Starcraft II Beta Keys Wave 4 Possible?

[Chris]

A few days ago, Dustin Browder told VG247 their goal is to maintain a flow of 10,000 beta testers, and they don't have them yet. Even if that was the case, if the numbers go down due to some people not login to play, they might invite more people.

What level of concurrency to you want to get to before the end of the beta?

Dustin Browder: I think we want to maintain about 10,000. It’s sort of our goal, and we’ve just about hit that at this point. I can see we’re at 9,000-something right now, and 10,000 is the goal. That makes our match-maker really happy, makes it really sing when we’re about at those numbers. If we get much higher than that we’ll just leave it, and if we see concurrency fall off we’ll add more keys until we get back to those numbers.

Xordiah posted in the forums a message that might indicate more beta invites will be sent soon!

This is the continuation of the official "I am sad I'm not in beta yet" thread.
Part 1: Official thread: I don't have a beta key http://forums.battle.net/thread.html...89979&sid=3000

Please post all your thoughts on this matter here. I will be closing and deleting all other threads with this topic. And topics about invites that have been sent out, about waves and anything else that has to do with getting into the beta.

Just quick update:

1. If you did not get into beta yet. Make sure you opted in. We see a lot of complaints about people not getting a beta key - and they have not opted in. This makes baby pandas cry!

2. We like fans from all over the world - if you have opted in, you have the chance of getting into the beta, no matter where you are from.

If you have any questions about opting in, getting into the beta or you just want to cry a bit, please do so here!

I would kill for a beta key

I would love to get a beta key and see how this one is coming along.

[Rival24]

Seriously, I would kill someone for a key

[wade.hinkle]

There's some news floating around stating that current beta testers are going to get beta codes, and hand it out themselves, instead of the company itself doing it. So hopefully you might know someone who is?? I can't say I do.

[Rival24]

I know someone, so if he gets me a key, I might give you one

_{Not sure if it works like that though}

[Chris]

Me too!

[wade.hinkle]

I would appreciate it!! I'm not sure how many each person will be able to give out.

[Rival24]

Oh it seems that people who have been given a key by someone else, can't give any keys away themselves

[wade.hinkle]

That stinks...

To me that is really, really sad. You get something for free and then sell it?? That's actually not sad, that's BS. and I hope the publisher does something about it.

If the market is there, exploit it.
