Those who pre-ordered the Explorer's or Conqueror's package need not register and will be automatically granted access.

To keep you occupied in the meanwhile, don't forget the free Character Creator. Available as afree download, the tool allows you to import your characters into both the full Black Desert Online game and the second Closed Beta Test. Download the Character Creator here

Holy nuts, that is a lot sooner then i think people expected!  June/July was the predicted date, so this is excellent news; I've been dyeing to get back into this game after i had a small taste of the game during the Alpha test.

 

It'll be nice to play with some Gaiscioch members in BDO.  :)

We'll be there fo'sho as a Social Adventure.  I've already bought this game and I'm pretty sure that Fog plans on it, as he seemed to have loved it when he streamed it during last Beta.  Actually, if it wasn't regionally IP blocked, it would be a Chapter candidate.

What is a regional IP block you may ask?  It's official term is territory of license agreement.  Basically, it's a developer telling a publisher where they can re-sell their product.  Often, several regional publishers will be involved, so IP blocking their regions enforces a no-compete agreement.

Rumor has it, that Pearl Abyss decided that the RU publisher will not be required to IP block their region, so if that is true, then hopefully they'll decide to remove it for the NA/EU region, too.

All i did while i played was climb stuff; you can literally climb anything in the environment; you can even scale the mountains. it's so darn fun! XD

 

The most interesting aspect i found among a lot of other really confusing aspects (haha) is the NPC relationship system- basically all the NPC's in the game have personalities and likes/dislikes/interests- so in most cases, in order to complete quests and objectives, the player has to establish a rapport (so-to-speak) or trust with that NPC by completing smaller more personalized tasks for that NPC.

 

Hense why people may have noticed the sea of information and GUI that was shown in the alpha test- i wasn't able to play the 1st beta as i hadn't purchased the game yet at the time, so i don't know if they polished the UI/GUI since then.

Lol Neo, that was funny!

As for Black Desert, I am pondering about buying the game. Ahhh, so many things to play and explore and yet, so little time.
