I've been on and off and on and off on this, but then i layed Skyrim for a while and realised how absolutely f*ck all i want other people in it

Personal preference, but i think a valid one.

For the most part I play MMOs solo I don't like grouping and I don't like doing stuff at other peoples pace. I do like interacting with other players though, be it trading, pvp or just chatting in guild.

 

[Mabs]

anyone know if there is any more open beta stuff going on , and if pre ordering gets your perma beta ?

Yeah, same with me in MMOs, but somehow my brain doesn't wrap around elder scrolls world with "LFG lol wtfbbq" and bunnyhopping reptiles

Why can't MMOs operate on a on release first free month (not beta) say October-November (Not when you decide that month to be) then after that, you pay for the game, then you pay for subs.. surely that'd make more people try the game, then those on the fence could be like yay this is great (Let's face it, if you're putting effort into making your game, then you should be optimistic, and be expecting people to be jumping on the 'right' side of the fence.)

The only reason I couldn't see this happening is for initial sales and not wanting to lose the game sales to those who don't continue to play it.

It's just most MMOs always go for a free game and subs or completely f2p when the game is dying, and less people are interested, rather than doing it backward?

Ever thought about this @Mark Jacobs?

I've always said; free to download, sub based, short trial.

So you download for free, then get a week of limited play, then pay a regular sub if you play. Sure you lose some cash from sales to people who won't play it after trying, but that's just cheating people out of their money anyway.

Same, creating the account now

 

[Mabs]

if we already got beta access, presumably from a pre-purchase, anyone know if we can give away the weekend key ? ;x

 

[Poag]

One of my mates who preordered didn't get a key. I've given him mine for now, i'm away for alot of the weekend anyway, will report back if it works.

 

[Poag]

And the answer to that question is no.

I'm guessing they've auto applied it to your account if you had one before.

 

[Athan]
