    This game not good enough to put money into.

    So, beta is about you testing the game. Essentially, it's about you giving your time to PWE. Unless your time is absolutely worthless, beta *IS* you putting money into the game. Unless you aren't planning on actually testing, in which case your participation is worth approximately the same as your time.

    BW4 is in appreciation for those who do feel the game is worth supporting. It is the developer's way of saying thank you to all those who feel the game is worth it. I don't think I would spend any time on the game at all if I didn't feel it was worth my support.

    Just Curious, if you feel the game is not worth it, why do you want to Beta test it? Do you genuinely want to help improve it? If so, why not throw some serious support in to help fund that improvement?

    With that said, I would guess you (and folks with the same opinion) would be last in line to get into closed beta. At least I would hope so :/

    UPDATE:
    Beta Weekend 4 - April 12-14:
    • Hero of the North Founder's Pack purchasers
    • Guardian of Neverwinter purchasers
    • Hero of the North Friend Key, if it has not been used.

    One way to get guaranteed access is by purchasing a Neverwinter Founder's Pack. Get yours today and become a Hero of the North!

    Wow this is total BS why doesn't any one else other then founders in on BWE4 they already get a 3 or 5 day headstart

    you guys (PWE and Cryptic) really need to change this is completely unfair

    btw if i had $200 or even $60 to send on this game yeah i would but as many may know time of hard and money isn't growing on trees now is it :P

    Read the dates. Also read the other multiple posts placed in multiple spots all over the forums and web site stating the dates the game goes live.

    There are plenty of games for you to play in the meantime while we who actually supported this game get the perks we paid for. And 260 bucks was not that much money, and I am in the LOWER income bracket LOL.

    It is the developer's way of saying "Thank you" to those who are willing and able to support the game. No need to be upset, instead be happy that the game was made by a company that is willing to reward it's supporters.

    You just asked someone who wants everything to be free and handed out right here and now to be happy for something they are going to get to play completely free and which he will not spend a dime on . . . I give you kudos for your optimism and attempt :) ~thumbs up~

    I'm quite comfortable with the Founder's getting exclusive access to BW4. I'm looking forward to Open Beta.

    If you read the original post it was quite clear. Only players who purchased a Hero of the North, or Guardian of the North pack can control their own ability to be able to play beta weekend 4. The only way you can play bw4 without a purchase is to get somebody who purchased the Hero of the North pack to send you their unused beta weekend invite key.

    Even if people don't get into BW4 they can get into open BETA shortly thereafter:

    Will there be access to the, as yet un revealed new character type //class on the April 12-14 weekend ? Or on the April 30th Open Beta start ?
    I sort of refuse to pay to make a character i wont use once a ranged class is introduced, assumeing the new character is a ranger //hunter of course.
    PS. for founders Open Beta starts on April 25th ?

    April 25 for Heroes of the North, April 27 for Guardians and April 30 for all.
    Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

    No official info on that im afraid. But even if the new class will be introduced on BW4 or Open Beta it will probably be Warlock.

    Anyone know when we will be able to log on for BW4? I can see the days stamped in more places but can't find an exact time,it's my first NW beta weekend I'm getting into,been on the fence about the game until recently.

    SO 2 casters AND a cleric, and missing the single biggest MMO/Role Playing /fantasy, class ? Well thats saved me $600 as my 2 sons and me wont be getting founders packs then. Massssive oversight there, and im guessing the next new class will be MONK.....which is why i refused to play DIABLO 3.

    If you are not a Founder then you cant play during BW4, you must wait for Open Beta on April 30.

    Like i said, no official info - Warlock is speculated because some folks saw ingame items for them, but on the other hand Devs said that thay are working on Ranger class. Noone knows for sure.

    Previous beta weekends started at 12:00 PM PDT, so my guess is BW4 will be the same.

    You can only buy each package once, but you can buy all 3 of them to get all rewards.

    Hi here something that troubels me.
    First thing that makes me concerned is the information I found, that obviuosly it seems that all Players who did not buy a founder or guardian pack do get their account whiped. And I did not find any other statement concerning the whipe of accounts! And the search functiuon of this forum i not realy working!
    Second thing that troubels me is that only the buyers of the guardian or founder Pack do get access to the last beta!
    So for my part I did support the game, I did buy a mount. So I spended around 50

    So for my part I did support the game, I did buy a mount. So I spended around 50 EUR to get it. Why did I not buy a pack? Well because I do not like the Mounts in both of them and the 200 EUR Pack was also to expensive for me.
    So compared to the Pack I spended more money on items then the guys paying for a guardian of neverwinter pack but still do not get access. Ok I didnt plan to buy the mount to get access to a specific closed beta - but I am a bit pissed when the statement shows up, the dev thanks us with this special beta access for supporting the game! So actualy that means they look down on me on me because I bought another product!
    That is not nice, especially if they also punish me by whiping my account!

    How did you spend 50 EUR? If you bought Zen, then it will be given back to you at launch.
    All accounts (characters) will be wiped after 4th BW, doesnt matter if you are Founder or not.
