ack from what you guys are saying, im not really impressed. I hope they fix their lag and server wait problems

edwhit 11-27-2004 09:10 AM

I played for 4 hours this morning (Saturday morning) and have had no lag whatsoever! WOOT!

Reese 11-27-2004 01:06 PM

Detroit -- Level 11 Night Elf Rogue -- Arthas (PVP) Server. I never played any CB/OB and I am having a very hard time making some coin haha. Anyone know any good ways for me to make some cash around my level, Im currently exping/questin in Darnassus.

Scorps 11-27-2004 06:01 PM

I forgot about this game....I hope I can still get the collectors edition.

what is your profession? If you are a rogue, I reccomend picking skinning and leather working, and Skin everything you can! light leather sells fairly well.

joeyaz 11-28-2004 04:40 AM

Made nedus mage on spinebreaker and bleeds warlock on bleeding hollow.

molloby 11-28-2004 07:50 AM

I just want to say that this game is awesome and I think it may be taking over my life: not necessarily a good thing.

Also, it's 10 to 3 in the morning and I've been playing almost all day.

Bleeding Hollow

Maze - Rogue - Undead (main character)
Gama - Mage - Undead
Mantus - Hunter - Ork

Drider_it 11-30-2004 04:20 AM

main two chars on lothar

Tenere human mage tailoring/enchanting woot i make green items then disenchant for the regents for enchanting.. best way

Baldrick dwarf hunter mining/engineering woot i get to use a boom stick shop smart shop S-mart ... pluz i can make my own ammo and weapons for the gun part hehe

plus side a pet .. they level with you. pwns anything IMO and you get skills that others dont. track humanoids, track beasts. unlike the rest of the clueless classes you can see them on the min-map.

on the main lag/server thing... i reserve my judgement for the time being 4 months down the road it keeps doing it then ill voice my opinion. *fish in the ocean*

in choosing a server look at the population.. if its red and high forget it 500 que to wait .. your gonna have half a day getting in there. your best be is the nightly/morning server reset get in while you can.

max number of chars per server is 10 max number of chars per account is 50.

if you cant find it ask a guard. they will spot a flag on your mini map and your overhead world map.

www.worldofwarcraft.com
www.worldofwar.net are two sites to go first.

beware of the UI.. user interfaces. blizzard is allowing them for now and most are free but they still have bug issues and could potentually spell doom for your account if they go against thier eula and tos.

Bonesaw 11-30-2004 10:48 AM

a friend bought me a copy for christmas (early of course). He got a deal on the regular copy when he bought the Collectors Edition. I've barely had time to install but I hope to see some of you guys online :D

At the moment this is who I've setup:
Khadgar--Phleshsaw (undead Rogue)

Locobot 11-30-2004 01:13 PM

I've settled in to a gnomish mage character on Burning Blade. There's so much to do all the time. My goal now is to make one level per day - currently lvl. 17. I can't wait to start pvp raiding once I'm ready. Mages draw an insane amount of aggression, I'm just starting to manage it so I don't get hacked to bits whenever there's more than two melee creatures. My armor is only 240 and that's with the frost armor spell.

Atomic Pinkie 12-01-2004 09:43 AM

i beta'd this game, if you have any questions especially about leatherworking and rogues, let me know. I played a NE Rogue to lvl 34 or so.

Esen 12-01-2004 04:17 PM

My life is in your hands,
Everyone I know is going,
Should I give up COH and join
Prolly meet up with you guys on Blood Hollow if I do

-Ever- 12-01-2004 08:57 PM

Bought a copy the other day and I'm waiting to install it till after this week when I've got a lot of makeup work done. I'm considering returning it and seeking out a collectors edition...

You guys think it's safe to load the game yet? I'm going to try to get the most out of my free month and I know there's been some bugs within the servers.

BuddyHawks 12-01-2004 10:44 PM

its been worth it so far
there has been more lag than i would prefer, but I've managed to get to lvl 22

The collectors edition pets are really neat, I'm jealous. Of course having an extra $30 is really neat too.

I haven't had any serious lag or a queue at all since the day it came out.

Locobot 12-02-2004 09:57 AM

Woooo! Blizzard is making up for the early lag problems. Bonus!

World of Warcraft Trial-Period Extension - Block on 12/1/04
World of Warcraft's record-setting first week brought hundreds of thousands of players together to adventure in Azeroth. The extremely high concurrency numbers that we've seen since the game's launch have required us to double our total number of servers over a four-day period, which is much faster than we had initially planned. This caused some issues with a few servers, and some players had difficulty logging in to the game during this period.
We are determined to provide our players with the best experience possible. It is for that reason that we are extending the one-month trial-period for players who created accounts before or during the downtime. The length of the trial-period extension will be based on when the player's account was created:


Accounts created on November 23 will receive a 4-day extension

Accounts created on November 24 will receive a 3-day extension

Accounts created on November 25 will receive a 2-day extension

Accounts created on November 26 will receive a 1-day extension
Our sincere apologies go out to all who experienced service disruptions. As always, we appreciate your patience and support, and we wish you good luck in your adventures in Azeroth!

Seething 12-02-2004 10:39 AM

I bought mine on the Tuesday it came out, so I don't get an extension. :(

I'm still loving the game. I'll post a screen shot as soon as I find a cool shot to take.

Jadedfox 12-03-2004 04:38 AM

Damn, Level 57 in...less than 2 weeks. Some people have too much time to spend on these games.

