Yay! Have fun and do a good job with the testing!
(By the way Thunderheart, you didn't provide the subject message for the email those Fan Fest Beta Testers who do not receive their invitation by Friday are supposed to send, nevermind Virrago covered for you 
).

NDA? How the heck do they think they are gonna hold over a hundred people to a NDA? How do they think they will even know who's spilling the beans? I have been looking forward to this beta not to be in it, but to finally learn something USEFUL about it! I've been getting tired of all the fluffy screenshot crap. I want the meat and potatoes info. Bah! I'll just watch the gaming sites. Info should be rolling in as soon as they load in.

Actualy, it takes about two weeks for duplication to produce enough copy for market.So the last two weeks will be reserved to stress testing the server. Any bug discovered then will have to be patched in the live game. Thus, we only have about one month time to prevent bugs going out with the live game.

Actually, if it's on the target release date, one month, eighteen days.

They won't be able to keep a lid on it entirely.. they weren't for the original beta but no information will be official. We won't allow NDA leaks on Stratics, for example, and neither will any other fan or media site (for the most part - some no longer in existence sites did during the original beta!).
I'm sure they'll start releasing more info, though, as they'll know that it'll leak slowly anyway.
