WoW Classic Stress Test 1

[citation needed] If they’ve made it crystal clear you shouldn’t have a problem giving your source?

Otherwise, all we’ve seen is a single paragraph. Where one sentence talks about opting in to the beta selection processs. And then the following sentence stipulates that an active subscription will be needed to participate. Where participate != getting selected.

If by a “a few hours later” you mean the next day, 24 hours after the focus window ended.

Yeah you can send me an invite too! I’ll be on…

In this case, the Developers live and work in California. The test servers are also primarily focused on North America. So the scheduling needed to do a focused stress test for Australia makes it more than a bit prohibitive and/or problematic. The “Stress Test” does actually run for the better part of two days as per their posts, so there are chances to play outside the focus window. It just won’t be at the time they’re seeking to see peak population on the stress test.

It’s right above the blue “Play” button in your launcher under WoW. If you don’t see it, I guess it may be because you only have one account on your WoW side of things, and I assume it’d show up if you had another account(like the stress test) show up. I don’t know if it the menu shows up regardless or not.

I’m gonna guess these " stress test " invites won’t be going out till after 10AM.

Just a wild guess mind you.

I have a friend in the beta whose Battle.net client bugged out. They had to nuke the cache for the client and re-install it, but ultimately got things to work.

Although also in their case, they DID have a selection for an additional account/region, it just had the wrong(cached) information tied to it. The Classic Beta was intially coming up as the BFA Beta instead. (Which is where the cache clearing and re-install fixed things)

I assume if anyone wanted to double check if they’re in the beta/stress test, I’d imagine it’d show up under your https://account.blizzard.com/games (Battle.net games list), unless they’re doing it differently.

It does, It shows as

At least for the normal beta. Don’t know how they’re going to flag the Stress Test accounts.

Oh, I guess that’s not a good indicator then. The PTR(non-beta) game account shows the same thing.

That’s not true. What you see there is just the PTR account.

Any player who has the PTR will see that.
I differentiate between the PTR and beta access.

PTR is WoW1

PTR is any WoW number depending on how many WoW accounts you have.

I have three seperate WoW ( 1,2,3 ) accounts because i had a few different starter games

I might add i have a PTR ( WoW 2 ) account alongside a WoW 2 starter account and I do not have Beta access.
