lol I'll re-post what I said in the other thread. I quit playing WoW a few weeks ago simply because it was a life draining experience. You cannot put "I have a level 60 Rogue Human with full Shadow Craft and over 300g" on your resume.

Feel for those people who are past going for Blue 60 items and now on to the Epic 60 items!

Trust me you'll be back. I was. :(

well..I've tried it for the past 4 days on a guest pass from a friend who wants me to play..and honestly I got bored. All I've done is quest..quest..quest and run around for 30 minutes while looking for something to kill. I'm a level 14 warlock and I guess I'll give it another go but not sure if I'll stick with it the end.

I didn't look through them but here are hundreds of talent builds for ya.

Back to what was said above me though. I've not gotten bored of it yet. I'm currently taking a break though since my guild is taking longer than I am to get to 60. I've started on a couple alts now infact.

Well like every game, World of Warcraft isnt for everyone. I personally really enjoy playing the game, however i play it a lot less now. There just isnt enough high end content thats easy to do right now. The 1.7 patch will help fix that by adding a 3rd battleground and a 20 man instance. Currently I run Molten Core whenever i have free time, but i dont cancel any plans to run MC instead. I have 2 pieces of the cenarion set and the stormrage helm on my 60 druid.

I think that when blizzard finally releases an expansion pack with a lot of new content it'll really get a lot of people to play the game more often. Right now though it seems as if they are flooding the game with epic gear so my guess is that in a few months legendary gear might start to become more frequent. Im still waiting for the druid cat form improvements for the 1.7 patch and the talent review that will also come with the 1.8 patch.

I loved playing it, I feel its horribly lacking now.  I quit about 4 months ago, and just recently re-activated my account for one last month.  had a fun few hours playing, but just got back into the same old groove...

The test server is up with the 1.7 patch on it for everyone to try. I tried out the new battleground and the new instance and there is some really nice gear. Also the changes made to the druid cat form is really nice and the paladin Hammer of Wrath is pretty cool too. I cant wait for it to come out on the regular servers.

^I think its 60 only (well you could probably get in with 58, but ... no real point in that - just guessing here).

I've been playing WoW since the US closed beta, then on to the US open, Korean, EU closed, EU open.. and since release. There's just a lack of stuff to do at 60. Sure lvling is nice, and the way to 60 was quite nice.. but thats it then. Its like a normal sp game, except that you're getting the feeling you are playing something big with lots of people. The truth is that once you get to 60 there's nothing to do.

MC? For what? A gear with a few more +'s and better stats? Then BWL, for even more of that? I want to friggin do something, not grind for gear 24/7. :rolleyes:

I'm afraid when the hero classes come it will just be like another lvl and some new gear. Perhaps a new instance or 2 and a couple of quests to get you going. And then what? Same **** over again?

I've quit once a few months ago, then bought a gtc last month. Thought the BG's would make it more interesting. But they didnt really. Most people play it every day, to get to exalted.. and then they never want to see it again. I'm kinda feeling the same. Sick of both sides exploiting and the whole place is kinda unbalanced anyway.

Then there's the bugs bugs bugs. They really should focus on FIXING some very damn annoying bugs that have been there forever and that are known bugs.. like the vanish crap instead of pushing out new stuff that breaks other stuff with every patch.

Also I'm not liking how they pretty much nerfed all the classes, yes all. Compare any class from the US beta with the situation now. Its nerfed, there are some buffs but overall there are more nerfs. Yes i know.. whine whine.

Support never was a good side of WoW. There are guilds on my server exploiting Azuregos (even ninja pulled him once.. we went on to kill him because the tagged thingy is a known bug with him.. BUG, they got the kill of course).

Guess i had to rant a bit about it now.. off to go play my mage on the new released EU server (that had 8k queues on the day of release, now went down to 1k ish). Not reneviewing anymore, and this time for good. I lost all faith they will ever make something out of the game.

I got the game yesterday for one of my sons, installed it and setup an account, no problem.

When we try and play the game its always says "Unable To Connect".

Looking through many, many forum posts from various sites I see that its a common problem but I dont seem to of found an answer.

Its been installed on his and my PC, Ive opened ports, disabled firewalls, turned off firewalls, it is not a firewall problem.

His account is "active and can be used for playing".

Is it normal being unable to connect for a couple of days at a time?

For the love of god someone please help me, I am completly out of ideas.

Thanks.

Nopes i've never known connection issues to last days. Did you check the server page to see the status of the server ?

Europe here

US here

I'm sure there are others but I don't know the links for them, sorry.

Other than that, if you are certain its not a firewall issue, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling ? A pain I know :(

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
