  Dear Stardock Customer,


If you're receiving this letter, it means you purchased Elemental: War of Magic before it was released.

Elemental: War of Magic was a game we had very high hopes for. Unfortunately, it was a disappointment both to us, as well as to many of our customers. Stardock's success in its nineteen years of existence has been because people know if they buy something with our name on it, it'll be excellent. With Elemental: War of Magic we failed that expectation.

For the past year, Stardock has been working on something new -- Elemental: Fallen Enchantress. We went back to the drawing board to create not an expansion, but rather a new game in the Elemental universe.

Fallen Enchantress is currently in beta. Both the beta and the final version will automatically be added to your Stardock account free of charge.

Tomorrow, January 19, at approximately 3:00 PM EST you'll be able to download the beta version by visiting: download.stardock.com.

We hope you find Elemental: Fallen Enchantress to be a game that lives up to the expectations you had for War of Magic. We thank you for your support and look forward to your feedback.


Sincerely,
Brad Wardell - President & CEO
Stardock Entertainment

As a fellow norwegian, I also have no idea about the timescale here. How much time left?

Reply #52 from Elemental Forums Top

3 hours as of now.  Provided I'm in, still no email.

 

Edit: looks like we don't get the email if you bought after August but still pre-ordered.

It's 12 PM EST here now, my friend. If they're on schedule for 3 then it should be only 3 more hours :) .

The email that was sent out yesterday went to those who pre-ordered Elemental: War of Magic (purchases before August 24, 2010). If you did pre-order War of Magic and did not get an email, don't worry....be sure to check your "My Downloads" page at 3:00 PM EST today. The Fallen Enchantress BETA 1 should be there, waiting for you.

 

God damn it! I ordered on the 25th August!!!!!   x_x

I'm at GMT+2 so I've got a long night ahead of me. Good thing I don't have work tomorrow....

If I factor downloading and installing I expect to start the first game *after* midnight

Don't worry, we will be getting something slightly more betaed in a week...

 

Nah, I don't buy it either, but that is what I am telling myself.

Keep in mind that the beta at this point might not even run, and even if it runs the probability of causing internal hemorrhage is quite high as Brad said.

Even so you can expect long youtube runs tomorrow.

At least FE is almost done, can't say the same for Diablo III.

Oh yes, but of course I have a dream my system will have no bugs, so I can enjoy the beta from day 1. Hopefully I don't get cancer at least. I'm too young to die, and this game I want to have fun with for years to come.

Well I bought mine on the 28th of August and it still says pre-order, so am I not eligible?

Order date Monday, July 12, 2010

And still no email

Hey team, do you need help on writing emails?

:D

Reply #64 from Elemental Forums Top

Does anyone see anything already on his account? I have two entries, one for Galciv 2, one for Elemental... no FE yet, no grayed out or blocked or whatever. Is that correct? I am nervous! EEEK!

Just to be clear, you don't need the email to get the BETA. If you pre-ordered the game before August 24, 2010, the BETA will automatically be added to your Stardock account (the email you registered the game with) around 3:00 PM EST today. 

  

Please see my earlier message from today below...

NOTE: Look for it on you account around 3:00 PM EST....it will not be grayed out before it is available.

I'm nervous too. I see the same as you do, and no signs of the beta..... 8C  Clicking F5 every second can make disorders in your mind simular to the berserk spell.....

Did not work. I pre-ordered Elemental at PAX Prime 09 and did not get the email and do not have access to fallen enchantress on my downloads.

 

Still not impressed. I would like to be a part of beta again to give Stardock another chance, but it seems something went wrong on getting people into the beta.
