Hey folks,

when is the Beta supposed to start? Steam doesn't state an exact date, which kinda sucks. And where's the big PR boost that was supossed to happen in August? Nothing has been posted yet regarding any PR and it's already the 3rd August.

Apart from that great job you did there. Got the DDE for only 35

That's why I'm asking xD

And how will we get to know it starks aka. where do we get the BETA keys from? eMail to the Steam account or eMail to the paypal account which purchased ROHOS?

Also I read about registering RO Ostfront to get some badges. Where can I do that?

From what's been said so far, reading between the lines they are behind schedule on some things, so it's pointless constantly pestering about stuff like this becuase asking for it won't make it happen any quicker if they're already working at full stretch to get all the things done that they feel they need to do pre-release.
Do you think they dont know they need to do publicity and the beta? :rolleyes:

To be honest, I've been playing RO for 7 years now and waiting for RO2 for a good few of those - waiting another couple of weeks to get my fat grubby hands on the Beta isn't going to bother me.

As long as I know I'm getting some Beta action, I don't care ;)

Watch them give it to me an hour before the full-release now..

Its like a dog getting ready to go outside for a walk, they just cant wait so he starts jumping around on all fours breathing heavily saying, play beta, play beta, play beta.

I am sure it will be out soon :D just pre order like a lot of us did and you are in for sure.

O yea, and when you pre order it. You get the game name in you're library saying " Red Orchestra 2 ". When the Beta is out, I am sure it will show up on the Library saying " Red Orchestra 2 Beta " or somthing

Closed beta is next week at a hunch.

A dev said that you will get access a lot sooner which sounds more than 1 weeks but not quite 3. =) You can only guess. Relax. Enjoy what other people have to say in teh forums.

I preordered somewhen yesterday evening so no worries :p DDE ftw.

I was really pleased with TWI over the years. All the dedication and support to their games and the great overall quality. No big developer studio can actually compete with them and I'm serious about that one. Those big studios just develop the same cr*p all over again and release it for 60

beta code 27.08.11
server ready 28.08.11
beta start 29.08.11

The purpose of Beta , is getting feedback from players so they can Fix Bugs or edit / tweak other settings...

Releasing beta on the 29th , and actual game release on 30th would be kinda pointless , would it ?

What you posted there , is probably a date for Pre-orders to Start Downloading , to avoid Huge lags and download problems when the game launches.

I`m hoping that ,,Pre-order`` beta would start up to 10th of August.

I've never seen a beta come out hours before a full release. I've always had at least a week when bug-hunting, although it wasn't always looking for fixes in time for full-release, more post-release patches.

To be fair though, we should just be happy we're getting early access to RO2 - even the full release is less than 4 weeks away now :)

Stress Testing is usually done in Alpha... Beta is for feedback and bugs normally
