K got another drive installed plenty of space to work with now. and both fileplanet, and their bittorent download going. Looks like I wont get to play till tomorrow evening though, that pesky job of mine gets in the way of everything.
Ill join that US east 2 server as soon as I get home. Ill see yall there!
I just barely got mine in, then. Few hours is all that separated me from you .
I, however, am confused as hell about this game . Being an MMORPG virgin ... it's just ... not making sense . I understand there's quests and stuff, and I did one or two. But. I don't get the point . Do the different tribes ever get to meet at some point ?
I started with a Night Elf (hell, I can't even remember if that's the right name...) and also tried futzing with the bull-like guy. First of all, the "having to wait to reattack" business is really annoying/stupid. Prolly just not what I'm used to (grew up with Zelda, Metroid, etc. basically), but it's really stupid, sorry. And wtf do you guys mean by "US East 2" server? I see (and was on) Test 2 in Eastern Timezone, but couldn't find Thrax (Ghrall). Would we have to be the same species? Sorry if I sound like a noob, but, well, it's because I am, lol.
I just started in and am figuring out what server to rock out at. Tons of my (RL)friends are getting this also.
Are you guys playing on a PvP or Normal server? Which is better? I was playing on Normal (test 26 to be exact) and wasn't very satisfied with the gameplay - but I didn't give it a fair chance yet (level 4 NE druid)
Everything blizzard makes is gold. They have real artists working there. I highly admire them and will keep trying to get a job on that cinematics team .
And yes I also played the stress test and it was amazing.. for the first time in an MMO I actually had fun just exploring cause the world is hand crafted and not pre generated *cough* swg *cough*
Enter the Open Beta Authentication Key into the fields below. Please note that account creation is currently only available for those with FilePlanet Final Stress Test or Open Beta keys.
WHERE DO I FIND THIS AUTHENTICATION KEYS?!?!?!?!!?!
please help me... I wanna play soo badly...*starts crying
i went to file planet and all their links just take me to the account signup page on WoW... and asks me for a key I don't know if I have.
I do know that I spent a very long time waiting and hoping... DOWNLOADING 2.4 GB of a game I have yet to play, and uploaded 3GB of the game to other people... it hogged every last bit of my cable connection and could hardly play EVE Online becuase of it.
I have been through gamers hell... and have yet to come out of it.
Wow, no pun intended. Best MMORPG I've played, and I've been addicted to a couple in the past. I now have 4 chars: Lvl 15 Troll Hunter (ketoteka), Lvl 9 Tauren Shaman (ketoo) both on East 2, Lvl 6 Gnome Warrior (Combovar, care to guess his hairstyle?) on (40?), and a Warlock somewhere I haven't played much.
My favourite by FAR is the Tauren Shaman. So far, most of the quests have truly helped develop the character, rather than just being hack and slash XP hounding. I just arrived at the big city (something Bluff) and it's incredible in design, a true visual wonder. Highly recommend anyone try this path.
Levelling is in general fairly slow after 7 or 8. I put in a good 6-7 hours on the hunter today and only made 1 level, tho there are some quests I've taken that are impossible to solo with this char and he is overdue for a weapon upgrade. Someone putting in a couple of hours a night a few nights a week is gonna make very slow progress.
The biggest drag is the long distances that need to be travelled at times with no alternate mode(s) of transportation. And they need to put a few more graveyards around so you don't have to trot your ghost 19 miles to resurrect, even worse if you have to res in the middle of a swarm of agro mobs as you may be making that long hike again right after you arrive.
I haven't had a lot of time to play this, and probably won't this week, but I would like to mention that if you're ever playing a Gnome Warlock, if the letter you get telling you to meet the first Warlock Trainer uses the correct spelling "discreetly" (vs. the homophone "discretely"), you can be sure it's because of your friend EMT. w00t:)
Well boys, the fun is over. The open beta ends later today (Nov. 18).. I hope those of you who got a chance to play had a fantastic time -- Looking forward to see you willing people in the retail release.

Well, or if you just created an account on https://signup.worldofwarcraft.com earlier this week. No key was involved there.
