That's the time server open beta server goes live, I hope they will unlock the files before so we can install and download all the patch.

So, the NDA has dropped?

Tell us all about the game while you're waiting.

Same here kid! I need a new mmo. I've been playing free 2 play lately because I dont want to start a new or re-activate an old game account. My WAR account expires da end of da month so if CO is good I will let it end and start CO.

You could have just said "I don't know."

Where's the fun in that?

I worked it out to be 6pm BST (GMT+1)

I hear you can download the Closed Beta client and the patch is 3.6gb apparently :(

This way u dont have to wait for unlock.

I dont think that is true if so where can u download it from? I just tried on Download Manager and it's still locked.

apparently this  http://files.champions-online.com/in...line_setup.exe

But its a bit useless now since by the time this finished downloading the beta will start. This link isnt tied to the download manager unlock thing.

That site no longer works now.

It works here.

It's on page 3 i think 3rd post down.

OK i thought i had the link in above post fixed..... guess not

Nope i tried and still dousent work.

I feel bad for you OB people. Fileplanet is slow as hell, and it's a 3.6GB patch on top of a slow 1.4GB client download. I already patched up from the closed beta client and it was only about another 466MB. In for a long day... Even though I'm ready I won't be able to log on until later unfortunately.

Everyone is assuming that the NDA is dropped since the game was announced as "gold", but there has been no official word yet. Hopefully the flood gates of information will open soon...

Yes the NDA is finally down

This nonsense is like an epidemic. Patch is NOT 3.6 GB!!!

Patcher shows the amount of game data to be patched. Patch can be as small as 500 MB. It will decompress and basically patch all game data files. That is why it shows 3.6 GB.

Why is everybody ignoring the other numbers it shows, e.g. the actual patch size??

Servers are set to start at 10:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM PST, that is 18:00 GMT to answer OP question.

Let's hope we will all be able to log in :)

Only took me 10 mins to download the 1.8gb download

I've never used this Fileplanet unlocking nonesense.

Does anyone know when the game is unlocked (1 PM), will I be able to transfer the installer files onto another PC, or is it limited to the PC I have the downloader on?
