Hellgate London: Sadness

Ahhh.

Thank you for pre-ordering the game. Preparations are being made to commence the Beta Test very soon. You will receive a notification when the doors are open.

Still broked.

Howdy folks! As you may have noticed, our site has had an official Extreme Site Makeover TM. You'll have to excuse some of the technical hiccups you might be experiencing. We're aware of any and all issues, and are slaving away at making all the little niggles disappear. We've also got more features in the queue, so think of the site as a constant work-in-progress.
The good news about this is that as Hellgate: London grows, so will this site. We've got new and exciting features planned for the short term, the long term, and the really long term, so keep in mind that everything here will just be getting better from here on out. FYI, you'll get all of the news updates on this Underground page, so bookmark it for convenience.

In other Hellgate news, our official Beta testing has started! For those of you currently playing, there are a couple things we want to give you heads-up about. One, we'll be performing character wipes in the very near future. Best to go wild with them now, and make sure you get the most out of them before they're gone. Yeah, we know it kinda sucks since, but hey, that's why it's Beta testing! ^_^

Two, since we're taking away something, we'll give you something back in return: new beta environments! If you've liked what you've seen so far, then the next big Beta update will make those last several weeks before launch go by a little bit easier. Expect this and a host of other changes sooner rather than later. As always, head on over to the official Beta forums to talk about all things Hellgate.

Speaking of launch, pre-orders are currently in effect! Check out this page for more info on the Dye Kit promotion we're running with GameStop, Best Buy, and Wal-Mart. Also, if you've pre-ordered through GoGamer and have been told you're getting a Wasp Dye Kit, it's true - we just got this all finalized, so pre-order away!

Before we sign off, did any of you check out Ivan Sulic's interview at GameSpot? It's really informative and gives you an inside look at the thinking behind Hellgate's quest design. Read it if you dare.

What am I supposed to do in the meantime? Oh, nevermind, I'll go laff at the Most Smartest Models. (Again.)
