Closed Beta Update

Raviolay · 2013-09-19 08:37:46 UTC

[QUOTE=Bloodbite;471474]I understand you’re reasoning, but I don’t think maps need to stay in the ‘alpha’ phase, not for the overall game anyways. They’ll be building new ones over time while the game is out and, hopefully, thriving so I think the focus on map issues can wait. The MOBA side of it though I agree, it still is hard to embrace totally, but it may very well be a balancing thing. There are enough characters in the rotation now to offer a proper taste-test of what types of balancing concerns will have to be factored in for the future.

Now that we’re locked into character skills rather than what we’d all consider the traditional Enemy Territory class/leveling system, the same movement expectations may not apply any more as the best-choice. I for one am starting to feel like perhaps I’d like to move a lot faster on the battlefield than right now. Possibly at a twitch pace for movement and weapon swaps/reloads/sights… or maybe it’s just a phase I’m going through [/QUOTE]

TBH I think they should get rid of the infinite sprint and have different mercs have varying sprint distances and speed, to define them more as individuals rather then classes. However that would require more balancing so that’s again not likely to happen. Also I feel it would need some form of strafe jump like Call of Duty 4’s to supplement it, otherwise it would be too slow. Apparently strafe jumping is bad though and would be a demand to ask for it.

Is it possible to play also outside the US with an Nexon America account?

acutepuppy · 2013-09-20 03:22:23 UTC

Nexon America is an international service :]

Protekt1 · 2013-09-20 04:59:34 UTC

What is happening regarding the NDA? Is it going to extend to closed beta?

TracyJackson · 2013-09-20 05:19:58 UTC

Hmm, possibly. But I do hope not, but it probably will.

NHLfan · 2013-09-20 05:49:42 UTC

I guess that depends on the game, then…

FireWater · 2013-09-20 06:00:02 UTC

Closed beta is much more difficult to control ndas with, just on the sheer volume of players. It’s not impossible but I would be surprised if they tried

Nail · 2013-09-20 06:51:15 UTC

I think the closed beta won’t introduce thousands of new players, probably a hundred or so to start, afaik, initially it’s to test the switch to Nexon servers and their backend

shaftz0r · 2013-09-20 07:06:38 UTC

please add some NA players

2 Days before CB

Kl3ppy · 2013-09-29 14:53:03 UTC

why? there are enough but only couple of them is playing, so dont add more ppl who dont play

BomBaKlaK · 2013-09-29 14:56:59 UTC

this was the last update before CB ? Did you start the CB with this version ?
I’m a bit afraid if you start with the actual weapon settings.

i dont think its a problem as long it will be fixed asap even in CB
i think the “CB” is more for joining nexon to the story.

i think the game should be 100% for open beta or for the realse [without open beta] cuz FREE 2 PLAY game has ONLY ONE CHANCE and its when it comes out and ppl try it. if it comes out to public incomplete dont be surprised for “combat arms 2”.

True, look at the mess that happened with SWTOR … I don’t think we gonna have tons of new players right now, just enough to get more ECHO data

BomBaKlaK · 2013-09-30 01:21:53 UTC

Pew Pew Pew Pew !

Finko · 2013-09-30 06:29:27 UTC

Good question, i have Nexon account, can i play it outside US and EU, from Russia for example?

[QUOTE=badman;470660]Update: CB Starts 1/10, Migration on 30/9

As noted in Nexon’s announcement, the Closed Beta will officially begin on 1 October. Founders will get immediate access on September 30 - this is the day the migration tool will come online.[/QUOTE]
Any idea at what time the migration tool is going on line? I’m going to be away for a while starting tomorrow, just like to make sure this administrivia is out of the way before that…:o

badman · 2013-09-30 14:16:44 UTC

As noted here, we’ve hit a snag and the Closed Beta along with the migration will not be going ahead today. More info to come.

Kl3ppy · 2013-10-01 08:56:16 UTC

I said it already in the other thread: A 2 week delay doesnt look like “just” a migration problem. I hope SD doesnt get rushed by their “partners”
