t-break has published the first part of it's WarCraft III beta preview. Here's a bit from it: The WC3 beta is currently underway on Battle.net and is designed to put the multiplayer aspect of the game through its paces. Features that are not available in the beta are: Single-player campaigns, LAN games, cinematic, A.I. opponents and the map editor. However, you do get to play around with all the four races that will appear in the final game. You can also set up Custom matches or dive into anonymous matchmaking section of Battle.net. It?s not all fun and games though and to give you an idea of commitment that Blizzard is putting into the Beta program? It?s been roughly a little over a month since the beta began and Blizzard has already issued three patches so far that have significantly changed the gameplay aspects within WC3. These changes are based on feedback from the various beta testers. Warcraft III Preview
