    so those why subscribed for beta in the beginning before any of these promotions get last go eh?

    thats pretty low, we aren't even on the list at this point.

    i clicked for beta the week it was announced.
    i waited this long only to find out that dont mean anything to the devs and only paying customers are respected, look forward to see how much you restrict free players.

    Personally I have no problem with a closed beta for those who are willing to step-up ahead of time and put a personal stamp on this.
    Something for nothing?....that is not realistic... it will be those of us who put down some $$ regularly each month that pay for your fun...
    If someone cannot afford it..cool..free to play for a month here and there would be ideal.
    But to wait, and wait...and not be willing to drop even the $20 for the lowest pack to get in early... Not my style that is for sure...

    I was kinda hoping that I would be able to 'Founder' title my original Beta toon... If we're talking about 'fair'.. That seems fair to me....considering real life $$ has been dropped.

    Thankyou and see you in game....(someday).. ;)

    Can someone tell me if my PAX key will ever be activated for the closed beta? Have had it on my account for almost a year now.

    (I realize we still do not know the answer to this question I am just kidding around and still patiently waiting for an answer)

    what part of F2P do u not understand ok so what if there asking for money to become a founder ok if u don't have the money to bad some do and some don't have the money to get a founder pack and plus u are upset for other people haveing money to buy it and play earily to me it sound like u are a 5 year old child and are jelous of other people so pls try and grow up a lil bit be for u come and play with the big boy players ROFL! and i'll be free 2 play like the others who didn't get a beta key or a founder pack but i'm not crying about it !

    It would be nice if those that sprung for the cheapest pack could get in during that last event as well.

    Just wish Cryptic/PWI would get their act together and put all the eligible beta keys in one of the categories so we know if we are going to get in beta or not with our inactive beta keys.

    I have a PC Gamer key redeemed on this site and I still have no idea if I'm going to be getting in next weekend or not.

    Yea I have the Pc gamer key also. It said originally we were supposed to get in 2nd beta, then they erased that and put it at bottom saying they don't know when.

    The more they wait they just lose more customers because we will be playing other games that come out and that are giving beta access.

    Guess what, Okottekoneko, that's reality. If you walk in to a caf'e or a resturaunt, they expect you to pay otherwise they don't care much to have you there. If this bothers you so much, then dont pay, it's very simple.

    There's a quote I came up with that relates almost all human action in this world, "If you're not earning something from someone or something...money or an object, then don't expect them to care about you because they wont."

    sure is allot of pay to play elements in this supposed free to play game, don't get me wrong if this game was a normal purchased game i would indeed pay money for it, but its big selling point is that it is free to play not pay for a go at bug testing it, hell professional bug testers make that sort of money a day.

    Unless you're in the US, then it's "If you're not earning from someone or something...money or an object, then sit back and the government will provide for you by taking money from everyone else."

    I have tried to play completely free in other F2P's... It is extreamly difficult to do...lol...

    I assume the C-Store will be no different... There will always be something to throw some real life $$ towards..

    Either way Dev's and Exec's need to be paid a salary.... shareholders need a return on investment...
    and we need to pay for it...1 way or another...
    if we execpt this concept then hopfully this won't let us down like SWTOR did :(


    Just say'in..is all ..;)

    P.S> If the PvP is anything like SWTOR .. then it will be off the hook fun.....

    I'm still confused as to how we get a beta key and where to download the game and such. I saw the original post and know what weekend I can play, but have no key, no download.

    Nice! Another DragonLance reader! :)
    Completely separate from Forgotten Realms (which I've never read) - but in BW1 I played Tasslehoff the Halfling! - I don't expect to see a lot of Raistlins , Caramons, Laurana (Lauralanthalasa) or Sturm, Par-Salian or Fizban, hahahah. (And never forget Tanis!)

    Dragonlancers should be pretty safe from 1) moaning and groaning that it's not lore and 2) doppelgangers.

    Though I'm guessing there aren't any "Draconians" in Forgotten Realms. ~shrugs~



    Hmmm... Tika the 2-H um... frying pan fighter, lol. WHAMMO! I expect that lizardmen are found somewhere in every D&D world. They may not be called draconians, but... :) I'd fogotten about Fizban... I think I may have outgrown Raistlin now... hmmm... Fizban... needs consideration. What was that girl's name, the one that was actually a dragon? I'll have to get out my books... Oh man, I thought I'd decided on a name.

    Current word is STO/CO lifers get automatic access (no key required) and should receive an email before Friday (I'll wager: Thursday night around midnight) LOL

    I updated the first post because I forgot to mention Hero of the North Friend Keys. If you did not use yours from Beta Weekend One, you are absolutely welcome to join us this weekend, March 8-10, for Beta Weekend Two. Remember, the key is only good for one Beta Weekend so choose wisely!

    We'll reveal more information on who else is eligible this Friday very soon. Remove all doubt with a Neverwinter Founder's Pack today!
