I was talking about after-patch :p I've been playing for near 10 months.

I've heard the opposite. I've heard you can have the full 10 per server. Who knows.

Yes, it's my understanding that you can have 10 characters on a server, and you can use 5 different servers. So, you can have a total of 50 characters.

I just want to say that right now after the last week with the issues with the login server I really dislike Bliz right this minute. I do understand that issues to come up but the login server issues have come up WAY TO MANY TIMES over the last few weeks. Not to mention the fact that you can no longer post on the forums cause of that issue. Blizz really just needs to fix this issue once and for all it has been long enough already.

I've been looking in getting WoW but I?m not sure. I'm Wondering if you can have more then 1 character with you account, can you join other servers not just stuck on my one server, how easy is it to lvl, how big are the worlds.????

I agree. I've had the game all of 3 days and so far I've spent more time downloading a required patch through P2P (which is complete crap) and missed an entire afternoon of gaming due to servers being down. I've read through the Blizzard forums quite alot and many, many people are complaining of poor support service...which is what we get for $15/month (plus $50 for the game).

One thing Blizzard did do right is give a free first month for trial. From what I HAVE played in the game, I love it. This is my first MMORPG experience and aside the cons, it's been great. But, when my free month is up and issues like this are still plaguing the game...it's just not worth it. Come on, Blizzard, get it together. I know you can.

This Game is great! Probably the best most addictive game ive ever played. I recommend it to all my friends ... They buy it and love it.... This game made me not want to finish HL2... Yes they are still working out some stuff to make the servers run smooth.. but its worth it... They just released a patch that fixed a few things... But are working on more and should be released soon... Once they work out all the problems which shouldnt be long... This game will be FLAWLESS... I have faith in BLizzard.. Yea so its 12.99 a month... (went with the prepay for 6 months) ... There is a reason why you pay monthly.. They add stuff to the game all the time... Think of it as paying for expansion packs... And if your still worried about the monthly fee.... If you dont go to Mcdonalds 2 time in that month you can use that money towards it.. If there are people out there who still are undecided... Buy the game.. Get into the Windrunner Server and start questing with people ... you wont regret it. :alien:

Well, last night I did manage to pull a 4 hour session, questing with someone who knew the game pretty well. I went from a lvl 1 human priest to almost lvl 7 in that time.

Now THIS is what I was expecting from the game.  :D

I've had the game for about 20 hours now, and I've been playing for about 10 of them (no life...help me...)

I'm already level 12 and almost 13. Tee hee (plus I worked on a human mage myself, got him to level 7)

For the people asking about the snowman quest. Here is the deal.

Goto Ironforge and talk to Greatfather Winter as well as the gremlin dudes about the quests you need. Now the problem is to get the snowman quest you need to be close to lvl 30 because you have to kill an 36+ Elite Grinch in the mountians. Anyways after you beat him (after getting the stolen treats and talking to the snowman in the mountians you will get a mail from great father winter that gives you the snowman spell. It's a soulbound item so only you can use it.

my new pet got my warlock to lvl 20 this pet took about 5 hours to get sooooo much running around

also the SS looks like Crap becuase converting from taga to jpeg kills it

also i have to turn my Vid setting down because if i dont my 9600XT goes nuts

i get texture sound patch Wmo.mpQ errors i still get them with it turned down but not as many

newest chipset driver and bios

Only certain classes can get pets, Warlocks get minions, Hunters can tame and I think one other class can have a pet as well. I believe rogues get a mount as well at level 40. But no, you must be a certain class to get a pet and/or mount.

I wish i could buy a horse or animal to ride on :-(

I agree. It is supremely ludicrous that Blizzard chose to penalize players with the lack of viable trasportation until so reletively late in the game. Then again, they have followed the MMORPG recipe from the 90s to a 'T' so I don't know why I'm surprised.

I wonder if this is the 'mythology' elite quest I have in my log. I have spoken to the guys in IF and don't have another quest that could be a snowman quest. What is the exact name of the quest?

    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat - You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below). There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well. Options > Player > Keys Tip: there is a search box above the table. You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability.

    • No problems here using the new Outlook. In our company we started to default installing to users on new computers or when we're reimaging. But, if the user needs/ask for the classic one, we install it. Low reject rate at this point.
    • Yeah it's my only home/business computer. The Surface Pen magnetic Storage is on the left side, but it doesn't charge the Pen. I do the charging once every 6+ months by interchanging between 2 rechargeable AAAA batteries and charging the other via a USB A battery charger.
