Looks like beta is all but confirmed to be rolling out tonight or tomorrow. Hooray!

Hm?

 

[Door2Dawn]

You mean via the annual pass?

No. I never signed up for the annual pass. My sub ended around 4.0 and haven't activated it since.

 

[Rokam]

Hm?

MMO champion has a beta live stream up with "soon". Though it may just be a FnF alpha, but hopefully full beta. Need something to wash away the bad taste of ME3. Also a Blood Legion dude has his stream up saying beta live stream coming soon, possibly tonight.

Where's the live stream?

 

[Rokam]

MMO Champion has a stream up teasing some Mists of Pandaria. They very rarely stream. I don't know why they have it up and when they are suppose to start but maybe MMOC knows something we don't about how soon the beta actually is?

Hope something gets announced soon.

^there.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

^there.

Oh wow, never knew they had a twitch.tv stream.

So I was looking on his blog and he flat out says

Blizzard finally dropped a “very close” about the beta, I’m pretty confident that if nothing terrible happens we’ll see it on Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully I’ll survive the stress of one more expansion.

 

[strafer]

I love the smell of beta in the morning.

dat data mining

 

[Rokam]

On the side there's a link to a Blood Legion members live stream, he's talking about random shit if you want background noise. Looks like it may be Friends and Family as the BL guy said that he has the client just waiting for the invite. .

 

[kurohana]

MoP is showing up in my account, so it's definitely rolling out.

 

[Naka]

Confirmed, there is a working link to a downloadable exe as well. I'm on my work computer so I wont actually try to install it though.

Not on mine .

 

[Mairu]

Not on mine .

mine either

 

[kurohana]

You guys just need to do boring Hyjal transmog runs with David Kim.

 

[Rokam]

Oh well back to farming rhinos.

Where? Under account/management/?

This guy on the blood legion stream seems to think it's friends, family, and press only.

Are you two annual pass subs?

 

[FieryBalrog]

lol.

omg Hyjal so boring.

 

[Angry Grimace]

I'm just worried that Blizzard is using the beta as a distraction from the fact that DS is going to be "the patch" for another 5-6 months.

 

[Rokam]

Yeah more than likely 4-5 more months of it .

It's in the account section. I didn't get an e-mail yet. I don't have the annual pass.

So are you friend, family, or press? That's what blood legion seems to think tonight is only.

Under "Your Game Accounts"

I just took this screenshot. I have the file WoW-5.0.0-Beta-enUS-Installer.exe that I just downloaded from it as well.

 

[kurohana]

I'm friends with someone that works at Blizzard, yeah.

Launcher doesn't seem to be working for me at the moment.

Ah okay, guess us peasants still have to wait.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

What about you Naka?

 

[Naka]

I'm just a regular person so I'm not sure how I have it yet . That being said I've been in ever Blizzard beta since WC3 and was also in the first WoW F&F Alpha.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Regular people unite!

I'm hoping for some great stuff to come out of this!

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Ugh, not sure if I should F5 or not ><

 

[strafer]

Shit just got real.

 

[Naka]

Shit just got real.

I tried to load it up on my work comp (shhh dont tell), but the installer can't get data from their server yet. However my character copy to a test realm went through already!

 

[Door2Dawn]

I'm kinda regretting not taking advantage of the Annual Pass lol.

 

[Yoshichan]

Beautiful.

 

[Rokam]

So lets say Garrosh is tampering with demon blood like his pappy, that'd be a nice setup for a Burning Legion expansion. Multiple planets and such.

 

[Mairu]

a guildie of mine apparently got in but he didn't even buy the annual pass

 

[C.Dark.DN]

I hope my dumb sandy bridge notebook not showing my GPU in the uploaded specs until yesterday didn't put me further back on the priority list.

 

[CrashPrime]

My. Body. Is. Ready.

I really do hope their goals of making this more about "getting out in the world" works. World PvP, yessss plz.

 

[Tamanon]

Not showing up on mine. Guess I'm not in the first wave:/

Guess I'll continue to level my Belf Pally then.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Don't have Mists beta showing up in mine, though I didn't get into the Cataclysm beta either. Not currently subscribed though.

I do have the Diablo 3 beta, so it doesn't bug me too much if I don't get into a WoW one. Being in the WoW betas spoils more content than I think I would like. Especially to do it all over again on live.

 

[kurohana]

Well it was working, but still isn't downloading a specific file~ Oh well. Should be soon.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

They got to the Install button on the MMO-Champ stream!

 

[Andiie]

So much for my "it'll be three weeks" talk.

 

[Naka]

They got to the Install button on the MMO-Champ stream!

Yep that showed up on mine as well, but fails immediately after.

 

[Tomat]

Oh god why

I just resubbed

 

[Weenerz]

Can someone post the stream? I don't see it on MMO.

 

[Andiie]

There's nothing going on atm but here it is.

[Measley]

I haven't been loyal to my Blizzard overlords, so I highly doubt I'll be getting a beta invite.

To all of you getting it, make sure you do your jobs and make this expansion awesome! We're counting on you.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Word is that apparently the Mac installer is working now.

 

[Agkel]

Why do people get excited about playing a beta for the new content? I mean you'll ruin the "fresh" experience when it comes to live and lose all progress.

I understand if you want to try out changes to your current class or perhaps if you are an elite raid guild, to start figuring out fights early but regular Joe?

I do enjoy seeing screenshots and discussion of changes and such though.

*shrug*I always seem to get into most mmo betas and never bother to play outside of checking class changes or things like that... Side note: I got into almost every wave of the secret world and never bother even downloading the client but thats mostly because I hate Funcom and how bad they burned us AoC players

Boredom.

Plus, I just want to play a monk so bad.

 

[Einchy]

No first wave for me either. Sadness.

I'm actually quite thankful that I got into the SWTOR beta. Saved me 60 bucks.
