Ok own up who is the first to post that they have enterd TBC ??
Second place winner will be anyone who did not pre order...
Let the grind war begin to 70 :boxing: but have fun doin it :rockon:
Pray what, my dear apple sproutling, is TBC?
Wot he said
Scrub that, I know not of what I speak
Halfways to 61 on Jorgen for some reason, I entered Hellfire Peninsula just for fun to take a look around.
Ended up with 220.000 xp, 30g and a shitload of enchantingmaterials.
And now I'm at work, with no sleep at all and I'm gonna stay here for 8 more hours.

Isn't TBC that new part of WoW?
Aye, TBC is the very eagerly awaited expansion pack for WoW, copies of it were trading on Ebay for ridiculous prices last night - the total UK supply of the Collectors Edition was only 1,000, so they were trading for several hundred pounds each last night as people clamered to get in to the new part of the game.
I waited outside the Dark Portal last night for 'the event' at the opening which turned out to be no more than Blizzard doing a server rollback and disconnecting everyone several times; it was mad how many people were at the Dark Portal waiting to get in, thousands were there. Unfortunately, unlike those who managed to get their copy of the The Burning Crusade expansion pack (illegally) early, mine will not arrive until the postman does :sad: so I'll not be able to get a look at the new part of the game until later today.
In other news we're fairly sure that Dajo's team got the server first for the Furnace 1st boss, and Menedil's team got the server first for Ramparts first boss.
Gratz folks, see you on Outlands.
TL.
Imagine a event on the same level as for example the AQ event, this would end up with downtime on the servers, followed by loginservers crashing because everyone that disconnected will be trying to get online again.
Blizz had a choise, and tbh I think they made the right one and didn't bother that much about the event itself, but rather keep the servers pretty stable and giving us playtime with the game we all love.
I played nonstop from 1.30AM to 6 this morning without a single problem or a bug at all. :)
Mine turned up this morning after ordering it on Sunday, yes Sunday! from Amazon (via the affiliate link)
So much for pre-ordering :narnar: Looks like they anticipated demand and managed to get enough copies made :D
There are *loads* of normal edition copies available, the short supply was for the Collector's Edition, the UK allocation for that was just one thousand copies.
TL.
Postman delivered 8:20am today :)...woohoo....goodbye real life
Got mine today at 00.43 AM after 1 hour and 13 minutes in the queue in front of spaceworld.. No preorder which meant that the Collectors edition was not meant to be mine.. But got the regular one..
Now Im just waiting for my new computer to come up from Denmark so I can get the internet up and running :roflmao:
mine came 5 minutes ago, but I'm at work :(
No delivery heer eyet, so Amazon clearly gave my pre-ordered copy to Gandalf :norty:
Interestingly several of the MK shops have not yet received their stock, looks like someone hi-jacked the Milton Keynes lorry load :sad:

I've just looked at mine, it has an auth key with it so I can't upload the installers as they'd be no use without the key :(
Three CD's though, surprised it's not one DVD
4 CD's actually.. The fourth is in a separate 'package' within the case.. But yea.. Would've been more nice with 1 DVD instead of 4 CDs
theres a 4th CD behind the booklet in a cardboard sleeve.
Thats what I meant to be.. My vocabulary failed me :sad:
amazon decided to tell me yesterday that there was a problem with the order i placed in october. So i cancled it and i will b getting it today from the shops
lol, we posted at the same time i hadnt seen ur message :)

Ahh yes, so there is.
Hmmmm, new game smell :yahoo:

thank god I'm not the only one... CAD ftw
I took a big sniff in the case and everyone in the office looked at me funny. To which I grinned and shouted "NEW GAME SMELL"
I left mine at home to avoid distraction.. Overslept because of the late night buy time though.. Boss not happy.. Got the game though, so Ill spend the week reading the manual again and again :D
For everyone who posted above me and who will post here:

Quoteanxiety, panic attacks, sleep problems, dreaming about games, nightmares, shaking
Then I will have to say I don't have it..Thought I did actually, just in a mild version, but I guess I don't.. yepii

Just look how pretty it is :yahoo:
And I hadn't even pre-ordered it (or to be exact, the place where I pre-ordered didn't get nough), and just by pure coincident I went into another shop to look at some CDs, and there they had a couple left :woot2:

That ain't EVER gonna happen. :bleh:
My life is already pwned by LFS! :clap:
Dmn i didn't saw this post, i was allready playing :( (and i did not preorder, i got it as soon as the store opend :P)
Yeah umm, whats the starting level for the expansion set? just got to level 50 :-/
Well it adds new races, and Jewelcrafting as a new professsion, so technically you could say the starting level for it is 1. But the vast majority of the content - visiting Outland etc - is lvl 60+.
i think you can go in at lvl 58.
I can just say.... TBC ROCKS!
Well I can happily say your all addicted, me on the other hand, hasn't even bothered to get the Original disc.
So no "anxiety, panic attacks, sleep problems, dreaming about games, nightmares, shaking," for me. ^^
U DONT KNOW WHAT UR MISSING!!!!!!
sooooooo much content
Actually I do, T E C H N I C A L, ( His Cs:s name ) Has it and I make a charecter sometimes, but he's getting bored of it, Which means he's on Cs:s more.
I'll have to get him to Get the Expasion. xD
Finally got my internet up and running today, and damn I love it.. Got it up a bit late though, so Im looking at a 4 hours sleep tonight before work.. Which might not be that good, but damn Im happy now :D
Aye you got some catchup to do :rolleyes:
yea.. The rest of you got a slight head start, but if Im good, ill train myself to be able to function with only two hours of sleep 7 days a week, and I ought to get up there in ok time.. Although my work prevents me of total isolation.. Which Im rather happy for actually :D
u should be ok starting slightly behind everone else m8. It should meen that the quests are less crowded and it should b easier
....and the caffeine/sugar rush rolls on :norty:
TBC most defintely rocks. Great new instances, some real nice quest lines once you get into the key quest chains and the most excellent flying mounts!
TL.
:withstupid:
Although only been playing for 4 days, so only lvl 65 atm (64 really, but 1 hour away from 65), but so far its been nothing but an awesome experience.. Favourite area became Nagrand yesterday..
The new expension is awsome, but i dont like some of the zones (odly nargrand i really dislike, its all kill 30 of everything quests).
The new bosses and instances are well worth while and show that a lot of time has been put in. Allthough there are some bugs its less then i expected.
My favorite encounter so far is the 2 headed orge in shatterd halls who's heads fight amongst themselfs. :lmfao:
