Ok so with all the flaming that was going on last month I decided to go underground with the dev work even to the dedicated testers, as I felt this was the only way I could get things done effectively.
I'm pleased to announce Kaos is now at a playable beta stage, we would like to have a full 2 week play test from as many players as possible, and bugs to be reported as normal in the relevant section on our forums.
The server will be wiped after this testing period. Then we will go ahead and go live.
So the Final Stage of testing is
finally here. There will be 80 Testing spots available on a first come, first serve basis. There will be a wipe after this stage as stated above, and once all bugs are fixed from this stage we will go live, Maximum Time frame for testing we are looking at 2 weeks solid gameplay testing.

Changelog V1.10
New Additions:
Dungeon Raids / Instances
As promised we have added a few dungeons with more to be opened on further testing. The Idea is to give you an incentive to group hunt, all raids will require atleast 5 players to enter. There is a special exp system for these dungeon raids, where you don't lose exp for grouping and you get more than standard soloing.
Dungeon raids / instances can be accessed by only one group at a time. There are notices outside the instance that check the dungeon every 5 minutes and speak at the entrance to let waiting groups know the status.
New Items Added
Added 62 armours covering characters up to level 250
added 17 boots covering characters up to level 300
New NPCs
Added a total of 105 npcs covering wood, metal, leather, cloth and animal parts for cashing up on the loot from mobs.
Graphical Updates
The ongoing client graphical changes continues, minimaps, items, GUI little extras, you will likely notice changes throughout your travels.
Updates:
All systems are now complete, may still need a few tweaks if bugs are found, but we're looking ready to get things moving
