Virtual Family Kingdom?

[MaryBelle]

I was going to try this but it seems Beta registration is full :-( Phooey. I am on some kind of waiting list I guess, but who knows how long until I get to join. What a bummer.

[*tinker_belle*]

What a surprise...their site is down and after several attempts at trying to reload, it says "problem loading page" hmmm. Interesting....

[janmathatter]

i did manage to complete registration and get in for a bit. Scary to be in a room with 10 ppl that look just like me.(or me looking like them?) Being in didn't last long though.

No wait! I'll start complaining after they do a '"parade" down Medieval Street USA. That will so rock.

Ricks (who is looking for his other pom... ah there it is.... )

Tricks, you missed the parade on Main Street last night. We watched Patti go up and down the middle of the street and cheered her on.

So for the login you just use the name you gave them on registration? I can't see anything now since its all blocked for me until I get home later.

I'll try to log in for a couple minutes tonight.

I was able to register my character while at school about an hour ago. The actual game didn't load for me, but I was able to at least save my character name. Now it's loading the homepage, the play now picture for the button isn't loading, and when you click that you get an IE cannot display the page or whatever error.

EDIT: Finally got to log-in and the game loaded. Game is acting weird however. Seems like you can only see some people in some rooms, and then chat sometimes doesn't like to work. Very interesting character style to say the very least. I am Guest215...

[Krystal_Rose]

Ok, I figured out to click close to a doorway and you exit into another room. I wandered the empty the streets for a bit and finally realized that the other ppl were just invisible. Talk is touchy, works sometimes but mostly doesn't work. I think I need a nap.

It apparently doesn't like figgiefig

Well I preregistered and signed in just now to check it out and get my name, but it seems somebody beat me to it. If you see mamacita it's not me. It said I'd have to choose a new name but then it let me sign in without doing it so who knows. For the 30 seconds I was in the game i was guest 595
Still looks fishy to me, but it's worth looking into. I would love to have my suspicions proven wrong.

[GossipGirl]

Hmm.. I pre-registered in Beta 3. I've tried a numerous amount of times to register my pre-registeration and load the game, but I continuously get an error. My brother was a big fan of VMK and he kept trying to persuade me that VFK was a scam.

Though the site does seem a little fishy to me, I think I'll give it a shot. Yes, the site is experiencing problems, but like the homepage states, they can only allow so many people to play right now. Hence the waiting list. They don't want servers to fall. But in my opinion, I think they should make sure everything is up and running properly before allowing thousands of people to log in.

[Chescat]

I think the reason they wanted to at least make an attempt to show it now, is to show people that they are serious and that there is a real game going here. It might take a little while to get something we normally expect, but its a place that we can all find each other again and that's what counts.

I think 50,000 may have been a beta over the top.

[WDWfanatic742]

When you figure that 1,000 people back in the day for VMK's beta was overloading the system, imagine how bad it is now. Just give them time guys, it took VMK a year or two before we ever even knew about it to learn and adjust their game. VFK has had alot less time and they seem to be doing well for two months.

Right now, they appear to be innundated with people trying to get on.

ElectroGoofy was on earlier. He had not heard about trying to find a staff member. Not sure why, but they said to be sure to do it...are they giving away something?

Oh, and by the way, their system requires Adobe Flash, so while you are waiting why not make sure you have the latest Flash from the Adobe website(9.something) and be sure to also install the 'Air' part of the application. During the install watch for another button about installing 'Air.'

I have tried everything and I'm just in tears here. No luck whatsoever.

I have even tried using 'contact us' link a couple of times, but nobody is responding at all.

I'll have to stick with intercot. It's a shame - I was looking forward to being a 'Day 1' / Beta person at long last, but nope...

Hope everyone has fun with the game - the test clips on the site look good!

For the short time I was on earlier I saw a couple staff members their titles were

VFK_Willa
VFK_Lion
VFK_Wolf

Sound like people we know?

They did say it would probably be the biggest beta in history...this is probably why it is a bit rough around the edges of the logon

Don't give up about being on, it can only get better!

I just got in after a lot of trying. Got as far as stonehenge and my character vanished on leaving the room. Also, if I understand correctly, the boy characters will look alike and the girl characters will look the same until they activate the personalization controls.

Chris, did they give you anything or do anything special? They allude to that on the homepage.

I can't get to the site at all It just can't be displayed oh well looks like Figgiefig will not rise from the ashes afterall

[WDWfanatic742]

Try now Jeff. Wasn't working for me when you made your post, but the site is slowly working for me...
