I'll be in the open beta as well. FilePlanet stole my $$...hopefully I can find some use for it besides the open beta :(

hah on the other hand I'm glad my 7 year subscription finally gave me a good beta :P
Looks like I won't be able to post my findings because I can't play yet. I was hoping to get to play the beta but no notice on it.
May not be able to play until the 20th.
I am in the beta now but there is no scripting or emotes in the game yet as far as i can tell. I am assuming there will be something because at the moment there is not even /assist. The game is beautiful though but it is clearly still playing a beta version.
It does have assist, check the keybindings ;)
But yeah lots of unfinished things.. I love seeing stuff labeled '%DescriptionString%' and things like that. :P
its a crude beta client. From what I'm hearing the Close Beta client is leaps and bounds ahead of the FilePlanet Open Beta client. We arn't even running Cheeta2.0.
So far I love the game, got a lvl 13 ranger, barbarian and a Bear Shaman. Tonight is pvp till I pass out at the keys.
Shout when they push a new client Gurb, Im done. 8-10 hours of play and probably 40+ crashes.
Game looks good and fun, its gonna be boxable, but not at a competitive level like wow. Still havent found any type of macro system, but there is an assist command which can be tied to any hotkey. Also I didnt like how some of the keys on the keyboard couldnt be bound (reserved keys sucks).
Accomplishing stuff like assistcasting lightning bolts and shit on targets should be easy, but I have no answer for how to do movement. Just have to wait and see if they build more options into the final client.
Edit: There is collision detection in the game, but it is a very forgiving one. You could run straight at someone, but instead of getting totally blocked, you just sorta bounce around them. I think a follow command could work well even with this.
First post here, been reading for a while, but saw this thread and thought I would add.
In closed beta atm (nda says I can talk about stuff upto lvl13), from what it looks /follow and /assist are commands ingame atm, /follow is just not implemented yet (on this beta client anyway).
The biggest problem as a spellcaster with multiple accounts (planning 3, 2 demonologists and a Priest of Mitra) the big AE nukes are ground targeted, you click the spell and have to click the ground to get them to fire.
[s]Not familiar with keyclone (I used synergy to dual box dark age of camelot) can it pass a mouse click through to other clients, or is somethign else needed?
[/s]Played around a bit with keyclone and octopus now, together they should do what I want, most of the spells are either grp ae heals/HoTs or ground targeted AE, so as long as I have /follow I should be fine :)
From what I have seen and played, Conan will be able to be multi-boxed BUT I don't think it will be fun. I have played all of the classes so far and caster would be the easiest to MB, or the Old school Melee/healer. Again, the combat mechanics are so involved that doing anything other than controlling that one character would get old real fast IMO. I have two copies on order, I will give it a shot. But i am way more excited about WotLK at this point.
Oh and one thing I got from a GM in beta (there is no ToS for the game yet)...
