People really oughta post on the beta forums more, there's hardly any good hunter feedback.
They nerfed Snake Trap back to being useless again. The snakes hit for 900-1200 each before and now they were nerfed down to 200-300.
Also, when Thrill of the Hunt procs, just about every shot lights up on my bars. A TAD bit annoying. :|
Ranged weapons seem to have had their stats bumped up to the level of 2H
Vishanka on beta now gives +514 Agility (same as Kiril)
Side note: switching specs no longer resets talents/removes talents from bars!
Fervor is off the GCD.
No to Murder of Crows. As BM, the shots that light up are: Arcane Shot, Serpent Sting, Kill Command, Multishot, Tranq Shot, and Widow Venom.

Just noticed this as well. Hooray!
Edit: Not hunter related, but mobs seem to drop various stat buff foods. nifty.
Ok, so Fervor is off the GCD. So I'm definitely thinking for non-raiding purposes adding
to my rotation. I'd hit Fervor for the focus boost every ~30 seconds, and every other time I'd get Murder of Crows off. Still the latency to consider, but my goal is to cast Murder of Crows nonstop, regardless of damageCode:#showtooltip Fervor /cast Fervor /cast Murder of Crows
You're not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories on mmo-champion, which makes me wonder what they're trying to hide.
Another note, still no loot or exp for letting pet get kills. :\
That sucks. I used Tenacity over Cunning pets for not only Intervene, but also because I preferred having the extra snare on a far shorter cd on both the crocolisk and the warp stalker pets than some crappy generic spider or crab.
Furthermore, Intervene currently gives me a 70k absorb shield, that also eats dots. There are no words as to how much I would miss this pet ability from my playstyle and class.
I *could* live with the changes if you can choose whether your pet will be ferocity, cunning or tenacity regardless of what family it comes under. Ferocity spec turtles, for example? Is this possible on beta?

Here's just a quick look at some changes to hunter's along with the ability to now tame some pets in Jade Forest!
As far as the info I stated in this video is, I am correct. I could not find a way to respec your pet at a trainer despite trying multiple times, and on two diff toons. I also say twords the end that they are not always ferocity as I tamed the bug (which oddly comes up as a boar if you try to summon it) and that was a tanking pet instead of dps right off the bat.
