** Official WoW Catalysm Alpha/Beta Thread **

anyone got a good download link for the full eu 4.0.1 patch? (5.3gig)

would like to get it downloaded asap without using the **** blizzard downloader.
 
I wouldn't worry too much about using their slow P2P service.

The servers aren't going to be up until 3 in the afternoon.

It's been taking a good half an hour so far to install the patch on my end and that's up to 54%. Mighty update!
 
Just loaded the game up and had a look about the options menu. They've changed it and made it more akin to other PC games.

You can set 4xAF now instead of having to adjust the slider to different qualities.

OooOOOooo Experimental DX11 Support by adding the console string "-d3d11".

Downloaded the patch before hand (~5.19gb) then had an extra 29mb odd to download. Updaters on 29% at the moment. Looking forward!
 
Being banned from the PTR is far more annoying than not benig in the beta. It means that on Wednesday I have about an hour to relearn my class before we raid. Awesome.

Thankfully knowing Blizzard the realms will be down until 10pm anyway and then there will be a 20 minute queue to even get on. Go go Frostmane!

I dread to think what it'll be like on Frostmane on Cataclysm release day. Don't risk logging out or there will be a 2 hour queue to get in!

What's your character name there by the way?
 
after the 5.29 it apparently downloads another 100mb then streams 1.5gb more when you play...

Anyone with tickets had access to the blizzcon presale? What exactly are they selling...
 
So in addition to the 4.5gb patch I have downloaded via the background downloader over the past week, I have another 1.2gb to look forward to downloading when I get home tonight?

Edit - just read above post, interesting, though will still suck on my <1mb connection. Roll on 20th when I get 20mb fibre optic.
 
Patch applied and downloading extra patch data.

Hmmm i can't find that 1.2GB additional download in any folders. Going to update the wife's computer while she's at work.

Got the 5.57GB Files so will get that over to the computer.
