    I'd also like to continue to participate, tested a bunch with multiple devices with TestFlight, but missed the switch to Google until a week or so ago. I added the email address I'd used previously for testing to my separate Google+ account, nothing's come through in terms of an invite. Feels weird to publicly ask on the forum like this, but there doesn't seem to be any other recourse. I suppose I could just wait for the full version to be released, but I'd felt I was helping and providing useful info, and would prefer to continue to do so...

    Ok, I see part of the issue here. There's a pre-existing Baldur's Gate Google+ community. That one is not the one that the Beta is being run on. The beta community is not searchable from Google+ (that I could find), so there doesn't appear to be a way for people to request to join the beta via Google+ at least.

    There is not as mentioned by another forumite here, so @Dee and/or whomever, hovercraftdriver@gmail.com would get one more eager tester into the fray :-)

    i got invite, for now i've installed game on my FunTab 7, and .... can't play, background in game is missing, i can only see characters ( like my hero or cows :D) i can move, talk, but all is in black,...

    I do not know FunTab 7, but maybe you could check that you have the latest build. The first build I downloaded from Google Play had the same problems for me (on Huawei Ascend G700). The background graphic was missing in menu & game, I saw parts of GUI, characters & smoke animations. I wrote it in Google community, nobody answered, but after downloading the update from Google Play (again 1.1 GB - but on Wifi it goes quite quickly) the graphic was okay & I finished the test without problems. My guess is that they did test the first build only only on the most widely used tablets (it seems that people with Samsung & Google devices had not these problems) and only in update fixed it for more "exotic" devices.
    yes i have latest build, i have info from another FunTab 7 tester, and he has same black screens :(
    i saw your post on Google community, and first thing i have done was checking for available update :P

    Hi, please send me an invite to test: mjmcc88@gmail.com
    I have several devices and have purchased this game on PC to support you guys, but I'm waiting to play it on Android. Want to do anything I can to speed up the process.

    No word from devs. Seems like the move to Google+ has become a very exclusive beta group. :)
  • FaydarkFaydark Member Posts: 279
    Not much happening on the Google+ group either. Most of the activity was on the first day or two, with people joining and getting the download done, reporting initial results and bugs.

    Kindle Fire users are no longer able to test as I suspected without rooting our devices. I was so happy to have support, but I guess it makes sense.

    Nothing makes sense on this beta-testing.

    Yeah, an unrooted kindle can't access google play services, but it shouldn't stop it from being released in the amazon market place later though.

    He ya! Would love an invite too: sonik.mh@gmail.com ,)
  • dethbringredethbringre Member Posts: 18
    So is the beta for android still going on? Or has this been back burnered again? I know they had some testflight issues it looks like, but is it back on or...?
  • sepottersepotter Member Posts: 367
    @dethbringre Yes, it's back on in the google play store right now... still some bugs needing squashed, but it's definitely making progress, it seems.
  • IamTaoIamTao Member Posts: 6
    Wouldn't know. I seem to have been dropped, even though I have a Google+ account ... It would have been nice if the accepted list carried over.
  • LcacdriverLcacdriver Member Posts: 41
    @Dee @Beamdog @whomever else is listening....this is really getting to be ridiculous. I manage 75 people and if I went a day, much less days or weeks without communicating with them, the majority would walk and the others wouldn't be productive and my business would fold. I understand we are not employees here, but the premise holds true just the same. We aren't in your shoes and I know the daily grind is overwhelming at times, but it only takes a minute to post something, a status of some kind. Can that really be too much to ask?

    We're setting things up. In the mean-time, I've given the TestFlight contact list another pass, so if you were a beta tester on TestFlight and you have a Google+ account with the same email address you should have access to the build on Google Play.
  • IamTaoIamTao Member Posts: 6
    Thanks for the info, Dee. I saw that about an hour after you posted and updated my TestFlight email. Not sure if that drops me out or not now. Either way, we really appreciate the communication. :-)

  • LcacdriverLcacdriver Member Posts: 41
    While not afraid to raise the BS flag, I also give due when due, so thanks @Dee for the update...very much appreciated. BTW, didn't use gmail for testflight, but gave gmail above :-)

    How to download beta?
  • sonikmhsonikmh Member Posts: 5
    Oh snap, I have registered with different email! %-) And I'd love to continue with the testing. @Dee‌ any chance of including me and others in this thread with the same issue? ,)

    I wish I could beta test this. I've only played the game countless times since its release when I was a wee lad of only twelve years. Sixteen years later and it's still all I think about.
