WoW Open Beta Ending [Nov 17, 2004, 10:21 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The World of Warcraft Community Site
has news that the open beta testing of World of Warcraft will end tomorrow
(thanks WorldofWar.net), in preparation
for the imminent retail launch of the MMORPG. Word is: "Please note that this
does not affect the ongoing European closed beta test. Further details regarding
our plans for the closed and final beta tests in Europe will be announced on the
European community sites next week."
I just wish theyd give us a straight answer on whether we can keep our beta characters or not
You need to understand Blizzard's perspective, if they told folks 2 weeks ago that there would be a character wipe, lots of folks would have left, or not have stressed the servers as much. The idea that there was an ounce of hope that they'd carry over the characters kept many grinders grinding away, collecting items etc etc.
Made good business sense, though I'm sorry to see my characters go.
