He mentioned playing with 1300 people but I didn't see him comment on client/server stability.

I'd assume it'd be playable with 1300 or else he wouldn't have said anything at all.

What chaps me is that you'd think much of the 1,300 players would be vets. I wonder how many more thousands of "tech test" beta guys are going to get in before they officially say they are living up to their word of us being the most important.

I also wonder how many guys who spammed for keys on twitter will get in before us. I wouldn't mind getting in last if they didn't make those statements and the constant lies about the release dates.

From the AMA, all active PS1 vets will be in on day 1.

Priority keys will start to get in from 2-4 weeks.

So let me be clear, if I resub right now, I'll be in on day 1?

Negative. Your subscription must have started before July the 1st.

Question (viewtfuljoe61):
for people that have beta keys, what is the estimated date for getting into beta? and if I am currently subscribed to PS1 am I pretty much guarenteed on day 1?>
Answer (j_smedley):
you will be in day 1

On that, he could have subscribed after july 1st. So technically . . .? (the date stamp is august 3rd)

Too hopeful?

Nope. Smedley just said in the AMA that people have till this morning (some 3-4 hours to go I'd suppose) to resub and still be in on day 1. Even if we are to be on the same side, anyone who subscribed yesterday would be in on day 1 according to what Smedley said like 5 hours ago.
