Open beta in May 2015? Will Making fun deliver? What do you think?
Making fun CEO has stated, that open beta will start in May 2015.
In May we plan to widen the availability of version 2.0 to anyone who is interested in playing. In June the game should be fully launched and version 1.0 will be retired.

Public poll, nice try

Just a coincidence. I do not expect close beta testers to vote.

I would appreciate it if you either made the poll private, or deleted it. I assumed it was private, since that is the default option anyway.

Why would I add comment option if it was not public poll?

Obviously yes.

Oh, you said 2015, not 2016. Never mind...

Honestly, a delay of a few weeks from closed to open beta isn't a bad thing - it means they identified problems in closed beta and they are *trying to fix them*. I would much rather have a polished release than a rushed one; wouldn't we all?
That said, more than anything else, not *knowing* is what bothers me.

I seem to remember Goko having an Open Beta that was no different than an actual release...

Disclaimer: I did not vote in this poll or look at the results.
I would really like to think that as a community we have learned that we would rather have a quality version of Dominion and have to wait for it, than have something that was rushed and isn't good or cared enough about.
I believe we're in good hands here. Maybe it will take a while, but please don't let that make you think they don't care. It's because they care that it's taking a while.

Do I have a slight mancrush on Adam?... Maybe😜
But seriously, Adam has a way of always reassuring us and giving us hope. Thank You Adam for being positive, even when it seems others don't share your same optimism.

I highly doubt it will be out by May, or even June, but practically all software predictions are late, and hopefully it means people are trying to work out all the major kinks.

There are five days left in May.

Just in time to distract from the rumored announcement of Fallout 4! Awesome.
Now, do I want to buy cards before Version 2 or after... Hmmm...
-

12-card layout
Sounds good!!!

I believe two things that really matter here are Bane and Ruins.

Right. But in the future it will also matter than you can see all Events.

Well, sure. But by the time they are ready with Adventures they gonna need to tweak the UI quite significantly anyway, so there is no need to worry about that right now.

"Although the goal of version 2 itself is intentionally not features, we have taken the opportunity to do a few things such as simplifying our virtual currency system, replacing rooms of tables with game seeking, and adding a full-screen mode and 12-card layout. We are also pleased to announce a new set of campaigns with Guilds campaigns, new storylines, "favors", and (for the first time ever) game variants, which were designed by Donald X."
"(Version 2 already has VP counters, a colorized game log, a stack-duplicates option, animation speed tweaks, and automatch!)"
See, now this is the sort of information that would help keep complaints down. This will be a real step forward.

What are favors?
