Wakune said:are they still using BT for updates?
whooo...if I ever get this game I fully expect these downloads to actually beat out the PlayOnline updates as the longest fucking game updates I've ever had to sit through (my interweb hates BT with a passion, it seems)
I haven't touched WoW since the beta ended but they were using 100% BT back then...to the point where the Blizzard Downloader and Bittornado where able to continue eachother's progress from the night beforeDr_Cogent said:I don't think it's BT persay, but a similar Peer to Peer technology.
BT works great on my box. The WoW patch util friggin blows. I just go to Filerush.com to get the patch when they have a torrent for it.

Danj said:Yes, but their BT implementation sucks.
There are, but they didn't list them. :lolYann said:No shaman update at all? Weak.

(I think you can guess why)
It's nothing much. A couple nerfs here and there. I think one of them involved the number of times Frost Shock actually procs now.Rockman said:Do you happen to know what those updates are?
Leatherface said:"Need Before Greed and Group Loot options have been improved. The rolling window that appears when an item of the threshold and above is looted now has three buttons: a Need button (the dice), a Greed button (the coin), and a close button. Any players who select Need will get a chance to roll first for the item, with the high roller winning. If no one selects Need, all characters who selected Greed will then roll, with the highest roll winning the item. If everyone closes the window, the item becomes lootable by anyone in the group."
Cool!

Oh God nothing pisses me off more than that excuse. :lolDr_Cogent said:Yeah, but they may have an alt character who could use it.

two problems as I see it. first, people who can't use an item can still select need. second, "everyone items" like cloth could still be selected as need by everyone even if it did limit by use.ZombieSupaStar said:this would really work if they forced people who couldnt use the item with their class to have to select greed

In my groups, if you say you need, you HAVE to equip on the spot

there is only one answer, one blizzard refuses to implement. make a checkbox graph type setup where the leader is able to go down the list and filter stuff. filter out cloth for non-casters. filter plate for non-warriors/pallys, etc. of course all of this only applys to pickup groups, so if you only guild group or raid none of it matters.
and people who roll for alts. fuck you. if you want equipment for your alt play with him. don't farm.
Tritroid said:I don't even put up with that excuse with greens. Especially if you've got a level 60 running through an instance like Deadmines and calls Need on a green that drops because he 'has an alt' and steals it from all the other level 20s there with him.
Sorry that doesn't fly with me.
The Unstoppable Force now has a short duration stun instead of a knockback effect, and the stun will occur less frequently.
Tritroid said:Yeah the new RP PVP server will be up.
Usually I stay clear of RP servers though. There's some wierd shit that takes place on them.
Such as Tram sex.
Ditto. And it's just annoying that it can cancel heal casts.Ramirez said:The Unstoppable Force is such a lame fucking weapon,I swear it proc'd every time someone hit me with it.
