I may be wrong, but doesn't look like an official date announcement. That's like EB games or Walmart giving the release date. But the rest is pretty cool. Thanks for the link.
i hope u are not wrong since if game has been moved to 2Q then it wont be coming till late 3Q since none makes big game releases in 2q,and i like thet vulcan dungen form gameplay video

That's a fantastic video and walkthrough of the character screens, inventory, character sheet, etc. I only wish it had been recorded in English. I hope they will release an English version of it, or that maybe Cryptic (high hopes here) will soon release all that info in a video of their own.
Thanks for that awesome find warpet!

I hope Foundry creators can produce content like that. I'll play it over and over.

that video is outstanding. As long as combat is snappy and responsive, I can already tell this is going to basically fill my gaming needs for quite a while.
Kinda wishing I didn't get a D in german all those years ago...
oh well... this video just reaffirms for me what I already knew... this game is sick.
Gameplay looks good though but I wonder if this was a tester who shouldn't have posted this because it's breaking NDA. There is a BUG icon at the top screen makes me think that this a bug report icon that many many beta/alpha builds have this in the UI for easy bug reporting.
Seriously if this is an authorized released PR then the American PR needs to be fired or reassigned cause this is pretty ridiculous.
While I understand the frustration I'd be surprised if this has come out of the PR department. This screams of an NDA break and wouldn't be shocked if it's taken down at some point.
That said I don't speak German and it could be a German dev speaking for all I know.
And none of this is within a breach of the NDA? Or does the NDA terms not apply to the German/French versions of the game?
What exactly is going on here with the different localizations anyway? I thought Perfect World Entertainment was publishing the North American localization.
I am actually a bit confused as how there are even French and German versions to begin with.

The poor healer the rogue didn't know what he was doing:) and thanks adding it to my gameplay videos.
That is a reputable gaming site in Germany I seriously doubt the broke NDA's. I'm pretty sure its sanctioned by PWE and Cryptic.

At 1:50 they appear show rolling and rerolling ability scores. At first I thought the devs must have gone insane to include something like that in an MMO.
But it doesn't look like it's a real roll. The only two sets of scores that get generated are:
STR 13, CON 10, DEX 19, INT 10, WIS 10, CHA 16
STR 13, CON 10, DEX 20, INT 10, WIS 8, CHA 15
Those two arrays just get cycled through with each "roll". So it's really just choosing between two predefined arrays, it looks like. Rather silly to call that a roll, and just obfuscates what's really going on, which I do not approve of. Clarity is always the best policy in game and interface design.

I believe they are under a press NDA, that has different terms of use compare to the standard NDA signed by users. I wouldn't worry your selves too much over it.

While you might be right, it could also just be limited functionality of the rolling mechanic for now. We don't really know i guess.

A vast rolling system seams fairly pointless, any one wanting a set roll will sit for hours or days to get the correct stats, if they had a vast roll system they may as well have gone for a point spending system. I think there will be a few preset stat rolls in the attempt to stop people ruining their character.
While you might be right, it could also just be limited functionality of the rolling mechanic for now. We don't really know i guess.
If you mean more ability arrays to cycle through, then sure, add more options, but they still shouldn't call it a "roll".
If you mean turn it into an actually random generation of stats, well, that just makes things far worse. It turns a silly and obfuscated design into a pants-on-head-insane design. But I doubt the devs would actually do such an incredibly stupid thing.

Looks like an English version of the Alpha testing to me. Can't read or speak German, so I have no idea when said footage was actually recorded. If the footage came from a NDA allowance for a gaming site, then I'd imagine the English speaking gaming sites with Alpha access will have their own footage up when they can. Doesn't look like anything a PR department put together themselves, so I doubt this is the case of ignoring a portion of the player-base over another portion.
hahahaha yeah same for me,, what an AMAZING video, thats just what i needed to confirm, i will be playing this game, and only this game for a long time... all those background options, the sharp response graphics etc etc...i paused the video pretty much every time he zoned in the mouse on anything, wow, cant wait, anybody knoes how long alpha usually last??? bring that beta ASAP omg... (and yes this video probably will be removed very soon)
