I wouldn't get my hopes up for an open beta on the expansions. If they're adding a couple units total then that won't be too much of a challenge to balance. Maybe I am wrong though... Regardless I think WoL will be holding my interest for quite some time.

I expect a closed, then open beta for HotS and LotV because the new units will probably require some serious balancing. Look at how the medic, corsair, DT and lurker affected SC...
However, the wait won't be as painful since we'll be busy following up on patching, Bnet2.0 new features and stuff like that. I expect the first year will be very dynamic :p

Was just looking at the old Brood Lord model:

and it would be amazing if they included it in one of the expansions as a Zerg capital ship. It just looks so menacing.

I think they'll have new gameplay mechanics and battle.net game modes and other bnet stuff that they can show off.

I don't really follow WoW, but I know that, in addition to new quests and classes, they also opened up things like Phasing and the Caverns of Time.
