Just wondering if anyone Knows what Broke causing a delay Because info said the Beta Stated invites were going out today there was a lot of traffic on the forums But it looks like things got scrapped for today any ways. Maybe tomorrow. Then there was the many issues with the System Profiler app some had issues with. I only had security issue when ran windows blocked it. I simply hit more info brought a choice to run anyways. the Profiler ran but I think missed a few things Like 32 bit system or 64bit also what kind of devices besides Microphone I think it should of included the controllers being used.

Hope this lack of professionalism isnt a sign of things to come.
An informed community is happy (well as happy as anybody can be on the internet)
community. Maybe I shouldve changed happy to placated:)

I wouldnt think that anyone other than the staff and devs know, Probably not even worth asking.

"Lack of professionalism"

You're stupid for saying this is a lack of professionalism, problems can and will occur. On top of that, they don't have to do squat when it comes to closed beta as they're still developing the game. Players are meant to play the final product, not the unfinished. The only reason they are letting players in is to figure out the lowest settings can go and to let players find things they possibly missed or have no found yet.

No, he isn't "stupid" for saying what he said. It isn't professional. It takes 30 seconds, if that, to make a forum post informing us what's going on with the invites.

That said, we aren't entitled to that information. That doesn't make his point any less valid.

Incorrect, beta invites could have gone out today." For greater clarity closed beta starts today! we will be inviting users as soon as tomorrow." I don't see anywhere in that quote that says in stone, ' all beta invites will be done tomorrow '. The dev;s at PGI are people too, and not everything goes to plan all the time.

Keep it clean, both of you.

Beta testing is beta testing. Things go wrong or unplanned occurances happen. It is part of the experience and part of the process. Might not happen today, might have to be pushed back a month.

[Slystone]

You would think they would say if they went out. Maybe yesterdays quote" closed Beta has basically started now, invites go out tomorrow" is all we get. something like that was said anyway.

[Arafinar]

Stupid? really? what do you call a complete lack of communcation, not making a dead line set ,no matter
what problems they are have giong on (unless they have no internet or Godzilla is trompin around in Canada)?
I call it unproffesional. When I cant make a deadline Im on the phone asap to placate customers or potential ones.
Oh hell just looked at youre profile, Only 20 doubt ya really know what proffesionalism is.
So there ya Ill just chalk your post up to ignorance:)

[That Guy]

Has it occurred to you that you simply did not make the first draft? what evidence do you have that there is trouble with beta release?

and those lucky few could already be neck deep helping to establish the minimum system requirements.

quite a thought, eh?

Again, they don't have to inform you of anything. They could have stayed completely silent until the game was finished and released in their eyes.

There's no lack of professional anything in this whole situation. It's called you didn't get what you want, so you try to blame someone.

Yeah, I believe I mentioned that.

[Wolfe Ryatt]

No beta invites for yous!!!

[omega5 9er]

I the beta release is postponed, it's postponed.
If the Beta invites went out, how would we even know about it? Anyone who was stupid enough to say, "I GOT INTO BETA!" on the forums would be deleted by admins, and possibly have their beta taken away.
I imagine only a few thousand invites will go out the first time. NOT EVERYONE WILL GET IN AT ONCE.

Many have waited a decade. We can wait another day for an official comment from Piranha.

[Sporkosophy]

Yep, this is a drama thread, inb4lock.

[VarietyOfCells]

This forum has its share of angry pointless threads, but this one takes the cake in my opinion.

It's hard because everyone's hopes were raised so high yesterday. But we all just need to calm down and accept that we probably won't be playing beta until we pay for it in July.
