If European countries that refuse to speak english (cause that's what it comes down to - I'm from an non-English speaking country myself and we don't need every single game translated in our own language - only those meant for very small children), they can wait, while the Europeans who don't give two shits about Italians and French and Germans and what else is there to get their localized versions can play.

    It's probably the reason why we're not getting HS beta, and you can bet it's the reason games - even for americans - get delayed without us even knowing, think of WOW expansions. Translations and the coordination of that takes months, it's nothing you do overnight. And then of course for consoles there's all the crap with regions to prevent you from importing and to ensure they can ask different prices depending on where they sell, too.

    Ah, a rare rant from me. But yes, I'd like the heartstone beta, but we're not in any luck.

    Beta will be in the summer. They announced that with the game, so perhaps june.

    Question: why don't they just release the English beta world-wide? I can get translations taking time, but an English one?

    Sorry but it makes no sense: how about....the english themselves ? (English isn't my native language either)

    We can all hope that it comes out sooner. I am sure Hearthstone will be a good thing to kill time between Progression wipes in WoW lol.

    Haven't done any reading up or anything yet thou!

    It's funny, I got like 12 emails (all legit) saying I had gotten into the MoP beta.

    I mean I had the season pass for one, so I know that I was GOING to get in, but man, they really REALLY wanted to let me know I was in.

    I'm willing to bet we'll see something along the lines of "If you bought the blizzcon ticket or digital feed you get a beta invite automatically" type thing.

    There you go, Scrapbot. Is my Signature small enough now? Will you finally shut up, you automated pretentious &##(@)!?

    I did get an e-mail for the Wrath of the Lich King Beta test and for the Cataclysm Beta test... but didn't get one for MoP. I simply one day logged into my Battle.Net account to add an authenticator and, surprise surprise, there it was, 'Mists of Pandaria Beta', on my list of games.

    I'm also excited to check this out

    According to the graphic on the front page, the HS beta this summer will be a public beta! This is the first time I've seen it referred to as public, that will be nice if anyone can try it out and you don't need to be selected! I've only once been invited to any beta, so this is perfect for someone with my luck or worse lol

    I love beta's wish I was more excited for this then I am.

    To add to this, if you do get an email make sure not to use the link that will be provided in the email to access your account. Go to the WoW website and access your B-net account through there instead. Phishing emails will be rampant so be wary.

    do you know if they're capping the amount of betas their giving out or just to anyone that signs up?

    Come to think of it I've been in just about every blizzard beta since vanilla and the last email about beta was wotlk. I'm talking sc, diablo, cata etc. recently I just wait for someone to post they got an invite in w/e forums then periodically check battle net.
