D&D Next Playtest Hotline

[Morrus]

The D&D Next playtest has officially begun, and WotC knows you have questions about the materials you've received. Don't worry -- they're there for you! From June 14th - June 16th, the D&D Next Playtest Hotline will be open! The in-house D&D experts, featuring R&D team members, will be standing by to answer your pressing rules and mechanics questions related to the current D&D Next playtest packet.

Hotline will be open 6/14 - 6/16 from 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM (PST) so start queuing up those questions. That's three days for four hours each day. Call (800) 878-3326 from anywhere within North America.

*Please note that at this time, the D&D Next Playtest Hotline is only available for calls originating within North America. Phone lines not open until hotline opens.

DDN Hotline: What will you ask?

Apparently there is going to be a hotline number we (North America only, for some reason) can call June 14-16 to ask all of our D&D Next-related questions.

So given the opportunity, what would you ask?

If they stop playtesting and revealing their design goals... it seems as half of the players don´t really read before exploding...

I am starting to doubt that the playtest will help them a lot.

Merging this with the existing thread.

Yeah, sorry Morrus. Didn't see the news item until an hour after my post.

I want to know what their schedule is looking like for releases and in what order we're going to get material. Apparently we're getting a new playtest packet in early July, but what's going to be in it? Is it going to have new pregens or a new adventure, or just updates of the current adventure? They seem to have a rough schedule in mind for when they're going to release what since they've said chargen will probably come "late summer", and considering the reaction to the playtest packet so far I can understand why they don't want to state what it is publicly even with disclaimers everywhere that it's subject to change at any time and a rough draft and isn't finalized and blah blah...but I really want to know when to expect what.
