No problems!
Very straightforward with a couple exceptions
It was okay but a few things could be improved
Confusing with several problems
It was a mess!

Hello,
I'm unable to predownload the game. It says, "Failed to start download". I opened a case, so we'll see what happens.
EDIT: Figured it out:
Turned out the Uplay client set my file location to the D: drive instead of C: drive. I don't even have a D: drive. Changed file location to C: and it is now starting to download.

I voted mess. Let me explain:
I've been hyped for this game pretty much since it was announced. I played the Pre-Alpha for which I actually had to borrow a controller (and I suck with those). Still enjoyed the game, but had to reinstall a few times till to get it running. In the Alpha I couldn't participate at all even though I had a key because the game would just keep crashing when I launched it, even though my specs are fine. I sincerley hope this won't be the case in the Beta.
Now I got into the Beta via the Scars Site, deligthed to find out there was a way to get guaranteed access if you put a little bit of effort and research into it.
So I got the key and went to enter it on the designated site. (http://forhonor.ubisoft.com/game/de-de/beta-redeem/). I got an Error 404. Took me a bit to fix it but changing the address to http://forhonor.ubisoft.com/game/en-US/beta-redeem/ luckily solved that. Shortly after I got the "You've been chosen" E-Mail and thought everything was good now.
But this was only the part were problems really started. I was expecting the beta to show up at some time for preload and was confused that by 25th of January it still wasn't in my library. So I did a little google search and found out that the preload actually already had started on the 24th...
I immediatley filed a support ticket and also found out that I by far wasn't the only one having this issue. Probably the most frustrating thing here was that we didn't even get an official statement until today. Support took a while and when yesterday I finally got a mail stating it was fixed it still wouldn't show up. Finally this morning it was there.
So I could have played the full Beta but like this I'll have to wait until tomorrow since my internet (while being fast enough to get a solid ping of sub 40 to other EU players) is pretty slow, and I likely won't have that much time on the weekend.

I voted No problems, however I wish I could change my vote.
The process was fine, preload was fine etc BUT,
Just a few minutes ago It's come to my attention there is a second update of 2gb to download in order to get into it.
This might not seem like much to most people in this day and age, but for some of us who're stuck on terrible download speeds, that's another hour or 2 before we can get in.
Yes it's a beta, I haven't paid for it etc. However things like this, don't give me encouragement to make a day one purchase and expect to be able to play it as soon as it goes live.
I hope the game blows me away to counter this downfall, but we'll see. Would be nice if preload was actually for the entirety of the preload, not just most of it.

Maybe you want to send invites out before people can check their profile, or even worse, invite friends whilst their own invite has not been received yet!
Just a thought on preventing confusion..

Couldn't access the website from my computer, Firefox and Microsoft edge couldn't load the website. Had to use my phone, only then did it work. Lots and lots of useless tracking scripts trying to be loaded when loading the beta page.

I was able to get the email, follow the instructions, pre-download for PS4.
The Friend codes should have been on the screen, NOT from forcing them to create an account and duplicating the friends thing . .
Piggy-back on the ps4 list, SONY will let devs use the friends list already there . . .
As for the game, Loads well, I even tried remote-Play, I'm at work, Couldn't wait, "Lunch" is doing this . . .
Haven't been able to get into the multi-player yet, did creation & Tutorials, No issues there . .
I will post more as i play it . . Like it so far .. Thanks !
Cheers, GoBoltz !
