This is the first post on my new blog, A Chintastic Beta. Here you will be able to find screenshots, info and eventually videos from the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm beta-testing. I will do my best to display everything but it is hard to get a shot of everything and it is also a very difficult task to remember everything.
I got my beta invite two days ago and I have played the beta since. These days have been really exciting for me and I am very happy that I am able to play and help test the game before it is released. From what I am seen it is a great game and the visuals are astonishing. It is a huge step up from Wrath of the Lich King and it multiplies the awesome-ness of WoW by twenty. I wish to congratulate Blizzard on the good job.
It's a blast!
However, it is also very buggy. Many talent-trees are not yet implemented, some quests are bugged, it crashes and it lags like hell. But hey, we're here to test it, right? Right now there are two new high-level zones implemented as well as the Goblin and Worgen starter areas. The level cap is 82 which can easily be reached by questing in Vashj'ir and Mount Hyjal, the two high-level zones currently implemented.
Many of the original zones have also been remade and have been included. Right now it is mostly the Kalimdor zones that have gotten a make-over but with every patch more and more zones in the Eastern Kingdoms are overhauled. Some have changed a lot and some zones have barely changed.
Anyhow, that's all I wanted to share with you today! :)
I will write about the goblin- and worgen starter-zones and quests sometime next week so keep up!

Well done on the key, and a very nice blog, I wish I could have some luck and get one but it appears that's just not the case!
