    To what level were you able to play in your previous betas? Was it past the tutorial areas?

    Max (aka 80). Multiple times.

    Arda asks: "Will there be player made addons, if so what script language will it be in and how much freedom will players have to create their own addons.?"

    Athelan: "There is no support for player made addons. Opening up for player addon's opens up the code and game to exploitation and hacking security wise in a very big way. We decided to put all the hooks we could into the interface and allow full re-skinning in XML but no open language for the players to create their own modules.."

    So you're saying these huge lag spikes I get really frequently are just because of the servers and such? Oh thank god. For a second I thought my 8800 Ultra, duo core and 2GB RAM couldn't handle even low.

    Any way to get rid of the DOS box? When I run through the patcher and click Play the game doesn't pop up.

    Also, anyway to make the textures compressed so my computer isn't boiling to the point I can cook eggs?

    
    Start the game in windowed mode the first time it runs, see if it helps. Then switch back to full screen once it loads. You need to do this just once (at least I did). Also, if you're on Vista, 4GB memory total helps a lot. And it's the cheapest part of the computer nowadays.

    I thought this meet they are putting the NDA on hold for everyone but journalists? Wouldn't that mean this write up is breaking NDA or are you not all considered  journalists?

    
    The fileplanet event is not the closed beta test, so you're not restricted by the closed beta NDA.
