    i was in beta 3 weekend will i be able to play this weekend? if no is there any website for beta #4 key

    But before then, we will have an additional Beta Weekend Four, from April 12-14, to polish and test features which will be available during Open Beta. Here is just some of what players will experience during the next Beta Weekend:

    - First opportunity to experience Neverwinter's Profession System
    - Explore one or all four different types of professions: Leadership, Mailsmithing, Platesmithing, and Leatherworking.
    - Play through 50 levels of content, including improvements based on feedback from Beta Weekend Three.
    -If y ou played in Beta Weekend Three and are a Neverwinter Founder, you can continue your progress and grow even stronger!

    so to ur question yes u can!!!!!!!!!!!

    The question I have is what time is the server going to available to start playing for both the closed bata weekend 4 and the open bata....we all know the dates we now need to know the time?????

    Hello, I have a question about that open beta.
    Open beta will start 30th and my question is: Will there be some pause (one, two days) between open beta and full start or will it just take one maintenance after few days of open beta and "here you go play and enjoy"?

    You will keep your characters when we begin Open Beta for early access on April 25th.


    is that means we can keep characters from open beta to game release? or the "keep" just means April 25th to open beta?

    After April 25th everything is permanent. It's part of why they gave us the 5-day head start, as this open Beta is considered a "soft launch" of sorts . . . sort of like a store opening for business, yet celebrating it's OFFICIAL grand opening some weeks later :) The store's still there, and so is it's stuff, but a ceremony just makes it all official. So once we create toons on the 25th and after, we keep them for the rest of the time we play the game :)

    They sent a message out saying founders start 5 or 3 days early vs. the 30th start. There will be no wipe. Otherwise why would they start our "head start" on open beta just to wipe us again?

    Just do what I do during a game release. I take off 1 week before launch and 3 weeks after. 1 month should be sufficient for creating a character :)

    Anyone know what time we can log in once open beta starts? Meaning will Heroes of the North be able to log in at midnight on 4/25, Guardians at midnight on 4/27, and everyone else at midnight 4/30? I would assume whatever time it is would be PDT.

    Anywho if anyone knows it would be helpful, thanks :)

    I do not "know" - this is just a guess. But every time we have had Beta, the servers have been launching at 1300 PDT. If they hold to that pattern for the open beta launch, then 1300 PDT would make sense. Generally that gives the devs time to get to work that morning and make final preparations until lunch, then launch once they stuff their faces :) At least that is how I would do it.

    That's a good point. I REALLY hope they don't do that though. I am moving the day my I get my head start and it's quite possible I won't have internet to log on at all until 4/29 :(

    Ugh. I hate moving. Good luck with that. Hope they get your net up with great speed. :)

    Neverwinter will enter Open Beta on April 30, 2013!

    Our upcoming free-to-play action MMORPG will be fully open to the public on April 30, 2013. Millions of brave adventurers will soon be able to defend the city of Neverwinter against Valindra Shadowmantle and hordes of other creatures who threaten the Forgotten Realms.

    How would you like to play before anyone else? Neverwinter Founders will have exclusive early access to the game before the general public. Get a head start and lead the charge!

    Hero of the North Founder's Pack: Five-day early access - play on April 25th!
    Guardian of Neverwinter Pack: Three-day early access - play on April 27th.
    Note: There will be no character wipes after April 25th.

    Are you excited for Neverwinter Open Beta? Let us know by leaving a comment!



    Any thoughts to letting Neverwinter Starter Kit founders get in on the 28th or 29th a day or two early. Seems like a resonable request for a 20 dollar investment?

    A day early would be nice, 2 days early and that would probably make the Guardian pack not worth it.

    Anyone know if all the unlockable stuff, like the mounts, companions and races and whatnot, will be available for the 5 day headstart/open beta time period?

    I'm planning my main to be a drow, so if the Menzwhatever isn't unlocked yet, then the 5 day headstart is kinda pointless for me (and I'm sure pretty much everyone else who bought a HotN pack). Also, I want my wolf.

    And why is it Open Beta if a) there's no wipe, and b) everything is pretty much live...? I must be missing something.

    As far as I know everything will be available even during the 5 days of early access. They call it open beta because there are technically things that still need to be fixed, but since the game is free that basically counts as official release.

    And any word on game client? Can we just keep the one we have now and patch/update it like we did for BW's or will we have to download a new one for Open Beta next week?
