Got back in, i think everyone DC'd because i was able to very quickly get queue down. There's a maintainence 05:00 to 11:00 though.. Yay for waiting 4-5 hours for an hour of play time I don't think it'll stay down for 6 hours. Last time they did a 4 hour maintenance they put the servers up after like 2-3 hours.. I guess this is just their way of forcing me to sleep | ||

During the day I'm stuck in queue for what, 7 hours?(Just yesterday it indeed was 6 and a half hours). At night there are many less people and it's smoother to play. I really dislike how the only time of the day I can play gets cut short by like 5 hours by all the maintenances. Can anyone actually even play during primetime, anyway? I was under the impression that it was just the botters who bypass the automatic afk kick. You only have to move like once every 7 minutes, even if you fail and hit the disconnect there's than a 10 minute queue bypass grace period. As long as you don't do what everyone else is doing and log in at 4-7pm, you're usually fine | ||

Day one: No queue (wut?) but get to iron docks in Tanaan and get the transfer aborted error. Unplayable, log off. Day two: 2 hour queue. Get 30 minutes play time and then maintenance. Go to bed. Now Day three: position in queue at 2000. estimated time in queue at 5 hours. maintenance in 4.5 hours. Looks like im not playing 3 days in a row. Sad thing is there are free transfers from Frostmourne TO Saurfang. Really don't get it. Also can't paid transfer off Saurfang because its bugging out telling me a character is logged in on that account. GGWP Blizzard, great launch. | ||

You have to log out of Battle.net completely for 30 minutes or so. | ||

Macroing your keyboard press a key every 5 min while you are afk is botting. | ||

I was able to eat/drink, use bathroom, even run to shop etc within the grace period (~15 minutes, maybe 20), but you have to be really careful around the peak 1/3'rd of the day if you actually want to play on a realm without low population If you're trying to log in at 4pm and play to midnight, you're just kinda screwed because that's what everybody else is trying to do. The other 16 hours of the day have queues of like 2k instead of 8k | ||

Whenever things do work (admittedly, it doesn't happen that often) I haven't been able to find a single thing wrong with WoD yet. (Though I'm lucky I play a class/specc affected least by pruning, I heard a friend refer to his priest as 'bullshit') | ||

Phasing seemed like a massive issue, but whenever the servers work properly and stuff phases in/out as you approach (instead of walking up to something and going to make a cup of tea while the server decides if it should phase in the new NPC's or not!!!) it doesn't seem very noticeable or much of a problem For the classes/race thing.. We have a lot already. I can understand why they didn't want to add more, but my memories of the expansion launches i took part in (TBC and Cataclysm) involved some attention there from me and a lot of it from other people, it stops 99% of the server population from trying to take the same quest at the same time and it increases the scope of interest (such language, wow) I should be asleep, i'm not asleep. Human bodies suck. My wake to sleep ratio since the night waiting for expansion has been like 6:1 and i'm relatively fine (four times as many hours awake as i usually have per hour of sleep) so +1 for power naps. I need to take shorter ones and experiment with stuff like this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_nap - (napuccino lol) | ||
