I can't see it being a delay. Announcing that you are going to announce something and building a bit of hype isn't good if you don't have good news

Announcement: HoTS will be released when it's ready!

I love how the poll reflects the amount of faith that the community has in Blizzard :D

Well, I for one have a great deal of faith in Blizzard to produce good games...but faith in them to produce good games quickly and on-time?

I don't think it's an announcement of HOTS being delayed, Blizzard just wouldn't hype it up and say it's delayed. It's more likely to be a beta release soon / sign up.

Yes i know , it was there long time , but without (Coming Soon) , when they add this ?:D

The 'Coming soon" has always been there since Diablo III is on this list?

They will announce some 'awesome' Battle.Net-features.

Most accurate response by far. Blizzard does not use the same time scale as the rest of the world : they use their own, it's called the "when it's ready calendar" and in this calendar the definition of "soon" is vastly different from the one we use in the real world.

This is just an expansion i don't see it being pushed back to 2013 since the engine is ready and all they have to do is put in their new ideas and balance it out. Sure it may take some time but they have been working on it for the past year and a half or more.

So hopefully this is about a beta announcment. looking forward to it :D

The engine alone isn't the majority of work that goes into the single player content, let's not even get into the multiplayer changes and testing around that. Basically we have story writers, voice acting, cinematics, map design, map testing, unit design, etc. It's not a smal undertaking.

With that being said, Dear Blizzard: Beta Plox.

Heh, I'd be both proud and ashamed if it allowed me to autopost win/loss to my wall.

If the beta isn't open to everyone who bought WoL I will be upset. What better advertising to the customer base most likely to buy it??

A Beta is not advertisment, it's a test of the games function, the point of the beta test is to work bugs out before the product goes to the general population. In the past expansion beta tests have been limited (at least with my experience having beta tested War3:TFT and WoW:Cataclysm expansions along with SC2 and Diablo 3) just like all tests starting with a small pool of players and growing out from there.

Make sure you're beta profile is setup on battle.net and you're opted into the starcraft universe betas.
