Remember you can pre-order your copy through the TL store and help support Team Liquid! It's also an easy way to get a beta key! |

Cancel your existing pre-order.
1. Pre-order at amazon.com.
2. Wait 4 days
3. Cancel your pre-order at amazon.com
4. Attach the beta key to your starcraft 2 account.
5. Play HOTS beta for 5 months
6. Buy the game cheaper elsewhere for release day.
7. Profit
8. ?????

GAME in the UK are offering beta for preorders.

rotfl can you really do this?

My god... I am going to get bankrupt because of the game that I don't even know if I am going to like. So far as Terran I don't like HoTS. But I have 4xWoL and I love Starcraft so...
I have already bought 2xHoTS - one electronic by battle.net and Collector's Edition through teamliquid.net store. It could be cheaper, really, it is just an add-on :/

They won't. Don't be ridiculous? How would that be able to do that? Let alone find out? Nah bro. You're safe.

If I buy the game through TL's preorder, when do I get the beta key? Does it still apply?
|
Are there any other deals going on like this for Australians?
I could do it through Amazon, but would need to wait a week or so on release? Anybody know where I can pre-order plus get beta key?
|
Wait a minute. Amazon.com charges me 25 bucks for delivery and taxes because I'm outside the US. Can anyone confirm I'll be able to modify my order so that they'll ship the EU version ?
I'd really like to get my hands on the beta, but I'm not willing to get ripped of 25$ just for a beta key and TL supporting :/
Thx

Hey mate, I'm from Australia and looked around and found stores in my country are offering beta keys.
I'm sure they would do it for your country as well if you look for popular stores.

40$ compared to 55€ in Germany, what a joke
|
I wonder, do I get a Beta key for preordering through Battle.net? I was going to pre-order from amazon but I got problems because Amazon can't ship to my address.

Both JB Hi-Fi and EB games are doing the same sort of deal for HOTS pre-orders. Price is $50 for standard edition and $90 for collectors edition at both places.
I would link you but I trust you will find it pretty easily

just ordered it from GAME... does anyone know when the BETA key will be sent to me? nothing about it on the site
EDIt - nevermind.. they are sending out the BETA keys on the 15th

Yeah lol, all sorted cheers.
Also to the guy above me, I've noticed that all the places I've seen so far offering the beta keys they say you will receive it between 1-4 days.

People keep saying that it's doable, I'm not so sure it is though. Even if it is, it's pretty low to do that. We'll have to see once they start sending out beta keys.

Sigh... Seems like Activision grew impatient and forced a release date upon Blizzard again, just like in WoL. We all know how WoL was at release.
So lets hope those months will suffice and all design issues will be resolved. Number tweaking can be done afterwards.
