Dunno why this hasn't been posted yet:
someone's found a way to get to post-beta content. apparently he says that several people must know of this by now. his pictures were deleted by a mod on battle.net forums and was told he would be contacted by blizzard shortly.

EDIT 1:
figured i should edit this in before a mod there deletes it. this is from another player on battle.net forums who gets past the locked gate but is teleported back after a bit. post if you figure out a way. i'm expecting youtube vids to hit soon.
EDIT 2:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/4175418656?page=14#274
can anyone try this and confirm?

What I do is making a new game, running up to the first gate to the cemetery at the "a shattered crown" quest when I get the checkpoint message before the WP i plug my internet cable and run behind the gate, after that I put back the cable then I'm getting tped back to the WP
Dont even know if this is how to do it, since I can't stay on the other side, also tried with friends tping to me and stuffs like that, nothing seems to work so far.
Atleast I can run a bit and get the "fields of misery" text etc.

Alright, so I have heard of a way to access further content in the Beta, and after an hour or so of reading, analyzing, and testing, I found out how to progress further.
Pretty easy, I'm genius.
I'll give you guys some hints.
1. Gate
2. Leap
3. Tele Affix

Read the article on the Fields of Misery.

It's a BUG so you can't get banned for doing this, it's all part of the Beta testing process.

I'm a Game Tester at Sony, so I LOVE figuring things like this out. It's my job.
These are the steps I took,
1. Start a game, shattered crown or black king
2. Take waypoint to Cemetery
3. Move a few steps below the Waypoint
5. Immediately disconnect your internet service and run past the northern gate into the Fields of Misery.
Additional INFO: You have to be a few steps back behind the Waypoint before you disconnect otherwise the gate will still be there. If you're back far enough you'll pass right through the gate.

You have a 10 second window you can reconnect your ethernet cable or reconnect your service. This is somehow lag related...
Can someone please post this thread in the forums or in this discussion thread here?
I don't have access to the Diablo 3 forums for a month right now.

I figured out HALF of the bug and we have 48 hours to figure it out before it gets patched on Monday at the latest.
I've gotten in pretty far, I think we're onto something here if anyone wants to help me test this.

It appears these steps no longer work, but I thought it'd be important if I shared it with you anyway.
These are the exact steps I took to get inside. Exactly how I would write them if I was at work,
1. Created Shattered Crown Game
2. Worked my way to Cemetery Waypoint
3. Random User from "Looking for game" chat asks if he can join game to help test bug, I agree.
4. [] joins the game, Diablo's minions grow stronger.
5. [] waits in town next to my banner and holds cursor above banner.
6. Advise [] to left-click my banner continuously until further notice.
7. I move my Barb slightly below waypoint
8. Alt tab, disconnect wireless internet signal.
9. Run North past gate within a 6-7 second window
10. Alt tab, immediately reconnect internet
11. [] then appears in "Fields of Misery"
12. I get disconnected from the server so I relog.
13. Rejoined Join []'s and am now in "Fields of Misery"
I was in the area for only about 20 minutes before I was disconnected. I was testing for more bugs, but other then placeholders, everything seemed normal. In the Slaughtered Calf Inn, you could buy dye's for your gear. A cave, for example, had a placeholder name of something like: "Cave_(draw001)_hskey" which isn't unusual, considering we have an incomplete build of the game.
I don't know who this [] player is because I couldn't see his name, but he's the other who saw the area. I was asking in chat for someone to help me test the bug but nobody would message me, and now I have over 200 friend requests. I'm currently unable to get online as of a couple hours ago and I'm receiving an error of "3005" when I try to login.
It's not because I've been banned, this is a "Bug" and the sole purpose for the Beta. Blizzard wants us to find these things so that they don't have these problems in release. Everything is working as intended so I wouldn't worry about it too much, even though some of my friends with Beta can login right now.
I heard a rumor on the forums that Dye's were being sold in the Auction House, which is completely possible. But moments before I went offline I noticed the Auction House was offline too, possibly to hotfix the issue? I do believe a couple of days ago when I tried to to access the Auction House it appeared to be offline anyway, so it could just be a maintenance thing.
