I get this whenever I try to open the client, anyone know how to fix it? :'

Spoiler: show

There were ~15k for each region. 45k total. No more.

Yawn. Looks like they just added.

Update your drivers, most likely.

They always seem to do this crap. I haven't gotten an email from them in weeks and of course they send them out the day they send out beta invites....

Pro tip: if you are trying to use utorrent and you have already started the update from the client, you can add the torrent and direct the download to the directory where it was already downloading it. I just did that and the torrent checked to 50% since that's how much I already had. That way you don't have to download it from scratch.

I'm doing this and it's still taking forever to update. Averaging 100kb/s. At one point I was around 250kb/s for a while, but not anymore.

Uh, people who were sent invites can log in, the accounts were created already.

As of this post, the EU region has gone from 15601 testers to aprox 26,000. There must be more EU people to add yet.

Shrug, NA must have just been added recently, I checked literally 30Min ago, so you can save the down talking. Says they were registered 5 hours from now (not ago).

I'm pretty sure I already stated what the JP numbers were, but I'll requote it here anyways.

And just for some context, the last account was created almost precisely 8 hours ago.

I managed to get my hands on the installer (Beta one), but i can't even start, it's asking me to get XP Service Pack 2, i'd love to but i'm on Vista 32 bits lol... Any of you know what i'm supposed to do?

Edit: i'll try to install the vista pack 2, might be a mistranslation, i'll look further into it.

Check to make sure it's not running in compatibility mode?

My bad, it's the EU figures that haven't been posted, not JP.

**bluefan** · 2010-07-12 18:35
