According to what they said on Twitter, i will quote for ease

"The intended design is that anyone who can play in this Beta Weekend can access the beta forums once they are logged in."

Can someone tell me where the beta forums are at, ive been playing since friday evening (when my internet will allow grr) but i do not see any extra forums than i could see before i was given the buddy key.

Thanks in advance

    Howdy!

    Here is the link to the sub-forums directly. You should see a condensed listing of these forums on the main index also and should be the first set there.

    If anyone has Weekend Access to this current Weekend but is unable to access these forums, please file a Support Ticket (link uptop the forums). Non-Weekend Beta Testers will get a permission error.

    Cheers!

    I have this same issue, but based on the first response I received from support they don't quite get what I'm saying. :(

    That's rather silly, seeing as we have access to the weekend betas.

    Why would you lock half of your beta players out of the beta forum and ask them to report issues through a third party? I'm having a few BSOD and crash issues, so it'd be awesome to know if this was a thing or just my PC dying on me.

    I'm even more dissapointed at how they treat those who bought Torchlight II, and was given a Closed beta key.

    I redeemed my key, and when I press the download button on the neverwinter page, all I get is greyed out download buttons.

    This is unthinkably bad. You get a good offer for a game, and a closed beta key is included. Then why the *** can't they keep their promises and let people in who even payed for the offer?

    Closed beta key = Play before everyone else. There was no text what so ever at the time of buying TL2 and the closed beta key, about not inviting the people who got the closed beta key for the beta weekend.

    Shame on you (IM)perfect world!

    Actually I and other mods warned for months that just because you got a closed beta key you were not guaranteed when you would get access. And see: http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?30761-Neverwinter-Beta-Weekend-details-Read-this-first!http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?30761-Neverwinter-Beta-Weekend-details-Read-this-first!.


    Please heed the warning of phased access in the future means stages and not first. Thank you.

    Probably used the same reasoning that was used for the decision to have players pay to beta test.
    -Rule of Acquisition #113: Always have sex with the boss.
    -I am one of the many victims from the hijacked Caspian Division.
    I will not let the childish acts of a criminal ruin this game for me.
    -The actions of Cryptic, on the other hand......

    Calm down a little. It's obviously a technical issue that's not intentional. If you had beta weekend access then they should have had beta forum access as well. If you fall into that category just open up a ticket as Zebular mentions.

    Did you even read Karisch's post? I'll quote it for you...

    I have been trying to play but I keep getting a message that says "You are not allowed to play right now!"

    Can someone tell me what that is and how to fix it? I am a full founder having bought the top package...

    Thanks...
