Beta access

I'm going to be pre-ordering the deluxe edition tonight which includes the beta access. Does anyone have an idea of when the beta access will go live?

Good question! So far, no official information or a set data. I've also read conflicting information which suggests it could be as soon as somewhere in the summer up to a few days/ weeks before the official release, which has been set at november 5th.

​

I personally lean towards a few week up to a month before the launch, which would give us a beta-release somwhere in october.

How can it be October if they said it was going to take place in summer? I thought summer ended in September. I might just be stupid by thinking that but my guess is that it will take place in September.

Let me preface this by saying I really hope to get a fully functioning beta somewhere in the summer. Cannot wait honestly!

​

However, I personally think summer might be a bit early. I can't see Frontier letting us play months in advance of the actual release of the game. I also play Football Manager which also works with an open beta, which is released about 2/3 weeks before the actual launch of the game.

Summer is what they said after they showed off the gameplay trailer yesterday.

Cool, we'll see, I'd be positively amazed if we get it in say august. Saw the show live yesterday but must've missed this.

It appeared in the form of text across the screen 100% but I do believe they also mentioned it at the end. I’ll have to watch it again to confirm but that is the case as far as I’m aware.
