I would just like to correct this some what deluded point here, WOW is the biggest MMO of all time with 14 million subs, no doubt.
SMB on the NES released 25 years ago sold over 40 million and is still played today which puts WOW, way way down the scale of "the biggest game of all time"

But that takes away from his joy of being a pedant and nit picking at a general statement someone made. Got to love ocuk :p

To continue with the theme of being pedantic and nit picking, allow me to be pedantic and nit pick at your post too :D

A general statement might be something more along the lines of "its one of the biggest games of all time", I would think that "it IS the biggest game of all time" is much more a specific statement than a general one

:p

(of course thats all rather by the by and just the fun of the ocuk forums, I'm sure that we've all been around long enough to know that when it comes to WoW people generally fall into 2 camps, the I hate WoW and will take every opportunity to slate it camp and the any negative comment about WoW must be defended against as if someone has insulted my mother camp. The important thing is its another guild, which can only be a good thing as it gives people on the forums more options, which can only lead to more potential for fun :) )

I've been enjoying WoW a hell of a lot more playing with people on Mumble and such. Dungeons are tons better when you can talk to your tank and healer. :P

If anyone is on Shadowsong drop us a line for random dungeons or whatever. :)

Some tanks are better than others if you know what I mean. Even if their gear item level is only 331 :p

cant wait to get back on this game... how long does WoW take to install ? from original wow right up to cata (patches included)

also can you pay with a debit card? Last time i checked you could only pay with credit card :/

quite honestly it's not quick. 21GB-23GB ish. The installer now installs everything as far as I am aware. The patches used to take a while to download as the speeds weren't the best. I've not had to reinstall in a while as I've just copied and pasted the files around.

Though you can now play while you download. So you downloaded 'x' MB for critical things and then you download as you go a long. Not sure how well it works mind you though.

Well it works with debit card, I use my natwest card. Though the cheapest way is by buying game cards.

you know me though Tomb, I go through phases of WoW hate or love, though only because of the community. Firmly in the love camp playing with the other ocuk guild though!

But this is a good idea too as you say. Horde one is pvp. Ally one is pve. Choices for different players! :)

Its the biggest game of all time for a reason... I personally enjoy making gold more than anything else, made a fortune last few days and thats not off the cata stuff!

I played WoW for a few years since release. I was raiding in a top 50 EU guild in TBC and I got Gladiator in Season 1 arena, so I feel i've experienced pretty much everything the game has to offer.

These are the reasons I quit:

1) Raiding just became another job. I'd get home from work to spend my time raiding instances instead. Got sick of it in the end. I prefer playing games I can put down when I want to now.
2) They split PVE and PVP gear, so you had to spend time collecting both sets. Made getting items from raiding pretty pointless because you couldn't fully utilise them.
3) Raiding lost the epic feel it used to have in the original game. 40 people running Molten Core or Black Wing Lair is probably my most fond memory of the game.
4) PVP was pretty dire, zero game balance at all, and the balance of power just gets thrown about from one patch to the next. Blizzard seemed incapable of balancing classes at all. When I was playing had limited battlegrounds available which just got boring in the end.
5) Arena - what can I say? awful. Probably the thing I hated the most about the game.
6) Became too easy to get things. At some point there was a challenge behind the raids and getting decent kit. But at the end they practically mailed it to you.
7) The number of total morons playing the game got on my nerves.

Anyway, as i've said i've played it to death, so i'm not interested in playing it anymore. Once you see through all the ploys they put into the game to make it last as long as possible it suddenly becomes pointless to play anymore.

On a positive note though, because as I said I played for a long time, I think they did do some things very well.

I genuinely enjoyed levelling up my characters, quests/areas were interesting, and some of the dungeons along the way were fun too. The game is also ver well designed with a very high level of polish.
