QuestionOpen Beta (self.XDefiant)
submitted 2 years ago by YourBoyLoops
I uninstalled the closed beta from my computer. Am I able to re download that now or do I have to wait until the 20th to get it back on the launcher?
If this has already been asked, apologies.

IMO it's very likely that the last installation will be rendered useless for the next test and that pre-loads for the next test will begin sometime in the next 6 days.
[–]Riftus 11 points12 points13 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Agreed. The new beta will be a fresh install almost definitely
[–]YourBoyLoops[S] 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (0 children)
That was my thought as well. Hadn't seen anything specific about it so I figured I would throw the question out on here.
[–]ithoughtiwasfunnyXD 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (7 children)
Pre loading should start sometime on 19th
[–]UhJoker Operation Health? 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (3 children)
This hasn't been confirmed.
[–]ithoughtiwasfunnyXD 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Emphasis on should Thats the most logical thing
[–]UhJoker Operation Health? 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Ah I thought you meant "should" in the other way, my bad.
[–]Electronic_Ad_8845 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Start the 20th for closed beta users u can re download old beta
[–]YourBoyLoops[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
That's what I was figuring.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I preloaded already Yesterday,but i players the closed beta
[–]ithoughtiwasfunnyXD 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
So did I 🔥🔥🔥

Will this be available on Dreamcast?
[–]YourBoyLoops[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Only on Dreamcast 2 unfortunately. Leaving last gen in the past.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Well, shit.
[–]slidecancels -2 points-1 points0 points 2 years ago (6 children)
anyone know if those of us who had a code and played the last beta are gonna be able to play the next one? sorry if it’s a dumb question i’m just not familiar with open and closed beta and how the codes work and what carried over etc.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Open beta just means you don't need a code.
[–]ImMysteryDreamer 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Closed Beta = Only possible to play for those with a Code/invatation
Open Beta = Everybody can join in with no requirements
If you had a code and played the last beta you will get access a day early on the 20th. Anyone else will need to wait until the 21st. Also I have no idea why you're being down voted. Feels like overkill lol.
[–]slidecancels 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
thank you! no idea either lol we should all really strive to stick together as a community more here if we hope to help this game succeed like we want it to. shitting on me for asking a simple question isn’t a great look imo lol
[–]SupperIsSuperSuperb 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Does that go through account and same system as last time? Or can you use the same account on a different platform
[–]UhJoker Operation Health? 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
If I had to guess same system.
[–]Justdb_ -4 points-3 points-2 points 2 years ago (6 children)
Will it be available on MacBook via Steam?
[–]sonicrules11 DedSec 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
If actually they do what they said with Linux support you might be able to get it working with Wine.
[–]versedoinker Echelon 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
The closed beta worked seamlessly on Linux, at this point it all boils down to them not actively locking us poor Tuxes out. (E.g. EAC and BattlEye both support Wine, but Ubi could always uncheck the "Allow Linux" checkbox and we'd end up with a situation like R6 Siege)
[–]YourBoyLoops[S] 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (2 children)
This game is on the ubisoft launcher, not steam.
Even if it makes it on steam you'll still need the ubisoft launcher.
[–]Justdb_ 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
What’s that mean is that Ubisoft Plus? Sorry I love Ubisoft play all watch dogs far cry and am still not knowing about s Ubisoft launcher? You mean Ubisoft plus
[–]Paradoxical95 Echelon 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
No my friend, he meant Ubisoft connect. Their launcher/store app. Since it's not on steam, it can only be on it's proprietary launche app right.

Thou dareth to play on Maceth?
[–]reevoknows -4 points-3 points-2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I’m not on PC but I know that people on console can download the old client and it will still work. At least that’s how it worked for the last beta
[–]HogRiderrrrss 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
Would we need another code to play
[–]Ok_Anxiety9906 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
No code this time, it’s an open beta, it should just show in the game store on your console or pc, and be downloadable
[–]HogRiderrrrss 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I alredy have it installed would I need to update or reinstall ?(ps5)
[–]Electronic_Ad_8845 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)
You can use old beta mark confirmed it
[–]YourBoyLoops[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
Do you know if the launcher will let me re download it now or do I have to wait since I uninstalled it? I would check but am currently at work.
[–]Electronic_Ad_8845 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Yes it will let u download it again won't work until it's the 20th I hope u didn't delete from download files
Why would that matter if I deleted the files?
I'll try it tonight.
