In that case maybe I'll be able to crank up the eye candy a bit. I'm probbaly being a bit harsh on my PC anyway, it isn't too shoddy.

Got one! Signed up for the closed beta as well :}

So hows it looking Tezz? Any good?

Just got this in an email...

I'm not even going to bother with this. I do wonder if tezz actually played it however.

I think Tezz meant he got an email conformation, rather than a key.

Aaah.

Anyone managed to play this then?

I dont think so, its still in the F&F stage and doesn`t look like it`ll be going to beta anytime soon

Considering it was due for release sometime about now it is quite disconcerting that beta and ultimately the final release has been pushed back quite so far.
On the other hand it is good that the devs are being so meticulous? about getting all the bugs ironed out even before beta, then again what is so big that it stops a beta?

I think it's a good thing that they delayed it. They did release a statement saying the closed beta revealed something game-breakingly wrong and that they wanted to fix it. Many companies would have papered over it and released it anyway. My only concerns now are that the company doesn't run out of funding before it gets released, and that it doesn't turn into a game of catchup trying to make it look like the game isn't a year old on release.
