For anyone who has a hankering to try out the new mmorpg game from Microsoft, head on over here to grab your copy of the Asheron's Call 2 beta client. Sadly, its a fileplanet link, so you'll have to absorb some slaw to get it.

Update:AusGamers Files local mirror

any news on an ausgamers/gamearena mirror?

Beta tested it for a month. Not very good. Very boring.

oh the joys of waiting

3hrs of waiting in that stoopid queue, 2hrs to download and fudging around with the installer which kept freezing, then there's an error page come up for login/passy.

I've given up :|

Sif you would even be up this late/early

i got work in 30 minutes :(

any help on getting an account?

So is this game good? I might download it, but I see no ausgamers mirror?

Will there be an ausgamers mirror up? Or do I have to fight my way through the slaw that is file planet?

toll. http://syd4.ausgamers.com:8080/ftp1/092002/ac2beta12.exe

Thats just the ausgamers fileplanet server, its still slaw :(

Any one actualy got the damb thing working.. like where do you get a login and password to start playing...

I think thats where the slaw is.. fileplanet may be s*** but anything microsoft on the web is imposible to navigate.

When it's installing, a fileplanet page should come up with your login/passy, it says it also sends it to your e-mail account that you logged in with to download. It wasn't working for me last night, but did this morning.

I played AC 1 Beta, and it started out crap but was awesome at the end, MS actually use beta testing to improve the game, (COUGH MAKERS OF BATTLEFIELD 1942 READ THIS!)

So yeah Ill DL it im sure its gonna be worht a game =-D

Asuka

did i say fileplanet was s***.. hmm.. i grossly understated that.. (only just started downloading now :/ )

to get around fileplanets queues,

Okkkk... so its ment to give you a login and password while installing it or from file planet.. or what.. all i know is i didn;t get any such thing

ohh GG..

We are aware that there seems to be a handful of folks who downloaded the latest beta from Gamespy/Fileplanet who may not have received a login/password. We are working to resolve the issue and hope to have an update shortly.
