    @elminster ... Are you a testing *gulp* IWDEE? as we speak? For clarity's sake (lovely girl) I wish to ask again...

    Anduin can disclose he is not testing as we speak read...

    He is one sad mummified corpse...

    EDIT: Just realised it is a minefield to disclose you are a beta tester, as everyone will badger you for information. So maybe... If your a weak willed ninny... keep it to yourself... Aaaaah! The complexities! THE COMPLEXITIES!!!

    Actually I was working on beating Throne of Bhaal with an evil playthrough I'm doing (in the BG2EE beta). I'm just about to kill Melissan :)

    Most of my testing of IWDEE has been for HoW. I'm also in the process of testing all the spells in the game.

    Also lovely girl? I'm a dude.

    I kind of already said I was beta testing it weeks ago. If people want to badger me for information well...they won't get any info about the game that hasn't already been mentioned to the public :)
    Will there be badgers? ;)

    HoF squirrels are comparable to honey badgers.
    Ouch!

    @Varwulf‌ So did I, which is something I wasn't expecting. I'll have to uninstall the IWD/HoW/TotLM I have at the house to give myself a clean slate, as well as put my current games on hold.

    I too was caught very much by surprise. Good luck on your clean slate though :)

    I didn't get an invite. I hope I wasn't excluded from the beta. The only one of my friend's who are interested in this game got invited and now wants to test out the multiplayer with me.

    @ForgottenMyth‌ You're more than welcome :)

    @Dragonfolk2000‌ Maybe something for you to check as well

    I got an e-mail leading to the NDA. I signed it last night before work. Hopefully I'll get a response soon with a code to download it.

    @Dragonfolk2000

    You need to reply to the email saying you have signed the NDA.
  • Dragonfolk2000Dragonfolk2000 Member Posts: 390
    Yeah, I just realized that. It's taken care of.

    Apparently you have to be 18 to consent to a NDA. I was a beta tester for an hour or so. :/
  • meaglothmeagloth Member Posts: 3,806
    @CrevsDaak‌ I guess you don't need to feel to bad about not preordering.

    Yea. I was actually able to download it and play before somebody remembered. I still have the app open, I have since Wednesday. I'm just minimizing it overnight.
    I'm actually curious to what this means legally. If I can't legally consented the NDA, but in got the game anyway, does that mean I can post whatever I want without breaking the contract?(I want to make it clear I would never do that just cause I could- not only for the obvious ban ability of this offense but I wouldn't do that anyway; I'm just curious)
    @bengoshi‌ @mlnevese‌ you guys are lawyers, right?

    @meagloth Not a good idea.. it would still be illegal, even if you had access to the game by a developer error. And depending on your country it would be your parents who would have to pay for any damage caused.

    Ok. That makes sense. Like I said, I would not do that anyway.

    I wish I would have got an invitation to the beta
  • RamzaRamza Member Posts: 114
    I'm sure more invitations will go out with each new beta build. Keep your fingers crossed.

    @Ramza‌ Yeah I'm sure that we will all get one eventually, it just would have being nice to get it when I got the time and not when I'll start working and won't have the time to help test it.

    Hoo and I'm also sure that all the invitation thingy goes to one person and that is Dee so he got a lot on his hands for sure, and it will take time, that is all.

    I don't think my parents would buy the game for me at all. I'm left to play the originals from GoG and work on the fixpack if I find any bugs.
  • KanaricKanaric Member Posts: 31
    i preordered thinking the preorders would all get an early access, disappointing.
  • SedSed Member Posts: 790
    @CrevsDaak‌ Without knowing anything about your financial situation, but 20 dollars isn't much even if you're a student.
    Comparing it to the 60 dollars they demand for new games today, it's a bargain.

    @CrevsDaak‌ Never say never, I'm sure that they will come around and will get it for you. :)

    Trust me, when your parents won't but you a 20$ game, it's not cause it's expensive, if you take my meaning. My guess is it wouldn't matter if it was 99¢. Though I can't really speak for crevs.
