I didn’t expect so many pc players I wonder if participating in the Inquisition Beta testing was a factor in my/our success? Most likely. I've helped out with beta testing stuff for BioWare since before SWTOR released, Dragon Age Keep tester etc. I'm sure they keep track of the accounts that have helped them before.

There is no indication of anything downloading in the lower left hand corner, under your avatar … so to me it seems it is stuck.
Close out Origin (not just minimize) and open Origin back up. Try downloading the game again.
The "preparing" word should disappear almost immediately, to be replaced by "pause download" in the orange rectangle.
Once it has finished downloading and installing, the "Preload is now available" will be replaced by "Pre-loaded" in the notes.
At first, after install is complete, the orange rectangle will be "grayed out" with the word "Play" in it …
But later, the orange rectangle will go away … probably to return when the game unlocks tomorrow.

The only testing I've done was one of the beta stress tests prior to SWTOR's launch... and I'm still playing it

Callout to: (the gang) Because we CAN'T discuss the test feedback HERE, I've opened a thread in the EA Closed Forum (which is safe to share as it cannot be accessed without permission). answers.ea.com/t5/General-Feedback/Call-to-BSN-forumites-to-muster/td-p/7233998If you are able to and want to say hi there and use it as a location to safely share feedback, that would be amazing as otherwise, I'm going to be 'Billy no mates' who just made a thread everyone ignored... Thank you TestersPCPS4Xbox One

Quick question, do I need to quickly switch to windows 10 for this Alpha or will it run on Windows 7 too?

Quick question, do I need to quickly switch to windows 10 for this Alpha or will it run on Windows 7 too? I don't think anyone knows... it would be great to find out though. Worst case: buy a cheap 250gb SSD, just install win 10 & Anthem, and swap it out when you need to.

Worst case: buy a cheap 250gb SSD, just install win 10 & Anthem, and swap it out when you need to. Well I've got the windows 10 update anytime installer to quickly install 10 with everything from 7 carried over. Then got 1 week to revert back to current win 7 restore point. Though not sure I want to find out if it runs win 7 last minute if nobody knows. Once game finishes downloading, I'm going to switch to win 10 and play it safe.

I supposed I can move over to the couch with W10 if I need to, but ugh. I'll be trying it on 7 first, I'll mention in the EA locked thread whether or not it works.

There's a free upgrade to win 10 anytime installer still available online. It will upgrade you to 10 in no time and keep all your win 7 settings. The temp folder to restore to win 7 lasts about a week, so just install win 10 for Anthem the easy way then you'll also have an easy quick way to revert back to 7.

I have a totally separate PC I can use, the only downside of having to game over there is I don't have a 144 Hz monitor on it. That and it's a little bit uncomfortable to use M+KB on a couch. My experience with my Win10 PC is what's keeping me from upgrading on my main desktop. I utterly and thoroughly detest everything about 10. I use it only as a last resort.

So you can play Anthem closed Alpha. Besides, it's only for the weekend then you can revert back to win 7 via system restore. You won't lose anything, and it's a press of a button to install and another press for uninstall. Personally myself am only installing win 10 for the Anthem weekend then back to 7 because ME3mp has frame rate mirco-stuttering issues on win 10 on my current rig.

My guess is you will be able to play the game on Win7, but the catch is if there is any problem you are on your own for the game was only tested on Win10. That is how a lot of software works for you can try to run it on any OS you want to, but they aren't going to provide support if you have problems. I don't think this is as big as going from WinXP to Win7 because that was adding in 64bit processor support.

As someone else mentioned (maybe in this thread?) it's going to come down to DirectX rendering. If it's using DX12 it's gonna be locked to Win10.

TheDjbixo - PC (I cant share a screenshoot, right?) No. Apparently all we can share is: "Anthem has a closed Alpha and I'm taking part."
So, Qui-Gon GlenN7 I don't think we are even allowed to say whether we liked it or not. Sorry. If I'm interpreting Sofa's OP correctly I think that saying that we like/don't like what we've played is about all we really could say. We are not revealing anything other than our own personal reaction/feeling to the alpha. I could be wrong I guess.
