Hellgate: some work left to do

From the looks of the servers in the closed beta, this is more a beta for Hanbitsoft to work out their issues with the game than for players to actually PLAY the game.  I'd wait till open beta to check out real gameplay.

    Eh, why play a closed beta (that just started) then??

    You do know what the words "closed beta" means right?

    If WoW = The Beatles
    and WAR = Led Zeppelin
    Then LotrO = Pink Floyd

    Little frustrating, i thought i could test it even 1 seconde during this cbt week end ^^

     

    I wonder how it is on their side : does the expert technician got their knuckles rapped by their superior or all is going as expected ^^

     

    ps : server up right now lol

    This thread is redundant. The idea of signing up for a beta and actually playing the beta is to find bugs. NOT play the game just for fun. Don't whine, for starters it's 100% free, second it's CLOSED BETA.

    In defense of the complainers it was damn near impossible to even log in yesterday. Today was much improved.

    Wow, I haven't had any problems today at all.

    I had problems the first day, couldn't log in, got the same error again and again. I was on the verge of giving up, until to my surprise I could log in and play.

     

    And it was awesome image

    Just played a few hours, no bugs so far except for 2 disconnects. I'll go back after a few hours and give it another try.

    Anybody knows how long this beta will last?

    This one's over Sunday sometime. Hopefully since the game has been released in other countries for quite some time now future betas will be short and full NA release will come about quickly.

    Congratulations, that means that the beta test was success and every beta test did its job - that is to test the aspect of the game that needed to be improved and thus it got improved.

    Closed betas are not something you do for fun, does not matter if term "closed beta" started to get used for pure PR purposes sometimes. Closed beta is a test. Its a stress-test combined with bug-searching.

    Beta testers found an issue with game(multiple ones, actually) and the company so far was quite fast to react to them and to update everyone on the progress of fixing. IMO, that means CBT succeeded.
