Well, my master account and warhammer account have the same information, I didn't change anything yet it always kicks me out nomatter what the variation is.

I even tried using CAPS where it shows CAPS on my warhammer login (on the accounts page)  and for whatever reason it just won't let me connect to patch.  I try at least once or twice a day just to see if maybe they haven't started letting people patch yet.

I don't suppose this happens to everyone...

Seems there's quite a lot of confusion regarding beta,launch, peeps not getting their keys, EAstore being very unclear on the pre-order etc. etc.

Few more days and we we'll see how it all goes :)

Is there something wrong or is this what everyone is experiencing?

I'm not talking about playing the game I know the servers are not up or not open, I'm only talking about patching, it won't allow me to login to simply patch.... just don't want to find 1 days of patching ahead of me the day the beta finally arrives... it took me 15 hours to download the client, but it was from wi-fi heheh.... I'll play the game w/ a faster connection.

 

Beta Accounts must be upgraded to Master Account System.   If you have a Master Account then you should have a Warhammer Online Game Account underneath that Master Account.  If you try to login with the Master Account login id & password it won't work. 

Make sure that all your codes are properly tied to the Warhammer Online Game Account.  If they are you should have messages like Open Beta, Closed Beta Tester, Preview Weekend etc etc.

I dont remember if they send you a confirmation email but you should check your spam folders incase they did.

Well it says this:

Open Beta
Provides access to the Open Beta
Head Start
Provides access to the Head Start
GameStop Pre-Order
Includes: Rittenbach's Portable Camp and Sentinel's Amber Band

so yeah I did activate all of this stuff, but I see no difference between the master account and the war account they are one and the same from any angles I can see, and loging in to the master account it only says 'warhammer online', since I never 'made' a warhammer account I simply applied the codes to the master account, is my login the same as my master account login?

Same thing happening to me..... well if they were smart... they would open the patch servers now and be bombarded so they would at least be prepared and releave stress for the 7th... or maybe they simply don't have much patches to patch, has anyone here patched longer than a few seconds????

Hmm its either something weird or the only reason I can patch and login is because I was a previous CB Tester (not elder) & Preview Weekend Tester.

You won't be missing anything patch wise they're still working on a final version of a patch for Open Beta anyway..their patcher is pretty fast as long as you dont use dialup.

When I log in with my Master, I then see my Warhammer 'game' account which shows the add ons for the early start etc. The top of the account window has 'Account name' - Warhammer Online.

And while there is no patch to pick up atm, I can log on with the Warhammer Online account info and run through the 'patch' and then keep right on going.

The big/latest patch (4.1?) isn't live yet. I would guess Friday or worst case Saturday. Maybe they'll even be nice and open the doors ahead of schedule! (Probably not but it doesnt hurt (much) to hope!)
