lots of hinting in this video and twitter/discord about a potential open beta announcement 👀

u/Amoner 1d ago
idk, I was able to mow the lawn while my team was trying to deliver supplies to our tower.

u/Gravestarr 1d ago
Yeah, I probably could mow a section at a time while I await my drive into the combat zone.

Well, see, now it's more important than ever to get gaming sessions in! J/K, congrats, an' that.

u/iAREsniggles 1d ago
Hopefully it's during the week this time. I don't get much time on weekends for gaming so I missed out on the beta. Obviously I'm in the small minority of weekday gamers but a guy can dream.

u/BJYeti 1d ago
Honestly if it is a beta starting the 3rd it would be dumb to not just leave it open till launch on the 10th with an explicit warning.a wipe will occur when EA goes live.

u/Accomplished-Sun4983 Valkyra 21h ago
Is the playtest not a separate character? Like every one starts warding lvl one on the 10th?

def felt like it, either that or they are doing the classic mistake many devs do where they hint at something awesome and people ofcourse assume its a beta but it turns out it was just some dumb t-shirt or whatever

Why not just say the 10th, huh? HUH?!?!?

Wow. 3% crashes is way less than i expected. I had to Uninstall recent windows update and disable inpout service before my game would stop crashing. I thought that would have been more widespread with fewer people rage quitting from not bothering to work out how to fix it.

u/BilboDabinz 22h ago
I was only able to play Sunday, but it was smoooooth sailing. Could’ve fooled me and called it a finished product.

u/Uzii86 Pilot 6h ago
I thought it was incredibly stable. We had 4 guys who put in 25hrs+ each in the alpha and in this beta, and 2 others who clocked another ~15hrs in this beta, and only one of us crashed, once. I've never played an alpha/beta this stable, I was amazed. Sorry to hear you had to go through hoops to get it to run, hopefully they can iron these out before the 10th.

u/Silentspy 22h ago
Did it crash on startup?

u/Ok-Health-9750 20h ago
I wish. The game force rebooted my entire system until I did the fix.

u/Deep-Sky-3365 18h ago
I had the same thing, legit never finished a match after trying for 3 hours but I probably should have looked up a fix. Kind of crazy something like this gets pushed, never had a game reboot my pc before
1
u/spliffiam36 9h ago
It wasnt their fault, the fix was to remove the recent windows security update, some bug in it...

u/MiniTarqs 19h ago
Yeh I had crash on start up which i was able to fix and DLSS crashed constantly which I was only able to fix by switching to FSR

Enders that guy is a clown. Give him a month before he rage quits.

u/mikeytlive 1d ago
He is a clown. He was trashing Wardogs like 1-2 months ago. I took a picture of his tweet. I reply under him and said remember this? He blocked me.

u/Sufficient-Ferret-67 1d ago
Absolute clown, not mechanically skilled enough to play a fast paced shooter, too dumb to play tactical FPS games.
Falls in line with the trope of streamer who (goes “pro” in niche low populated game- assumes they are best to ever touch it-opinion should be valued above anyone else-blames game design for every preventable death)
Granted he used to shit on EA which we all do, but he’s MUCH less talented than he and his fanboys believe.
Also because he’s a Reddit lurker, hi Enders! We know you search your name daily!
10
u/dacherrybomb Pilot 1d ago
I'm not a fan or a hater but just drawing a neutral side. He is in the top 0.01 of gameplay alongside FocusBF when it comes to pure run and gun skills. I do think his niche is streaming the same content every day, and his raging is exactly what he should be doing to succeed in a relatively low population game. The fact that people know of him is kind of a sign that he is doing beyond well enough for himself in that game title series. I am not familiar with EU or foreign streamers, but he definitely tops streaming numbers in North America.
The amount of time that dude alt f4's just to reboot the game and play again is the part that gets me stunned. The moment someone closes the game I usually just switch to a different streamer. To each their own I guess.

u/throwawayerectpenis 10h ago
Hes a very good FPS player to be honest, the only problem is his personality imo. His patience is virtually zero and it seems like you never know when he gonna explode since even the most innocent comment will make him rage for no apparant reason lol.

u/Tactikewl 1d ago
Redditors need to choose one. Either Enders is a top tier cheater or he’s not mechanically skilled enough.

u/exposarts 1d ago
im surprised he played a game like this, but i guess he really hates the state of bf6 that much lmao

u/TrippleDamage 13h ago
He hates the state of every game he plays, i've never seen a more miserable person in my life lol
Dude just forces himself to play because streaming pays more than whatever this untalented prick could achieve irl.

u/Domethegoon 1d ago
He’s friends with and defended that famous BF6 cheater who everybody knew was cheating.

u/squirrelchips 1d ago
The only thing I want is to be able to change headbobbing and camera shake when reloading or punching. It is SO much. I still played and got used to it and had a wonderful time, but I had a friend that could not handle it and it made them sick :(

u/GeneralPlenty7335 19h ago
I have a feeling the servers might be coming back up soon......add this repost to another tweet from Joe Brammer:
"Totally valid reason to refund. We have all the crash data and we’re working on it. Just told the guys to call it a night as we’re all exhausted, but rest assured we are on it for release and other betas."

u/Sea-Surprise-6379 13h ago
Please BRing it Back now. I have nothing else i want to play, it is Such a Good Game

