What's the monthly fee for this game, and what's the minimum graphics card requirements?

[Napoleon Insists]

First month=free with game (costs about $40-60 now), from then on 15-20. WORTH IT.
PC doesn't need to be too good, just a decent internet connection.

Well I'm having a good laugh at myself atm; 'went back onto Boulderfist to play my Warlock because it had been ages since I had even played that character and now I'm basically up the creek without a paddle because I couldn't even remember how to play it.
'Must be too much for me to try and remember it all, considering that I have the Warrior & the Rogue to remember how to play as well.


I'm also finding it a little bit being difficult  getting into the right way of game play whenever I get the chance to group  with each different character compared to just usually soloing on my own, silly as it sounds; I personally think that it's because when I solo on my own , the way  that I do things  is a little bit different compared to the way that some people do things  as a group, which for me takes just a little bit of getting used to.


LOL

[Napoleon Insists]

Yeah solo'ing is a lot different to groups... Generally hunters kick ass at solo'ing but in a large instance group they can't do much but pull, and then their ranged is shot because the agro's on them. Oh well.

[dashrendar1965]

This is just not fair ! The 3 Horde Runners who are apparently part of a quest that I have got no idea about and who I have occasionally seen walking around the Loch in Loch Modan  killed my Rogue on Icecrown for no apparent reason the other day and I'm not very happy about it.

I was playing my Rogue the other week working out how to take out an 18-19 elite Mo'grosh Orge, when all of a sudden the 3 of them just seemed to appear out of nowhere, so I was pretty relieved at the time that I had my Rogue in stealth mode already when I noticed them
Anyhow, I was back in the area the other day just doing a bit of skinning  with my Rogue and nowhere near where I saw them the first time, when all of a sudden there they were right in front of me and once they saw my Rogue it was on, so needless to say, she was dead in the blink of an eye.

I've seen them on Boulderfist as well, but I've always stayed clear of them.

lol

[Napoleon Insists]

I had 300 skinning, but I buy most of my leather... so I decided the other day I'd change to engineering. Currently about 100 engineering...
Plus I bought a polearm worth 40g for 13g, lost a bid on the sweetest gun ever, etc etc.

[Whysmell]

Hopefully i should be geting a new computer soon, which would mean i would buy WoW which would lead me to ask the question, what server are you guys on?

Myself, I'm on two servers atm : Boulderfist (a player vs player server)with my Warlock & also Icecrown( a normal server) with my Warrior & Rogue, but  you can still go into pvp mode on a normal server as well if the Horde are doing a raid on a particular place; speaking of which they seem to be doing a lot lately on Icecrown for eg the other week there were about 20 fairly high level Horde players all lined up outside the gates of Stormwind City just sitting there waiting for the opportunity  to take on any Alliance players who wanted to challenge them, so in the end after the other Alliance players turned up, it was on for young and old; and apparently the Horde were also trying to break into Ironforge to kill the King, which if they had succeeded would have really stuffed everything up. lol

[Whysmell]

I think i might end up on Blackrock. Its the unofficial Aussie server

[Dazza_189]

If you wanna be around forum members ie me and insano, go on Boulderfist... If ya wanna be on the Aussie server then yeah go Blackrock.

[Master Chief]

WORLD OF WARCRAFT SPOILER BELOW!!!

Master Chief is going to buy WoW very soon and kill everyone he sees with his uberl33t skillz0rs.

MUA HA HA!

[dashrendar1965]

It's good to know that there are some Aussie servers on there; it needs more of them as well as  more Aussie Guilds too.

Rendar & I like being  a bit patriotic like the Yanks sometimes, so a mainly all Aussie Guild is what we are in on Icecrown.

lol

[Napoleon Insists]

Nyeh there are currently 3 reasonable sized Australian guilds (Alliance) on Boulderfist, and at least 1 horde one I know of. It doesn't make any difference anyway - if you want the help of Guildies on either side, come to boulderfist.

BOULDERFIST FTW!
Also lvl 47 now, I got a blue Polearm for less than half of what it's worth, which is sweet. Will take me a while to get polearm skill up though.
Make sure you're on a PvP server though.
Roleplaying servers are just full of dirty NE sex.

[Whysmell]

Well i found out today some people from school are on Blackrock, so Illmost probably end up there

[Master Chief]

I am like.. getting it either otmorrow or the day after.. just ordered it then, shipping from Sydney, $58.43 =D

[Dazza_189]

lol Dave is gonna be a WoW noobie.

Are you goin on Boulderfist Dave?

[Napoleon Insists]

Go on boulderfist and me and Ranna might help you.
I could kill everything you face in 1 shot. SO NYEHHH.

[Master Chief]

I don't know what Boulderfist is.. :$

[Dazza_189]

It's the realm/server that me and insano are on. You'll be able to join The Incredibles guild that we're in as well, just use us as references hehe.

