Honestly, I wouldn't be all that pumped about beta testing anything for Blizzard given how they ignored so many bugs that were reported for expansions and patches in the past and let the bugs go live.

Don't get too excited. Most people can't even DL, install or log in. Let alone staying in the game once you get there. It has got to be the WORST beta launch of all the WoW Betas....I downloaded Vanilla on dial up and it still wasn't near as buggy or as bad as this.

Im hearing from guildmates who are in, they cant even turn the characters around in a circle before lagging out let alone try any of the starter quests. It was especially bad on Saturday after they let in another 200k.

I miss the old days where being in a beta test actually meant something. Now its just a way to reserve copies to maximize the initial subscriber base.
Excellent point and very true.

I actually have fond memories of the AO launch. I found a lot of humor in being stuck in Tir with a couple hundred other people, all lagging and falling into the toxic waste canals of the city. Of all the betas and launches I've been in, that one will stick with me forever.

I got in. But with only 4 servers online. All I see is 6,000 Pandarians trying to do the same freakin quest.
I logged out.

AO was definitely a blast I played that game for a few years, and the beta was great when you could actually control your character

Without rancor, malice or fanboism, I think we have become a touch spoiled. I mean, I tried STO yesterday and if I had to pay for that PoS I would VERY upset. This is a game out for years and the lag, rubber banding and random DC issues are rampant. I am usually one to give a game a week or so, but I barely lasted 4 hours before I washed my hands of it. It had potential, the the performance was just absolutely terrible.
Sometimes we take WoW for granted.
