I so wish I could be apart of the first beta launch sadly though since I was not apart of the first beta for EWOW I doubt I will be in this one.

You only have to wait another week if you aren't part of the beta testers.  I think we can manage

 

Anyway, we can see how many people end up with cancer before it is our turn.

Could you throw me a link to the groupings and the beta-timeline post? I pre-ordered the E:WoM, so I think that would put me somewhere on the beta-map yes?

We are very excited...and scared...to let people have it.

On the one hand, the beta will be more polished than our usual release-level games. But on the other hand, we don't know if people will like it or not.

I wonder if there's a lot of stuff that they haven't really talked about at all, or if we have a pretty good grasp of all the features already with the sneak peeks..

2 things are going to happen.  Were all going to love it, and the only threads being discussed are how awesome the game is, and bug reporting.  Or, were all going to hate it, and Stardock will never make another game EVER!

 

Either way, were all getting cancer, and be in chemo in 3 months.

Two days and the snow that has halted my town from functioning is supposed to be gone right when this beta launches. Bad timing.

Man... this beta is AWESOME!!!!  Been playing it for a few days now and just can't stop.  Wait--9 days?  Have you guys not gotten it yet??  <grin>

Same here--dying for the beta to make its release.  I just browsed the actual FE "marketing" page, and boy... it looks to be so awesome and the spells are FINALLY getting to where they should be.  Lots of logic in the execution (a spellcaster that wears plate armor?  Gimme a break).  This game is starting to look like it was made by the guys who made GALACTIC CIVILIZATIONS and SINS OF A SOLAR EMPIRE.  Some of the best games EVER made for a PC.

BTW--as to  he first post, I was trying to figure out where the distribution was to occur, too.  Thus, I send Stardock a message and got a reply in like 5 mins.  Here is the reply I received:

 

Hello,

The beta is going to release this week and you are still eligible for the download, it will appear here: https://store.stardock.com/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=/myaccount/products

Just login to your Stardock account here and the game will load up in your account to download.

As for any news regarding the game, we will post anything about its release here: http://www.elementalgame.com/

Let me know if you have any other questions.

 

Hope this helps!
