That would be me✋

My thanks.

Good to finally know the date.
On a bad side for us Europeans this is “get ready for Classic Fall” not Summer.

Oh well 3½ months it is.
Have a good summer guys let’s get back to this at fall.

Have you ever opted into their beta programs? You don’t need active subs for those or to participate in them. You just have to opt in.

lmao for real. Expected it but hoped they weren’t bs’ing us. Not much of a “classic summer” when it starts basically at the tail end of summer.

Go to your account management and to the beta section and there is a new option that is WoW Classic Beta. Check the box. My sub is inactive and once preferences were updated it said “Update successful.”

“If you’re eager to claim your character name in WoW Classic, take note: we’ll be opening character creation on Tuesday, August 13.** Players with an active subscription or game time on their account will be able to create up to three characters per World of Warcraft account. We’ll have more information on realm names closer to launch, but rest assured—you’ll have plenty of time to figure out your plans for realm domination!”

I agree. Early fall.

Same, that means I want to get in, that doesn’t mean they’ll pull me in to beta acess.

EVERY OTHER BETA post has had the following format

With maintenance on the test realms, we’re bringing up the BFA Beta test today. For those of you who tested the Alpha with us, you can expect a clean slate with regard to characters.

For those of you just joining us, thank you for testing! Please have a look at our various subforums for Beta discussion:

BFA Beta General Discussion (this one)
BFA Beta Bug Report
BFA Beta Zones and Leveling
BFA Beta Dungeons, Island Expeditions, and Raids
BFA Beta Items and Classes
BFA Beta Warmode and PvP

We greatly appreciate you posting on-topic in each of these forums.

They have NEVER included:

To fill our pool of beta and stress test participants, we’ll be choosing dedicated players who meet select criteria from both the WoW Classic beta opt-in and the standard Warcraft beta opt-in.

They specifically said WoW Classic Beta requires a sub.

Yea but I asked to kind of make people aware.

It specifically states in the announcement that having a sub is apart of the criteria to be chosen.
