Going back to WoW?

griffy · 3 Dec 2009 at 00:12

After a long break from Wow (not played since level 70 in Burning Crusade)
I'm considering re-subbing back to play some WoW! Ok I know it might be a little crazy, but I have a few questions.

1, Do I need to buy the WOTLK expansion to be able to play, once I make my account active again, or can I just play upto Burning Crusade content?

2, My current version of WoW on my machine is 2.4.3 or something, so quite old, how much will I need to download to play again, or is a download a waste of time, as most of the patches are included in WOTLK?

3, Is there an 'Invite a friend back to WoW scheme still active? I have a couple of WoW accounts and it might be good to try before buy!

Sorry It's what I think of everytime WoW is mentioned

Have you not tried other games also or have you got your eyes set on WoW?

Aion is meant to be good, and has quite a big expansion planned for it.

I play lots of FPS games on the PC, and also use my PS3 for games.
I play Warhammer online, which I enjoy, I used to play LOTRO but found it lacking in fun! I've not resubbed for Eve for a couple of months either, trying to decide what to play rather than try and play them all!
I've not tried Aion, but was told its more of a grindfest and doesn't seem to promote any teamplay?

Darkfall looks quite cool!

Any more info about Darkfall?
A grind fest?
Server population ok, or lacking except during peak hours?
Noob friendly? Or am I just going to get ganked every 10 minutes till I log out?
Thanks in advance
