Excellent! I just got the email from the folks over at Live Messenger and I am eager to download. I hope that it's a good one!

What the hell? Where is my email M$?

Whoa, chill FPS Wolverine! Your email is probably on its way. This email is circulating between thousands and thousands of people right now and your mail program may just be slow! I'm sure it's on it's way if you are part of the MANAGED beta program.

uhm.. i am in beta but i hate the new Windows Live Messenger Look... using MSN Messenger 7.5 instead.. anyways.. whats new in this build? still looks the same so :s not worth it.. it looks like such a to-be-used-by-kids program :s 7.5 is much more professional

where about do i download this, im in the beta already. link please

If you truly are in the MS Connect program and have received an official Microsoft/MSN Beta invitation, then you should receive an email sent to the account you registered your Connect with regarding where to download it.

any screenshots, comparing the last version and this one, since alot of you are saying it doesnt look the same....

Someone ought to be posting them soon.

Holy crap...the interface is BUTT UGLY. It came up orange by default, and I almost threw up. Are the UI designers over in Seattle all smoking something?

(By the way, if anybody still wants an invite, just e-mail [email protected] and I'll hook you up.)

    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
    • New dev usually means more trash. I also despise that they censored the 1 remake.
