Cataclysm

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

Fawk Squawt? lol.

Or you guys could come up with some names, too. Haha.

Re: Cataclysm

I always thought Notorious Monsters would be a neat guild name for Horde.

Re: Cataclysm

Hey, I kinda like it. It's FFXIish without being too obviously FFXI.

So are we going to try to be a raiding guild? Or more of a casual? I think we could maybe end up with enough for 10mans, for sure, and I'm sure we can always run heroics at any given time. Do we have anyone capable of leading raids? I'm still kinda noob so, not me. (Lol) But I'd love to raid if we can, that'd be awesome.

Just wondering. If we're not really going to raid I may not xfer my main, instead just transfer my DK and fuck around getting her to 80 (oops, 85) and running some randoms on weekends or whatever. Cause I do want to raid. Eventually.

Re: Cataclysm

I get my copy tonight!!

I'm pretty excited. I will make a duder and post my IGN once it's done. Can't wait to see you guys online.

Re: Cataclysm

I'm worried all this hullabaloo wont amount to anything.

[Aksannyi]

Re: Cataclysm

So am I, which is why I'm reluctant to transfer. Not that I enjoy two hour queues, but I still like my guild enough to stick around.

I will gladly make an alt and play it (albeit infrequently) but until I know we're going to do something except turn WoW into the DiV chat room, I'm not going to pay $25 to jump. I've already done that and got burned.
