And they are pretty much guaranteeing that you won't be able to play the game in any reasonable manner during the test. They are going to reboot randomly and with notification, crank stuff up on the servers to put them under load, etc.

If you are hoping for this to be a good chance to get a feel for the game I would say you are better served in waiting for an actual play-test invite. With that said, I made an account anyway and will try to log on to see if I can move more than 5 feet without crashing.

From stress test invite:

In return for helping us, your participation in this stress test will increase your chances to be invited to a normal, longer-term test.

I suppose i'll download and do a stress test despite my better judgement. If nothing else, maybe I'll get a beta key i can trade for some other beta I'm actually interested in!

Or you might get lucky and their servers might not be complete garbage. I know, I am crazy.

There's no way they are gonna 'underestimate' demand for a fucking elder scrolls game... Is there?

I saw the words "beta" and "invite" in the subject of an email and got my hopes up that it was Hearthstone. Just a stress test key, but it's up for grabs.

Sucks, as I literally don't even get home from work until 9pm EDT, as I live on the west coast.

This blows, I wanted to at least get in game!

Yeah. I'd TOTALLY blow a vaca day to stare at a login screen in rage as some server down message flashes for 2.5 hours. Especially for a game that had been universally lauded.

Hey, I'm not willing to do it, but maybe this dude is. I'm off with nothing to do in those hours anyway

Testing a shitty upcoming MMO login screen for 3h in hope of 3mins of level 1 gameplay won't exactly ruin my day, and I'm kind of intrigued about their combat gameplay. It seems to suck so hard on paper (and in leaked videos) I would rather try it myself. Call it curiosity !
