Hope everything’s well on your end!

Us? A bit anxious -- we’re on the verge of launching the Closed Beta of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game and we’re cooking up a special event connected to that. It’s called Kill the Servers!, it’s taking place on September 23rd and 27th, and it will allow some of you to play GWENT even before the Closed Beta!

Metaphorically speaking, Kill the Servers! is designed to punch our hosting backend in the gut. We want to see how everything reacts to a lot of you joining the battlefield simultaneously. Once you blow out the fuses, and you probably will, we can fix things so the Closed Beta runs smooth when we launch on October 25th.

Long story short, we want to stress test the servers and we need your help to make that happen.

To me, this sounds like they're begging people to come try the game. I wonder if they've found little interest in their product.

It strikes me as a pretty good idea. Torture testing a new server setup under real use is something I'd encourage every online game to do. A lot of unhappy customers and bad publicity for some of the big publishers could have been avoided this way.

They are letting anyone on those days with a code try it before close beta starts.

No matter how much CD does for their customers, some people will always find fault.
