Thats good!

Still hoping for a Euro/UK servers, but if not i'll be looking at whatever is availible.

Hopefully we'll get a final say if there will be any other servers before inception goes to sales.

Also, if we purchace Inception would the bonuses be locked to certain servers or would data be shared accross all servers?

So everyone else now will say "Yay!" Too bad enough of them will still post about being NA only.

If you have a forum profile (a 'Pilot') you're in the pool for Beta once you go to your profile, and select the 'Beta' checkmark.

Thanks for explaining

*fingers crossed*

I know there are still some shakedowns to go through, but I really hope a set of recommended system specs are realeased before Operation Inception is over. I want to be able to jump in instead of having to download the game and then frantically run the the store to pick up more hardware.

Wait, so you buy it on the 19th and then time travel back in time 2 days to play the closed beta? :D


Since you left it out.

I wonder how many users are going to get invited in the first batch. I would imagine that they will invite people in phases for stress testing ect.

Another question that creeps to mind: is our reserved pilot nick just for the NA server or does it also apply to future servers?

The system profiler took the whole of about 2 seconds to profile my machine... definitely took far longer to run than to check the hardware. Then you just copy and paste the info, and you are ready to go.


Agh, I guess I'll have to do that when I get home. My GPU is being RMA'd so hopefully they don't penalize me for not having my better card in :-/

Signing up for Closed Beta is putting your name into a pool. We will be selecting a set number of people from that pool. The Founders program is the only way to guarantee you'll be in Closed Beta. Everyone else is kind of in a lottery. I like to think of it as the Hunger Games! ;)

I'm moving house in a few weeks. Damn...

If the admins see this, if my name get's pulled for closed beta, reroll and draw someone else, who can actually use the access.

So if someone in another region was to pay for the early access would we be able to access the US servers during beta and then take our accounts ove to our own resepective regions at launch?
