官方发言人Katricia发布公告，表示内测[beta]将与一月底开始接受报名：

　　我们正在紧张地进行wow的alpha内部测试，alpha测试的目的是为了在2004年早期进行的公开的beta测试积累宝贵的经验。

　　因此，为了加快alpha测试的进程，我们将部分alpha客户端发放给少数非内部成员来进行测试，在这个过程中，一些游戏拷贝被散布到了互联网上，当使用这些拷贝连接我们的alpha服务器的时候。理所当然是失败的。

　　同时，我要宣布本月末将进行Beta测试报名登记。请大家继续关注Blizzard的官方网站以获取更多新闻。

　　Blizzard也提到关于Alpah泄露的问题，看起来泄露确实让Blizzard加快了步伐，并且正在积极调查这次的泄露事件。

　　值得一提的是，在之前曾经有部分站点对官方将对WOW内测延期进行大肆报道，完全属于空穴来风，这里有必要提出以正视听。



原文如下：

As many of you know, we are currently conducting an inte
al Alpha test for World of Warcraft. Our goal for this Alpha test is to provide the best possible experience for players when the Beta launches in early 2004.

In order to accelerate the testing process, we recently allowed a small group of exte
al testers to play the game. During this process, a collection of files was leaked to the Inte
et. While these files contain alpha content from the game, they are not fully playable and therefore do not convey the experience that World of Warcraft will provide when it is released.

We are currently investigating this matter and will take serious action against those involved.

As always, we appreciate the interest and enthusiasm that players around the world have for World of Warcraft, and we look forward to delivering a massively multiplayer game unlike any you have ever experienced. Until then, we ask that you refrain from sharing any content that doesn’t come directly from Blizzard Entertainment.

Lastly, we would like to announce that sign-ups for the World of Warcraft Beta test will begin at the end of this month. Stay tuned to www.blizzard.com for further details.
