So does the patch include the new log in screen or nah?

No, anything remotely content-esque won't be until 4.0.3 at the earliest.

Theres the presale list, not really anything I want badly. Most of it is overpriced too.

Servers are up!

Btw, I'm assuming all of the actual world changes happen in 4.0.3?

3.15GB of 5.19GB - About 3 hours.

I think it lets you choose in-game which monitor you want to display the game on. Pretty nifty, ehh ?

I pre downloaded this patch using the downloader last weekend and had no problems it took around 4 hours for the 5GB to download (as I'd expect with a background patch.

It's a cool area, although empty. And reminds me of the Grizzly Hills a bit.

Haven't played wow in a while, where do I check the damage stats of my spells/weapons etc, I'm sure it used to tell you what damage they did when you rested your mouse pointer on the icon.

d3moliti0n · 13 Oct 2010 at 14:50

Can I just ask, is 5.29GB the full, complete patch? As I just downloaded the three big parts from the net and put them into an 'Updates' folder and the WoW downloader scanned through fine up to about 4.60GB and now it's downloading the rest up to 5.29GB, is this normal?

Adsta · 13 Oct 2010 at 14:52

The blizzcon store is pretty crap. I mean the only thing new is the calanders.....

Shaye87 · 13 Oct 2010 at 14:52

Can you already **BUY** the 310% flying speed in 4.0.1?
