Default Battle.net/Blizzard Beta Opt-Ins

Blizzard recently added a Beta Opt-In Program on the new Welcome to Battle.net site.

What do you do?

Go to Welcome to Battle.net and login (or make an account if you haven't done so already). After that, click the "Beta Profile Preferences" link on the main page after logging in.

From there, you can download the Beta Opt-In program which will scan your computer's system specs and send them to Blizzard. After the upload is successful, you get to select which Betas you are interested in trying: those related to Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft, or any or all of the above.

I'm presuming this is so Blizzard can select people with a wide range of system specs to see how well their newer games will run on them.

Anyways, if you're interested, go Opt-In already!

Presume? They use the same wording on their FAQs about Beta opt in.

I think some one read the FAQs...

I signed up yesterday, I hope I get beta keys to SC2!!

If you read, it says you get to choose which "worlds" you're interested in opting for Beta in: Diablo, Starcraft, and Warcraft.

I don't know if the 1.13 test patch will be included with that or if that'll be something done publicly, but if they release a larger beta for Diablo III, that'll definitely be something included.

I only opted in for Diablo stuff because I'm not that big on their other two titles.
