No... I've have the beta opt-in set on my account for months, and the installer isn't even listed. I assumed everyone would be able to download the client and you'd just have to wait for your key (if you ever get one that is) but looks like you don't even get the download unless you're picked?

I'm surprised just how underwhelming these streams are. Feels like I've already seen and played this game once before. Don't know if anyone else feels the same way I do, but I'm not getting that "fresh" feeling like I sometimes get with most brand new games. Sort of feels like Starcraft with nothing more than a fresh new coat of paint. Not that that's a bad thing, but that's just how I feel.

I know someone from Sweden who has got his key already. He had press invitation of course. But the current phase is not US only, we know that much.

*Note* the final requirements for Starcraft II have not yet been determined. Due to ongoing development the minimum requirements listed above are subject to change at any time. During this phase a Mac version will NOT be available, please check back.

Haven't heard of anybody that got an invite yet, must be a really really small pool of people.

I have blue balls. I opted in the very day the beta opt in appeared. And then the day they required a system scan I did that too. I have every Blizzard game you can add to my profile added. UGHHH

Now we just wait until the agonzing wait is over.

Luckily if the beta starts now and the game is released in three or four months I won't lose too many school days in the release frenzy, and I'll have plenty of time during summer to make my goddamn maps.

My hype for it is skyrocketing.

Ehh, didn't get a key. Snooping around the forums, however, shows me that very few people outside the press got in though so I'm not too worried. There always is a second wave and eventually a release.
