You are preaching to the choir friend. We are all waiting on the day Aventurine announces open beta for DFO.

"You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity." |
While I agree that DF could silence the Critics by doing something like an Open Beta, I don't know if going about it the way Eidos/FC/AoC are doing is the right choice.
While it was widely known how the Beta would work, you STILL get an outcry of rage about the way it is handled.
So, Open Beta, yes, but maybe set it up differently. |

What part of this (taken from the Official Letter) do you not understand? |

yep, you are right. After we saw the lil' EIDOS/Fileplanet/Funcom stunt today with their lil' 13 level open beta test with the NDA still in tact, I don't think Aventurine would stoop that low. They promised their fans try before you pay a penny, so I doubt they'd do something like that.

Originally posted by ShanniaAgree, as I said, on most things you said. Just please, refrain from the assumptions that the NDA will be left in place for the whole test. Because that is not true (according to what we know).
I am not defending FC/Eidos's decision on how to run the Beta, I just like to have the facts straight. |
