LAST CALL FOR DRINKS.
No, they are not. Alpha is invite-only early on, but you can opt into Beta.
Source: I’ve gotten invited to every single Beta since Legion, and also got invited into numerous Alpha tests including the first public DF Alpha build.

It’s possible alpha is already happening with strict NDAs and we just haven’t heard about it. If they can keep Plunderstorm secret they can keep TWW alpha secret.
Not only possible, it’s guaranteed. Alpha is part of the development process. It’s not going to just be skipped over.
They haven’t used NDA’s on F&F alpha in a long, long time.
No, it is a problem. Alpha tests exist for a reason and that’s to start getting feedback and find issues. Alpha isn’t a gameplay phase, it’s a testing phase and having fewer eyes on it isn’t great.

This means it is the end… of the world… of Warcraft! Can you feel like I can feel it champion? The cold foreboding eerie silence in the room. Icy and lonely to the touch is the air on my very skin!
I sense Lich King 2.0
There must always be a Lich King! At last the Scourge will run rampant and the end will being as the Devourers are set lose upon us all.
I don’t think there are NDAs for the F&F Alpha, but I can 100% guarantee you that there’s a closed Alpha right now and that this is the exact reason why literally every WoW content creator all said “not streaming until Wednesday” at the same time.

No one said there’d be no alpha. Most people are expecting it to drop this week.
Am I crazy or does it say right there that “We have begun the alpha testing phase”.
Why is everyone expecting it this week? Didn’t they just release the Timewalking beta? I see a lot of content creators talking about that
Just another thread to put on ignore.

Because it’s on the roadmap between 10.2.6 and S4 and this week is the last chance for alpha to be where it’s supposed to be.
Not crazy but the link is about dragonflight
Alpha is going to their NDA / encrypted test servers as of MMO-Champions news the other day.
This means Alpha is on the way. Probably within the month with my educated guess. Beta will probably be 8 weeks after that.
everybody knows when tww launches is when alpha begins and dragonflight goes from beta to live. its how its always been with a xpac from blizzard. why are you freaking out? tww will have 2 years of beta
Okay, that makes sense now.
Blizz drops alpha’s like you drop your pants very slowly.
Well that didnt take long for zuma(clark) to come back to fear monger everyone again. He’ll never change, even after playing the victim last time lol.
