Sub is requied to play it , but you can get invited without a sub.

Image getting invite, but not subbing.

I’m ok with that. Been in so many aphla/beta tests to know that it’s a limited time and launch is coming.

Unless they had some diabolical plan to not wipe the data and launch with the beta characters still intact. Then, beta invites because important.

Seems like wishful thinking to me, I don’t think this is the case

[Ristra-suramar (Ristra)]

The wording in the announcement does support this. They did not say invites are based in subscriptions but they ability to participate is.

Imagine not being able to enjoy all 10 hours of this furry bastards dancing’ and prancing!

Do you throw bread at the floor on the peanut butter side on purpose?

I really hope this is the case (I had been invited to the BfA beta without being subbed), but it would be nice if Blizzard can confirm how it works in this situation.

Tinfoil hat time! They worded that way on purpose. People will rush to sub for a chance at invite, then they’ll only invite non-subs to get more subs. It’s brilliant AND nefarious!

Hey man, those looking for a reason to jump back into a subscription gotta be baited as often as possible!

[Ironpelt-greymane]

It’s like my cell phone plan. I really want to go to pre-paid, but Verizon’s constant infrastructure improvements and shiny new phones lure me back in every time my contract expires. Then I’m filled with 2 years of buyers remorse, just like WoW expacs!!!

[Ristra-suramar (Ristra)]

And bundling is there to make it harder to let go.

[Ironpelt-greymane]

Yeah, the gb fiber at $60/month is hard to let go

Most likely will happen to me… and most people here.

I’d expect to not be in the beta, and just be pleasantly surprised if you do get an invite.

[Ristra-suramar (Ristra)]

That’s not vanilla. You are going to need to go ahead and tether you network through your cell phone for a more Classic connection

[Kanstilxd-tichondrius]

or use a tiny local company or something with really bad speeds lol… I got that ATT fiber tho

You’re a realist I see… well I’m an optimist. They’ll ask me to host a beta server in my home and I’ll have a 3ms ping. As you can see, In very optimistic and unrealistic!!! Dream big!!

Or get ISDN and pay by the MB…

[Ristra-suramar (Ristra)]

Ouch, you will need a 2nd job to cover that bill. No rank 14 for you.
