How does that work? You preorder the game and then they email you a key? Post you a key and CD? What? :<

There are no final beta keys left with pre order packs now, they sold out within hours of release way back in November. The only way to get one now is from a GAME store for £3 if they still have any.

the £3 is just a deposit for the game when it gets final release in feb tho, so your not paying any more moolah

Mine too, I called 3 local stores yesterday and they're all gone, even the one that had 40+ copies just after Christmas. Ooo well, you should have pre ordered ;)

Which part? It is correct you cannot pre order the game and receive a final beta key any more, and it is correct that the pre order packs through the official site sold out within hours, since myself and many friends were watching the sales on the official site throughout the day.

I suspect the "incorrect" part was that gameplay.co.uk still had final beta kits up until a week ago (last time I asked them). They weren't on the site of course, you had to phone them and ask.

Likewise several GAME stores also still had beta kits remaining and I suspect many of the smaller/less used ones still do. Worth ringing round.

I know some stores in Paris also have a few left. One of my guild mates was buying them last week for anyone that needed them (though the deposit was 10euros there so involved people paypalling him after).

anyone else got some spare keys, for whatever you forked out for them- friend wants to join in the fun now, don't fancy having to go through ebay for him.

or you can do like i did: order it in december, just to find out in early january that 'the order doesnt include a final beta key' (even though a lot of other people who ordered from there got theirs) from the company you ordered from

I am hoping that it changes to open beta soon so i can try it out.

Unless anyone is feeling generous and has a spare key ;)

By no means am I wanting to put thoughts into anyone's heads, but read this FAQ thread:

http://forums-en.wow-europe.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-general-en&t=51154&p=1#post51154

Could it be there will be an open beta after all?

I refer to this paragraph :

"When will there be more testers, and how will these be added?
We expect to start adding more testers in the last half of January. How this will be done will be announced later."

Where to get a key!

I know this has been said before but 3 days ago i visited my local Game store and for a £3 deposit pre-ordered WoW and got a key. So if you really wanna play the beta try Game stores. The only bitch was it took 21hours to download the beta, but its worth it.

Am currently lvl 16 Human/rogue and after 3 years of DAoC this game is a breath of fresh air. This game rocks!! :clap:
