EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

Same for me. It's a given that I'd give EQN a go but I honestly was pretty much purely on a hate frenzy in regards to EQNL. To say I've lightened up may be an understatement since I got the Trailblazer pack. Don't get me wrong, EQN is the one Ireallywant but EQNL seems like its own different and fun experience.

It gave me order number and listed it.. One of the Devs helped me out tho. Hopefully have it fixed tomorrow

Do they have an auction house for materials in the alpha? Im more of a hunter&gatherer type, not so much a builder...

Haven't seen any mention of it so I wouldn't count on it being in yet.

I guess you have to get materials to build stuff? If so, have they hinted at how much time it takes to gather enough mats for a small house?

Nothing official but I'd guess if you stick with wood and stone for your first house it would be pretty quick assuming you can mine every rock/tree out there.

I bet these assholes are going to start Alpha on Friday, the day I have to go back to work for 7 days straight.

Why would they launch Alpha on the same day that they have their SOE open house? Don't you think the Devs and everyone else will be a little busy showing off the Alpha and giving tours of their headquarters building that day?

Maybe it'll be Fri evening after their demo-day, gives a few hours notice before the 'last half of January' is over lol.

Min Reqs changed:

Processor - Intel i5 Quad Core or higher / AMD Phenom II X4 or higher, use to require Dual Core
Internet - Broadband (3Mbit/sec or higher), use to be 10Mbits

Is the Client available for download yet and if so where?

Yes, I do not see them opening up the game before that open house has happened.

No

Are Alpha's typically only 1-2 months long? Going by the dates on the founder packs page, Alpha states by no later then Feb. 28 and Closed beta one states by no later then March 31st. That seems like a pretty quick alpha.

Yeah, this isn't Alpha the way Alpha was originally defined. It's just a marketing term to get people excited as well as an easy excuse to sweep any bugs and missing features under the rug for now.

Well, it's not like Landmark is a particularly feature-heavy game, I suppose it wouldn't take all that long of an alpha to get the game into a beta-ready state.
