Previews R Us

Posted by Stropp on September 5, 2008

Just saw an announcement from the Warhammer Online Herald that they are holding another preview weekend, called Preview Weekend+, for all the players who participated in the preview weekend two weeks ago.

According to the announcement the PW+ dates are Friday the 5th and Saturday the 6th of September. Considering that Open Beta starts on the 7th, the nice people at Mythic are giving us an extra couple of days.

My guess is that the particular bugs that caused so much embarrassment for Mythic on the first preview weekend have been fixed, and that Mythic is handing us a small reward for putting up with them.

I don’t think I’ll thrash the game so much this time. I’ll definitely be logging in around 5 hours from now (if it starts at the same time as before) and spending some time this weekend. Unfortunately, I’m busy at the moment and can’t spare much time.

I wasn’t planning on doing much during OB anyway. I will be waiting until the head start before I dive in fully. The OB for me is to get a feel for the game, not to create and become attached to a character that will be deleted at release.

I guess I should go patch the client.

    Well well well, things are definately shaping up nicely for WARs release. Im currently downloading the Open Beta client as we speak, i managed to beg, borrow and steal an open beta code and also I joined a guild (Insult to Injury) cant wait.

    With the beta I plan to spend most of it as a greenskin, altho will give the Witch Hunter a quick run out to see if im gonna like it
