So.. the open beta ends the 1st of June, the 15th of July, or when?

[Para]

So June 15th is the start of retail? I guess they're going to apply a new patch to the clients some time soon in preparation of retail to correct some bugs I guess or security loop holes.

15th seems to be when the Beta ends, the 1st is when the Beta Client is available for download.

But didn't Sega say that everyone would have to start fresh from the official release date...?
Thought I heard that somewhere.http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_confused.gif

I thought it was the closed beta testers that had to restart. Of course, I'm probably wrong. lol

[Cheeky]

Yeah i think the beta is whats available on the 1st(forgot all about that :/). And if thats the case then the full release would likely be july 15th

Huh?!

July 15th?? not June 15th?? (Of course July 15th sounds alot better)

[RFB]

July 15th!! Now we're talking!! That gives time or anyone to lvl up decently at least one character :3
And it makes much more sense, a Beta period not lasting even a month? (From May 21 to June 15) it doesnt seem something logic to me.

[Arislan]

Yeah, July, oops.

One problem with levelling... The beta only goes as high as Hard mode. So no VH or Ult experience. Or rare hunting in said modes.

July? Thats great. Very happy to hear such news.
Maybe I can slow down my leveling abit.
However finishing my guide is on high priority.

[RFB]

Well we can use the time:
1)Making as many goverment quests in normal and hard as we humanly can.
2)Try to lvl up various characters before the beta closes.
3)Online quests madness. Gotta beat´em all.
4)Seeing how far we can lvl just playing hard.
5)Cant think of anything else right now...

HTTP download for client, is now up.

[NanoGogeta]

with that download do we need to do all that crap with cd images and stuff like 1st download we had?

[Arislan]

No, just download and double click. Done, easy.

[Zzzzzz]

So I can play BB on my computer, beta version just by downloading it, without any problems?