[Master Chief]

ok and then i will pwn everything in my path, except for you guys =D

I suppose that's true; although there's just one small problem that I've personally already come across both myself and from reading the WoW forums and that is the difference in time zones in general between America & Australia; for example if the majority of members in a guild are American players( or even Canadians), most of them  usually aren't online at the same time as Aussie players are.

I have found that  kind of situation is kind of  happening in the Guild that I   joined,( but didn't really want to) on Boulderfist.  ps  I was hoping to rejoin the Incredibles Guild, along with Rendar but they weren't recruiting any new members at the time when we spoke to Insano about it.
 :wink:

And yes, Insano's character can kill everything in one shot.  lol

[Napoleon Insists]

Yeah sorry dash I wanted to get you on but the officers weren't online.
Only problem with timezones is when it gets late here it's when they're at work or something... After school and in the mornings is usually fine, and you can find enough people to quest with.
Went into a lvl 60 elite instance today, tagged along with some ex guildies.

No prob; I did check out their web site though as you mentioned re: joining the Guild through there,but I saw the thread about recruitment being placed on hold because of internal restructuring taking place at the time and I wasn't really sure how long it was going on for.

 I finally took my Warlock off  into The Barrens to try and finish off a Warlocks quest  when I was on Boulderfist the other night; but when I finally got to where she was meant to be going, the Horde saw her , ended up killing the voidwalker & then started chasing after her but  I did  manage to hearthstone her out of there just in time. lol

Edit - That's it, I've decided that I am going to go on a huge Gankathon with my Rogue once I level up a bit more; my Warlock just got killed again in Lakeshire as usual , this time by a lv 60 Horde something or rather( I didn't stay around long enough to find out ) LOL

[Master Chief]

Ok I am jus tfinishing installing the 5th bloody disc now (hahah, more than HL2!) so I will see everyone soon lol... My nickname will be Putnum (remember that name everyone?? =D) and yeah, i'll go boulderfist first.. I might be jumping across to another server with this other guy that has several characters over there, we'll see how things pan out hey =D  Don't kill me!  I'll be a warrior.

Yes it does take a while to install, but worth the wait; have fun playing & 'hope to  see you online; I won't kill anyone except the Horde. LOL

[dashrendar1965]

Come on peoples, please start telling about some of your adventures on WoW because I certainly  don't want to eventually bore everyone with all of mine. LOL

[Master Chief]

well I just reached level 17 travelling back and forth from darkmore to the forest and westfall.. I can't wait to head over to the wetlands where I had to run through hehehehe.. It was really cool, for those that aren't on WoW, Dazza_189 was in front of me and Dashrendar was behind me and they guided me through so that nobody could kill me  then later on, we all met at this place called Ironforge and we all sat down and I took a screeny lol.. but I'll post it later =D

Everyone keeps giving me all this money so the game is actually REALLY REALLY easy if you play it safe and do heaps of quests.  I encourage everybody to start playing it, especially Eyce because I heard he wants to get it =D

[Napoleon Insists]

Noone ever gave me money till I got to level 40... for my mount And I had to pay it back.

[dashrendar1965]

Well I've certainly learnt a valuable lesson -: under no circumstance should you ever stop to wave back at a Horde player on PvP just because you might think at the time that they are waving at you  to be friendly, especially if you are in Contested or Horde Territory ; it's just an ambush waiting to happen.

Anyhow, my Warlock finally made it to The Barrens(stupid Horde territory) after the ambush incident that happened  just before there in Ashenvale(Contested) only to end up running around all over the place  trying to find the guy she had to see for her Warlock quest; now he wants  her to go back into some place in Ashenvale to do the rest of it - I'd like to know who's stupid idea that was !




Remina yells:  HELP ! I'M BEING GANKED AGAIN ! [/b]
Everyone whispers: Geez, that  Putnum guy is doing OK for a nOOb ![/b]
Aimless whispers : Can somebody please tell me whereabouts  all of the female Dwarves hang out in Ironforge ? ?[/b]
Remina says :  Hey everyone, Ranna sure is a cool looking Night Elf [/b]
:wink: :wink:

LOL

[dashrendar1965]

OK, 'just looked at the new Dressing Room feature at the AH and it looks pretty cool; at least I'll be able to colour co-ordinate my characters' clothes now before I buy.

I also got  photobucket up and running last night, which I didn't even think about using until now; just look up dash007 on there. I've put  most of my   current characters in there ie my Warlock, both Rogues and Warriors(ie old & new) & a couple of Rendars' & his mates' characters; there's also a good one in there of the Wetlands run we all did with MC.

Rendars' mate also got  us to get goteamspeak , so now we'll be able to  talk live to eachother  online in the game as well.

lol


Edit - LOL Rendar just got done by the 3 Horde Runners in Loch Modan when he was in there with his Boulderfist character ; about time
