Has there been any word on when the beta will be ready? :]
I signed up to try it, and really hope i get a go!


I know there's no release date yet, but how long do you guys estimated before it is released? :]
I mean do you think it will take as long as say a ps3 dw game would take to come out? O:

I hope there's plenty of options to customize your character! The trailer didnt show very many o-o

It will likely be 1-3 months before Aeria begins sending invites out for the closed beta; this is pretty normal for MMOs. Since the game is already done, program-wise, they're probably finalizing translations and actually setting up and testing the open network (the beta periods are usually a network stress test, along with making sure nothing was broken in transition).

The closed beta test will likely be a few weeks to a month long, and the open beta (If they choose to perform one) will probably follow the month after; again, pretty normal schedule. Official release usually really depends on how well the open beta tests go (Technically, Dungen Fighter Online's open beta test was a year long, according to Nexon...).

They send out confirmation emails if you got accepted usually a week or so before the beta. GMS were saying usually the beta takes place no more than a month or so after the beta announcement. So im guessing a mid-late september release date.

Its gonna suck getting all that equipment then haveing to farm for it all over again haha.

Most of us most likely won't get chosen for closed beta (Cold hard Facts for MMOs) CBT is usually very limited and is only allowed to a few people (Some sites like MMOSITE give out CBT keys now and then) and the point of Closed Beta is not really to play the game. Close Beta testers are the ones that find out the bugs and what not in the MMO before they make it official and release the Open Beta. Closed Beta also usually last for about 3-4 weeks and they close it down getting it ready for the Open Beta which would be around 1-2 months later.

Anyways I'll be looking forward to this English version of DWO. I guess I'll see most of you there when it comes out.

I don't think they'll send out the beta acceptances until it's actually ready.
No, they'll send invites to those who are selected soon. It wouldn't be called a beta if the invites are sent after the game is already released.

I was so happy when I heard this but once again KOEI has ruined my happiness because and for some reason that I can possibly understand the game won't be released for PS3.

While I'd like a PS3 version, it's an MMO. And while MMO's are occasionally released for consoles, it's easier to do so on PC. Don't stress too much: almost any PC that's been purchased new in the last three years will be able to run the game, especially with the settings tweaked.

You misunderstood me. I meant when the BETA is ready, not the full game.

A release of the PS3 version of DWO has neither been confirmed nor denied. Aeria's acquisition and release of the PC version more than likely has nothing to do with the PS3 version since they release only PC games.

When I was in Gamestop today, I saw the trailer for DWO playing on one of their TVs in the store. Kind of strange to have considering the game is for PC only and is free to play (cash shop items).

PS3 version is unlikely to happen due to cost of distribution and the fact that the game only sold 27,062 copies so far in Japan. Plus MMOs really haven't been done yet on the English PSN.

free to play? like you buy the game, install it, and you don't have like a monthly or yearly fee? :huh:
Gee, nothing gets past you. xD
But no, you don't buy it, either. xD
It's free PERIOD, unless you continue to support it by buying cash shop items like many players do.
I'm excited for the game. I was trying forever to get the JP version to work for me, but I always failed. I'm glad I don't have to worry about it anymore! Also, if it is brought to PS3, I think it'll certainly be worth my time, even if I were to have to pay for a $5-$10 fee for it each month. It would be worth that to me, I do believe.

Yeah, alright i got the message now, sorry Jsun, im just really hoping the farmer milks the cow for all its worth is all, if you get the analogy, unless its been costing them more for the games to be released on different consoles/OS then they get for revenue, i just wouldn't see why they wouldn't, lol, curse you my outdated PC

You do know that the final version of the game is being released in October, so the beta will be before that, so it should be sometime in early September.

Not quite, since the final version of the game is slated to be released in October, the beta will happen within a short amount of time, maybe a week and a half to two weeks from now.

You may be asking how I know the final version will be released in October.

This is how:
Quote:
 
KOEI has announced that Dynasty Warriors Online will be released for the PC in October 2010 for North America and Europe. No release date has been set yet by Aeria Games for the game's closed beta, but you can sign up now on their official DWO website for it.

The final version of the game is in October. If there is an open beta, it will be a very short open beta, since the game's release is in October, as I said.

Will it be possible to like, connect a playstation controller (or one similar) into the computer, and be able to play the game using that instead of a key-board? :3

No real extra news in there, just the announcement. One question though, I'm not really a keyboard man when it comes to hack & Slash on the computer. So can DW:O support logitech wannabe PS controllers?
Yes. I played both the Japanese and Taiwanese versions, and the game definitely plays better with a gamepad than it does with just a keyboard and mouse combo.
Great, that's what I was hoping for. ^_^
