250,000 Invites Tonight!

[Rower]

On Eu forums there's lot of complaining because we only got one realm and it's so full that it's really unplayable. At the moment I really don't miss my beta key...

I made a thread talking about the servers actually: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic ... 0?page=1#6

But can't EU Players join US servers? I mean sure the lag may suck but you can still test stuff and explore.

Aw man i had the weirdest dreams that i was a panda in firey red shaman gear and i kept seeing companion cubes where graphical bugs were.. i woke up not believeing i really got into the beta so i had to flip through the pages to see what i had posted and i really did get in and i really was playing a panda shaman o_o it was quite hilarious till i woke up and then ended up all sad cause i figured i was just dreaming.

Still no invite here. My fiance got his though. My account is Sept. 2008

Despite whatever Blizzard may have said, judging by these sorts of comments, I really do think the invites are totally random.

Also my bandwidth is too crap at the moment for me to even bother installing the beta, I tried and it was making 1% every half hour or so. Hopefully we'll be leaving Sky and joining BT tomorrow anyway, since Sky are full of bullshit and can't provide good bandwidth at all. Least there's a BT hub right down the road so it should work better. |:

They're not. Only people from 06, 07, and some of 08 are in.

i got mine early this morning and im so excited!

[Sukurachi]

I have two accounts (created simultaneously and both signed up for AP at the same time) which got into the Beta, and for some reason, I can not log in to the beta with one of them, while I can with the other. so go figure.

[Snowy]

I've had an account since 2005 but I only started playing properly in 2009. I suppose they're judging from when my account was opened and not much else.

Still, stupid idea Blizzard. Hopefully the next expansion's beta is sorted a lot better than this mess.

They're judging by accumulated time.

It's not a stupid idea. It's actually very well done considering they had 1.2 MILLION AP subscribers, which is way more than they anticipated. This was the best way to handle it and make it fair for everyone. You may have had an account in 2005 but you didn't do anything til 2009 so you may as well have just made the account in 2009. Not much room to really complain since Blizz told us how they were going to do this once they figured out the best way to go about this. Just gotta be patient now like the rest of us.

[Snowy]

Yeah... and 90% of that number are idiots and whiners on the forums who want their 'free demo' of Mists of Pandaria NOAW.

Also I already got my beta pass lol so I don't need to be patient.

[Chimera]

Believe me guys, its not as awesome as it sounds if your rolling a panda. Ive sat here for an hour trying to complete the quest where you gotta burn a scroll. Its the 3rd quest in the starter zone. My ignore list was completely full and it only consisted of half the whiners so i had to move my chat to the combat log and remove chat bubbles and also names to have any sort of clear vision. Im also lagging to the point where i press the space bar and 5 seconds later i jump.

Only way anyone can enjoy the pandarian experience right now methinks is to copy a character over and explore on an 85.

[Snowy]

I thought that would happen anyway, seeing as half a million invites were sent out and there isn't even that many servers. I think I'll wait a few days.

[Chimera]

Yea i just logged out, i probably wont get to burn the scroll for another 2-3 hours at minimum. Theres people who are trolling the others by having burned the scroll but not leaving just to piss the others off. Plus everyone keeps jumping which makes it impossible to even see the scroll let alone click it. The flame doesnt have a 'use' option either so you cant right click it to burn the scroll.

Im gonna wait a day and then pop in to see how things are going. Last night i found my shaman was on mekka-whatevertherestofitsspelled server and she did the scroll burning and went on to a part of the zone where we saw wood sprites. But that was night and most of the younger or in-school/working population was absent from the beta probably. I moved over to Lost Isles for the petopia guild but i rolled a monk to see how they work

[cowmuflage]

Hence why I'm going to copy cow over at first

[Chimera]

I copied over my worgen but im afraid of what the zones she can enter will look like today as well so im gonna put playing her off for a day as well XD

I'm just trying to get the damn thing running lol. I think first thing I'll do is fishing

Oh I know....thats not really Blizz's fault, which was the point I was tryin to make. That's just the playerbase.

[Snowy]

To be honest, knowing how insanely glitchy everything is at the moment and how busy the starting areas are, all I want to do is decide what my female pandaren warrior is going to look like and have a general look through the new character creation screen. I'm sure all these bugs have been noticed so there's not much point in me reporting them either. Best thing to do is wait for the next patch for it and sit tight and hope things go well. I might leave the beta to install over night but it honestly doesn't feel worth it right now lol. Stupid internet broadband speed.
