Hellgatelondon.com - European Forums, End of Beta Grace Period, and SingePlayer Update

Quite a lot of news have shown up on the official website today.

The first one, from Kaiser Hwang, explains how European customers can access the official forums, by creating a US account.

Currently, all forums are located on the US version of the site (www.hellgatelondon.com). Eventually there will be some sort of forum locally on the EU site, but this date is still TBA.

The second news, this time from Ivan Sulic, warns us that the beta client will work until Wednesday, November 14. All players will then need to add a registration key to their account and play with the release client.

As of Wednesday, November 14, 2007, we will require that all accounts have a registration code in order to play.
To continue playing, you need to enter the registration key from your purchased copy of Hellgate: London into your existing account management page. You do not need to make a new account, however. You also do not need to be a subscriber to continue playing from where your characters are in-game. Simply log into your account and enter the retail registration key into the registration key field on your account management page…

Finally, another news by Ivan, announcing that a new single player patch will be released tomorrow morning.

On November 8 at approximately 8:00am PST, we’ll be releasing a new single player update for Hellgate: London. This update will not impact our online game servers. There is, however, a chance you will not immediately see the update tomorrow morning as we’ll be throttling delivery to ensure a smooth release.

Fixed: Multiplayer starting on a black screen for a very small percentage of users that applied the 1.40 single player patch.
Fixed: Incomplete downloads for the single player and launcher patches.
