Well as they show it it on gamefaqs.com it's in the first quarter, because you arent' the only one who want kill.

No, that's when Closed Beta started. First Business Quarter started in October last year, around the time the game opened up to Western gamers.

I checked the Exteel boards. There's gonna be something called Exteel Smashfest. Basically, every user is supposed to log on at the same time, and get a crap-ton of matches going.

Also, an NC Coin givaway. So that's cool.

Open Beta is supposed to start a few days after this, and all registered accounts are going to get an e-mail about it.

One more thing, in the Open Beta, we'll FINALLY get a CLan system!

EDIT: Oh ****. I just checked another topic. When Open Beta starts, all Gamer Accounts will stay active. Everything else will be wiped. You have to create everything again, starting with Callsigns. Training will have to be done over, all stats and ranking will be wiped.

It's bad for us, but good for those who haven't started yet, and need to catch up quickly.

Really? Took me only a few days.

There was a week where I was never off for more than a few minutes. That game is like crack mixed with caffeine.

We want to thank you for your patience during this extended game downtime. Currently, we are still in-between phases (between the closed beta and a more open beta) and we wanted to provide you all an update as to what is going on:

Right now we are working on two new systems that will enhance the new patch: the clan system and the web ranking system. We feel these will add greatly to the Exteel experience, and we can’t wait for you all to see them. We’re preparing an extensive set of invitations for the next phase of the beta, which will include all current beta accounts, just to make sure we cover everyone we’ve ever invited. On top of that, we’re going to be adding a lot more new players!

We’re also working on an NCcoin giveaway. These coins are part of our micro-payment system, allowing players to purchase in-game items. We’ll be distributing these for free - for a limited time. Accompanying this giveaway there will be a special event for testers, the Exteel Smashfest. The idea behind this event is to get everyone into the game in the same time, and get a *lot* of matches going. It’s going to be a blast! On top of that, the player database will *not* be wiped between this NCcoin giveaway and launch. So this is an excellent opportunity to earn some coin, attain new rank, and get your Mechanaught all jazzed up before launch. This is a special thank you from us for all your hard work and dedication.

Open beta will officially begin a few days after this event has ended. We’ll be sending out emails to both new and existing registered account owners with all the juicy details–it will include information regarding the event AND open beta.

We will provide specific dates and other details at a later date, but we do hope that this status update has proved to be helpful. As you know, we're now out of February, so please keep an eye on your mailbox during this month of March.

(Note from myself: On behalf of Exteel I wanted to apologize for the delay in this announcement. Many details had to be finalized. Posting partial information not only would have been confusing, but rather misleading.)

I want to thank you all again for being so patient with us. The biggest question I get is “So what’s the timeline looking like now?” I wish I could answer that, but we don’t have a date set just yet. But I can stay that we are still in the planning stages.

We’ll get things kicking again once we’re fully staffed up and ready to go. And don’t worry about missing any news; once we reach that point we will send out an update via email In the meantime I'll try to pass on additional updates as they come in!

Yeah, but I think that doesn't work becase I got downloaded also long time ago the japanese Gunz version and it doesn't work. But if it works by Exteel please send us how to register in the korean game.

The registration is the problem. You need to have a Korean Social Security Number to register, so unless you have a korean friend who is willing to help you out, you're fresh out of luck. Man, if it wasn't for this registration thing I'd be playing KExteel right about now!
