Winners will be wise to keep this date/time secret of course as they will only ruin their own chances of downloading if they leak it to all FilePlanet premier members!

So then the winners will be given a key before the download time/date, or they will have to get their key at that time/date as well? 'Cause it's not going to exactly be fair if that time/date happens to be when they are unable to login ( by being at work, etc. ) therefore causing them to not get their key. The downloads can be started any time, the key is what's important.

Edit: And I'm not nit-picking ya, just trying to get everything clear.

We have been told that the downloads can't really be started at any time, when you get the key from FilePlanet (not us) they will cookie your browser (so you might want to shut off any "security" apps that delete or block cookies), you cannot download the client without the cookie.  At least this is what we were told...

I''m not gonna do your stupid poll.

This whole AoC beta thing is getting pretty tired.  Sign up here, pay there, refresh this page a gazillion times only on even minutes during the new moon, download 10 gigs.... No more hoops for me, just gonna wait til retail.  How far off is it now? A month?

Unless you are guaranteeing everyone who wins a Fileplanet account an AoC beta key also, that statement is wrong. Winning the AoC key still requires you to be lucky enough to catch the keys before other members get them.

 

You seriously may want to remove that from the article and the contest info, or you may have some really upset people.

This contest is completely seperate from the fileplanet beta. That one is between funcom and fileplanet. The 100 beta account contest is between MMORPG.com and Fileplanet, please learn to read before you make an ignorant statement. It even states that those that win the fileplanet premiere account will indeed include a beta key.

No, it says you get a premium account, which gets you into beta. However, premium accounts DO NOT guarantee you a beta key. See this?:

"From April 24, 2008 to April 28, 2008 @ 9PM EST we will be accepting entries into a random drawing where we will give away 100 FilePlanet premium accounts. Combined with the fact that FilePlanet is giving away beta accounts to their premier members this contest prize will get you into the Age of Conan beta test!"

This shows mmorpg.com apparently misinterpreting how the AoC/Fileplanet beta is being distributed and incorrectly stating that because they are giving you a premium account, and Fileplanet premium members are the ones getting keys, that you will get a key with the won account.

So next time you feel like calling someones' statement "ignorant", make sure yours isn't first.

OMG.. you will think what you can, but reading comprehension is what you need. These are TWO yes TWO seperate beta promotions. One is with Funcom and Fileplanet and the OTHER is with MMORPG.com and Fileplanet. 

What is so hard to understand

Not sure on the whole "special" time to download, I got my key on day 1 and was able to download it at that time.

Hrm funny, I thought the point of a contest was to give something to people for nothing.

Good luck to everyone :)
