hey i quit WoW about a year and a half ago at lvl 58. I'm a lvl 58 night elf hunter at Korgath that has completely nothing. i let my friend take my account and send gold and sell everything i had to his account and we both have quitted, but i feel like going back now i just started 2 days ago. I only have a couple of silver at hand and no clothing and weapons... what should i do to get back together if its possible?

go grind low lvl area's to get some money and random drops. or you could join the usual scum and beg in general chat but be prepared to be ignored quickly :D

Did the whole game just go down? I know they're doing realm restarts tomorrow (Monday the 15th) but I can't even get to the realm list... :s

They released a new patch, which is now causing my game to read "Unable to verify game version" whenever I try and login. Time to re-install I guess.

I think a lot of people are complaining today that they can't log in because of this patch ... maybe that's what is messing up your game?

Yeah, I installed 2.0.5 probably an hour ago or so. Since then I get to 'authenticating' but then I always get "Disconnected from server".

Update: When I start the game, there's a new message stating:

[08:10am PST January 14, 2007]

There is currently an issue that is preventing some players from logging into the game. We are working to resolve this issue as soon as possible and apologize for the inconvenience.

I guess that's what I get for installing a new patch right away...

Haha. Well, it gives me time to re-install my game then ... I wonder why they released this on the weekend though?

Who knows... I'm sure every single Blizzard employee is running frantic with TBC coming out in 2 days though.

Updated in-game message:

[08:10am PST January 13th, 2007]

The 2.0.5 client-side patch has caused issues with our authentication system. These issues can cause players to be suddenly disconnected from the game as well as prevent them from logging in to the game. We are working to resolve this issue as soon as possible and will provide you with updates as soon as they are available.

Well at least they figured out what the issue is and hopefully it's fixed pretty quickly. Too many times have I seen a patch shut the game down for an entire day or longer :/

Critical fixes. They tend to do them when you get bugs that alter gameplay majorly.

Really... :rolleyes: I was just waiting for the typical Blizzard response of "we're looking into it" since it was the weekend, but they did fix it pretty quickly.

and i think that is why there are so many comments on WOW being no good at level 60. If RP has never been your taste why buy an RPG?

I still love it.

I bought NFS the other week, crap game, i drove around one lap and the rest of the game was exactly the same just driving a car around roads and adding new items to my car.

oh and I hate cars and driving.

Why did you buy a driving game if you hate cars and driving? :p

Download and install but I haven't got any patch since 2.00 (lost intreset till BC), and I'm not about to sit around and wait for damn updates from Blizzard Downloader. Got a premium membership over at Alla and I'll just download the patches from there. Easy enough.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years

      Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows 11 gets big performance upgrade, shared audio support, and more in new update

      By mrp04 · Posted

      Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
