Key Quest in Beta Testing

[Pickles]

The screenies remind me of Mario Party, which was fun. Tried to get in, but I get stuck at the "connecting..." page. Maybe later in the week, as they iron out the bugs.

Yeah, me too.

But yeah!!! I'm glad it's in open beta!

Edit: Snarkie even started a board for it: http://www.neopets.com/neoboards/topic.phtml?topic=123780133

Daze, was that what you got from the keys? Or what's available from the keys?

Codestone and negg prices will drop if those stick around! Training costs will drop! This is AWESOME!

Edit: I did some checking. Looks like most people are reporting neggs, codestones, books, stamps, wearables, and furniture. The prices on some of the codestones are ALREADY falling. Relief for trainers! (Okay, admittedly, the downfall is, it kinda stinks for some restockers - guess I won't be going back into restocking books or clothes. ).

Oops, I should have said, that those items are what I received from the keys I redeemed.

Great, the day AFTER I finish my training, they release Keyquest and deflate codestones xD Oh the irony!

Last night, I was able to get in, but in the middle of the game, the other player had their game freeze up and I was booted. Now I can't even get in

Does it take FOREVER to load for anyone else? I don't know if I want to sit here and wait for it to come up...ugh...

[warxelo]

I don't know about earlier, but right now yeah it takes forever for it to load for me :p

I spent over 30 minutes on the loading page, refreshing every couple minutes, and it didn't even load

[Pink]

erg...I give up for now...it's too early for this anyway.

I haven't been able to get in yet (can't try right now, but still), but I'm VERY encouraged by the way they're handling this.
First, it still is in Beta, and they've been very communicative about this - the page itself states that it might not work. Also, the impression I've gotten is that Snarkie has been around off and on (both on the boards and on JelloyNeo), specifically encouraging people to bombard the servers so that they can get the server load right and giving people some feedback. Having one of the actual TNTers...especially Snarkie...getting out there and communicating is a big plus on their side. They obviously REALLY want this to work well.

As an additional plus, they've followed up on their promise (from waaaaay back when) to help some of the ridiculous inflation problems. Codestones and Neggs have been some of the hardest things hit by inflation, and are constantly in demand. Maybe I'm just an old fogie, but I remember when they were nice and settled at 3k. (Of course, I also remember when they were only 250nps a piece on average, but I can't expect *that* again)

[Siouxper]

I am glad that codestones and neggs will be deflating, I remember when Lu Codestone was the cheapest one at like 2k I will try it again later at night to see if there will be fewer people online and it will work better.

i can't judge if it's just not loading or if my dial up makes it so i cannot play :/ i'm also stuck at the 'connecting' area... Maybe i'll just let it go in the other window for awhile longer... ahh wells.

[May]

Gah! Ever since the game went to open beta, I haven't been able to get in once I want free codestones and neggs!!!!!!!!

[Katherine]

I have a thread in the premium test board, and I can sorta get in. I can't get into a game, but I can do everything else.

[Matrinka]

*sigh*

I got in and started up a game... but can't go much further than that. I once got to pick a house, but now I can't even get someone to play with. I'm sure TNT will repair the lag soon... but I don't know how much I can take with trying to play.

On the plus side... I'm emptying my SDB of Codestones now. I want to make as much as possible on them.
