Developer tests like this are an excellent sign that Patch 4.3 is coming soon, so check out our previous coverage for more info. (For my money, I think Blizzard missed some excellent pun opportunities here. Red vs. Blue? Blue's Queues? The possibilities are endless!)
See the full posts below.
Play against the Blues
Greetings All!
Tomorrow 11/01/11 the mightiest combatants of Blizzard will once again gallantly stride across the blood-soaked soil of Azeroth. That's right, we're doing a Play-with-the-Blues Battlegrounds event on the PTRs!
From 3:00pm-6:00pm PST we'll be queuing for specific battlegrounds, be online and watch for the server alerts to know where to find us.
Hope to see you online!

Play with the Blues
After you've tested your mettle against us during the "Play AGAINST The Blues" event on Tuesday you can follow it up by joining us on the PTR in the fight against Deathwing and his minions!
On Friday 11/04/11 we'll be online from 3:00pm-6:00pm PST and will be queuing up for Dragon's Soul raids using the Looking For Raid tool. Queue up using the LFR tool to join us. You will know us by our guilds [Blizzard Horde] & [Blizzard Alliance].

Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Review the official patch notes, and then dig into what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back!

I haven't gotten on the PTR yet, but this makes me want to.

Ghostcrawler better beware... I think a lot of people have a vendetta against him. Then again, he's probably already well prepared...

Have the blues even TRIED the Raid Finder on the PTR?
I hope they're ready for a night of pain and "WHY WON'T YOU JUST STACK ON THE DAMN ORB WHY WHY WHY"

Well....
WHY WON'T YOU STACK ON THE DAMN ORB?!

Hmm, maybe I need to install the PTR and transfer a character over....

Man, if only raids had a spectator mode...

That's going to be a painful experience.

This is an amazing idea Blizz has thought up. Playing with the players is like all those kids who scream at their mothers "If you were in my shoes you'd feel how much my life sucked", I love it! At the end of it players will say, "so it was horrible dontcha think?" and they'll respond, "My job is A LOT worse," but nothing will change and we'll have a blast killing blues in a bg, or raiding with them. Don't lie, everyone here wants to play with Ghostcrawler, or at least steal his flag in WSG.

Do you think the Blues don't play World of Warcraft ?
I can assure you most of them do.

Shouldnt this have began already? Blizz hasn't showed up.
