So who here ( besides me ) is lucky enough to have been able to explore the Wonderfull World of WOW
Plz share you thoughts and comments .
Some of my findings
-World is HUGE from what i have seen the total map is as bigg as all 3daoc realms + frontiers merged together . there are even some tropical islands that arent even listed on the overhead map .
-Fps is very nice . In normal landscape i have about 60 - 100 fps and in bigg city`s like stormwind it doesnt drop below 40. in daoc i have 20% fps less on average . but i cant really compare the two sinds i played wow with only 1 person on server and daoc doesnt like ati `s
-The Sandbox server had only 1 character and i wasnt able to visit the other continent this one seems just as large if not bigger .
-It took me 2 hours walking from the undead city to the human city without using speed mod.
-The world looks absolutely STUNNING Blizzard really mastered the art of making a world with low polygon count (compared to some new mmorpg`s who seem to focus more on Naturalism then on gameplay ) but beatiful textures come to life . The atmosphere created by this plus the music will take your breath away more then once .
-No loading whatsoever . Enter cities and dungeons seamless and without any loading i didnt even hear my HDD load up when i enter a new area. When i red about Blizzard trying to have a non loading game i was like bigg deal i dont mind loading for 10 sec , but now its here i think its great and dont wanne go back.
-Underwater swimming is great and i think theres great potential in underwater raids and questing .
-Map isnt finished .. Discovered some islands half done and some not on map . and there are allot of land plots in the middle of the ocean which arent part of the game but ofc this is a 11 dec version and they prolly fixed all this .
-Horde has some nice races but they are all more or less ugly
Ok i like the Male Tauren and Orc also undeads are nice but compared to Humans and Nightelves a choise is easily made. Ofc the horde should be the more ugly side but this might cause a problem if these sides are suppost to fight eachother in the pvp zone because most ppl might take the side of the alliance.
So overall im more then pleased with what i have seen and cant wait to have a testserver with mobs and other players .
BETA PLZ !!!
