World Of Warcraft Beta Signups
 

http://www.blizzard.com/wow/

Can't wait..been playing DAOC for the past 2 years..tried FFXI but couldn't get into it..hope this game is good and hope I get into beta :D

Good luck to all when the day comes~

I've never beta tested a game before. I think I'll apply. That way if the game ends up sucking, you can all blame me. :) I'll defenatly have to read the FAQ when that appears.
Thanks for the notice.

Word of advice, when they ask you if you've ever had experience Beta testing other games, just say yes.

I'm the bastard who lies all the time and then can't be arsed downloading the Beta when I get accepted.

Sweet, maybe being in Korea will help me get in on the beta :)

I can't wait. :)

Looks like its gonna be a great game, I tried getting in the Diablo 2 beta back in the day, but I was under 18.. I would love to get in the beta for this game especially since it's free :) MMORPG's are too $$ for me, usually..

That's kinda like me. I've beta tested several MMORGs then I never buy the game when it's released :(
Of course most of the games I've beta tested I didn't think would be worth the money play after I'd seen the basics...

Of course I'm gonna sign up for this tomorrow :)

Noone who gets into the beta is going to know what the fuck they're doing anyways. Probably going to be a bunch of retards who don't understand what they're supposed to be doing, and demonstrating this by bitching about incomplete features.

Oh how much you put forth into human intelligence Phaenx....
By "noone" I assume you mean "Anyone" There is a thing called a FAQ to read, there are things to do. And ANYONE that signs up for a beta SHOULD KNOW.. that not everything is going to be complete. Thats why its called BETA and not DEMO. We're not signing up to play a game for free thats not complete... We're signing up to help the game get complete and be one sweet game. Playing it will be fun, but knowing I did my part to make the game Grade A material is why I beta test.

Actually, this is Blizzard's point. They want to simulate the game running with fucking idiots playing it. When the game is released, there will be people that bitch about features and non-features. I think it's smart to simulate the real-gaming world with a beta...better than letting all gamers who know what they're doing into it. That'd be simply concentrating on one market.

They have to make it user friendly for anyone so if stupid computer users can figure out what to do then they will be set.

Experience with MMORPG's is not always what they are looking for. Basically, you want to be representitive of a group they might not have many of. They want to get input from all different types of customers.

I hopped on that bitch at 9:00 P.M. EST exactly. Mega denial of service attack. WAY too mcuh traffic on that site at once. I wouldn't try it for at least a couple of days, at least until all this settles out a bit.

Signing up for world of warcraft beta?
 

Just curious how many of you are signing up for the world of warcraft beta and if any of you people get in see if wanna work together assuming many people get in. Cant imagine a ton of cd keys and the bnet site has crashed thanks to all the registering people

( registering started at 6 PM PST today and ends in a week, the choosing of people isnt determined by order of entry so dont rush just curious if people are interested/ how many knew

yah site is getting screwed up majorly atm :crazy:

Ha ha, www.worldofwarcraft.com got owned about 13 seconds after 9:00 EST. Oh well...guess I'll sign up tomorrow. :(

"Testers will NOT be selected on a first-come, first-served basis"
LOL!

Having played EQ for much much longer then I should have, WoW does look well done and I look forward to taking this game for a spin, be it in beta or live. Site still gasping for air too!

Hi,
Haha, I waited on their forums for about 30 minutes before it was launched... 2 minutes before the Beta signup went live, someone posted a legit link to the signup page. I managed to get in, fill out the form, and attempt to click "Continue" before it cut me off... I tried going back and clicking it once or twice but no luck. I just hope that those 3 times didn't count, or I'm disqualified :(. I'm not even going near the site any more until the weekend. Blizzard.com has added these updates:
and
Dear God... :crazy:
Thanks,
Manga

Signed up this morning. It was crazy last night. Just hope they will be able to put out a decent MMORPG. Looks good but hope content is there :>

Damn, Americans and Koreans only :(

Signed up this morning. I really don't think that MMORPG are for me (READ: Monthly subcription fees). I will get the code if I win and give it to a friend of mine.

Hi,
I managed to sign up too this morning. Oh, and it isn't only Americans and Koreans, Canadians are in, too.
Thanks,
Manga

canucks too! :)

1 linux death, 1 windows installation, and 1 borrowed graphics card later, I'm registered. *whew*

Hi,
LOL... you wouldn't believe how many people "borrowed" other's computers to sign up.
Thanks,
Manga

Whee.. I applied even though I'm not going to be back in Canada for almost a year!

Hahah..
Oh well.

Whee! I signed up. I hope this will be as good as it looks.

*crosses fingers* I signed up i better get to beta test!

no, really, the gfx card is from a friend 'cuz I can't afford one right now!! it's actually borrowed! :P

Thanks for the heads up! I signed up this morning, so hopefully I'll get in... Haven't had a MMORPG to play for a looong time...

Oh bugger. Now I won't get ANY work done! On the other hand, I might not get any beta testing done instead, which would suck too...

God, I wish I had more time..

damnit that im european ;)
