Hello.

Now that we're getting so close to the CB I wanna clear this doubt i've been having.
The CB will really last 1 month (thats what a friend told me).

I just wanna clear that up, because I really didnt believe him, 1 month is to much for a game that is basicly out there, just some traslation needed.

    1 month isn't that bad for Closed Beta, released in other parts of the world or not.

    If this size of a game was built from scratch, it would be more like 6 month closed testing.

    The whole point behind CB is to let players test various aspects of the game and see how they work (from devs point of view). Imo 1month seems pretty good timeframe for this, seeing the hc grinders will get to rather high levels and thus test and provide info of those higher levels to the team. While the more casual players will be testing the lower level content.

    Oh and when Im referring to 1month of CB, its totally a hearsay material. Not sure if it has been mentioned in an official source or anything :)

    I must agree that 1 month is entirely appropriate and reasonable considering the size and amount of content to be tested for this version. That period of time should be sufficient for players to reach in the range of 50-60 which while lacking the chance of testing out some of the higher range which may still have some issues with bugs/problems noticed from the existing versions, it does provide a good amount of testing to be done. This is of course provided the xp rate/levelling speed remained consistent with the MY version. If it is for example amped up for the purpose of this testing period then even some of the higher end content might possibly be tested to a fair degree as well.
