Anybody sign up for it?

I just got my invite to a Beta event.

I've got a feeling I signed up with Imac specs but I sold my Imac and now have a PC, hope I can still have a go play on it!!

Let us know! I cant wait.
Its personally my most anticipated game of 2014, but it seems every dick out there seems to have condemned it before even playing it!

It was only before I was reading more into it and it does look good.

I am most probably going to get it on Xbox one, even though it is going to be at least £8 a month to play. I think they should include a few months play time in the box really though for £50!!

Hopefully there is some sort of friend thing in working order on it.

Otherwise we could maybe jump into a skype or TS.

Yes, but the Beta is only a weekend at a time. Its not just open play 24/7.

Ahh, well.. anyway.. i just signed up! Hopefully i get an invite!

Im really hoping this game isnt a flop.
Ive played WoW since Dec 2006 and bought skyrim and my initial thought was what a good MMO it would make.
Here's hoping!

I've had a do at Wow, I started around Cata then quit under a year later then started again at Mop and lasted about 8 months!

I do enjoy MMO's but I only like playing it high end gear hunting and raiding, only clause is that you have to basically plan your life around the game!

I got completely addicted to acquiring the games rarest stuff, I got so many mounts people would kill for on that game! xD

Im completely the opposite.
I love leveling up and exploring.
I had a great raiding guild, but come the end i only ever played at raid time because everything else i had done so many times before.
I hate to admit it, but i clocked up far more than 200 days game time on WoW.

Not good.

Edit: but i also had some of the most fun ive ever had on WoW

Was a DAOC veteran - my very first proper MMO experience (and yet to be beaten to this day as far as pure fun/excitement gaming-wise).

Tried several others but nothing has come close tbh.

Hoping that the three faction PvP in this will be along similar lines.

Keep my fingers crossedsmile

Variety is what its all about! smile

Will be cool having a live action MMO instead of a hotbar spam as well, also looking forward to Destiny coming out but only in Sept now. frown

I just checked my inbox. No invite...........

I think if this game was £50-60 I'd have it in a flash but I don't want to be paying £10 a month.

If its anything like WoW, £10 a month will be an utter bargain.
It kept me entertained on a massive scale. There was always stuff i hadnt done before.
£10 a month is certainly cheaper than buying a new game every month (as im sure many do!)

According to review you have read, of course, as you have all agreed to a NDA
