KO
2 GB DDRAM
Cable modem

YIKES

[Trippy]

Sounds like a bug. My system is lower-spec than yours and after 45 minutes I finally managed to get past the fucking verification setup.

You can try entering in something different. Mine is:

A64 > 2.0 GHz
7800 GT 256 MB
1.6 - 2 GB RAM
DSL

[Signe]

After I read your post, Trippy, I went and checked and it worked and now I feel guilty.

I would but wont let me re-enter.  Clear my cookies?

[Trippy]

Yeah clear the cookies and delete the cache while you are at it.

[Trippy]

Fricking Fileplanet fucking full public servers. Gah!

If you have problems after doing what Trippy suggested, let me know cause your system is well above the min.

[SnakeCharmer]

It worked.  Thanks for the help, though.

[Raguel]

I can't get past the security code. I keep getting an error:

I already sent a ticket in.

[Trippy]

Yes that was one of my problems. I couldn't get past that until I allowed cookes from revsci.net even though they are an adware company. You may need to clear out your cache and your cookies as well.

[Trippy]

Gah! This fucking download manager keeps fucking stoping and not restarting automatically. And then everytime I have to start it back up through no fault of my own I have fucking wait in line again. Isn't the point of making somebody install an ActiveX plug-in *and* a separate download manager is so they don't have to babysit these long downloads?

My friend had very similar specs and was also turned down for not having adequate PC specifications. He logged out of FP, cleared his cache, cleared his cookies, closed his browser, opening it back up and still was unable to get a key due to "Step 1 Failed" when clicking on the link. So it seems to me that the spec fail is bound to your FP account, which is pretty fucked up, hope they fix it without having to go through customer service channels just to get a beta.

2gb dl, guess I'll leave it on overnight, record high temperatures and my portable space heater of a computer will make tonight interesting. I hope it's interesting.

Edit: Hmmm dl appears to not work.

You and Strazos would make interesting roommates.

I think my Fileplanet Download Manager (TM) has attempted to download 5 times... I'm currently waiting in line again.

[Trippy]

Yeah I had three fits and starts in the first hour but now it seems to be okay (watch it disconnect now).

[Signe]

Don't use Fileplanet's download manager.  It comes from Troy.

[MrHat]

Trippy, can you host it elsewhere or is that a no no?

[Trippy]

Perhaps, but my connection is so slow and fucking FilePlanet doesn't work with a text browser so it's going to literally take days for me to download and then upload the file.

[Xerapis]

Yeah, I got the system requirements too low also.

But I meet them all.  Except I have Vista instead of XP.  Surely they wouldn't?

[Signe]

They might....

[Morfiend]

Any chance of passing out a few keys here?

[Zedword]

thanks for the heads up, just started tracking this game a bit ago and I'm pretty excited to check it out. Something to look forward to when i get home.... hrm....now, to find a blank CD at work so i can download it here and bring it with me.

--Zedword, unleashed

[Hoax]

Fuck didn't see this till now there better still be keys or codes or whatever you need.  I need something to play, Rakion is annoying me..


*edit1*
Got the d/l going 700+/s I did get denied by specs once, but me and my friend Red Stripe say fuck off and we may have entered > instead of < or somesuch shit.

*edit2*
d/l compleat, but I am going to sleep, fucking tired and buzzed nicely...

[Raguel]

pfft. used firefox and it worked. microsoft is a virus. 

[Trippy]

Has anybody figured out how to get a beta forum account? The link on the FilePlanet post-signup page and in the email get redirected to the general Beta signup page. I filled it out just for heck of it but of course never got a Beta forum account emailed to me.

[Hawkbit]

Same here with the forum login. 

I managed to get a pretty fast dl but my cpu is 2.0g.  They're literally blocking me from attempting to enter the game, shutting the program down because their minimum is 2.2g.  Argh!

Trippy, you should get an e-mail about the forum from an Auran account within the next day or so.

Basically, IGN/Fileplanet need to pass all the registered e-mail addys over so we can add you to the forum’s authorized list. 

[Trippy]

Cool thanks Adam.

[FatuousTwat]

I was wondering the same thing. Thanks.

[waylander]

I certainly approve of this message!

[Agnarth]

Is anyone else having trouble patching? It keeps trying to connect to an FTP server and failing then it trys to connect to ftp://localhost and we all know thats not gonna work. I'm trying to reinstall now, some of my buddies are on already, they say they're playing the "green" server.
