Incoming: 250,000 More Beta Invites - Wave 4
Blizzard is still working hard to make everyone happy and sent another wave of 250,000 Beta Invites, bringing the total to 550,000 Annual Pass Invites since the initial wave of beta testing!

As with previous waves, it’s going to take a while for the invites to process, so we recommend checking your games list in Battle.net Account Management to see whether yours has arrived yet. Once it does, you’ll see the Mists of Pandaria beta client available for download from there. We expect this entire wave to take a day or so to complete.

We appreciate the enthusiasm of everyone who signed up for the World of Warcraft Annual Pass, and we’re working hard to get you into the beta. We know you’re excited to explore Pandaria and test the new content, and we’ll keep you posted here in the forums when we’re ready to send out another wave.

I am tired of the shaft that Blizz keeps giving us I am so close to just canceling my account I dont give one rats tail for Diablo or the mount I did it because I am a loyal subscriber or was and wanted my chance to help with the new expansion. So they keep skipping me even my boyfriend got in and he didnt get the pass till Febuary how is that right and he quit playing for 4 monts recently to not fair. And now the invites are all out and yet again no invite I am seriously thinking of canceling.
    I feel as if I'm in the same boat (not about the cancelling part, not going to cancel over something like beta invites) however when the annual pass came out, I signed up the very first day. I didn't hesitate to sign up, when I read about the guaranteed beta I was like "shut up and take my money!" And it's weird because I've never been a Diablo fan, I could really care less about Diablo, I'll play it since it's free but only when there's literally nothing goin on in WoW. And I thought the mount was nothing special, plus I don't care for mounts really so the Mount + Diablo were just like little freebies that I'm glad to accept but what sold me was 100% the beta. So I think it's been 550,000 people accepted into the beta now and I'm not one of them despite signing up on day 1... ya... it kinda sucks considering everyone around me seems to be getting in, friends and guidies and all that, and you end up being left out of the mix.

    But it's OK, maybe Wave 5 will be my lucky wave, I hear it's pretty crowded in there anyways

    Don't be so sure. I've got the Diablo III beta which is taking the edge of still waiting for MoP beta and Diablo is pretty damn addictive.

    Subbed since 07/02/07 (that's the 7th of Febuary) - Signed up for AP day after it was announced, given countless feedback to most of the ptr's from 2.3 onwards. Been playing Diablo 2 and Warcraft 3 on Battle.net when they were popular, Still no invite. Guess you can't miss what you don't have.

    No WOTLK invite. No SC2 Invite, No Diablo 3 Invite. No Marks on my account ever. I feel like i've wasted my time even getting mildly excited at the possible hint of an Invite.

    You chose not to opt in - umm - why should you be chosen over people who agreed to play for a year

    WEEEEEEEE Taking my ball and going home! Wife and I both got our invites this morning, as did most of the rest of our guild. (There are only 13 of us so not too hard to happen :P ). Time to start testing with groups!

    I can understand some people's frustration. I've been subbed since 5/2005 and didn't get my invite either. It is a little discouraging when you ur signed up longer and had the AP longer and someone thats has it less gets in.

    I wish they would just assigned people like a wave code like 1,2,3,4 and say this wave is about to be invited if you don't get your invite then contact customer service. Does kinda suck constantly having to check your battle.net account and see nothing.

    That is a really great idea. I'm in the same boat as you started back in '05 and still no invite. In fact the first person in my guild to get into beta has the shortest sub time of all of us, she started playing about a month or 2 after Cata launched. They for sure are not going in order of sub time...... I'm a little disheartened w/ the situation but the more I think about it I'm sure by the time I do get in I will have plenty of time to do everything I want in beta, the beta is nowhere near over and already they over 1/2 the ap holders invited.

    so pretty much it's like this "Sign up and give us your money for 1 year and we'll get you into beta 3 days before game goes live"....I don't want to calm down. I PAID money to get into beta where's my invite huh? Everyone around me is getting into it and I am tired hearing oh and "monk does this and that does this" shut the f.... up. I dont wanna hear it if I didn't get in. I PAID my money why do I need to wait? And I did sign up first day it was announced/released. Got the ugly mount like every noob has and no beta invite....

    I completely understand. I think what is giving everyone so much heartburn is we don't actually know how long this beta will go for. It sucks to sit on the sidelines while other paying customers get to roll around with their new monks, especially when we have no idea when our invite is coming and how long we will have in there.

    I participated in the ORIGINAL WoW beta, before vanilla, etc. I, like an idiot, canceled my account in the middle of BC. When I started again before Cata, I simply created a new account. Therefore, my sub only goes back to Nov. 2010 =( I signed up for AP day 1, but unfortunately, my sub from WoW day 1 doesn't give me any credit here.

    I know that we are not missing a TON in beta right now, but I am tired of the existing content and D3 isn't out yet, so I have no interesting games to play - so I want to try a monk. Alas, I just have to wait more. However, I am 100% confident that I will get tired of beta after a week, anyway.
