The chef himself said it will start this summer. Not soon, this summer. Which means latest in September but I dont really count this as summer. My guess is in the next 2 or 3 weeks at least I hope so.


I always thought that June July August were Summer and September was Autumn. Is it different in some other countries?


First day of Fall in in the northern hemisphere is September 22. Knowing Blizzard I wouldn't expect the beta anytime soon, they have a track history to back up this thought too.

It won't be otherwise they wouldn't hold contests for a beta key

Most people who sign up for the beta eventually get in. Sadly it can take a while. The SC2 beta was like half over by the time I got in. Had to watch streams and VODs for weeks T_T

It really surprises me when people keep accusing Blizzard of giving them false information about Beta. Please look at history... they usually announce a beta about a month before it starts. They never give a release date otherwise. They were hoping for Summer. They might still make it.

Also, it will not be an open beta until the last couple of weeks of the beta (if that).

In case you haven't seen it, there was a Browder interview about a month ago in which he said that HOTS is 99 percent done but there is still some polishing to do. He didn't get any more specific than that (didn't even say "soon").

That's essentially open beta since everyone here is going to play hots. Whether they try to act like they "lost faith in Blizzard" or not :p

Yeah I traded some games for a sc2 beta account and then 1 week later got in (this was early beta). God I remember that first week I skipped a couple of periods of school just to watch people play and me be super jealous. I got in 2-3 weeks after but traded the games for an account 3-4 days after beta started.

Hope I get in first when beta starts if I were somehow lucky.

When has Blizzard ever announced a start date for a beta? It's always a vague time frame then one day it's just out. That's the way it was for WoL too and most likely the way it will be for HotS.

I wouldn't say WoL was sub-par, i would just say it was unfinished, even despite the huge development time..

unfinished is kinda like sub par, but all the ui changed they're doing in hots could have been easily put into WOL a year ago, but instead they decided to make HOTS look like a better upgrade. Blizz has gone to the dark side with activision showing them the way.
