Beta Keys now available

It is now possible for you to obtain access to the Shadowlands Beta via limited-use “keys”.
We are providing some WoW community content creators with the ability to reward access to the Shadowlands Beta.
These Beta access rewards are not for sale or resale. Offers of Shadowlands Beta access for sale or auction are false, and should be reported as such to the entity where they’re listed.
Thank you!

It’s right in the OP man. Come on.

And oddly, I saw a Worgen Druid in flight form, hovering in Boralus, named Kitten, and /w to ask if it was you. They never responded, but obviously, it wasn’t you.

Directly in person in some shady back room probably.

My druid has an equally cool name imo, but I spend a lot of time on it vs my priest. I don’t feel comfortable posting with it, since the people I frequently talk to already abuse the forum system as it is. Lol

It says “Keys”. They’re using terminology we’re used to but the process is different.

It is poorly worded, and it’s probably why the word “keys” is in quotes.

Ah so the keys, not keys thing.

Maybe we didn’t watch the same streamers, but many of the ‘top’ names in WoW streaming offer cash donations to get giveaway rewards already.

I noticed on the launcher there is a Beta option. Although I prefer to wait and play the finished game.

I’m sure you have clips available as evidence. Because I’m also fairly sure that this is against Twitch’s TOS.

I have little interest to beta test this when they have no interest in opening up covenants. I already accepted its going to be an unbalanced nightmare.

Yep, it is. I have no desire to take down any streamers, what they do and how they do it, I don’t care.

I’m simply describing why I feel the way I do about beta ‘keys’.

Edit: That’s also why I have named no names.

It is but I’ve also seen people do giveaways that give subs more of a chance at winning than regular viewers.

Kind of late to open up beta like this when prepatch is already on the PTR IMVHO.

:+1:

Convenient.

That’s different, since you do still have a chance without being a sub.

I said I was trying!

Attribute whatever agenda you like to me.

I’m gonna continue the discussion I was already having lol

The only comment on their post about it is pretty hilarious though.

Seems fine. They are pretty meticulous with who they invite and they’ve been pretty good on feed back compared to previous testing.

I feel it was more just done as a heads up - to not fall for any scams and more just transparency more than anything. They are definitely trying to get the most bang for their buck in terms of marketing and in a day of streaming, content creation, it’s definitely a route many companies are taking.

No - no they have NOT gotten better at it. Big ticket items, they are still just as stubborn and stupid as they’ve been (perhaps even more so) than the last 2 expansions. ie: When NO ONE, not even their beloved streamers say Azerite system was good, they doubled/tripled down with it. Fast forward to Covenant system, and NO ONE, not even their beloved streamers say it’s a good system.

The launch is literally going to be a s**t show with faction tagging and quests that involve clicking items that disappear after one use with EVERY RETAIL TOON competing for the exact same quests and linear quest chains - shard’ing alone will NOT solve this issue. NPC’s will be stood on top of by mounts, etc, etc.
