Cool, I've been playing on East Coast 16 for a couple of days now. I have a lvl 16 pally named Nemoh. I think I'm going to keep with the pally for now.

I don't remember anything about opening ports on my router... Do you have any more info on this? also, do you know what it's uploading? Am I sending this installer out to another person as soon as I get it? I am DLing at 44kbs, and at this rate, it will take 14 hours to get it all (24%) If I can speed this up any, I really want to know how. Either way, see you all in there... eventually.

I was leaning towards a mage class, since I've been a melee in another MMORPG. I didn't want to be a healer (not my play style, I can't stand it when people die and it's my fault), mage didn't seem all that appealing, shaman seemed too focused on parties, and druid was only for 2 races, neither of which I wanted to be. So I started to focus on Warlock. Warlock really goes well with my style, and just looks like a riot to play. My only problem is with the soul stone requirements, and how you can only get them off of honorable kills. I'm definitely going on a PvP server (in WoW, it's PvP server or don't bother playing), and many have said Warlocks run out quickly with no way to get more if you're fighting in a low level zone. So that's why I wanted to try it out, and a couple of other classes as well, before I sink a bunch of hours into a class that's excellent in PvE, but not so hot in PvP. Suggestions?

Well I am on DSL and its d'ling at 100KB/sec so do not be discouraged. And i got my key....woot!
edit: the ports it told me to open were 7881-7999, 3724-3724 and 6122-6122 in the port range. I dunno if my router is different in this aspect but i hope it helps.

Lol no rush to get the game guys. I'm finally in and it's such a slow moving game that it was like hitting a brick wall from spending so much time stressing about. It'l come, and when it does, join server 16 east coast so we can blast together

It was 5 hours ago when I first posted about the download, then it was at 2%, now it's at 12%. So by my calculations it will take about 45 more hours to finish the download. The routers might have something to do with the slow downloads, but I forwarded the ports it asks for to the best of my ability and it still complains about being behind a firewall and tells me to forward them. Maybe it would be more effective to drive down to Irvine and raid Blizzard HQ for a disc.

I have a few questions and I hope this is the right thread for this: 1) How and where can I sell all of my excess loot? My inventory is quite full (even with two bags) and I could certainly use some extra dough. Second, I have some staffs and axes that I would very much like to use but I don't have the skill/abilities to use them. I am a level 10 Night Elf Warrior (I started playing on Sunday) and this is my first attempt at such a game so I apologize if my questions are silly. Thanks for any help and or suggestions you can offer. Thanks.
P.S. I am known as The Eremite so say hello.

No west coasters??? Im on Server #14, Pacific. I am loving this game so far..I've gotten my Orc Hunter up to 21, I love the class...people say it's gimped but now that the talents are in things are better. I can solo quite well and in dungeon instances I can do great damage as long as I don't grab aggro. I also took up engineering/mining as a profession. Oh man can you make some cool stuff. I've been making target dummies and just dropping them in towns to see peoples reactions to a waving wooden guy. If you're on Pacific 14 look me up, name is Malarchuck.
If you're just starting off DO THE QUESTS!!! I cannot stress how good these are for exp!!! If you're just out there killing monsters you're missing out on about 50% of the exp you can be getting. Most of the things you are killing are involoved in some sort of quest.

You guys might as well play east coast if you're playing alone! I'm in California but play these games to be with friends so I'm hoping to hook up with the other guys like Lasereth and RedJaket and maybe Crackprogram if he ever finishes downloading
Ever -Account on Sever 16 PVP East Ever - Human Mage Probably will resort to playing evenings but maybe an occasional daily session during the week.

All I have to say is... It took me no less than 12 different usernames to finally get one to register that wasnt already taken. And we are talking obscure stuff--I broke out the Silmarillion appendices and started trying random names. Eventually I just ended up having to tack a shit ton of number on the end of a name. I felt like I was on AOL trying to register a screenname...

The WoW downloader (Blizzard issued) has caused my PC to reboot 3 times,ended up downloading from Fileplanet,which errored out after two hours of waiting.
Looks like I'm getting it over the Network from a friend whose brother was in CB. WoW,why do you taunt me so? |

Goddammit...I'm sitting at 42% after about 24 hours and bored as hell. I connected straight to my modem since I kept getting a "Firewall detected" message whenever I was connected to my router. But instead of speeding it up, it just made it a more reliant 10kp/s...So frustrating considering how long I've been waiting for this game.

Open Beta Launched Today, Open Beta Download Finished Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow... How did some of you get this done so fast? 30 hours later I'm at 62%. If Blizzard uses this downloader for retail patches I'm going to refuse to buy WoW on principle. SOE may have ruined EQ but at least they're not too cheap to pay for bandwidth. Vivendi must be responsible.
