Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General The Beyond Divinity Demo Thread.

Hello.

Following the announcement, the Demo will be out about next week.

So I decided to canalize everything here in this thread, impressions, suggestions, bug reports, and everything else. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

@Larian Studios : Keep up the good work ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Alrik.

WOW, I first joined when I had some problems with Divine Divinity crashing ( a year ago) ,and have been visiting these forums at least once a month, just to see what's been happening. So when I heard about Beyond Devinity demo ,I just had to log on (took me 10 minutes to remeber the pswd). High hopes that this one will be even better, I just hope there will be less huge generic boring hack and slash areas that seemed to make Divinity so monotous at some parts, not to mention the end. Anyways ,can't wait to try the demo, and if the game ends up being even half as good as Divinity , am in.

Whops, sorry for posting here, I just relized that this was meant to be an actual demo feedback thread, my applogizes.

Apology taken. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Be welcomed! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

The press release about the demo isn't listed on the BD site in the frame at the right under latest news, but should be.

tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow = big day for mankind <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

One small step for a man/woman/dwarf/troll/dragon/DEATH/cat/brain/alien, one big leap for mankind/womankind/dwarfkind/trollkind/dragonkind/DEATHkind/catkind/brainkind/alienkind!

Is it tommorow already??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Ah great, now I can spend my wednesday afternoon in style <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Just hope the download server won't be overheated by all the people clicking that link on 12.00!

Ok ,the DEMO will be released on 12:00PM on 3/3/2004 right ? ==> does this mean the coming night at 00:00:01 ? this is Wednesday night afterall ... ?

Since 12:00 PM (Post Meridiem) , would mean that this would be 12 hours after wednesday noon , so Thursday Night . . .

What did they mean ? Does anyone know for certain ?

Ok , now i'm really confused , i just posted a reply and the post time stated : 03/02/04 01:02 PM . . . .
it's 20:05 here in Belgium (where Larian resides) , what time zone will they use ?

it's probably on belgium time...hopefully....the forum has universal time huh?

I don't know for certain but i would say that 12:00 PM is 1h in the afternoon tomorrow.
Now is 7h45 PM or 8h45 in the evening.
I have to wait about 16 hours (plus 6 hours for downloading)

can't wait <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Drake,

I think you're right , i'm just not used to using the AM/PM system . . . tomorrow at noon ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks

I'll be waiting in line 1 hour ahead of time.

If they'd have said 12:00 it would have been less confusing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

[digression] For the record, 12:00AM is midnight, 12:00PM is midday. Mind you, did you know that 24:00 (midnight at the END of the day rather than the midnight at the START of the day) is also a valid time according to international time standards. One (just one) of my digital clocks in the house goes to 24:00 at midnight! Freaks me out every time I see it!

Anyway, roll on tomorrow - only 12 hours to go until download time! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

(Or maybe, 12 hours to go until frustration time because everyone else is downloading it at the same time...)

The demo is availeble @ www.spelletjesgarnaal.be. Unfortunatly it's a pay site.

Huh? I doubt it's legitimate. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Yes it is. The owner of the site also works @ Larian and that's why he got the demo first.
