Beta Weekend = No Installer Thus Far?

in Defiance

I got a beta key from a friend last week, applied it to my Trion account, it says I'm in the beta but now I've got to wait for some magical email that contains the installer file / link to install the game.

That was a good many hours ago, and from what my friends say the current install size of the game is around 10 gigs.. So uh yea Trion an email would be nice, it'd be nice to at least get the client downloaded.

    You should be able to log into your account http://trionworlds.com/en/ and manage games and click Defiance beta and then download the client.

    Nope, all I have are two opens to pre-order the game, or the deluxe edition of the game.

    I did some poking around on the official forums and I'm not the only one as well who applied a beta key, and never got a link to download the game. I wouldn't normally mind the wait but 10 GB is a hefty download, that itself is going to take some time.

    There's a link to the installer on their main site when you log in to your account. I downloaded the beta client yesterday through that.

    I've encountered the same issue apparently. Trion tells me I'm "enlisted" for the beta, but didn't get an invite and I get no download links anywhere on Trion's website. Kind of a shame ... would have liked to have had a chance to see what kind of first impression the game made on me before I decide wether or not to buy it.   I'm not typically a shooter guy, but sometimes I'm pleasantly surprised (Deus Ex comes to mind). Oh well. Though, from all the complaints about queues, it appears we probably haven't been missing much so far this weekend anyway.

    Same deal here. Cant test it out.

    CONGRATULATIONS Ark Hunter! You have successfully enlisted for Advance Mission Beta. If you are selected for one of these events you will be sent an email with your official invitation. Good luck!

    Being "enlisted" for the beta isn't the same thing as actually getting into the beta. It's pretty dirty semantics really.

    If your invited to the Beta, you'll have a download link on the Manage games area of your Trion account.

    Just being enlisted flags your account to be eligible, but it doesn't automatically put you into the beta. I found that to be pretty retarded and disappointing.

    Don't worry - your not missing a lot.
