[DanTMWTMP]

lol

play lineage2!

 

[Kelvrick]

You better be lying. You know why? Cuzz I don't have an email.

 

[oLLie]

No email for me.

 

[bmacd]

PM the link!

I would share but here's the catch. It is a 2 gig download that I am working on now AND the downloader is a bit torrent client that authenticates off of your key. If I gave you my key, then I'd be screwed because you could go on when I wanted to play. Sorry. I can't share. I am sure a warforge type thing will go up soon.

FYI, emails are not done sending. My friend who is also definitely in is still waiting on her email.

Guess who has owned and played every blizzard game religously, but has never gotten into a bliz beta, despite applying for all of them?

[LivinLaVivaPollo]

[elanarchist]

someone said that it will take a couple of hours for blizzard to send all the emails out

 

[fumbduck]

mine better come, i've been in every blizzard beta and never bought a single game.

 

[bunker]

Ooohhh, I wonder if this means the NDA is lifted on me now...


Wait..you didn't hear that...

EDIT: from the WoW forums:

I wanted to personally thank all of our Alpha Testers for their hard work and dedication to our World of Warcraft Alpha Test. I know that many of you have been waiting to post publicly and now?s your time ?

The Beta has officially begun -- the NDA is lifted!

Ahh.. a fellow alpha tester?! Hehe, the NDA was lifted, and I was in alpha also. But yah, it takes a few days for Bliz to send all their beta emails, so keep hoping guys. If you got any questions feel free to ask though.

Yanked from the WoW FAQ

What type of PvP will you offer?
We know that the player vs. player (PvP) option is very important to many gamers. Therefore, we plan to incorporate a form of player conflict into the World of Warcraft. However, players who do not wish to be participate in PvP combat will not be required to do so. The PvP system will be incorporated in a consensual way that will be fun for those who wish to take part in this form of combat. Announcements regarding PvP options in the World of Warcraft will be announced in the months ahead.

They havent tested PvP yet. I dont think theyll test it for a while yet either as 2 classes have not been played by the masses yet either.

so basically they aren't willing to detail their pvp method, though there will be one (somehow)

i miss UO

My hope is they have atleast one PvP only server. I dont want any of that +PvP and -PvP on one server crap. Or consensual duels. Consensual duels are NOT PvP.

Maybe they'll do it as on a MUD I used to play, where you can choose to become PKer, but can not go back to not being one once you have chosen for it. Everyone could see who was a PKer by looking at them.
