They are starting the stress test tommorow, so theres a shitload of keys available.
It is first come first served, mind, so grab em while you can. Head over to fileplanet to get em.

Let the Evil commence!

got it

Downloading it now.

I got a key, but the client's too big to bother downloading (and transferring home) for the sake of a couple of days when I've got other stuff to play. I can give the key to anyone if they run out.

There's a good preview of the game here

Took me a couple of hours, so i stuck it on and went to watch a film.

After playing for a few hours I can report that its...well, CoH, with more dark bits. Quite good though, especially enjoying the mastermind class.

Anyone suffering issues with freezing: I had to roll back to the 5.6 catalyst drivers for the thing to get past character creation. Also, expect heavy lag, theres a billion and one people in there. I did manage to lessen the lag by fiddling with the graphics settings, even though it looked for all the world like network lag. Wierd, but there you go.

Anyone else find the lag goes much worse if you look south west?

gah!! i made the silly mistake of pausing the download just over a quarter of the way through, then realised it wouldnt continue downloading (i paused it to play CSS) now i gotta sit in que again

my download is now going backwards!!! i think this game doesnt want me to play it!! anyone got any other places its downloadable from?

So, there seems to be quite a number of you chaps playing/getting this. Anyone fancy grouping up in to some form of 5punk supergroup?

Once I work out how to do it, of course.

ok, i downloaded, let it do all the updated, when i click the i accept button and it loads, i just get a black screen this supposed to happen?

I quite like the sound of being an evil mastermind. I may look into this.

I think it's quite good. Definitely interested in forming a 5punk evil supergroup. Char name is Khonal (I think, I keep forgetting how I spelt it)

Well, you need to be level 10 to start a group, apparently. Im getting there though :D

I can hover now. Go me.
