Betacon Alert!

I couldn't photoshop my way out of a wet paper bag, Equilari made all the images because he is the manliest of manly men.

Gifted, good editorial, it aided in passing the time. Very well thought out and posted.

Even if all the information we get is Battle.net 2.0 I will be happy, it shows progress in some direction. Besides, battle.net forums are down due to maintenance, and I couldn't log into my battle.net account earlier, also due to maintenance.

Also, doesn't Blizzard like to begin betas on mondays? It probably won't be next week either if it's not this one, IMO. I'm holding out for the 22, which I've randomly picked up...'Cause I feel like it.

A beta launch on a Monday seems like a good idea. But I'm thinking maybe more like March 1.

Stalingrad 1943. Human suffering of unimaginable proportions.



Day 999 opens to find a city in the stranglehold of winter...

Don't they usually say stuff like "we're hoping/aiming for" with "before the end of the winter" or "this summer"? :P

Not with betas.

Because they're not obligated to.

So, how do you guys determine what deserves a reactionary level up? What if they give 3 more things to react to? Will the meter explode and the beta portion be split open in strips of metal?

"Oops, blizzard broke the betacon meter"

It usually has something to do with me being bothered to write another bunch of crap in pseudo-machine-code.

Did anyone else catch the part in the Battle.net 2.0 video where they used Lim Yo-Hwan's handle (SlayerS_BoXer) on one of the avatars? I mean it could be one of the in house testers being slick but I thought it was interesting. Doubly so if they already have Pro-gamers testing the game. This can only be a good thing, right...?

Yes, and now that I found out that I had it closed... I realized I was a putz. You may comment/discuss in that thread now

All the pictures are staged and fabricated.

That's why you see "Enloys" so much. That's Rob Pardo's online handle. And why the Lost Temple description is "This map is pretty much the best map ever." Just the web designers being cute.
