Are you guys just closing out and then opening again to see that you have it? Or are you actually logging out, then closing, then opening and logging in again?
You're not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories on mmo-champion, which makes me wonder what they're trying to hide.
Guess I give up on it tonight - closed and reopened/updated 100 times. Looks like invites have been going for an hour and NADA!
TY Blizz! (and your welcome for all the previous beta/alpha I tested and gave feedback on)
Can you point out another expansion/expansion feature which had youtubers (and players too ofc, from the people who have TRIED IT) outright say "I've never had this much fun in WoW/in a game before" though?
As to hype towards the beta itself, you can clearly see in this thread that people are very much hyped for it. I log into WoW and I see people praying for beta invite too. People talking about Shadowlands non-stop in trade chat. That is what you call hype. And yes, in that sense it isn't much different from previous years and expansions. But certainly it is not worse than previous expansions.
As for WoD and BFA, there were lots of people who were hating on both expansions before Beta, during Beta and after Beta. There were lots of people constructively criticizing Garrisons, Islands, Warfronts. And there are ofc people criticizing Torghast too now. But whereas the feedback for the former three was vastly negative even by the non-haters or if positive, it was based on undelivered features such as being able to change your garrison location, which did not happen. Ofc you would be hyped for that, but if include the undelivered features in our hype meters, that would be kind of unfair, because you can clearly see with Shadowlands, that the WoW team is specifically trying to tone-down the hype by not making any promises (which led to a very underwhelming BlizzCon presentation). Which might explain why to some people it seems like the hype is lower than previous expansions. Still, seeing people genuinly enjoying a new feature even in its early stages and spreading the hype about it everywhere, I cannot possibly deem this expansion to be underhyped. Just hype bazed on more realistic expectations :P It's not "OMG ARE THEY REALLY GONNA DO IT?" but "Yes, they really did it".
Just got my invite into the beta. Just started downloading it.

I am subbed, I pre-ordered SL a week ago
I just received my beta invite at 20:07 EST
I am a complete nobody in this game, I'm not twitcher or part of any guild
its the first time I received a beta invite a couple of month before the original game comes out, So I guess they are sending this to alot of people if I have one
I know I won't be invited so I just don't bother checking.
