Senior Community Manager of TSW.
Therefore, we can now merge our Closed Beta Testers forum and out TSW Beta forum to a generic TSW forum. Most of our posts don't infringe paragraph 3 of Tarik's text and the others have been archived, if we needed them at some point but they were anyhow obsolete.
We can now speak freely!
The Secret World Closed Beta NDA Has Been Lifted
For quite some time now, thousands of volunteers have helped us test the game in the Closed Beta. Their feedback has helped us iron out issues, stress the systems and improve important aspects of the technology, the gameplay and the content. Their input has allowed us to make a better game and their contribution to the development of The Secret World has been crucial.
As of today, Closed Beta testers are no longer bound by the non-disclosure agreement. This means that testers may now speak freely about their experiences in the current and future versions of the Closed Beta. Sharing of screenshots and gameplay videos of the current and future versions of the Closed Beta is also allowed.
Please note that the non-disclosure agreement is still in place for any previous versions of the Closed Beta that has existed prior to June 21st. Please also note that any posts on the Closed Beta forum may not be shared with anyone outside of that forum, such as comments from both testers and developers. This includes previous, current and future posts on that forum.
We want to again thank all the Closed Beta testers for their tremendous support and effort to help us prepare the game for launch! It would certainly not have been possible without you.
See you soon ... in The Secret World.
Best regards,
Funcom