--jaded

00111000 12-03-2004 10:51 AM

Yeah that is pretty crazy. I would think that these people getting to high levels were 60's in the beta. They know the quickest route to 60 and probably have multiple people playing the account. I made 26 in OB and got that back pretty quickly since I knew the path to take. I'm now crusing slowly through the rest of the levels enjoying the content, working on my trade skills and just seeing all I can. Well that and making paste out of you Alliance scumbags! There are some really well designed areas in this game and some really cool buildings, ruins and towns.

One thing I really like are all the references to films and other types of pop culture. I went on a quest last night from Booty Bay to Gadgetzan, I had to stand on this platform while Chief Engineer Scooty calibrated it. Once that was done I got this rod that allows me to use that teleporter which takes you to Gadgetzan, the goblin on that side was named...Spork! He had a red shirt on and was a member of the Away team...good stuff!

BuddyHawks 12-03-2004 12:00 PM

Lvl 43 is the highest on my server.

I'm very impressed with the amount of content and detail this game has. i've only seen a fraction of it, and most people will never see all of it.

Some of the coolest things I've seen yet:

I'm fishing the Canals in Stormwind for about five minutes when these kids run up and join me :lol:
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~mcgilla/WoW/29.jpg

And checkout the freakin giant outside of Booty Bay!!! :eek:
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~mcgilla/WoW/28.jpg

And you cant fish in high lvl areas like bootybay since Blizzard has removed all the fish on account of hackers using fishing bots or some crap. And I had just spent a gold on the expert fishing book. They say they will have it fixed by the next patch, but i'm pissed.

00111000 12-03-2004 12:36 PM

Awww...what a pretty flower you got there Buddy! If I was on your server I'd make sure to put it on your grave!!!

I love fishing, I got the book right after they changed Booty bay :(. Oh well I still fish up some interesting stuff, you alchemists have been supporting me with buying all those Oily Blackmouths I've been selling.

I also have a very similar setup with my icons. Do you use any macros? There are a few quite good ones for hunters I've seen listed, ones that will switch your aspects when you switch weapons. I'm going to try those out tonight, since the more beer I drink the more I forget to switch off Cheeta and I bet you know how that goes. :)

http://www.thottbot.com/index.cgi?p=...nts.Destromath <-- My crap!

-Ever- 12-03-2004 12:49 PM

That's a big beast guarding that island! I think I'm going to wait until after xmas break to even install WoW. I'm hoping to take advantage of the month trial period and I'm heading home in two weeks where I won't be able to play (and I've got finals these two weeks...) Guess I'll stick to CS-S for some quick thrills for now ;)

Shadowclan Orc here.

My 200 buddies and I will see all you Alliance folks on the killing grounds.

Zeraph 12-03-2004 03:40 PM

I'm going to pick up a copy tomorrow. I want to play with you guys but Im on mountain time, anyone know how much difference the lag is if I play on the eastern server Bleeding Hollow?

Edit: Wait, are more people playing on bleeding hollow or warsong? Can we maybe get an updated roll call on who's playing where.

00111000 12-03-2004 03:43 PM

No real issue with lag, just the time difference. You should be fine Zeraph.

edwhit 12-03-2004 04:42 PM

Just wanted to pop in and say I'm loving WoW!

Attention to detail is putting it mildly! Every day I seem to discover new ways they have gone the extra mile on this game!

I'm playing Khadgar Alliance and Lliane Horde as well as half a dozen other servers when a server goes down!

If you like MMORPG, try this game!

MahlerIsGod 12-03-2004 06:56 PM

I think the first chinks in my WoW nirvana have appeared. Ever since I passed level 20 it seems that every quest you do you have to group and being the antisocial hermit that I am I am not down with that. That and my groupings thus far have been less than ideal. I guess I will have to wait and see. Later

Zeraph 12-03-2004 07:35 PM

I've played 4 other MMORPGs, grouping is always rough in the beginning because everyone is still learning and a lot of people are just focusing on leveling (ie only grouping with friends or soloing). Once you /friend some people grouping gets a lot better, that is what MMOs are all about after all.

Destrox 12-04-2004 12:15 AM

I'd just like to let you all know that I hate you all. Each everyone one of you who posted good things about this game...

I bought it today around 3pm~ish... its now 3am~ish... and I'm currently:

Dark Elf - Rogue - lvl 11

Again.. I hate you all, for I love this game.

noodles 12-04-2004 02:24 AM

lvl 21 dwarf hunter on pacific coast pvp server gorgonnash
lvl 10 troll hunter on atlantic coast pvp server lightning blade.

(started the troll the day i bought the game and the whole coast went down for a while; i didn't feel like waiting around. i switch to the troll when there's a server problem)

Esen 12-04-2004 04:41 AM

WOW
I tried all 8 places near me last night and I live in NYC!!!
every single place is sold out.

I can t beleive it,
Best buy got a truck in last night, they said there might be a few copies on it. we will see :(

Chingal0 12-04-2004 01:53 PM

Ya, this game is definetly draining my life.. worse than eq even. I've owned the game for about 72 hours and have logged over 35 hours on it, 72 including two 8-hour work shifts and a few hours of sleep.. Bad news.

But I do have a 21 troll mage on Ner'Zhul, a pacific PVP server. I guess it's a fair trade.

bltzkriegmcanon 12-04-2004 08:31 PM

Hell yeah man! One of my roommates got it and in about the same time hit 21. Night elf druid. He played about 14 hours in one sitting. Very sick. I got to 21 in about a week, and I felt satisfied in that.
