Exteel open beta pushed back a day

In an announcement late last night on their official site, NCsoft officially pushed back the start date for the Exteel open beta from today to Thursday the 15th, though they did not state a reason. They also revealed that while they were going to enact a complete character wipe of characters from the closed beta, players will be able to retain their characters from the open beta through to the final release, a welcome surprise to many who put in some time with the beta. As an added bonus, players who were part of the closed beta test will get access to the game later today as originally scheduled, giving them a one day head start on the rest of the public, as well as a special "Sky Blue" paint can to thank them for their efforts.

If rootin' tootin' anime-style mechs swinging swords and blasting each other with machine guns sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'll be bringing you our first-hand impressions of Exteel later today, so stay tuned.
