Well, can't say you didn't give us enough warning to run! On a side note, this could be a positive thing. More of the kids and pedos from other games will undoubtedly be attracted to HKO, and leave the other games to those sensible among us who want to chop heads in peace

This is great news, I've been in all the beta's and a lot of the US players were asking when it will finally come to them, I suppose this means Open Beta is upon us soon!!
