XLGAMES is ready to preload the beta client for the massively multiplayer role-playing game ArcheAge Chronicles. At the same time, invitations to the upcoming network test have also begun. If you’re one of the lucky ones, you’ll already be able to download the game early, which is especially important considering the short duration of the stages.
The network test will start at 02:00 on the evening of September 12th and 13th Moscow time and end at 08:00. This phase is available to Steam users from the United States and Canada. Its main task is to check server performance and connection stability under high load. Only a limited portion of the game is available in the test, focusing mainly on the initial area.
The developers warn that testing is using an early version of Chronicles of the Ancient Age, so players may encounter unfinished features, bugs, and other unexpected issues. The team also requested that live streaming be avoided if possible. If the livestream does take place, viewers should be warned that they are watching a server stability test rather than a full demo of the finished game.
