FSP Beta Registration

The last update said the game is in beta. Internal beta. The beta could hit any week now.

 

I thought it would be the release date but BETA? Wtf beta is usually the worst part of the game

 

.. not according to Dustin Browder and other Blizzard PR statements.

 

i hope its not an april fools joke. people should atleast try to apply if u want a chance in the beta joke or not it gave me some hope lol.

 

i have found proof right here
"Many people have been asking where they can get beta keys for StarCraft II. Here are a few of the opportunities out there right now, and more will come as we approach closer to beta.

This is a great opportunity to get creative, especially since we'll be giving out a pair of beta keys to each category winner. Go Go Go!

Oh damn... now i am excited! i never noticed that before, despite having read that list. Still, we'll find out soon enough. edit: still no email? boo :-(

 

This thing, be it a joke or not, does not contradict previous Blizzard statements of SC2 being nowhere near beta. In fact, this "opt-in" is on the list they posted, reposted here by koolaid. So there is the possiblity of this being real. Maybe. Perhaps

 

true, but they said wed get an email tonight at 10 pacific.. i still havent gotten anything so my hopes are quickly fading.

 

Has anyone received a reply yet?

I haven't.

Damn!
I thought that I would be mad if this turned out to be an April fools but since it wasn't so in the way I pictured it, with it being a complete joke and the hope of getting a beta key getting completly blown away, I guess all there is to do now is hope that I get a beta key when they do show up.
But still... Goddamnit, I wanted that beta key!

 

"all users who submitted for today's registration will be eligible for a fansite beta key drawing when the real beta begins"

There, I'm happy.

 

as long as im in the drawing im happy. lol

 

Wow! The webmasters have somehow managed to make an April Fool's Joke that is funny BUT doesn't hurt anyone

I hope you guys use those beta keys well. I was frothing at the mouth for one a few months ago.

 

I doesnt hurt anything, but shouldnt beta keys be given to qualified people, so the game gets better!?

 

Im am very dissapointed as unlike many of you people who thought that you deserved the beta for doing nothing, i knew that i did not deserve it. If you are so lucky as to have your hands on a beta, please give lots of feedback including videos to the people (like me) who where not fortunate enough to get there hands on it instead of playing it without "Sharing" as it were.

 

Benny, we will!

 

Easy there. Nothing is guaranteed, and seeing as how this was an extremely easy task I think they only give away a couple of dozens to the, what, ~1000 applicants?

 

If by some miracle I get in, I'll provide what I can without Blizzard hounding my arse.

 

I'm so happy that I might get a beta....but sad b/c I probably win...I never win
