    To check if you have activated the beta key:

    Click on

    https://my.perfectworld.com/nw/redeemkey

    Just below text box:
    Neverwinter [Status]: Accepted

    means beta key activated.

    Thank you for this! I had an issue with it accepting my key and submitted a ticket, then came back here to see if there was anything on here about this issue. You saved me a 3-4 day wait to see if I could get my key to work. Thanks again gillrmn!

    edit: I wasn't clear, I couldn't get my key to get accepted. Not saying I am playing Beta:eek:

    The big Download button also appears. So...

    But it's useless right now so we still have to wait.

    Which fury? The bi tch Queen, Auril or the beast Malar?

    I would try to stay away from all three. They are bad news, worst of all Auril...

    Anyone else notice the typo in 4th sentence of the Neverwinter article? C'mon PC Gamer, are you even trying?

    >Mountain Rage

    Sounds like a pretty cool ability.

    Sorry, the genie can't grant early beta. Anti magic zone around Cryptic and all ;)

    The game sounds great and I simply cannot wait to help in the beta. Though the article itself seems a tad lacking in my opinion. I guess I don't know what I was expecting but it seems like a very very cursory examination of their experience. Unless that was the point or something.

    There are still certain aspects and features of the game that haven't been announced or discussed by Cryptic/ PWE yet, but I will tell you that the article had information and screenshots that had not previously been seen or talked about.

    Sitting on a couch inside the lamp, reading NW newsletter, the eyes of Genie turn red.

    "I reflect the heart of those who bear the lamp" he says.

    He summons two Tarrasque.

    "That should take care of two wishes"

    Read the article today, good info, can hardly wait. I certainly hope the class names are just place holders.

    I have a stupid question: do the keys from the PC Gamer magazine give you greater or lower chance to participate in the beta than the ones from Torchlight 2 preorder/Raiderz Founder Pack or is it just the same?

    They give you the same chance to participate in beta - 100% - but we have no way of ascertaining which phase of beta either key will give you access to.
    It would be logical but perhaps not safe to assume that beta phase assignment will progress with chronological linearity according to the distribution of the keys.

    Goddamn I made that sound a lot more complicated than it needed to be.
    If you got a key, you'll get in, but nobody knows when. There's a good chance that the people who got their keys sooner will get in sooner.

    There is no low or up afaik. The chance is random.

    I got an ecopy of the magazine through google play magazines. It just had a link I had to enter into my browser, asked me a trivia question about the contents of the issue, asked for an email address and after filling that out, I got sent a key. That form seems exploitable. I hope that's not the case...

    Is it possible to get one of the codes inside the UK? I've been trying to pick up one of the US editions through Google Play and it only comes up with the UK edition.

    Tried there and I just get stuck with "Sorry! This edition of PC Gamer (US Edition) is not eligible for sale in your region." Guess I'll have to hope I get lucky with a beta code.

    Sorry Drizzt but unfortunately the promotion gives one of the mounts at random.

    NO offense Drizzt but I saw your name and thought, either R. A. Salvatore has joined us and is hiding behind the name Drizzt thinking noone would actually expect it or that you are a real big Drizzt fan
