Aaaaaaand they're out again. Lasted about 15 minutes. I have a feeling there will be more, though... there were 100,000 stress test accounts, and this is theoretically an *open* beta.

Chrono · November 2004

coil if you see more keys available you think you can snag a couple for me? (me and my bro want to play)

Epidemic · November 2004

You think more keys will come or is it done for file-planet?

Unknown · November 2004

How about those that have never played, and would gladly severe their testes for a glimpse of WoW? This is such complete beefcake! All the blizzard crap is down.

I replaced the old file with a new one to a 3rd-party torrent of the installer. I don't know if there are still seeders, but give it a shot.

cshank4 · November 2004

Gah no where to download except fileplanet. And their DL servers are **** up.

Unknown · November 2004

Since this is an Open Beta, doesn't that mean eventually unlimited accuonts available? So really, I have no reason to whine.

Thanks for download Sir Coil, have yet to try it. edit- no seeds, is there another official place to download it?

Epidemic · November 2004

It just means there's no selection criteria..

Sirus · November 2004

Checking the torrent right now. I was able to grab a key with FP "surprise" key release.

quoted to made sure our plight is heard

Chrono · November 2004

good news from the WoW forums

turns out the keys FP gave out were just left overs from their subscribers stress test sign up

blizzard has the main bundle of keys and they will begin handing them out once they get their site back up

Unknown · November 2004

The number of keys isn't limited, right?

Chrono · November 2004

if it is limited i imagine the limit is pretty high

Narfwak · November 2004

Fileplanet's download link won't work for me; the DL manager loads, but can't connect. Can anyone else confirm the problem? Here's the <a href='http://www.fileplanet.com/download.aspx?f=147141' target='_blank'>page</a> for the server list.

Good news indeed... thanks for the heads up!

Sirus · November 2004

I have the same problem Narfwak. I get a network error.

Amplifier · November 2004

Alright, I got a key now it seems the fp downloads servers are getting hammered too ;(

Sirus · November 2004

Big time. I got my key but I can't download the damned thing.

Thanks for the confirmation. I thought it was just my school's connection, as the only people who could confirm it before were my dormmates.

Gwahir · November 2004

I have not played before, tell me what I must know.
And what are the pros and cons of alliance vs. them other guys

edit: anyone else just lose their connection to fileplanet download lines and can't get back?

camel_fetus · November 2004

If anyone has a spare key, as in they got two for some reason, can I have your extra, cuz Ive been waiting to play this game for about a year, and then today comes and by the time I home, all the keys were gone. :cry:

Defiance · November 2004

Damn good news... lets all keep a watch out and notify everyone when worldofwarcraft.com is back up.

Epidemic · November 2004

worldofwar.com is up <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
