It will be open from tomorrow (Wednesday 13th) and run for ten days until next Friday (Friday 22nd).

Have fun!

Nice one, I'll be sure to post on the forums. I am currently having a small issue on Windows 7- the intro movie throttles the CPU and skips, I have to move the window with the mouse to get it to stop!

Working fine for me and I'm using Windows 7.

Game looks great and very easy to play, I can see myself on this for hours, I'm having great fun with it

Great work Jamie :cool:

Characters will be wiped between the CBT and the OBT in June, and after that there will be no further character wipes. If you reach level 20, your names will be kept.

I hope everyone is having fun, and it would be great to see some Irish guilds in the game

Thanks

Jamie

Only one more level to go, guess I will be spending another few hours on it today

CutzEr · 18-05-2009 4:27pm

..We don't even get anything to show for it? We'll just have to do this all over again? Why are you wiping it? What's the point?

I'd rather they didn't wipe it.

@ Jamie: If you reach level 20 will your level be kept also ?

spooky donkey · 26-05-2009 3:37pm
