It’s going to be a while for me because I live in a terribly served rural area where having two non-bonded ~3Mbps/512kbps dry-loop DSL connections (for ~$128/month) is my best choice…supposed to have had a fiber company come through in February, but that’s not happened. I’m on their waiting list (and gave them an easement to bury across my property), yet…nada. :dracthyr_cry_animated:

I usually get one a few cycles in, and I’m just an altaholic. Hope it’s the case here as well cause I wanna see how the classes feel after the talent rework.

They did that for Pandaria expansion. They regretted it instantly. The problem was, they didn’t get TESTERS who reported bugs. They got early-access players who just wanted to play a new version of WoW. Hence why they will never do it again.

yeah but the issue is that was back before CE and RTWF and Mythic+ now folks wanna see what changes are coming and even make suggestions on things to make it more fluid and competitive

You may want to tell them to upgrade the wet string they are using. :wink:

I am regular people, and I seem to have been invited, at least unofficially? It’s available for download on my battle.net thingy, and I’m actually currently downloading/installing it.
I did check the appropriate boxes, months ago, to say that I was willing to beta test, but got no notice about it happening today. Just happened to run across it while trying to do something else. In the past, Blizz has at least sent an email about this sort of thing, so I honestly don’t know if it’s available to everyone, or just to some. If the latter, hope you get access soon.

I have not been invited and cannot see it in my bnet and have been opted in since like the first couple days you could opt in :confused: sad

I would try a restart.

No guarantees, but you never know.

Good luck beta testers! You’ve got - correction: we’ve got! - about 8 weeks to report all the bugs ( maybe less if you want them fixed :slight_smile: )

There was a time I would’ve been thrilled for those speeds.

That time was 20 years ago.

My parent’s house is about 8 miles from the one I bought when I moved back here ~8 years ago: in early 2000 GTE rolled out DSL to their house back then (it’s on the edge of town; however, I am farther out though on an edge of a state highway)… They still have DSL though a bonded 24mbps connection.

Oh god looking at the VDH talents… and they are seriously hot garbage, they didn’t think about build types at all… They force you to get soul furnace (an ST talent) to pick up spirit bomb (an AOE talent) :sob:

And they put last resort… which is a mandatory talent, as a capstone :anger:

Yeah looking at it… these talents make Vengeance DOA

I am the most rando of Randos. Don’t expect an invite.
But - I sure hope the people who do get invites TEST the game and don’t use Beta as an excuse to just play early.
TEST the game!!!
