US-WEST Beta started today, invites went out this morning and the patch server is being hammered by the yanks. EU Wave 2 starts next week or whenever US-WEST have had their fill.
I'll post some photos that have been released of ingame in the image thread.
Off to a good start, downloading using the Gamers First front end "because it makes downloads faster" apparently. Speed currently fluctuating between 40KB/s and 160 KB/s
I got my email at the weekend, still not downloaded it yet as not had the chance. Gives you the chance of the US or EU servers but as I guess it states servers aren't always running in the email I should go the EU route to save the time difference.
Im in and enjoying it again..Gypo didn't even realise you was a fellow OCUK member and we was in the same clan for a few months
The Beta seems what Realtime were aiming for with the final patch they had (they closed the day it was meant to come out) if gamersfirst live up to there promises i will be playing for a long time yet.
Just found an e-mail from Gamersfirst in my junk folder, no idea what that's about. Anyway, about to download the game now, is there anything I should know before I step into the world of APB?

Well i was in the first wave of the closed beta and unless there has been some drastic changes to things like car handling then its still not worth playing.
Indeed it does, but give it time as the US West Coast servers are -7h to the Uk so we wont see any activity until later this afternoon at the earliest.
Open beta build one will encorporate a lot of stability fixes for lag, drivers, crashing as well as a bit of balancing for weapons.
I've tried both a Crim and Enforcer on the EU servers and i've gotta say i'm enjoying Enforcer a bit more even though it does seem harder to earn cash. Anybody got any tips, can't say i've had the option to arrest anybody yet, unless i NEED to have a LTL weapon before i can?
