Does jaylock happen to work for blizzard lol? I mean I realize hes a troll it was obvious from his first post, but I swear the only thing hes put in his mouth since I have ever seen him post is blizzards dick lol.
that was it ? that was the result of that "awesome secret special anouncement" ? how laughable !
yeah, chance for a beta key for 7 weeks. how great !
what a hillarious marketing BS. incredible...
They hyped up a secret fun thing, and it turned out being an unmoderated random giveaway that has no definite rules.
The website the streamers are using is inconsistent and rewards spamming.
It's bad enough that Blizzard hardly even moderates who gets access through their own invite waves. Now we have streamers who sit on keys, and as always, have a bunch to give away at the last minute because they were too slow to give them out.
Am I salty? Yes, very. I'll take my chances with the bots on mmo-champ and wowheads giveaways.
what a total big piece of marketing BS! i'm done with waiting for streamers giving out keys. i would totally understand if they sent out keys by priority based on how long you've been activtely playing the game or better yet give it out to those who have pre-ordered the expansion half a year before it comes out.
I agree. When I first heard about this I imagined that we would kill demons IN GAME and have a small chance to loot a special item that would grant beta access. Now that would be cool.
Didn't Blizzard's teaser about this event say something like "Let's band together..". How are we banding together if we have to kiss the butt of asinine streamers OUTSIDE of the game?
I can't stand any twitch streamers! I don't watch Twitch gaming streamers at all... Only watch Geek and Sundry sometimes if someone is in their stream that I like and Critical Role the rest of Twitch is just junk content that is a waste of everyone's time... why watch some random dude play random games.... Blizzard can keep there beta keys!
Fuck that, I'm not going to be clowning my ass off to be at the mercy of some autist with their biased winner selection. Really, too bad. I just wanted to test the DH, see how classes do at level 110 with the artifacts so I can be prepared, but well oh well.
And please, inb4 some spastic comes and tells me to try the PTR. You can't even go past 100 there, let alone get an artifact which heavily dictates how you play your class, fuck off.
Bajeera just gave a key to someone who already got one, and to a guy that posted a photoshopped picture.
What's the point of having rules?
He's a contrarian, if the forums love the game, he hates it. If the forums hate the game, he loves it. Same for other topics, he'll go against the grain.

Blame Blizzard, not the streamers. Blizzard organised this "event" without giving a standard method of distribution to keep it fair.
I blame them both to be honest, the streamers have known about it for weeks. Either way, it's a bit silly to do it like this.
Bajeera knew that the guy already had a key, and he knew the other guys picture wasn't a real screenshot. But he said "it's cool enough to bypass the rules." That is unfair to everyone following the rules. He took a key that someone that followed the rules could have got.
I don't care if I don't win I just don't want to get fucked over.
Hey man, I want to win one too but I'm gonna be realistic about it. Blizzard could've facilitated it better or guided them to use a certain method instead of letting them all decide at the last minute how to do it, i.e. scrolling through the most recent submissions which are mostly from people spamming to stay at the top of the live feed.
All I can say about this lolgiveaway hashtag beta hashtag key - they can suck my demon hairy balls hashtag blizzardsucks. Didn't got beta from over 20 giveaways, I'd rather watch pornhub, than lolstreamers...
