** Official World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Thread**

Don't do it. I did it today setting things up last night and I'm ill........very ill and still working right now........Iru Bru is my constant companion.

I probably wont, as much as I want to. I might stay up till just after it goes live though. I've survived on 5 hours sleep before.
 
Why? The game technically doesn't launch until 25th September, and that's tomorrow. If your game doesn't arrive tomorrow, THEN you can be disappointed.

In the UK the game is released today. If he were in mainland Europe you could argue that point, but he isn't, and OCUK isn't either :p.

This is the reason I just paid a bit more and got it straight from Blizzard, cba relying on RM/whoever delivering/dispatching on time for release.

Oh, and I've took tomorrow off work (not really so I can play through the day, but because I know I'll end up playing until I would have had to go to work at 7:30 otherwise :p), and don't work Wednesdays, so gonna be playing a lot over the next couple of days :D.

I have the day off tomorrow too and I think I'm coming down with the flu or something. Never really wished for the flu before but..........
 
It's common practice for people to stay up for the launch and play through the night so pre-ordering should mean you have it for when it is released...not twelve hours after. I've always pre-ordered from another online retailer and had it in my hand the day before and so I had faith that OcUK would do the same thing. Personally, I had planned to fire it up very early in the morning tomorrow but I can't do that now and, depending upon the courier, I might not even get it until Wednesday.

It's not really a big deal, but if a retailer can't get you the game in time for its actual release they should at least say when it'll be shipped on the blurb so you know.

It may be common practice, but I still don't see why you're so upset with OcUK. The game OFFICIALLY launches on 25th. OK, so because we're ahead on the timezone compared to the US, we're getting it an hour before midnight.

OcUK are bound by their contractual agreements. If you want to be upset with someone, be upset with Blizzard. They're the ones enforcing it. OcUK promised you'd get it on the official release date, and that's tomorrow, not today. If you wanted to guarantee you could play it tonight, you should have bought the digital copy direct from Blizzard. That's the only way you guarantee it.

And that's the only way you can guarantee it. Get it from the source.

Personally I don't see the fuss. You're missing a potential maximum of about 18 hours, 8 of which are sleep hours. Honestly. It's as bad as these people who queue up for the latest fruit based product because they 'just have to have it IMMEDIATELY'. It'll still be there tomorrow. You can still play it then. So you miss the launch. Whoopeedoo.

I'll be logging off at 11 and going to bed. Chances are the servers will all crash anyway so you won't get to play much :p
 
my server atm :D

If i purchase MoP now off Blizzard website will it include everything i need to play in the install? My account already has vanilla - cata keys attached to it.

If your server is up now, then it's staying up since they are activating the expansion differently this time.

As long as you're on Patch 5.0.5 you have everything you need.
 
that was quite interesting, about the storyline, all this for the horde screaming **** though is just annoying
 
I was going to avoid this for a couple of months but I'm slowly getting sucked into the bloody hype lol.
