Mod Author WotLK Beta Key Give-Away discussion thread

[Icecoldcoke]

wotlkwiki.info used to have a link to the blizzard downloader, they don't seem to have it anymore though since the beta has went onto a new patch.

[Cairenn]

Remember guys, there were absolutely no promises that you'd be getting your keys today. It may be next week. It may be next month. Patience my friends, patience.

[Seglberg]

I'd hope blizz had a little more thought for the addon dev. community, all high end guilds rely on addons so I doubt they'll push us back close to release :P

Being patient is hard though haha

[Seglberg]

Watching the beta login screen for 30 minutes (okay maybe more like 5 at most) at a time probably doesnt help the anticipation either hehe

Today is the cut-off date for WWI & Blizzcon codes to be entered for access in the next wave of invites. I would expect that means there will not be a wave of invites today. If the mod author keys are included in the next wave with the WWI/Blizzcon people, then it'd have to be over the weekend or next week.

The clients can be found here. The links link to files directly hosted by Blizzard, so there should be no issues downloading and installing the WotLK beta this way, even if you don't have a key.

I'm also seriously hoping for keys today, even if there are good arguments that say otherwise.

[MattCairns]

Im away at my cabin until Monday so I couldn't play until i get back on Monday anyways! But I still check my inbox to see if I got it yet all the time!

Thank you.

[Icecoldcoke]

Then you can use the launcher to update to the other patches.

[Kemortia]

I wouldn't be surprised if they sent out keys this weekend. Considering the stability of the last patch was pretty horrible, I suspect they were waiting until the next patch (today's) to send out more keys. So hopefully we'll get ours this weekend or early next week.

[Gello]

Cool thanks for the client link.

It's going to be a long weekend waiting

[Voorije]

This will be a long weekend indeed.

[Tekkub]

Long and hard

Curious, anyone know if they still have the limitation of 4 characters copied to beta? (like the last one)

I've got 6 lvl 70s now, so im going to have to pick and choose >_>


------------------------------

On another note, my beta key came on a friday last time, so there's a good chance that if we havent recieved our key already then we may not get one this weekend O.o but like Cairenn said, could be tomorrow, could be next month.

[Kemortia]

Couple people I know got keys today, so It looks like they did indeed send out another wave of invites. Unfortunately doesn't look like they included us in the list >>

[x(wai)x]

They have a LOT of invites to send out. I seriously doubt all of them have gone out yet. If I remember right, the last wave of invites went out over several days as well.

[Kemortia]

I'm surprise roadrunner hasn't blocked my IP address for checking my email every 5 minutes >>

I wonder if we're being grouped in with opt-in beta keys.

[Tristanian]

Just relax people. The key will arrive when it arrives, ultimately it's beyond anyones control (other than Blizzy's). You are not missing out *that* much and besides the servers had a 6 hour downtime last night due to an update
