WoW Alpha

[Fightersuntzu]

Oh, and for people on the more moderate side of computers, i can run WoW on:

800 mhz p3
512 RAM
Geforce 3 MX440 or something (Crappiest card ever. Blagh. )

At decent resolution with decent options, i can run it at uberhuge resolution and full settings but it can get a little slow with speed

Forgive me for being dumb but, isn't this the DAoC forums?

yeah and wow kinda relates to that beeing a new mmorpg ..

btw something i found in an interview on some forum ..

....I saw the gates to the undercity and they were guarded by these 2 huge abominations! Guards WILL be attackable and even killable but its probably unwise to do so as killing a guard will get the rest of the guards on you ass GTA3 style and you will eventaully have to die or flee. Also you are freely attackable when in another faction's city. So high level players can raid opposing cities but you will need a big group and lots of luck to survive for long.......

imo thats very cool ( if true )

it is all very cool tbh, I can't wait

if you wanna go down south , past Searing Gorge, you will encounter that empty part of the zone you might fall down in...
to get south without swimming (cheating ), simply jump over the mountains at the spot i marked on this map:

l33t map

perhaps its just me thats stupid, but i spent some time figuring how to get past that zone
hope this helps some of you...

Oh, and the underdark - Undead city - is just as big as the other ones. Theres a surface thing, kinda like a small keep - the ruins of Lordaeron. In like the throne room theres a passageway that leads down to the main city, it looks very....green like radioactive waste for everyone !

And the Human capital isnt even complete yet, and it is huge

I assume the pvp is going to be faction based and stuff, but we'll have to wait and see.

- Siege gear will be in the game for PvP, although it will not be a trade skill. It was unclear to me how, exactly, siege gear will be implemented.

- Uberguild dominance of PvP is not likely. The devs have some ideas about this, too, including such things as limiting entry to PvP areas by level and skill (as determined by previous performance). Other ideas were not yet ready for discussion.

- Nothing in-game prevents one faction from invading the cities of another faction; whether this would lead to any lasting benefit for the faction remains to be seen.

PvP sounds good, but if you can invade all areas of the enemy realm, it could be a disaster. Sounds to me like you can walk into the enemy realm and everything is fine, but once you start attacking people the guards will come for you... and keep coming for you until you get zerged. So the 'invasion' PvP is probably a race to see how far you can get before the guards+players stop you.
