Dauntless Open Beta Goes Live Today
Dauntless' Open Beta is set to go live today. Players wanting to hop into the open beta will be able to do so some time later today. (The game was still in maintenance the last time I checked.)
If you were already playing in closed beta, you'll need to update. If you haven't, you can download the client from the game's website. Don't worry, the client will download fine. You just can't log in yet.
In the meantime, you can get into the spirit by checking out the Opening Cinematic released earlier this week.

They've said that the tutorial island was harder for PC's to run than the rest of the game and that it has now been resolved - so if you had issues, it might be worth trying again! Queues are still incredibly high however, but in honesty - the company is giving better updates on reddit than i've seen of most new MMO's.
I think this is one of the next massive f2p's, the queues certainly indicate it and, critically, the game seems good enough to support that member base.
