Were nearing October Now only 12 more days till then, I'm sure they'll be giving us an announcement sometime between now and exactly 1 month. ( assuming they do it by the middle of October. :P), I'm just getting exacted to see How much space its going to take for a Realm Reborn compared to the Original =).
We are rounding first base and half way to second! ( Second being ARR Download).

I presume only the alpha testers will be allowed to download the client. The next will be beta testers and so on.

I don't think they will be releasing an unfinished client to the general population. They will give the client to the alpha testers, but you won't know anything about it unless you were invited to the test (due to the NDA).

Well, Anyone could Download it.. but unless you have the Alpha/Beta key, You won't be able to play the Alpha/Beta/retail game itself. :p

09-18-2012, 11:03 PMyukikaze_yanagiThe real question would be, why let people download an alpha client if they're not in alpha, since the finalized client should be greatly different ?Quote:

09-18-2012, 11:26 PMStarlordUnless we have another Pooky Poo in out Breaking NDA ranks, that's not going to happen.. and even if it did.. they will make sure no trace of it is left :P.Quote:

I don't recall SE releasing the first Alpha client to the public, so I doubt they will release this one. Now beta is a different story, and didn't they say they will try to get a demo and/or character creator out? It would be better to look forward to that instead of the alpha client.

09-19-2012, 12:18 AMElexiaYeah there's zero reason for someone not testing to download, sure you can datamine but that would serve no purpose. Also no, it's supposed to be by the end of september unless once again they start delaying things because of being "too cautious" which is going to end up hurting them more than helping.Quote:

09-19-2012, 03:27 AMExquisiteCorpseNo. Just pointless to release a client for download that is not finalized and most likely will have changes made to it.Quote:
