Official website says Beta's are up and running, though if you try to submit your beta code, you will receive an error (kek?). Also, none of the three official "pre-order" places have the codes in yet.
anxiously awaiting ofc.

yea I went to best buy today and the 4 guys I talked to were like wtf is Hellgate : London even after I showed them the official site stating best buy will be selling preorders starting yesterday.
So then I went to gamestop and got the same wtf look and they knew nothing as well.
Still iso a preorder somewhere.

If so lets hope on it being as big if not bigger than WoW then lifetime = BIG BUCKS

On the wait list now, they are allowing people waves as they test the servers/game issues.
This game better be fucking worth it.

No email from them yet confirming that I can start the actual beta.
As for specs, can't find it on their site now. There site is kinda fucked, and they have been making changes to it daily. When I get accepted, I will let you know the specs. Gogamer.com and gamestop.com don't list specs either.

So far, being a level 5, and not knowing what to put a single stat in, or skill for that matter, I give the game play a solid 8. Very FPS style, though you can scroll back the zoom and play d2 style7. You are still behind the player, not above so to speak.
The weapons can be socketed, and also removed from the central hubs (town, but not really), and you can also take an item and pay a machine to add a best friend mod to it, with 3 levels of quality, at a cost of gold of 100, 500, 1000, respectively.
That's all I know. It really is a FPS-style game, but with your hack-n-slash feel. Game has a soft cap of about level 22 atm. 5+ more weeks of Beta, so we shall see what it is like at the higher levels.
Kinda fun aimlessly playing a game for the first time.
