World of Warcraft Beta Signups This Week!
At 6:00 pm PST on Wednesday, January 28th, the signup period for the World of Warcraft Beta Test will officially begin. We will provide a link to the beta-test application right here in the news section at that time. Testers are not going to be chosen on a first-come, first-served basis, so you will be able to submit an application and receive equal consideration anytime during the signup period, which will end on Wednesday, February 4th at 6:00 pm PST. Please note that multiple submissions from the same household will result in complete disqualification.

For this initial phase of the World of Warcraft beta test, we will only be able to accept applications from Canada, Korea, and the US. The test for Europe and other countries around the world will happen later this year. Please do not contact us for further information regarding the beta test; we will be posting a FAQ in the days ahead.

[mchammer75040]

Yippy...maybe I'll get into this one... :E

 

[Maskirovka]

i just hope that WoW doesn't suck like every other MMORPG. I have my hopes up because it's blizzard...but gah...i had my hopes up for Star Wars Galaxies too...and that game sucks a big nut.

and Pressure, you have the most annoying signature ever.

 

[Sprafa]

Lol, how could you NOT have been chosen for planetside? It was an open beta!

Ok, maybe not Planetside. I think i didn't d/l it because of my limit (1 gig per month)

[AmishSlayer]

I never get in any betas... If I got in this one I'd be very very surprised.

 

[dawdler]

Bah!!! As usual us europeans never get to join the fun... ;(

Wonder what will happen if you just write some city in the US and some fake address? :naughty:

They probably would mail you a CD to that address? Downloading MMORPGs for beta tests takes too long, then again, Blizzard's always done DLs for their tests.. hm.

6:00 PM PST, that's 9:00 PM EST?

 

[Maxi]

I dunno, since im European...

 

[Shuzer]

6:00 PM PST, that's 9:00 PM EST?

Yep.

Maxi, as Blizzard said, their European beta test will be later this year, so it's not like they're completely leaving you guys out

 

[Maxi]

Yeah I know.. but it sucks I wanna beta too! The only real beta i've been in is the Steam alpha v1 :/

 

[dawdler]

Yep.

Maxi, as Blizzard said, their European beta test will be later this year, so it's not like they're completely leaving you guys out

Not like they are leaving us out?! If it where a few months, they would say soon. Not later this year. Meaning in about christmas time. And they can handle korea but not europe?! That's just mean.

lol, well, if they plan on releasing the game this year, it can't be THAT far off for you guys

 

[Maxi]

Or it is, and we won't get to beta at all, or only a few months.

 

[ray_MAN]

I have to get into this beta. I am on a PRG streak at the moment. KoTOR, Diablo II, and DE:IW.
