Beta, back up or not?

Forces(UK) · 26-03-2009, 09:27 AM

Yesterday Twitter said it was back up again, but computer says no.

The forum announcement said that the beta would go down at 9:30 GMT yesterday, which it did ...but rather than resurfacing a few hours later as indicated via Twitter, it has (for me at least) continued to be a dead page since then.

Anyone got any hard news? ...Maybe a DICE staff member even?

EDIT: At 9am GMT (an hour or so after I started this thread) the website is back up and thanking me for my patience. Apparently the beta will be back "soon"...

Wow, it's still not back, and yet this thread has only had 13 views, and no replies.

Popular beta program...

I sort of had a PM asking about this.
At least they got my soldiers deleted. My Beta persona is still their though. So I should be set to go when they get it back up.
Also not many of the beta testers in the community use this forum as the Beta has its own forum. And they may just leave that forum up when it goes live from the looks of the game design. So this section may never be as active.

Yeah, I used to use that other forum (within the beta) ...but now that site is inaccessible, I just thought maybe a lot of the beta users would come to this one.

It's nice anyway that you posted VectorRoll.

Hope it returns soon.

EDIT: It's back
