That's what happens when thousands of people try to download the same file I've given up on download managers (was using Orbit) and gave the good old firefow a try and it works a lot better (and faster) !

Good for you. I tried good old Firefox, worse and older IE and a download manager and the things always finds a way to stop at some point and stay still. It's quite persistent, I must admit...
Edit: Yup, here it failed one more time. Enough for tonight. My temp folders are full of incomplete downloads and all engaged applications will soon start deleting themselves out of confusion.

Try scrolling down the Terms of Service ... you're supposed to read that before agreeing

I've already tried that, haven't made any difference. Maybe they have an advance system that can actually tell if I have read it or not...
I guess I better read it then. =D

SPOILER ALERT!
At the point at which I am about to get the (probably) first crystal mine, the environment just stops reacting to clicks. I physically cannot do anything, except enter and exit the hero interface. Is anyone experiencing this issue (I know that it may be that my PC is tired after a hard day's work).

If you're using a hero with 0 unit in his army, try adding one unit. Armyless heroes canNOT interact with any map building except entering cities.

Guys, for those ones among you having difficulties accessing the beta download link, try doing so via Google Chrome or a browser other than Mozilla. Ubisoft seems to have not tested its pages adequately with Firefox, for whatever reason. I faced problems both during the stress test download and now with the beta using Firefox. Chrome worked like a charm though, I am now downloading at a constant 1,4 MB/sec.
@Avirosb: You lose the batle immediately, no combat.

Firefox 5 worked perfectly for me. Any attempt with a download manager resulted in a failed download (crash at 25 and 26% then full download but corrupted file).

It allows you to give your primary hero the entire army from your secondary hero, if you're using that hero to transport troops. It eliminates the need to split stacks to leave one pikeman in your secondary hero's army, which saves a few seconds every time you do it.
That's the main reason for it, but it's the only reason that matters, and I think it's a good change.
Although it doesn't make up for the lack of a town screen.

Do a Start Menu search - but the shortcut should have been created in your Start Menu program files.

It seems to be a problem with using the private beta key, a way to get around it is to disconnect your internet while game is trying to connect to Conflux, hit esc till you can select single or multiplayer, then reconnect your internet. Playing this way though prevents you from using dynasty abilities and it only does autosaves.

Lol, no, they just cannot enter battles.....
For those who have downloaded the 28th June Beta, how big is the download file? 8 GB?
