Yeah, the wait is unbearable isn't it?
To be honest, if they would at least tell us a little clearer when the game is coming I think I would be able to bear it but this living in limbo constantly checking Blizzard blue posts and news.. :p Torture!
They've been good at drip-feeding us tidbits of information like once per month, but really starting to feel itchy from waiting here!
That said, with internal alpha having run for a little while we could be seeing a beta announcement in early/mid May.
I've been keeping myself busy with wedding preparation and guild forum creation and like housework and stuff, but I swear if I catch myself absent-mindedly cleaning the already sparkling clean shower room while daydreaming about WoW Classic one more time..
I find myself using my downtime at work to nibble on any tidbit of information about Classic. To be honest, I haven't felt anticipation like this for a game in quite a while and I can't wait for a beta. Although, I feel if they do have a beta, it will be early/mid June. This way, it doesn't pull people away from the current mini-raid they just release in retail.
Even though I'd be willing to wager there's more interest in Classic than retail at this point, everything still revolves around BFA. :sad:
Added bit from Selexin re lockout timers/loot trading and also added the newest blue on itemisation.

I spend so many hours already putting together levelling loot lists and engame mats requirements for tanking. The wait is killing me.

I think you put in an extra word?
Note that this only applies to instances which don't have a raid lockout timer. So for example, even though URBS and LRBS are considered 'raid dungeons', they don't have lockout timers and therefore loot trading won't exist in them.

Same! I even did a trial run on a private server so I could take notes on where to go and how long certain quests take etc. While I'm not planning on speedrunning, per se, I just want to be ahead of the pack and be a knowledge base for other players, if needed.
Even the build up has been an enjoyable experience, although slightly torturous due to the wait. :lol:
More CDN updates:
https://twitter.com/MrGMYT/status/1123591650410934274?s=19
The Beta version in the CDN has been updated to 1.13.2, speculation is that the internal employee alpha has concluded after a two-week testing period and Blizz is moving to the employee beta.
Nothing official out of Blizz yet, but this is more confirmation that the wheels are turning in the right direction.
Character limit update:
Updated, cheers.
I would have been suprised if they changed the limits
I wonder if the charakter limit per server might pose a problem down the line. I certainly understand that there are reasons as to why this number is limited, but assuming Classic is in fact a museum piece, eventually people want to play every class. Having a bank alt on top of that allready decks out on a pve server. You want to create a new charakter to play with a friend? Not on that server my friend. And changing your server is s pretty big deal in Classic, which is kinda ironic seeing how Blizzard removed the server cap on retail.
In Vanilla the limitations made sense. In Classic they still do, but not indefinitely in my opinion. I am aware that this is nothing anyone should be too concerned about for the next ~3 years though.
Collaborative effort between kvmphvre and Gniddikon on this one, but Beta date may be May 24th!

24th seems to be only some kind of "event" according to Tip, I'm assuming this is something he wants to do with this community and is not related to anything from Blizzard.
However, 19th could indeed be beta launch. I don't know what else "multitasking" during GOT is supposed to be, unless he's referring to multitasking watching an announcement while watching GOT *rolls eyes*

Tips is claiming he had to delete the tweet due to "scheduling conflicts" and the event he had planned for the 24th might get pushed back a few days.
I don't buy it.
Updated for release date and closed beta start date.
