I'm creating this topic to try and gather people from tl.net to create a guild(s) for World Of Warcraft. I'm pretty sure everyone here has known of WoW for sometime but I'll give a brief overview for all the posters who've been living under a rock for the last 6 months.
-- World of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online role playing game ( mmorpg for all you abbreviaton junkies ). The basic goal for almost any mmorpg, along with WoW, is to level a character in a massively huge world while interacting with thousands of players across the globe. WoW is based on the wacraft franchise if you haven't already guessed :o.
Here's a link for the complete story line:

For the basics of the game visit here :

For classes visit here:

For Proffesion information vist here:

Here's some screenshots from WoW:

Now that you understand the basics behind the game you can make up your mind if you'll A ) play or B ) Won't. For all the people that do decide to invest some precious time into this wonderful game I'd suggest you post if you'd like to create and join a tl.net guild. This guild would also be on the PvP server, therefore you have to tell me whether your alliance or horde.
--- Beta comes out in about 4-5 days, so give it whirl and throw some feedback down for the others in this topic.
I myself would be joining the alliance guild. I'll be going Dwarven Warrior with Mining and Blacksmithing as my main proffesions, or in simpler terms Gimli. ~~

i thought the beta had been out for a long time?
|
I've been playing the closed beta. It is a very fun, addictive and well-made game. Hopefully the Honor point system wont mess up pvp. I will definitely play the game when it comes out. I will join a guild consisting of friends.
I was a hulking, hairy chested drawf warrior with herbalism and alchemy as profession.
Why must the servers be down? WHHHYYYY?
|
so the open beta is coming out soon?
|
It should be open on Monday night or Tuesday (in the USA). They shutdown the closed beta servers today to expand their capabilities for the stress test and open beta (early next week).

Well the idea is really cool, but wasn't WoW going to be local server based? (US residents can only join US servers, same for Europe and Asia). And TL has many members residing from many countries. I hope I'm wrong about this but I did read it in another thread 
Or is this beta going to be international? So that everyone can join any server?

I don't know whether they will block foriegn IPs from accessing the game servers (I doubt it), but the open beta is intended for North American users. There is a closed beta ongoing in Europe (and one soon to come for Asia).
I can add that I have a rl friend that was playing the USA closed beta from Australia, so I doubt they will block IPs in the upcoming open beta.
The tough part with organizing a clan this way is deciding Horde or Alliance, pvp or pve, and west, central or east server. And convincing them they want to join a guild with someone they never met 
|
Im gonna play on US servers if they allow people from europe too but im already in a beta guild which is going to be recreated on retail.
|
The US closed beta ended yesterday, next is the stress test and maybe the open beta, but retail is very close in the US. So forming guilds for "beta" is silly since it won't be around for more than a month.
|
i'm playing the european closed beta, i dont play too much because we are 4 people sharing the same cd-key, but the game is really cool i'm really enjoying it despite normally i dont like MMORPG
|
saw the european beta on giga.tv in germany a couple of days ago. really nice impressions. like the characterdesign.
|
I will be starting a guild with some guys from work as well, and am always interested in playing with people from TL.net !
|
They will be banning all non north american ips that play on the north american servers, this is probally my and everyone elses biggest per peeve with WoW.
|
its gonna have korean language on WoW I heard. english and korean language. lot of koreans waitin for WoW too
|
I can't wait for this to come out. I want to make a dwarf warrior :D dwarves own.

are you sure they will be?
i didnt get into close NA beta, but got into the european one, and my bro has been playing it everday and it's absolutely fine. Despite me not living in europe of course :D
|
Im trying to get someone to from the US to sign me up for stress / open beta so i can play. If someone can get that done for me im gonna be playing. Alliance or Horde doesnt really matter to me, im gonna be either human or undead rouge. Talent points in herbalisem and coocking i guess.
