For a three day beta in which you'll be starting at a queue or server down message for most of the time?
Nah I'm not gonna skip work, but I feel it.

4 day... Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday
I uuuhhh... I think I still will switch to IA...
Though I am really interested in end game for BH.
Good news! I'm working the whole weekend.
I believe they said they were not wiping characters from the latest weekend.
Downloading the latest updates at 2 MB a second here.
Speaking of phasing, there isn't a thirty minute recharge for changing phases like last time, is there? That got old real quick.
Last I checked, still there.

Got my email confirming I'm in for Friday. Probably going to try BH or IA this time to keep things fresh for launch.
I didn't get a confirmation email about a set time when I "reserved" my spot. I just got an email that they got my confirmation and I'm in for the weekend. Does that mean that I'm good to go when servers are online in general, or did their systems bork and I didn't get a proper testing email, though my account shows I'm in it for the test?

What does the tester page say for you?

Darn! I forgot to redeem my beta code I got through RPS. Is there anyway to get into this weekends beta some other way?
It says I'm good to go for the weekend. Nothing about times that I see mentioned. Just start and finish, which I thought was odd since people are getting set times when they can start.
That means you haven't gotten the "when you can start" email yet. Which means you are most likely Saturday or Sunday.
Yeah, you should have a mail that has this text in:

What exactly are you looking for?
I don't think it's possible at this point
Biggest problem im having so far is the constant getting "stuck" while running around... and in a spectacular move bioware made the /stuck command a suicide switch that doesn't even manage to fix the fact that you are stuck unless you rez at the med station.
Questing in Taris already is a pain due to the way the zone "flows" but add to that the aggravation of getting stuck everywhere and it makes you dont want to play.

Is this based on the current build or an older build?
Current build, actually that´s my experience last night while grouping in Taris for a couple of heroic quests.
This build in many respects is a step backward when compared to the last build.

alright i am still determined to get this game come Dec 20. BUT i have one question for those that played the beta or just know this:
- If you buy the physical copy of the game, do you STILL need to run the actual game through Origin somehow or can you be completely independent from that platform ?
- If you buy the physical copy of the game, do you STILL need to run the actual game through Origin somehow or can you be completely independent from that platform ?
Well, the beta has nothing to do with origin, but thats to be expected. Dunno if there is any kind of activation through origin at release, but origin as a second framework to launch the game? doubt it.
