When is it coming out exactly, and how much will it be for the Aussie dollar, cause im not paying 100 bucks again after a few months of playing. maybe if it was around $ 60- 80 i wouldn't mind but yeah. Also when is it coming out.

July 2006 [img]smile.gif[/img] USA cost will be $39.99 I believe..

Hey, Burnzey, go on the guild website, and you will find that you could be playtesting beta already. There's a link right on the website, and some guildies are already doing it. In fact, you can grap a pre-made level 60 character.

Check it out. Send me a PM if you need more specific info.

And no I'm not going to do it. No time.

July 2006? I've heard it's been put back...a lot.

And what about the new alliance race? Murlocs seeming the hidden favourite, what with that "Origin of Murlocs" thing popping up, and a post about more murlocs coming our way...

Timber Loftis 03-14-2006 11:17 AM

Actually, guys, I've checked into it more and the BC test realm thing is limited to my guild. My guild on Dalaran made a test realm character for 1.10 in order to get a character for BC test.

Burnzey, if you want to play the test character, go to the guild website and sign up. If you don't have the url, pm me.

Sorry for any confusion, guys, but this thing is limited to my realm and guild.

Maybe this will drag the one or two of you who don't come around Dalaran anymore out of the woodwork. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

If you want to make your own 1.10 test character and power level it, you can have the opportunity to play BC beta, too.

Typical Blizzard. Reward the player that spends the most time sitting in front of their computer, not the ones that get there with the least amount of time /played. Looks like a sure thing if you have no job, no family, and no social life to speak of! [img]smile.gif[/img]

The new race is the Draenei for the Alliance.

Here is one as a NPC in WOW:

But this has not been officially announced yet, just so people know. It started as a supposed leak. There is evidence to support this one though, however the same goes for one or two other races.

True, but this way the Expansion will be tested ALOT and well, so when it does come about, it will be better for us casual gamers [img]smile.gif[/img]

The Burning Crusade.... RAGHHHHH!!!!!

They are just making the butchering of a once great plotline even worse. First Forsaken go Horde, then Blood Elves go Horde.

And Draenei? I once suspected that they would be the other alliance race (seeing as they are in the Outland alliance) but I expected better of Blizzard.

Me too, I hope Draenei isn't the alliance race but many fingers point to it. Still, I imagine the avatar will be redone to something...nicer.

Bah send the blood elfs to alliance.. probably attract more kiddies to our side and make us just like alliance, then where would we all go? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

FOR THE HORDE!! :D

Ivelliis 03-16-2006 11:53 AM

That's the plan, Blood Elves as a "pretty" race to even out the Horde/Alliance ratio.

People in Europe and USA generally liking alliance, they are more humanoids.

People in Asia generally liking Horde, as they are scarier.

(( I think that's right, although a large generalisation^ ))

So hopefully, a scary race for the alliance so more people from Asia play Alliance, but a pretty race for Horde so more Europeans/Americans play Horde.

O RLY? Where did you base this info from? Most asians I know like the alliance. Particulary the NE rogues.

I'm Aussie, not Asian. But i gotta admit more go to Alliance because of humans and they wanna be the 'good boys' of the game. Also because they know they are overpowering the Horde with their vast numbers. God i hate fighting Night elfs.. They always have to 'Emote'. (AKA, Spit, laugh, cry on shoulder..)

SpiritWarrior 03-17-2006 02:37 AM

I thought it was the overall anime look of a NE rogue with a bandana on. 'Nuff said.

Ivelliis 03-17-2006 02:50 AM

Can't remember where I read it now *sighs* Bad memory FTW

Like I said, huge generalisation, just repeating what I'd heard somewhere else. (I think it was WoW-Wiki, ain't sure).
