I see the majority does not rule.

To be honest there were more lose ends than we realised so we were not able to go with the majority. Getting the system to work with RoR and without it has been tricky and taken up more time than we had planned. We were just not happy with the state the game as in to release today. The guys who get the Beta will see what we mean. We ran out of time to add pop ups to explain all the new features and the menu flow is less than ideal.

This is one of the best games I've purchased in years. It is what I've always wanted in an ancients computer game. So, please, take your time with the expansion. I'd much prefer getting a polished product later, than something that is full of flaws now. Dare I say it...with age comes wisdom.

To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: "There are two great dissapointments in life. Not getting what you want and getting what you want."

Well, in that case I change my vote to "Hold off until it's complete."

I went hold off before I started reading the posts
Good things come to those who wait, and a nice working copy of the game is worth waiting for
Any thoughts on which army book would be next on the to do list??

Ok all those who applied have been sent their mails. Please note the installer is still uploading and will not be available until 9pm GMT. Please post all feedback to the beta forum. Enjoy!

Sorry - nobody else will be able to join for now.

RoR beta:
Hope it is ok to post this here,

My beta serial number comes back with 'invalid' popup when i try to run the download. Also the beta forum link brings up a message saying the forum does not exist.

Can you get to the beta forum from here (navigating to it in the forum)?

Cheers

I can't seem to find any link to it in this forum. I can't see it on the Forum Index page either.

Have downloaded the game onto both my computers but the serial number doesnt want to work on either.

My serial doesn't work either

Serial is not working

Mine neither. Also no beta forum.

This is the link to the forum:

viewforum.php?f=86

If it's not working then I guess the process for adding you to the beta group didn't work in some way. I don't have access to the beta list for FoG from here, so unfortunately you'll need to wait until the sun comes up in Europe for Iain to take a look at what is going on.

Cheers

Serials resent and forum access adjusted to hopefully fix both issues.... sorry guys.

Let us know if it works.

Thanks, all seems to be working now