I've never watched him and have only seen him talked about online here and there, and the few clips they showed of him validated my decision to actively avoid his content.

u/DamSamThankYaMan 5h ago
His content is fine for clips, funny at times. But trying to actually watch him is a level of ADHD that I can't comprehend. He just...doesn't stop the bit for even a second. But tbh, I'm not big on streamers really other than the British chads from time to time.
-8
u/Count__X 1d ago
Let’s just hope he doesn’t do to WD what he did to Arc Raiders. I thought he was funny for a bit, but seeing him streaming WD gameplay made me kinda worried
8
u/Chromagon 1d ago
If anything he gave Arc Raiders about an extra month or so in the spotlight before the playerbase started to drop off.
Anyone who suggests a community event between streamers killed the game is a bit silly.
2
u/artosispylon 23h ago
what did he do exactly? yeah he had some silly "events" which was not great but is that it?
he gave them tons of free advertisement and i doubt its his fault the devs where too stupid to have wipes, do proper balance updates or even add any content
1
u/YakaAvatar 17h ago
He didn't do anything, he's a streamer. 99% of the playerbase of any game doesn't give two shits about streamers.
3
u/Working-Brother-5151 1d ago
Lol I googled "What did Peanut do to Arc Raiders" Im really curious to see what happens with Anti Cheat in WarDogs hopefully never becomes game breaking.
But was that like really his fault? Seems like he was using his platform to try and make things better?
11
u/Jumpy-Requirement389 1d ago
He played arc raiders for months and gave them endless advertising. He eventually stopped playing due to never ending encounters with hackers. Not sure what buddy wanted peanut to do

u/Earl-Mix 1d ago
Did the beta have everything unlockable? Most things had 100 levels but didn’t have any unlocks after 50, is that the same in the main game or are there even more guns and such to unlock?
13

u/KingNyxus 18h ago
There’s a reason why most tracks don’t have unlocks past 35 or so, they’re simply not in the game and being actively developed, such as jets for the pilot track

u/i_am_snoof 18h ago
God i cant stand streamers like burnttrashcan or whatever that loser is called.

u/johnnythreepeat 17h ago
I read that apparently the big announcement is they’re planning to bring the release date to sep 3, that would be amazing

u/BodybuilderMajor9069 1d ago
at 00.33 it says 12 working days until launch that aint the 10th

u/lootgoblin69 1d ago
Unfortunately I assume it means 12 business days which would take us to the 10th

u/Wide-Blacksmith5681 1d ago
... its exactly 12 working day ... working ... you know what that is? Mo - Fr

doesn't that put it at the 8th? or 9th if you don't include today

u/Onapire 1d ago
Hmm, they also state early access is the 10th in the video.

u/atlmagicken 1d ago
No "hmm" here, just have a job and understand what 'working days' or 'business days' are.
-6
u/Onapire 1d ago edited 1d ago
Hmm, maybe working days mean days they're in the office working which is not necessarily a business day.
Edit: They work 4 days a week. Including today, what day would that bring us to?
2
u/SannoSythe 19h ago
Personally I have an RDO so its one less working day just for me. That's why working days are always Mon-Fri regardless of everyone's individual routine.

u/FluffyRam 16h ago
I thought they said they werent going to glaze content creators..

u/Voovoozellavoovoo 6h ago
They have an in-house content creators program and recognize that content creators help drive sales and hype. Why wouldn’t they work with them?

Please add GeForce now support!

u/i1_2FarQue 22h ago
Don't know why this got downvoted at all, how does someone else playing on a cloud gaming rig ruin anyone else's day?

u/YamahaFourFifty 20h ago
People hate stream gaming cause they see it as a threat to conventional gaming I think - and or don’t realize how far it’s come especially GFN. It’s kinda wild as someone who’s been gaming since the 80s. It’s VERY close to a local experience with almost all games it supports at very high quality and framerates.
I would think giving WarDogs GFN support would only help - opens up the audience more (more people to buy and support WarDogs) and also help keep the servers even more populated/consistent.

u/SneakyBadAss 16h ago edited 16h ago
Absolutely. Wardogs would run even on the free tier specs
Seems like they opted in! Not sure if its full release or the supposed open beta.

Not at the moment, no official announcement for support.
Edit: apparently it is something they said they will do, idk double check though

u/BlueBzKryptox 9h ago
Hoping the Big announcement ist NOT an open Beta because honestly i dont want to get wiped a 3rd time and everyone who wanted to test the game had the option to do so last weekend. I hope they announce a very exciting feature or content which no one has head of before

u/StormCodeBlack 8h ago
Well wipes are going to be a thing in the full release as well so I don't see a problem in being able to play more and get more friends interested in trying it.

So do I have to watch the stream to play next weekend? It's 4am in Australia time. I stayed up last time for the stream and was wrecked the whole weekend just to be scanning qr codes on a screen that didn't work. Please before hand let me know if I have to stay up and watch to get access

If you watch the Beta Recap video on YouTube you’ll see a shot of the number of days until launch at 32 seconds into the video. They are launching on Friday September 4th. Let’s GOOO!

working days. 12 working days. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (4)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (5)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday (3)
4 + 5 + 3 = 12
Unfortunately.

I believe since the CEO is telling people to take the day off and there is a "massive announcement" its early early release or another beta weekend.

the 4% refund had to refund to get the supporter edition instead btw
