Open Beta sign up soon o.0Follow

There should be a sign up page when its out

From the WoW website:

We are happy to announce that we will soon be accepting applicants for the World of Warcraft® Open Beta Test for North America. The open phase of beta will give people a chance to enter Azeroth and play World of Warcraft before the game is released. More details will become available in the days ahead, so stay tuned.

The way this is phrased leads me to believe you can apply for the beta when it comes out. Thus if you missed the application opportunity way back you can still get in.

You have to "apply" by giving your e-mail so they know who to send the code to, and the information on where to download the game.

If you didn't "apply" they wouldn't be able to send you the required stuff.

It's also a way for them to keep track of numbers of people downloading the beta.

Not all of us are trolls on here :) (unlike the blizz forums)

There are no sign-up pages yet but I am sure as soon as there is on EVERYONE in this forum will know.

Usually when a game goes to open beta the process of applying is the download button :P

The problems that occurred with hotmail and yahoo had to do with certain types of spam filters. Apparently the e-mail informing you of your admission qualified as spam. So after you apply, deactivate the spam filters.

It won't be a simple matter of just downloading and starting to play; Blizzard stated in their forums (I think it was Tyren) that there will be an actual application before you're confirmed. They need to be able to track who's playing, where they're playing from, and how to talk to the clientele. That's the official line.

Of course, as bumzilla said, when Open Beta becomes available the news will be on this forum. In many places. In capital letters. With too many exclamation points.
