Compliment ('http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=10537&hl=')
I'm sure I speak for others besides myself when I thank you for the compliment. By and large, most of the posts I've read have been pleasant and people just wanting more information or talking about something they feel passionately about. I can appreciate that, and it's easy to be courteous and friendly back. If I have one complaint about the forum is that sometimes things can get a little flamey, but I think that's sadly inevitable. To use a Hollywood cliche, "Can't we all just get along?" I'm a dreamer that way, I guess.
Beta Testing ('http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=2795&hl=')
Beta Testing implies that development is near Beta (not quite true, but go with me on this one). Uhm... we're not there yet. If and when we do Beta testers, I'm guessing we'll let folks know.

<p class="quote">What size texture maps are you guys planning to use for Neverwinter 2 if you don't mind me asking? Your regular 512x512 texture maps or something higher such as 1024x1024? Or is it too early to tell<hr />We are shooting to have user-defineable texture resolutions ala the original, we will probably provide options for normal-mapped texture resolutions as well and for any other wackiness we provide.
