Won't be buying until the the pricing on paypal is sorted out..as a Brit I'm not paying 189.99 euros (£160.67/$253.89) for something that should only be costing me 149.65 euros (£126.55/$199.99)
cyyrith @ Feb 9th, 2013 12:48PM
any beta sign up links keep routing back to the home page. and seriously? $200?? that screams 'we are going broke, so we're using exclusive access to a classic fantasy character (drizzt)'s race to draw people in and give us all their money'.
breyugar @ Feb 9th, 2013 12:03PM
What the feck, $199.99 for the founders pack, ok no problem thats like £126 give or take, paypal want to charge 189.99 euros thats £160
breyugar
also your forum is shit and just cut off half my post...bravo
sabremmxi @ Feb 9th, 2013 11:44AM
um... I remember back when I bought the Raiderz founders pack it said that you also get access to the Neverwinter BETA???
mok33
Correct, but it's not until the 2nd and 3rd beta weekend. Check the forums.
playbloodix @ Feb 9th, 2013 10:04AM
Can have I a key for beta?
omegcrash @ Feb 9th, 2013 8:50AM
Life Time subscriber to Startrek online and suppose to get a closed beta key...... still have yet to receive and they don't respond. I hate when companies lie to sell products and don't follow through. Who else is having similar issues
deadmanswrath
first weekend beta is for founders and those who they give the friend key to, the second beta weekend in march is for STO lifetime members to join in on. Check out the beta announcements and you'll find this information quite easily. See you in Faerun.

You'd know the answer to this omegcrash if you had checked the forums.

This seems to be the beginning of the end for NeverWinter....games like BG and NWN were never designed to be MMO for the same reasons that real-life D
lookn4me44 @ Feb 8th, 2013 9:07PM
Why even bother? Its evident that unless you spend a lot of $$ for the stupid founders pack, you don't have a prayer of beta access... Game will probably suck balls anyway....
drizzit96 @ Feb 8th, 2013 8:42PM
This sucks I applied to this years ago and still haven't been accepted. Doesn't loyalty mean anything! :'(
blindshot77 @ Feb 8th, 2013 7:05PM
FREE BETA ACCESS?? true story >>> http://mmo.rokzon.com/Neverwinter_Free_Beta_Key.html <<< however, I purchased the neverwinter issue online for like $9, (beta access issue) #236 but still...
docmirror @ Feb 8th, 2013 3:56PM
I have not received any key...I bought a founder pack...this sucks
atoh
Just so you know, I purchases the founder's pack as well and got no code, BUT it still attached the code to my account and I was able to download and enter the game once it was done. Hope this helps!
mysteriona @ Feb 8th, 2013 3:34PM
Is the control wizard class playable during this beta weekend??? I need to know the answer to this before i purchase a pack. If im paying 60 bucks i would like to access the class i used in alpha.
muddersmilkyum
Nope, no wizard available thgis beta, or at least not so far, anyway.
merlin420id @ Feb 8th, 2013 3:25PM
so far, so good, tried all three toons, so far like the cleric the best
peterjee @ Feb 8th, 2013 1:49PM

mok33
There's a bunch of beta streams going on right now. Check them out, it might help you make up your mind.
purpleorbes @ Feb 8th, 2013 1:15PM
does anyone have a extra beta key? PLEASE help me out if you do. Im dying here.
mxmissile1 @ Feb 8th, 2013 12:52PM
download link is grayed out
dndxan @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:50AM
the game access will start in 10 minutes from this post!!
fazemladaiya @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:50AM
Okay it appears from reading this thread that no one is referring to the forums for the start times. In order to point you all in the right direction . . . http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?39201-Global-Beta-Start-Time-List If all goes according to schedule, the Beta IDEALLY will start in approximately 10 minutes from the time I make this post. I hope this helps alleviate some confusion.
fazemladaiya
Forgot to mention - yes, this means until the servers go live you WILL be getting the message that you are not allowed to play. That is because there is nothing to play yet, as the servers are not yet live.
dndxan
lol we posted at the same time!
tilidus @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:41AM
Got my answer. Ty,gonna wait
dumitrie05 @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:37AM
Bought the $60 pack, downloaded the game, logined and did the updates, click played, went to login again and it tells me "You can not play at this time." Seriously I'm suppose to have Beta access.
dumitrie05
Oh, my bad "I'm not ALLOWED to play at this time." Again Seriously
faustmourn
ya i know this is BS. I also am suposed to have access, and got the same answer.......Sux
tilidus @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:32AM
Guys,is it working already? Couse am still thinking about buying this pack...
asmodeeux @ Feb 8th, 2013 11:20AM
still waiting for BETA!!!!
breztel @ Feb 8th, 2013 10:21AM
As usual for these MMO's the company thinks that they do not need to keep their "Bread and Butter" informed. Paid 200.00 to get treated like a diseased soul.
tarshier @ Feb 8th, 2013 9:36AM
Sigh, bought my founders pack Thursday night (yeah I know late) still no email with my key and can't get the download started. Guess I will miss out after all, at least I got my in game items reserved.
fazemladaiya
As stated around the site, no key will come to you. I purchased last night as well. Email confirmed my purchase . . . that was all that was needed. Then the "Buy Now" link on this page turned to "Download". If you can download, you know you are good to go XD
fazemladaiya
Oops. I just re-read your post and saw where you said you could not start the download. I'd definitely email them on that one. And I'd verify the charge went through on my card. I was able to download the moment I purchased. I used PayPal for mine. Not sure if that makes a difference or not.
