official World of Warcraft

Did they finally modify things so characters aren't naked at the sign-on screen?  I guess I haven't been paying attention.. 

Having a gf addicted to WoW is good  :yes:  Mine is so addicted that I only saw her for like an hour and a half this weekend because we played almost non-stop :)

They just did today. Lastnight it was still that way but today we see what we have which I have to admit is rather nice.

Oh and I just got back to ashenvale from my first treck to Ironforge. GOD that place is so nice. Got me a new bow as well :)

Lucky bastid ;)

My fiance would rather count grains of rice than immerse herself into the wonderful world of WarCraft.

Well my gf is a gamer man. We met while I was a Q3 ###### for almost 3 years. She said she owuld never pay to play a game and at the time I agreed with that. But once I started to play the open beta of Linage 2 I changed my mind a little and I bought l2 and played for a few. Now with WOW I sold all my linage 2 stuff and picked up WOW. GF said she would never try linage cause it was not her "type" of thing she said. But I let her play WOW and within a few hours she was addicted.

She still hates paying the monthly fee so I'm paying for her account as well as mine. Such is life though as long as we can play together which is something we have both wanted to do for a long time again. We just found different games to play that the other just didn't like much. Now finally WOW brings us to the same game so it is rather fun :)

I made my first trip to Ironforge about a week ago. I liked it so much (because of the Auction House) that I set my hearthstone to there! Druids more or less have two hearthstones - their normal one and one that teleports them to Moonglade. So, now I can get around fairly well :)

[acidic-e-]

nice but I'm a hunter so only have one for now :(

Sadly can't play can't log into my account server issues.

[scoult01]

Yep login issues are blowing atm, hope they get em resolved soon :(

You can search within threads now you know. To answer your question though, probably not--it seems all the people interested here are playing across different realms and personally I don't want to abandon all the work I've put into my character so far to begin anew.

The largest problem with WoW is that the content isn't big enough (it's already sprawling!) for the number of people that want to play. They have a crazy amount of servers and people are split across them and, as Mav Phoenix said, people are already invested in other servers.

And there are also PvE, PvP and RP servers which many people specifically chose.

I would be willing to start a new char so we could have a neowin guild. If anyone wants to, pick the server and let me know. We can start a guild charter shortly after. I'm on Daggerspine. It's PvP and Low pop.

Just hit level 40 today!

Plate Mail.....Check

Mount........Check

I'm so happy. :D

Can a mod sticky this?

[amoeba]

I hit 19.5! :p

Congrats Mav!

I miss being max-level :(

[tronmaster]

I love flying the Grifhon or Griffon or Griffin or well however you spell it. I love flying from Stromwind to Ironforge, and seeing the higher levels on the ground. I can't wait to go there when Im 40 something level. Right now Im at level 23 as a Warrior, very hard work I tell you. I should update my signature with my stats.

Been playing WoW since 1st day of retail, really enjoy it.

[mattmatik]

Well, I'm pretty ****ed off as of late. I've gone to several stores locally and nobody has the game in stock. It's really irritating and I'm not sure if it's due to the insane popularity of the game or just a lack of publishing enough copies. :angry:

Hopefully some place will get it in the next day or 2, spring semester will be right around the corner.

[demedial]

I'm sharing an account with a friend until the EU Final Beta starts, but eh, don't think I'm doing too bad so far:

(don't mind the extra text I added, this screenshot was intended for a friend's site who's making a list of helpful wow links)

If you happen to be on Whisperwind, give me a shout.

No sticky. As much as I enjoy WOW, it shouldn't get preferential treatment over other games.

New patch?!? Sweet

[acidic-e-]

Chad,

Just like Half-Life 2 is getting? Mav makes this thread for all things WOW HL2 gets one as well yet that one it at the top of this forum in Important topics. How is HL2 more important then WOW? Sorry but that is not right there are pepole who play this game on this forum who would like to NOT have to look for this thread all the time. Don't give HL2 preferential treatment over other games either thank you very much.

Anyways

Some screens from lastnight. This is from the Blackfathom Deeps Elite Quest. The Turtle that you see while he looks only like a lvl 25 he owns you when it comes to Damage and you get HALF of your normal inflected damage to him when you attack. I useally hit for 100+ this guy I was hitting for 30-40 or so. 3 people in this group no more (less you count my cat) We destroyed the Fathoms.

The second screen is of a lvl 42 elite giant that I found.

[Groovedude]

:| damn in all these screenshots always looks like so much is going on :| icons and text everywhere.

[acidic-e-]

The text is because I split up the combat and normal server/talk text box so that I could keep up with the talking for a group and not let the text from combat force it off the screen all the time. The icons are special things I can do as a hunter makes it easier to find (least or me)

Oh and As for that Elite quest that marks #3 for me. Took care of the one in Dolonaar on a Solo mission (no one would help me with it). Took care of the Iron war and now Blackfathom Deeps. Have about 5 more Elites to get done so far as well :)

[Schwa83]

How do you know if a Quest is Elite or not? And what was the elite quest in Dolonaar?

It says "Elite" in the quest log.

There is an elite timberling in Dolonaar that you have to kill he is a lvl 9 elite. And yes the quest will tell you if it is an elite quest or not right next to the name of it.

[Schwa83]

Oh, ok Thank you. I was not aware of that. Is there somewhere you can find your completed quests? I'd like to see if i did an elite one or not. Thanks! Sorry for the Noob questions.

[acidic-e-]

Not that I know of. And trust me you would know if you had done this one. My gf is playing a warrior and she did not get the quest (not sure why) I'm a Hunter and I did. The Elite in question is surrounded by about 8 other lvl 9/10 timberlings and the elite himself is inside of a cave. To be honest when I did it I really did not see many people over in that area so not sure many people have found it (but Icould be wrong)
