See you on the other side try beta for almost free!
Just bought my beta-key from
http://www.gamemafia.pro/category/16675/might-magic-heroes-vii-beta-key/
A note from the Moderator team: We don't know if this site is legal and/or legit and hence recommend caution while we look into the matter.
The whole process was smooth, got my key in less than 4minutes after pressing checkout and redeemed it in the official Ubi website:
Not trying to be a salessman or anything, just before you blab your mouths about the game I suggest you try it first.
I say £4.45 is a fair amount to try the beta-access before deciding if buying the actual game is in your best interest.
see you on the other side!

€0.70 just to ensure they don't screw things up?

So selling beta keys officially is a thing now?

6,7 euros for a bugged beta of a game's carcass? I wouldn't pay 7 euros for the full game. This is just a ridiculous tentative to grab some bucks Ubisoft style, a shameless scam. Other companies pay people to test their products and assure they work well, some rely on fans to report bugs by testing the beta, but Ubisoft being the boiling pot of greed they are charging you to do the job. And this isn't even a beta, but the beta of a demo as it contains only 2 factions and limited content, so it fails the entire propose of a beta, also a demo should be a FREE sample which should make you buy the game, so its limited content should work flawlessly in order to attract customers (ofc the whole game should work flawlessly). Seriously now, after the AC fiasco what are they thinking, that they can continue like that forever?

U mad bro?
Of course it's not legal! This sorts of shops always sell stolen/hacked keys etc. besides some people on this forum actually did want to buy the beta without having the game?
To be honest H7 is the most anticipated game for me at the moment and I would pay 100$ for the beta easy.
Edit: Heroes of the Storm beta was $50 and legally sold by Blizzard. No one complained? Even some indie games I know sell their betas, but I can't believe somebody actually thought these links are Ubi supported or provided.

it was 20 cents, not 50$
The 40$ packs included assured beta access and things from micro-transaction and such
Quote:
Here's the in-game content you're getting for your $40 (via Blizzard):
Heroes: Raynor, Diablo, and Tyrande
Skins: Commander Raynor, Lurkablo Diablo, and Blood Elf Tyrande
Mount: Golden Cyber Wolf
2,500 in-game gold to help unlock additional Heroes and other content
Immediate access to Heroes of the Storm, beginning with the closed beta tes
Also, this isn't the only site that sells H7 beta keys

Hm, what do you mean 20c? 50$ it was
Yes but none of those sites are legit. Anyway I think most people know how to download literally any game or beta for free.

Wasn't that the pre-order 40$ pack with extra **** and things like that? If it is as you say, no matter what company does this thing is a crappy move that I don't support

Yeah they gave you some extra stuff that you could earn for free in few days anyway.
I don't support it too and I don't like Ubisoft generally but in this case their only fault is not implementing stricter controls over these keys. However they can simply check who actually preordered the game and cancel all beta accounts without the game. I doubt they will do it though.

Did some research and HotS is free to play, while heroes VII is not So yeah, a totally different thing. Not that I like blizzard too much after they ruined diablo with all this crappy web-access at every step

Since I actually play HoTS I can tell that you could play beta for free, it just usually took 1-2 weeks for you to get the key via blizzard when it was "closed"(now open with official launch soon). IF you wanted to get immediate access you could buy the starter or nexus pack(don't remember which it was if not with either of them) OR you could ask your friend for key. Each player was given 4 or 5 free beta codes to share(a lot of people got them via forums from strangers also if they understood to ask for them).
Also there is major difference with you getting actually use the money bought items in the game with HoTS compared to you buying beta which will only be that beta. You still have to pay full price on top of that 7,4€(which is ridiculously high price to pay for beta btw). Even if that 7,4€ got deducted from final game price it would still seem very steep to me as those who don't ultimately buy it will have paid that for demo essentially. Ohh and pre-order with Ubi/limbic has exclusive content (artifacts and map AKA things that effect game-play)that won't be available for those buying later while blizzard gives you chance to get everything even later aside some cosmetic stuff (which is fine with me).
You want my help to make the game? You want me to pay you so I can advice you AND for me to pay for the game in the end? No thanks

Doubt the link is legal and not just because of the site name. I advise caution, there is no telling what this 'beta' might contain.

Nah, the best reason that it may not be real it's because ubisoft hasn't advertised (yet) this "awesome" deal I wouldn't be surprised

I think that case with this beta codes is that Ubiosft sent them some pool of codes for game's preorder and beta codes. Since there were not so many preoprders, this shop decided to monetize on available beta codes, hence they are available for sale.

I don't think so, this website doesn't even have Heroes VII for preorder, and all of their M&M games are digital products as a steam gifts or Uplay cd keys

I really see no reason why not to trust this game shop. If it makes you any reassured i've just bought Tomb Rider on sale and used to key on steam and there was no problem.
Whether or not to pay for beta access is a whole another story.
