    OK, I am in the open Beta, but I won't be able to tell y'all anything specific because of the NDA secrecy rules. I purchased a lifetime membership sight unseen, and I took the first week of Sept off to play the game...

    Am I nuts or what?

    I pre-loaded the Beta. It will activate tomorrow.

    Steve, care to coordinate a server for RR members?

    There is only one server. New technology. It will serve all the worlds players.
    But it will be an honor to play with my brothers and sisters.
    Once we get going I want to start a once a week group, where we only play these toons when we show up. Kinda like the Friday night gang or something.

    But with FSTDT watching abd the ability to have the same names we should never publish them here, but only in PMs until we have an established group.
    after that time we can be open. (I say this because I think I recognized a FSTDT member on their forums).

    Monday, Aug 17th. For everyone else it starts Sept 1st. Pre-orders will use the Beta access to play three days early in a head start--so the weekend before is all ours!

    LOL, we could make a team called Guardians of Destiny, or G.O.D for short.

    I remember in City of Heroes, a bunch of us made cow themed heroes. I took the hulk figure, shrank him down to three feet tall, put him in a cow outfit and gave him a cigar.

    I called him Mini-Moo.

    My daughter had a Tauren in WoW name 'Milkduds'. Mine was called 'Bullchip'.

    My dream was to make one with the black skin (fur?) and call him Angus.

    Apparently many other people had the same dream before I did.

    Mr. Mannn...They still have the NDA active for the open beta? That's odd... I've done a few closed betas in my time and the NDA was always lifted when the open beta started. Reason being and open beta is typically open for whoever, so there's really no reason to keep anything under wraps...

    The new patch they installed at 2 AM this morning is working. Download it and start over.
    The download is slow but won't freeze up on you. I'm at 45 minutes and I have 18%

    It hasn't quit on me yet. in 2 or 3 hours from now I should be up and running.
    I took today off to fix the car, and its perfect timing. The car mau need a new starter or alternator.

    Lost connectin to the patch server sometime last night.

    Fileplanet posted a newer version of the Client

    http://www.fileplanet.com/203771/200...en-Beta-Client

    Going to try that instead. Presumably its mostly pre-patched.

    EDIT: Verified. If it patched at all it was only for a few seconds.

    One of the beta testers said he had 30 attack toys on a bad guy at one time.
    One of my characters will so be a gadgeteer.
