Beta Key Depression Support

[Fingolfin]

There's other stores besides Amazon and GameStop.

I thought the beta key promotion was exclusive to those stores though ... I haven't seen Bestbuy/Futureshop/The Source or whatever advertising it. Well I could be wrong, I'll have to double check.

I thought you had to fully pay for the game for it to be considered "per-order"

Don't worry, my third-world brothers. Hope is always found up high..in ascension.

Trivia contests, while they are fast-paced and very competitive, are also more easy to win that raffles. Just learn some stuff, mainly SC, Blizz and SCL and then enter a SCL Trivia.

Also, close all background applications and have your Internet Browser open with:

-A Search Engine
-Your SCL Profile*
-SCL Homepage
-SC2 Page*
-Blizzard Page*
-The Legacy Observer or site of Trivia

Preferrably have your pages open in Tabs instead of multiple Browsers.

NOTE: If your computer RAM or Internet connection is laggy, you can ignore the * pages.

Also, learn basics about SCL. That's how I won my key

Nope. I don't know which stores but other posters keep bringing them up.

This is getting so depressing. I mentioned earlier how I preordered the game. Well it turns out they had some sort of scam running and no one who pre-ordered from them got a real key. Appareantly they had one key that was sent to all the costumers.

I waited for SC2 for ages and it was effing depressing when I didn't get a beta key. After entering all the contests and raffles and still without a key... well... I just cried. There are only two games I've ever waited for and sc2 being one of them and this... well...it just doesn't feel good.

It's just the beta though. There are more people not playing it than there are who are playing. Majority of SC fans are waiting for the actual release.

Well. Having waited for Starcraft 2 for YEARS and not even getting into a beta... And worst of all, some fucked-up company trying to screw with my money. Well, at this point I don't really care about other fans. I waited for ages and even paid for the beta, I want to play it. I effing deserve it! You have no idea how depressing it is to not being able to play when you know a shit ton of others are...

That's my hugest grip with todays gamers. They have an overly sense of entitlement that Blizzard owes them this and that for buying this or that. Not saying your the case specifically, it does indeed suck that a company would do that. Just a general statement that I've seen throughout forums where people feel they deserve a key because they bought so and so game in the past.

Regardless, I'll keep you in mind should I stumble upon a key.
