Re: Cataclysm

And oh yeah, did anyone come up with any good guild names? If it wouldn't get us in trouble, I'd say let's call ourselves "Fucksquat" based on yesterday's conversation, but I don't think we can get away with that.

You can't even type that out so the answer to your question would be no. You could do something like "Suckfquat" but I guess that would lessen the impact. Maybe "SquckFuat" ... idk ...

Re: Cataclysm

Update: I did not get up early this morning. But I need to run some errands after work so I'm going to come home, start the download, and then go do my errands.

Re: Cataclysm

Well if I want to move, I need to go to their specific server. -.- Can't choose if I want free. That's gay.

"Kil'jaeden (PvP) -> Nazjatar (PvP)"

So I guess I'll be buying a transfer unless they add more destinations. I was really kinda hoping, too. It only took me a little over an hour tonight, but yeah, by the time I got in, I was so tired I just did my dailies again and logged off. Will be downloading Cata tomorrow too so I'm sure that will take me a nice fun long time, though if I get up early tomorrow morning I could start the download, leave for work, then come home and get in the game.

We shall see.

Re: Cataclysm

They are starting free realm transfers though some of us will be starting from scratch anyway.

Re: Cataclysm

Starting the queue now ... I should have done that the minute I walked in the door, then by the time I was done showering/getting dressed/watching reruns of Whose Line on YouTube/eating Cheez-Its/etc. I'd be able to log right in instead of waiting two hours after the point I realized I wanted to play.

Well, tomorrow is another day, I will have learned my lesson.

Re: Cataclysm

I'm guessing that even though you still get fatigue from trying to fly too far, that because of the speed of flying, you'd be able to beat the fatigue if you were to fly from Darkshore to either of the two islands, which is pretty much the only way for Horde to make their way to the Exodar or Darnassus now without lengthy guard battles and endless death crawls.

I am looking forward to getting paid tomorrow though so I can start progressing.

Re: Cataclysm

Arygos doesn't have a queue time, which is nice. My Worgen Warrior is now level 20, after about 8 hours of playtime. The updated Darkshore is pretty cool, but it lacks a little direction. I suppose they're counting on the player really wanting to know what happens to Auberdine.

Re: Cataclysm

Flying in Azeroth is awesome on PvP servers. Three Words: Engineer Parachute Raid.

You can't fly in in Quel'Thalas though which sucks because my Blood Elf Rogue would love to get onto the rooftops of Silvermoon. You can basically fly everywhere but Silvermoon, Isle on Quel'Danas, Ghostlands and Eversong Woods.

Oh and if you have your Epic Flying Mount you can outspeed the Zeppelins which is hilarious for if you miss one.

Re: Cataclysm

It took me just under two hours to get on tonight, and my other guildmates were also bitching about the queue time. The topic of server loads and the possibility that KJ might come up for free xfer was discussed, to which I said I would go in a second if they gave me a free option to leave. I told the guild I was probably going to leave anyway because of friends on another realm, as much as I liked them and I'd like to stay.

I like the guild group achievement thing, btw. That's cool.

At any rate, probably going to transfer at least Aks this weekend, and depending on funds, my other two. Then again, if they do offer free xfer off of KJ in the next few days, I'm jumping. In the mean time, though, sometime this week I am going to create a toon on Drak just for the hell of it and to dick around if you guys wanna start a guild. Let's not name it Dreams in Vana'diel though, kind of gay to name a guild after the world of another MMO. Just a thought.

Perhaps we should start coming up with names.

Well the near-two hour wait time was worth it, after fucking forever of doing that irritating Shattrath cooking quest for the goblin, I finally got it: [Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Cake]. Fuck yes. Now I can stop porting to Shat every day and flying all over Outland to finish a simple daily.

Found out that, without Cataclysm installed, I can not fly in Azeroth, can not get any xp or make any progress towards 85 (wasn't sure, had the other two expansions installed long before I needed them). Both are a bummer, but I've been fine without both for this long, so what's a few more days? I'll just continue doing my dailies and working toward Loremaster achievements. :D

Though I am really looking forward to working toward higher fishing levels. I enjoy fishing in this game, so it'll be fun to cap that again.

Re: Cataclysm

I'll probably roll an alt on this server. I'm a little worried about what the latency may be though. Thinking of going Blood Elf (I love RPing these guys and I know it's not an RP server but I have a massive soft spot for them), probably Paladin since I have a B Elf paladin on my main server and she's fun to RP. Well she's not as fun as my Rogue to RP but there no fucking way I'm levelling Rogue again unless the server suddenly switched to RP mode.

Re: Cataclysm

Drak'Tharon is a low-medium population server, so queue times are not an issue.

Re: Cataclysm

Well I knew tonight would be busy. That's just a given. I really only want to get on for an hour or so and knock out my dailies anyway, and by the time I do that, it will probably be bedtime anyway. Good thing I didn't have any big plans.

Now Saturday will be another story. I usually get up at 7 and I'm online by about 7:30, which is a time not many people are up playing MMOs. The night owls are going to bed around that time (at least PST, which is 4:30).

Re: Cataclysm

I'm a 8-5er. Takes me about an hour to get home, so I'm getting home and into the game right around the time these PST kids get out of school. Not that switching to an EST server would change anything since I'd be fighting with the crowd of people just getting out of work.

I'm sure it will die off some after people get their toons to 85. But this isn't the first time I've had to wait to get into Kil'Jaeden. And the lag in Dal and Org is so bad some nights I can barely move.

I usualy work from 6-11 PM, but for some reason, they got me working from 12-5 on friday (And thats it). The mos tI have ever waited to get into my realm on the weekend was about 10 mins. I haven't tried it yet though tonight.

Re: Cataclysm

Apparently, they don't know a mouse and keyboard can actually be used with a 360.

They probably think an Xbox is a garage kit where you can program your own Frogger-like games with BASIC. At least many consumers think this way (looking at console sales)
