So, we've established that GameStop is pretty much the biggest source of bullshit ever, so if they told you that you could get a Starcraft 2 beta from them, they were lying. You can't order them from anywhere, it's invitation only.

So if I preorder online then I get the beta-key?

According to Gamestop's product page, if you pre-order online, they e-mail you the key in (roughly) one business day, and if you pre-order in-store, they print your beta key on your receipt.

Pre-ordered it yesterday but still haven't gotten my beta key :(

Usually takes ~16 hours for the e-mail with the beta key to come. Mine took 15, Centreri's took 16, and someone else was telling me it took 16, so expect a wait of approximately 16 hours.
From what I can tell the people in that topic are getting it just fine.. You should try asking some of those who claim to have received it.

Oh, I get it, I thought he was just trying to buy the beta itself. I pretty much WTF'd.

I am freaking retarded. I skipped two words: Business day. Since Gamestop is a 7 day business will I still have to wait till monday?



None.

Generally that is what is meant by business day, but that is still pretty dumb.

When you get the beta, I want you to 5pool your first opponent. Then post the replay ^^



None.

Will do man. Anyone know what the second code is for?



None.

Someone take his beta away from him. Now.

I think you got an invitation also, something I thought everyone would get when they got beta, including those FaceBook competitions.

Wait, don't you start with 6 workers? :wtfage:

7pooling, on the other hand, is immensely satisfying.

I'll be honest i have no idea what 5pool or 7pool is. All i know that i am going to just get on and start enjoying it... sad story though IT TAKES 10 HOURS TO DOWNLOAD + 40 MINUTES FOR THE PATCHES WTF IS THIS haha and i cant even spare resources for other games. wtf i7 is slacking atm.

5pool = Play as zerg, don't build any drones, save up money for spawning pool, then make 6 lings after that.

NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation
[08:47 am]
NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?
[04:14 pm]
Vrael -- 240*12*2 is 5760, where is the other 240 APM?
[03:44 pm]
Oh_Man -- 1 action is selecting the unit and another action is moving it
[02:58 pm]
Vrael -- 240*12 is 2880, where is the other 3000 APM?
