Re: BlizzCon Goodies and Swag

cool, so is the starcraft2 beta ready or something?

 

No, DontHate, I dont' believe so. I think they're just passing out the key for now, and then ppl can use it AFTER the beta's ready, which I'm guessing will still be a while, maybe the end of the year hopefully?

 

ah i see, heh. It'd be pretty odd if it was.

 

or its a beta key for something else...

 

I'm getting anxious to find out what game the beta key is going to be for. I think that most likely, it is a WoW expansion beta key. I really hope it isn't that though.

If it is a SC2 beta key, it would really be a dream come true because that means, SC2 is further along then anticipated and we could be seeing the beta starting near the end of the year.

 

If one of the people who got the beta key turned around and auctioned it, how much money would they get? I mean some guy with money and no life would be willing to give his left leg and then some for that.

 

i remembered that for WC3 TFT the beta was able to be downloaded and played on a different server from b.net ilegally of course.

 

If Blizz got wind of an auctioned key (And I'm sure they would), they'd just delete the key from the registry.

 

which is why you keep the key.

hey fenix, i just noticed that you are a mod. congrats!

 

Only a news mod. Hence the Diamonds instead of fancy crystals.

 

that would be why i didnt notice it. lol

 

Yep. Though it would be nice for full mod status

(HINT HINT)


;D

 

I hope its not for WoW... damn WoW gets enough. Im still hoping they show some diablo, because there was an image shown on the link of a couple of characters from WoW, SC, and that diablo artwork popped up... unless they're playing old school diablo 2 at blizzcon.

Cant WAIT, my second favorite game is featuring at quake con (Left 4 Dead) good week for me

 

It's today in a few more hours!! yay ^_^

 

really? is there a live stream anywhere, like gamespot's e3 coverage?

 

Alright! goodies i wonder what the beta key is for and there are great goodies in there for blizzcon

 

yea there's a stream by GIGA http://www.giga.de/2/live/free/

Download the plugin, install it, and then go back to the same site and it'll stream the video. The plugin you installed is Octoshape Streaming Service which is like BitTorrent. So the more people that play the stream, the faster it will go.

 

I never really followed these events, so I don't know how BlizzCon works.

Is there a way to watch this live on the internet?

 

the post right above you...

anyways, i downloaded the octosetup thing, so when is blizzcon?

 

prolly 9 AM PDT, 12 PM EDT
