Quote:Some quick questions (though slightly OT):
What is this "Family and Friends" beta for the Burning Crusade that is now running in the U.S.?
Who participates there, and what can we expect next? Is the closed beta, where the leveling contest winners are also allowed to participate in, next? And after that the public open beta before release?
Do you think that the Burning Crusade will be on the shop shelves by November/December (2006)?
I'm guessing they're using the Family and Friends alpha as a shakedown before the Beta. Since they actually have enough game code (and content) to test already, that indicates to me that they'll manage to push something out for Nov/Dec. Blizzard could even hold some of the new endgame content back as long as they have 0-20 for BE and Draenei as well as 61-70 for everyone else.
Maybe we'll see a big splash for "BURNING CRUSADE PATCH 1.1: KHARAZHAN" in January '07 :whistling:
