Public beta?

hobbitrjw · 03-12-2017, 03:15 PM

I've seen on the forums that the beta will be avaliable on match 20th however the email I recieved stated a date of march 17th. So are the emails providing accurate information?

thorpegiovanni · 03-12-2017, 03:17 PM

Probably any day between those dates when the game is ready for public release.

I am checking my email .... got me thinking HMMMM.

r0nster · 03-12-2017, 06:57 PM

well blow me down it DOES say March 17th WOW and I missed that .... GOOD EYE out there

r0nster · 03-12-2017, 07:00 PM

I got to thinking it would be normal as the pre-orders USUALLY get the download links on a Friday

Man I am loving this more and more was thinking March 20th now its the 17th WOOHOO that's what I get for listening to others and not reading it myself

The pre order page says March 20th though so why are the emails giving us a date of March 17th? Can we get a official ruling from the staff?

I am going with the 17th. Too bad but there goes the NCAA watch fest.

Play on a laptop and you can still watch NCAA that's what I will be doing

I pre-ordered about an hour ago and the email said the beta would be available March 20.

Lukas Berger · 03-13-2017, 11:08 AM

We had a typo on the confirmation email that said the 17th, but the correct date is the 20th.

We sent an email out today to anyone who got the email with the incorrect date to update them on that.

Sorry for all the confusion

You just "HARSHED" my weekend buzz

Mondays are my absolute worst days for doing anything other than work as I have city council meetings every Monday night

So Tuesday the 21st it is for me, not much of a bonus for preordering but you know "first world" problems

Agreed, like you said, it is a first world problem, but the change from Friday beta release to Monday is a buzzkill.

That's why I bought the March 17th date ... tradition had to be broken lol

On the plus side, it's a couple more days to iron out some last wrinkles; it will be in much better shape Monday than it would on Friday.

In the meantime are there any chances of us getting more road to release information about Tournaments,etc? Seems like the Road to release pits areally slow coming. With 7 days to public beta 11 to full release

Sorry but how could you typo March 17th instead of the 20th? And this date wasn't in just one place. Come on now.
