    It's an unhealthy practice to assume. That being said, do you play video games? If yes, how often do you plan on playing Neverwinter Online?

    Welcome, Sir Sominator!

    Two questions if you don't mind,

    Do you plan on playing the game yourself? If so, as what?

    And something people've been wondering about concerning the drow race being exclusive to 'founders' the first 60 days.. do you know if both the hero of the north as guardian pack get the race? Or just the hero pack? (both classified as founder packs)

    P.S Personally don't care, elves stink!

    I heard that there is a Foundry Alpha from CerberusFilms, also, Rob Overmeyer told us he was looking for people who want in the Foundry Alpha, well could you get me in that(I really want to test it a lot and put out great content).

    Also are you a volunteer or a hired guy?

    I also second the question about the drow exclusivity for the first 60 days. Are they exclusive to just the Hero of the North pack buyers, or will Guardians have access to them too?

    Hey everybody!

    :)
    Feel free to use this thread to ask me anything you like, within reason. ;)

    Not sure if you can answer my questions, as one is technical and the others may not be finalized yet. ...

    Q: Does Neverwinter support triple monitor?

    Q: After I've made an adventure in the Foundry can I update it?
    (Like say someone suggests an improvement or finds a bug.)

    Q: Can players who have rated my adventures with x stars and y comment edit their stars and comments?
    (As above, say I changed it and they want to revise stars or comments.)

    Q: Assuming the Foundry is accessable this next beta weekend, will my adventure(s) be wiped after the weekend or will they stay open for alpha players and other future beta weekend players to play?

    I'd love to get into Alpha for that too if possible. I have several ideas. :)

    Though I have a feeling what you heard is that alpha players made foundry content, not that there was special access for players to get into it. :(

    @ocrambos tyvm!

    You bet, I'll be playing the game all the time! I usually gravitate towards sneaky classes, so my main will probably be a Trickster Rogue. ;)

    As for the Founder's pack exclusives, we haven't announced anything about this yet, but thanks for the feedback!

    I asked for clarification on that on the Facebook page a week or so ago. It was implied that the background of Menzobarren Renegade is "exclusive" and others can't get it, but that anyone could unlock Drow as a race. (Though it was not stated if that would be unlockable at launch.)

    @matixzon yeah! Both of them, including some expansions and mods. The original is on my top 3 games of all time.

    Hello Sominator,
    How are ya?

    First, cheers from Brazil (yay!), and sorry for bad english, as not native language. ):
    Now questions:

    About wizards, I've always loved D&D for the possibility of having all those different spells (even some wich wasn't all that useful, anyway). How will it be on NWNO? Theres some idea of how many spells will we have?

    About feats, I've seen (and Jesus, how many videos I've seen) on many videos that the Feats will work very different from previous D&D games, where you can choose (wrong sometimes) freely your Feats, while on NWNO (as far as I can tell) seems like you'll have to choose "pre defined" Feats. Doesn't it kill a little bit the ideia of it? And about Metamagic Feats (I loved those)?

    Thats for all now, but I'll think about more questions later. :D
    Thanks and "Obrigado". (:

    Unoficiall reply - I believe that is in Astral Diamonds, which you can then choose to convert to Zen. I don't believe there is a way to get money 'out' of the game. It stays Astral Diamonds (in Neverwinter) or Zen (in Perfect World).

    Question: During the upcoming Beta weekend are you planning on toning down the pace of the leveling system? I was not in it but I did watch the first look by mmohut and by the end of the tutorial segment.. which was not long. He was already several levels into the game.

    Question: Will foundry be run as a separate downloadable program compared to the game itself? IE: Someone who doesn't like to make dungeons can just download the game and play in them as opposed to downloading the 'extra files' required. or vice versa (however silly that may sound). I, for one, will be doing both, but I am curious.

    Well I have one question that has led me to going to the website many times xD is there an official date for open beta yet? Or do you have a feeling? I recall something about it being late last year was the approx then I think it got changed to Q1 of this year. And with these beta weekends it's looking like it won't be out until may or june maybe :< I'm just curious if there is an actual date or time period you're confident of saying the game will be available for everyone. Thanks for your time!

    I do think that a LOT of people are looking for an answer to this:

    After the recent change to the FAQ section where it is stated that
    "Please note that the Drow will only be available for Founder's Pack purchasers for at least 60 days after launch."
    The title "Founders Pack" include both of the founder packages or only the hero of the north?
    As this is not yet made clear, i am pretty sure that the community would love a clear and straight response to this.

    @maciejwafel we haven't yet announced anything beyond the classes on our Extended FAQ.

    The Bard is one of my favorite D&D classes, particularly 3.5 Bard!

    Not sure if this question falls under your area, but I'm most interested in how respecs will work, especially given the practice of slowly releasing classes. Thanks!

    Hi and congratulations on your new post :)

    I have a couple of questions, first being:
    How big do the zones get later in the game?, because the zones i played through during the first Weekend felt quite small and linear, granted that was only up to level 30, but still, how much bigger/open do they get?

    Second question is:
    How long after launch do you expect there will be a ranged non-magical class? (ranger/hunter/marksman/scout etc..)

    Third and final question is:
    What with the game being great for people who want to create their own content (Foundry) and being able to customize the UI alot (Placement/Scale), Will you be supportive of Addon creators?, This is something i feel is a very big part of what keeps an MMO fresh for a very long time, and it's something that i sorely miss from other games i play.

    Thanks for your time, and i look forward to reading the completed AMA once it's done =).

    EDIT: How come it says "PWE User" under my forum name when i purchased the Hero of The North founders pack?
