F*CK! They stole my idea! Those bastards!

Whatever, MMO's are stupid I'll never make one anyways.

I find it hilarious when people say "They stole my idea" even though if they ever actually used "your idea" they wouldn't give you credit for it to begin with. So, you never know because "their idea that they stole" could actually be "your idea" after all.

Actually, a lot of the changes in beta have come from player feedback... where someone posts, "Hey, this would be a good idea" and a developer posts saying, "Ok, sounds cool. Done."

Anyway...

Who still isn't in beta, and wants a beta key desperately? (And will actually play beta if they get one.)

I'd like to get my hands on a key if possible.  I live in a house with 5 other WoW fanatics that don't have keys and I'd love to get to see Death Knight firsthand.  Mostly interested in figuring out the optimal Boomkin spec, PvP/PvE Shaman builds (learning towards Enh PvE still, Resto PvP), and Death Knight tanking.

If you could give it to a pvp-centred mage (I don't want it) that would be great for everyone because the only thing they discuss on the beta forums is fucking frostfire bolt coefficients and shit

can someone explain to me how bad/casual players get 2+ keys while i opted in with 2 accounts and didn't get one. im already in but it still pisses me off.

seriously i saw a post on the beta forums about a guy who goes around testing benches and chairs to see if they work right. what the fuck[/i]

Speaking of which... The stone chairs inside of one of the pubs in Dalaran city don't work right. It makes you sit sideways.

So don't joke about that shit man... Chair objects need to be taken seriously.

CHAIRS HAVE FEELINGS TOO BOB.


Apparently there's a rumor going around that anyone who canceled within like the past 2 months and were signed up for WotLK got a beta key. Makes sense. I wouldn't doubt it at least.

That's a horrible rumor because you needed an active account on August 15th in order to participate in beta. So, if they got keys it wouldn't have done them any good until they update the Authentication servers again.

ahahaha. Makes sense too, but it's definitely not something I would doubt Blizz would do, either.

it does frost damage if they have a low frost resist, or fire damage if they have a low fire resist. whichever is lower.

Yeah it's a crude way of making elementalist builds a bit more viable in raiding (both frost and fire talents apply to it) but without having to employ any thought at all

Sorry they're too busy removing any Shaman PvP buffs that didn't rely on totems to care about putting thought into Mage spells.

sorta right. it does both if theres no immunities in place, it also does the slowing effect of frostbolt and the dot of fireball.

like mark said, it takes all frost and fire talents into account, but it'll be shit for pvp (3 sec cast time good luck getting that off), it'll be decent in pve tho.

If someone manages to get an extra european beta key I'd be honored to take the burden off you. 8-)
