ETA on PTS?

Is there any word, anywhere, about when the PTS is going to be back up and available?

testd4n1✭✭✭Next PTS cycle?
Honestly IDK. I'm on console and a such don't have access to such luxuries.0 -
EntropicLynx✭✭✭At the moment I'm less interested in the character copies available than I am in trying out some build adjustments, but yes, eventually it would be nice to have my full set of NA characters cloned to the PTS.
So no one even semi-official has even hinted at an ETA, then? Pity.0 -
Cardthief✭✭✭I need to know this as well, was going to test out a meme build (Coward's Gear Set all Divines all Gold, Swift Jewelry all Gold, Steed Stone, Champ Points Movement Speed Perk and Sprinting reduction, Med Armour Speed Passive, Orc Speed Passive).

@KyleTheYounger, What makes you think that someone who plays on the console version of the game couldn't possibly also have access to an internet browser and this site in order to make posts to these forums? Especially since modern-day consoles, cell phones, tablets, PCs, Macs, Android TV boxes, smart TVs, and a large number of other devices *all* have basic internet access and browser apps.
Please, think things through a little more in the future.2 -

Because for most of us with us having the PTS Client we gain access to the otherwise usually hidden PTS Forum. When the game puts certain DLC's or Chapters into Beta Test they block off this forum for only those invited into the Beta Test on the PTS.0 -

Even as a console player I follow the PTS forum closely, since it will still come to us. As for your info, its a little off. They block off access to the PTS section of the forum and only those with a forum account can access it.0 -

...Thereby proving my point.
If console gamers did not receive invites, or were unable to beta test the new DLC chapter for platform design purposes, then how would it be possible for them to access the hidden PTS server forum? Which would give them access/spoilers to beta content like the MQ etc which was protected by the NDA?
Seems to undermine the purpose of signing an NDA in the first place, wouldn't it?
Seems it's you who needs to follow your own advice......

It's only NDA on the main quest I think & as said above, the PTS section isn't blocked off, even shows in the 'Recent' tab, which a lot of people were QQ about pre summerset.Edited by Sparr0w on June 8, 2018 11:35AM@Sparr0w so I get the notification

EntropicLynx✭✭✭@KyleTheYounger, As others have pointed out, the PTS forum is *not* blocked off. It is available to anyone who has a forum account.
So at least your initial post was based in some sense of logic, but your premise was deeply flawed.0 -

I agree whole heartedly with Kyle as when some of the DLC's mostly Chapters are in beta there are the NDA's and we can comment on those in the PTS forum but nowhere else so you wouldn't as a console player have access to a closed forum during the test. After the Beta is over and the NDA lifted the PTS Forum is then unblocked from general access. During the time between April 16th and May 1st only those with invites could access this section of the forum. Even those with forum accounts that did not have PTS Beta invites could not.0
