We are now 2 days away from the second World ofWarcraft Expansion and I personally couldn't be more excited. Hey everyone, before I get started I just wanted to introduce myself briefly. I have been playing World Of Warcraft for about four years and I play a hunter as my main. I have killed every boss there is to kill and have PVPed my way to a 2300 rating in season 2. I have a Protadin and a Resto Shaman as well, but my passion lies with my hunter.
My guild was stuck on M'uru when 3.0.2 hit, andthat night we cleared the whole zone without a wipe. Some say that wedidn't deserve the kill because of the content nerf, but I don't care. I finished B.C. (Burning Crusade) and totally feel I deserve it. I struggled through every boss as it was cutting edge and didn't get carried through it. I paid my dues and my repair bills with the rest of them.
Now as we approach Wrath, just as my colleague below mentions, we are all trying to sure up some cash, achievements, and our specs before the zerg fest that will be the first few days.
This is where I get to my point...
Will it be exciting, fun and amazing? Or will it be laggy, annoying and excruciating?
For me, the opening days of B.C. were the mostfun I have ever had in game. I play on a PVP server and it was glorious. Ganking was happening for sure, but camping/griefing wasn’t. I am for world PVP as much as the nextguy, no matter how annoying it may be, but nothing gets my blood boiled (punintended) more than the repetitive killing of a helpless player.
I’m talking about when the group of five hangsout on the Isle of Quel’danas and repeatedly kill the poor solo player just trying to get his mana remnants. When the previous expansion hit, this didn’t happen. People were too excited about leveling. There were some epic world encounters don’t get me wrong, but that’s where they ended.
In addition, the game servers for the most partwere very smooth. I didn’t experience any server lockups or shutdowns as well as a very limited number of hiccups. No one thought that it would run as smoothly as it did, and B.C. went out without a hitch.
The question is, will Wrath be as smooth? Will there be enough mobs for everyone? Will there be too much griefing on PVP servers? Will there be server shutdowns? No one will know until November 13th, but I personally have faith that we will have some fun times in Northrend this weekend, and I can’t wait.
This is an exciting time for most WOW players, but to some it will be nothing but headaches.
