Wave 4 and still no beta invite... long time members prioritized my ass!
Jesus Christ people, Its a BETA. Never in my 12 years of playing MMOs have I seen such bitching about a beta. The way you guys are blowing this up is as if Blizzard is denying you first day access to the actual Expansion. If your boredom with the current content is your reason for bitching about not being in a beta, then go find another MMO to tie you over till MOP is actually released.
Been subbed since '07, got the AP day one, and STILL no beta. This is stupid. It has to be random. Im going to be the last damn person inside when there is nothing left to test.
Even if I did get in the servers would lag because blizzard is too cheap and is just dumping quarter million people on 4 baby servers. Screw Blizz
Theyre inviting opt ins before AP people who they said would get in first.
I shouldnt have even gotten this stupid pass if I didnt even get a chance to TEST anything!
Im so glad i never fell for the AP i saw all the QQ that was gonna happen a mile away
I really cant understand why people are killing themselves over this its just a beta just be patient and wait for the thing to come out all done and ready instead of burning yourself out at something that is buggy and incomplete
I'd actually completely back you. From what i've seen so far on MMO champ the mods kinda agree that the whiney "but they said day one" children can go die

Did you plan on playing the next expansion before annual pass was announced? Not lost anything then have you.
You will still get access to beta so you've gained. You still get diablo 3 so you've gained. I have beta (wave 1), went and looked at it for a couple of days, played the panda start area (as monk ofc)... haven't really done much with it since. I would think a lot of folks will be the same. It's nice to log in and look at a few things but seriously it's not worth crying about.

Next time make extra servers if your not sure how large the demand is.
its fun to see people whine over unbalanced skills(some not even implemented yet), 2 zones and 1 10 min long instance.. seriously though, They have delivered far more than what anyone expected.. week 3 of betas just kicked in.. and we allready have around 500k more beta testers than anyone would have guessed to have at this point.. at least looking at their previous betas.. So give em some slack, they are trying to fit over 1 million people to something that was prolly designed on having around 100k testers total...
So in short you are not missing a lot atm, they are trying to fit all people in there, but first they need to tune on the questing and stuff after each wave.. its allmost looking as this being a trial for massive servers in the future.. and they are for sure stress testing the starting zone and tuning them so that you dont get caught up in the choke point as you did with Mount Hyjal, And in fact if they do a final 500k beta wave, you would be the most valuable tester of all for them.. this being that they will do the final tunes based on the data they get from that massive wave going through those quests having 100k(possibly) people questing in 1 zone per server.
Technically he's not paying for a service he didn't recieve. He's paying the monthly subscription, to play the actual game, of which he got a free mount, free Diablo 3 and will eventually get a guarenteed invite to Mists of Pandaria beta. He's not cheated, just impatient.

A fair test of this is to wander over to the Blizzard forums and actually check General Discussions, MoP forums, and the beta forums to see if it's all sunshine, roses and unicorns over there.
Back in a minute.
. . . . . . . . .
OK, back.
No, plenty of complaints. Sorry, I don't buy it. Neither should anyone else without performing my simple little test.
oke first of all atm there is NOTING to test.
one zone and a dungeon that is about it. later on there tons of things to test.
and claiming they give opt in before ap holders with out proof only make your self and your post as a whole look stupid.
and if you get the ap for a beta invite you sir fail alot there tons of other reason to take the ap but the ap was the least.
i don't really even care i got a beta key. yea its nice when they got maintances. or when i got 1 hour and my server got 1 hour que. but noting more EVERYTHING will be wiped after beta.

Blizzard hasn't lied about anything and if anyone is lying here it is the bitter jaded malcontents who have nothing better to do than stir the pot.

Honestly I think the mods need to start shutting down these threads because they are getting out of control with the misinformation and lies being spread around. There is no constructive discussion to be had here.
They should have just made it a public beta like PTR and never used it as a bait to stave off lost subs, it is just another in a very long line of mistakes for them.
