I think it will be sooner then one week. Maybe a few days.

I really hope I get into the Beta... I got into the MoP beta but I haven't played WoW in 3 years. =\

Mike Morhaime, you are so fine! I'm willing to trade my 19 year old sister for a beta key. PM for pics, phone number etc.

I wonder what options they will have to get into the beta. I would totally buy the new panda based WoW expansion and subscribe to WoW for a year if it meant HOTS beta access.

Yeah, I really don't see why they wouldn't do a preorder->beta access system like they did with WoL.

Given they will work with community sites there will be keyes so you can just buy it off ebay, probably a lot cheaper then wow + 1 year subscription.
Also imo the beta should come out between monday (first day after gamescom) and the monday after that.

It will be like WOL beta:

1) random invites + contest invites
2) people that were invited, get 1 more invite for a friend
3) people that pre-order will get a key

DONT! Just wait and do nothing. There was already the 1.5 Betatesting Competition. I reviewed like 3 games there, because you could just not find other people there - so the chance is pretty high that you get a beta-invite if you have helped test 1.5 Arcade.

That's possible. I did almost max out on reviewing for 1.5 on 2 accounts. Hopefully they won't dq me for that.

I don't quite understand their beta key strategy. Wol was easy to get into with a preorder, the WoW expansion required a 1 year subscription and Diablo 3 was ridiculously hard to get into. Hopefully they are very generous with HOTS keys and provide a preorder or prepurchase mechanism. If they wanted to milk it for maximum money though and possibly get people back into WoW they would do a 1 yr WoW subscription.

Does that mean that the hots beta could come out today? Do you think that is is likely to happen?

It literally could, but if they are smart they'll wait till after gamescom. If i were to go there I certainly wouldn't when I had the beta on my pc at home...

There were stores that gave beta keys when you pre-ordered (100% sure) (in US, dunno about Europe).

I received my key from a friend. The friend received the key from blizzard, with the purpose to invite a friend, so this is also true.
