New BNet Preview video??

Are you telling us that there are people playing SC2 right now outside Blizzard offices?

Well in the video it shows January 22nd as the date and there are 60 people online.

On the other hand, that could be a fake screeny.

If that was fake to emulate real BNET it would be XX,XXX amount of games. I assure you

"Press" would relate to people such as SCL, TL.net, etc.. so I doubt its gone to that stage yet, or there would definately be a leak already, esp by the smaller sites (like yours, if you got picked).

Its apparent that they are obviously playing at their houses, the blizzard employees.. Probably have been for over a year. They wouldnt be this far in the development stage (ie almost close to releasing beta) without testing it at home themselves.

i said it was coded as for "press" by that I mean it was misleading

Press are involved in the first way of invites. not FnF

I thought Friends and Family have been playing the beta for months now? That is unless I was misinformed. The fact they are still playing the beta shouldn't have much impact on the release of the closed beta.

Hmm...two significant web updates in the span of a week.

That's what they did at Blizzcon. By fake I mean a mock-up, sorry.

They have been playing it internally, Beta would assume it has left the offices.
