I took it back to original store, and they didn't believe it was broken or something, so I waited for almost 2 hours as they tried all these different video connectors and stuff. Finally they just gave me a refund, and I drove to the Apple store in the mall, and bought the same computer there.

yeah, i'm not surpised that they didn't take it right back. that's kind of an odd occurance. did you get it at an applestore, compusa, or somewhere else?

It's called Fry's Electronics. I dunno if it's a national store. Seems like it though.

They suck.

haha. yeah i saw them on the apple retailers sections of apple.com. i only go to applestores when i can (like right now i'm about to drive to the nearest one in Richmond, Va), but sometimes i have to go to compusa's just cause they are closer.

CompUSA has some bad customer service too... I tried to buy a laptop with my dad there about 2 years ago, and it took them 45 minutes to come out and tell me that they were sold out. After I paid for it.

ROFL! yeah they must have the worst customer service in the history of retail. everytime i have ever had a question, it took 45 min to find a rep who wasn't busy or actually had some clue of what i was talking about. i usually just look up info on the internet, cause it takes less time or call an applestore. the reps at applestores [in my experience] have always been really helpful.

Damn, that sucks. There is one in the mall about 15 minutes (with light traffic) away. Closer to a half hour with heavy traffic.

MAaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. I've just been reading past articles and interviews and all that shit about the game. I haven't really read much about it until last night, to be honest. But damn, I'm really pumped for this. The way it sounds, it seems like it will be a nice mix of Diablo and Warcraft. The way the quests are and all makes it seem very Diablo-ish (which IMO is very cool), while keeping the awesome Warcraft feel to it. I hope to God that I can test the beta out, although I highly doubt that. I just hope the game isn't horribly delayed, 'cause if I can't play it within the next year or two someone might get hurt.

At least an MMORPG can't get stolen (like Half Life 2) so we don't have to worry about it being delayed because of that.

And it looks like a billion people are trying to play beta, so hopefully a lot of the bugs will be caught and filtered out before the final release.

Are you serious man?

Fucking people, I swear to god. If WoW gets delayed because of some hackers, I'm going to track them down and beat the shit out of them, and then make them eat their own shit.

They are posting on the Blizzard.com and WorldOfWarcraft.com that the betas will be sent out soon and that you are going to get the game by the downloader. So expect them to be out by about Friday.

The first round of beta emails has been sent out.

If you didn't recieve one they are going to send more at the start of each phase so there's still a chance.

And also RDD from what I have heard it is much more like the conventional MMORPG than it is diablo. This isnt bad, because the way everything all fits together is awesome.

I heard this stage of beta isn't that good. It looks quite nice though. They put in a two headed ogre that you can have 2 people play on the same character.

Actually, there are people petitioning to actually put it in now.

the beta is pretty good, but i'm having a tough time. the graphics look nice at 1024X768 with all other settings maxed, but it makes the game lag a bit more...and not my comp, but the actual servers. there aren't a lot of ppl on so i don't see why the servers should be lagging, but they do. it takes like a full minute for your spirit to respawn after dying most of the time. i started as a night elf priestess since the quota for night elf hunters was full; this screws me over since most of the quests (at least those that i've done so far) involve killing progressively stronger and larger groups of creatures...something a caster isn't very well suited for. i can't even recall how many times i've died...i made the mistake of wandering into starbreeze village, which is overrun with angry furlborgs, and had to die 20 times to get out. each time you die, your spirit reforms in the nearest village and you have to run to where your body is: or you can pay this bimbo npc 45 XP to resurrect you right there (**** THAT!). so then each death requires an odyssey back to where you died, and when you come back, your are almost dead. so you run ten steps, die again. rinse, wash, repeat . i've had it crash 3 times, and i've gotten disconnected from the server like 5 times. usually it likes to crash on the completion of a quest. not a big deal. just reopen the game and log back on and you are right back where you left off. the quests, for the most part guide you along a plot path...although there are the occasional 'gopher' quests, but they all yield decent experience. some of them are gay, cause they tell you to kill something that there are 3 different variations of, such as night sabers (tigers). one quest you kill 'young' night sabers, then in another you kill 'mangy' night sabers. they look practically the same on your screen and they are not interchangable for the quests. then there are the 'stalker' night sabers that appear out of nowhere (they have shadowmelding that works in broad daylight too ) and slaughter you. where it gets frustrating is that i was just start to really level up (i'm at 5 now) but now all the creatures gang up on you. so if you attack something...or something attacks you, all the surrounding creatures come over to **** YOU UP. as a priestess, this is especially damning, because if they hit you twice in quick succession, it interrupts your heal spell...i.e. wimpy priestess gets owned in 5 sec. and of course you don't even have the agility to outrun even the shittiest enemy.


anyway, if anyone has questions, i'll be glad to answer them if i can...i'll post some screenshots later...

i finally got on and played it again. this phase is limited to alliances and hordes races, so i can't continue with my nightelf character :/ . i took some scenery screenshots: http://homepage.mac.com/opaldrake/PhotoAlbum6.html
they are big, but i wanted to preserve the quality. here's a link from a guy that does a lot of spell screenshots, which are considerably more flashy: http://www.xennon.co.uk/jadedsouls/viewtopic.php?t=34

BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT® ANNOUNCES WORLD OF WARCRAFT® "STREET DATE" - NOVEMBER 23, 2004
Highly anticipated massively multiplayer online game to release simultaneously in multiple regions for the holiday season

IRVINE, Calif. - November 4, 2004 - Blizzard Entertainment® today announced that its eagerly awaited massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft® will be in stores in North America on November 23, 2004. World of Warcraft will launch simultaneously in Australia and New Zealand, and is planned for release in Korea, Europe, and other countries throughout Asia shortly following. With a monthly subscription, players in these regions will soon be able to experience the epic adventure of the Warcraft® series in an immersive and continually evolving online environment.

In World of Warcraft, players assume the roles of legendary heroes and interact with thousands of other players online as they explore and adventure across a vast world. Whether journeying together or questing on their own, players will engage in heroic battles, develop friendships, forge alliances, and compete with enemies for power and glory. The game features customizable character classes with thousands of weapons, spells, and abilities. With an innovative, easy-to-use interface, an action-packed combat system, and thousands of quests that build an immersive storyline, World of Warcraft offers a MMORPG that will appeal to both veteran and casual players alike.

"World of Warcraft has been our largest undertaking to date," said Mike Morhaime, president and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment. "When we set out to create a massively multiplayer online game, our goal was to expand the scope of the Warcraft universe by offering an incredibly dynamic game experience. We're extremely proud of the game we've created, and we believe players will be very pleased when they see what we have in store for them."

World of Warcraft will be available for Windows® 98/ME/2000/XP and Macintosh® formats at a suggested retail price of $49.99 in the U.S., and will include a free one-month subscription to the game. The special collector's edition of World of Warcraft will also be available at release for a suggested retail price of $79.99 and will include the World of Warcraft game on both CD-ROM and DVD, a free one-month subscription, a World of Warcraft behind-the-scenes DVD, an exclusive in-game pet, a cloth map of the game world, a soundtrack CD, an Art of the World of Warcraft coffee table book, and a commemorative game manual signed by the development team.

After the initial free one-month subscription ends, players of World of Warcraft will be able to continue playing under one of three different subscription plans. The month-to-month subscription plan costs $14.99 per month, the three-month plan costs $13.99 per month, and the six-month plan costs $12.99 per month. World of Warcraft subscription fees can be paid by major credit card, PayPal, and pre-paid game cards, which will be available in stores where World of Warcraft is sold. World of Warcraft has received a Teen rating from the ESRB.
