I can’t make any Beta characters… When I try to make my Engineer it simply uses one of my available character slots (None Beta) and I start in my starting zone! (Plus, Revenant isn’t available!)

I can make a character in a beta slot but not a Revenant, so I don’t think it’s properly live. Also, the character select screen isn’t playing HoT music.

It actually places you on a regular char slot creation.

Yeah it just wants to create a character for my empty normal slot no matter where I click.

There is no “Create (BETA)” button this time.

Can you create a new Beta Character now?

Thanks!

Ok, soooo… ~looks around with stern countenance~

You guys were just trying to jump the gun a wee bit, eh? Maybe were at the log-in screen and hopped? But now, all is well? You can make a beta character, hmmmmm?

Glad to hear it. I’ll have to make this up somehow to the half a gazillion people I was pinging about this.

I’m glad you’re in now. Have fun!

Sorry bout that Gaile, but you did have to know we were going to make a break for it as soon as you said something, and while some of us don’t agree with every decision going into it we are pretty freaking psyched about it in general

Had the same problem. When you go to character select and back you are forced into Verdant Brink. From there I was able to enter the story instance without a problem. Already send in a bug report.

It bothers me that tigers are terrestrial and not amphibious. Because tigers IRL love water. It doesn’t make sense for the other cats to be able to go in water but not tigers. I hope they can go underwater at launch. Not a big deal but, it’d be nice if at least one of the pets could go underwater.
Also, druids should be holding the staff the standard old way, since it is a magic staff and not a melee staff.
