Pre-Order at Gamestop for Beta Keys!

[TunaFish]

Sounds like there should be a lot of people joining the Beta

Preordered mine 6 hours ago and nothing...hrm.

Seriously... pretty much any big fans of sc who have been following beta will no doubt be in soon. I mean, why wouldn't you pre-order a game you know you're going to buy if you get into beta fo free? Btw, I don't work for GameStop, although that last hypothetical question probably seems like I have endorsed them

On a side note, I have now played 9 games, and yet I still have 5/5 placement games left until I am placed. Does anyone know what that's about? Although I hear Battlenet is being a bit unreliable atm so I'm sure that's all it is. Or maybe they disabled the ladder system to prepare for reset #2? Idk it's weird though.

Sadly the promo has not hit europe, not yet anyway, so no keys for us

Could always order it through the gamestop website and see if they will send it to an international address. How I worked it out. but technically Armed Forces Europe is a "US" shipping address even though its sent to europe/middle east.

But then I will be getting a US version? or do they open up the servers on releas?
And I will have to pay alot of tax when it reach denamrk...

I'd also like to add that I just got a key from my Amazon.com preorder that I made several weeks ago.

Wtf I preordered my SC2 the day it was announced at EB Games, I made ANOTHER preorder on the Collectors edition when it was in the EB Games Canada database.

NO KEY!!??! WTF!!!

( I am in Alberta , Canada for anyone who is curious . I am going to call/visit my EB games today. Yes there is GameStop here now as well, and they both operate technically as one here too. We've never been cut out of Preorder swag or bonuses, especially anything Blizzard )


EDIT: A big note here, a lot of GameStop managers on teamliquid have announced that their sources (Managers at GS/EB) say only SELECT stores have them, and only in LIMITED amounts.

So I'd advise you inquire about your key/preorder ASAP if you want the beta badly.

[REF]

I just went to EB games here in Montreal and they said that they only had enough beta keys for those who preordered ages ago.

He simply put "There is no way to get an beta key from eb games if you haven't preordered already"
