Check your email - BETA IS HERE!
Anyone else get in on this?
Looks like its only a 3 hour event...
Here's all they sent me:
Greetings, New Tester!
The next Tech Test is upon us and you are hereby invited to join the ranks of the mighty and powerful Tech Testers!
This Tech Test will be a major stress test for our servers and hardware and we will need your help to make sure we get the data we need. Multiple servers will be running during the test, so choose the one you like, then log in, play normally, and have a good time. We’ll also be conducting a test of the tradepost system while this is underway.
You’ll find that we’ve given you a neat little clickable ability that will let you access the tradepost. Once you’ve reached level 5 or so, finished the first part of Tortage, and have a pocket full of tin, we need you to have some fun with the tradepost and the bank. Buy and sell items, armor, weapons, and so on, and move your gear around your bank and inventory like you’re digging through your vast stash of loot.
This Tech Test will take place at 5PM GMT on Sunday, 6 April 2008 and will run for three hours. For what that means in your local time, please see this link.
You will need to create an account at * using this key: *
Once your account is set up, you will be able to download and install the client.
Please note we do patch regularly and we expect a rush to the patch servers on Sunday. Therefore we encourage you to install and patch up now to make sure you’re ready to go on the day of the Tech Test. Also we strongly recommend checking the forums for information on new patches regularly before the test so you can be prepared.
It’s important to note that since this is a stress test, we anticipate there being crashes, server resets, and less than ideal performance.
For the latest news on the tech test, you can always find the latest information on the beta forums at *. We also encourage you to leave your feedback there at the conclusion of the test.
Please let us know if you will be participating in this test:
Yes, I plan to participate
No, I do not plan to participate
Thank you again for your time and dedication. There would be no Age of Conan without you!
Regards,
Funcom

Re: Check your email - BETA IS HERE!
There was no NDA info on that page so it seemed ok to post it.
As i understand it, the tech testers accounts will only be activated for the three hours, or they'll just simply take the servers down. Either way, all i know as of now is that ill be playing for 3 hours on sunday. And the NDA strictly says no voicing opinions of the game outside the beta forums. But ill see what i can do about sharing my experiance w/ you guys.

No e-mail invite as of yet
I'm glad one of us here at TG gets to test. Getting input from the best AOC Guild is always beneficial

I got one. I'm in the tech for Sunday. Never did get a General Beta key even though I applied way in the beginning of the beta last year... oh well, this will be interesting at least.

Re: Check your email - BETA IS HERE!
I got a technical beta invite. I'm sure it won't be all that glamorous since it is a technical beta. So expect some ugly graphics.
