[George Costanza]

Why is auto loot in?

YUP (10 chars)

they want a controlled number of characters on(not 200,000 people hammering one server and complaining that the experience is terrible)

I am not sure if you are just slow but where the hell did you get that from my post.

Why is auto loot in?

It was in vanilla as well, you just needed to press shift while right clicking mobs.

Got in then got dc'd. Came back and server is down. I guess they put it up early?

its a stress test, thats the point. to break the servers.

yep, AoE loot wasn't in vanilla

[arkanon]

Same... I've heard of people subbing only a few years ago that got into the actual Beta. Not sure what's up with that.

Why would a sub have anything to do with classic? Im not following the logic here....

[oldgeezer]

Got an invite here. 4 Gb download, nice.

They listed criteria for who the really want in the beta and people who've been playing since vanilla was high up on the list, but they also do random invites to get a wide range of players

Damn it. I thought subscribing for retail beta would suffice. Seems there is another button for beta classic which I missed. Oh, well, better luck next time.

[Ulfric Trumpcloak]

They didn't even invite me to stress test

Guess i gotta keep playing ESO...

Its a different server altogether, the lvl cap is 5 and its only up for 6 days.

The level cap is 5 and it's up for only one day. The actual test is tomorrow 4 to 6 PDT. Then it will still be open for a day.

"We’ll be actively monitoring the server, sending server messages, etc. during the 4-6pm PDT period and it’s important to have as many people as possible log in during this window! The stress test realm itself will be available until Thursday, May 23 (becoming unavailable around 6:00pm PDT)."

no they are compiled into 1.
the only way to tell is log in, if there is stress test, that means your stress test, if it shows the actual beta servers then you are in.

Stress test, as I understand it, is its OWN beta.

The object is to break the servers and monitor their new Sharding whatever its called tech.

They just want bodies.

[chazus]

are these invites getting revoked after the test? I don't want to loose classic man

I'm unsure what you mean, exactly?

If you get invited for the stress test, and then it's revoked afterwards... It's not like not logging in will help keep it.

I'll be curious if they actually test layering tomorrow. I have a feeling they are just going to test the integrity of the servers themselves and Stress Test 2 will be for testing layering.
