Yahoo! The Wow Battlegrounds Patch Is Here!
<div class="IPBDescription">Let the real games BEGIN!!!</div> *drools*
Theres not much to say. Battlegrounds is only going to get better as time goes on as they add mannable siege weapons amoung other things to the game experience. I've only been able to play the Warsong Gulch (.. was at 43 when I tested everything, I need to be 51+ to get into alterec) and its still a freaking blast. The PvP is so much more fun when you're on TS as well, coordinating attacks, hiding in oversized bushes waiting for the carrier, setting traps.. ahh. Not to mention the multipules of fixes, class changes and other additions made in this patch!
If you've stopped playing World of Warcraft and havent done Battlegrounds yet, I reccommend picking it back up and getting online. This is going to be great!
... *grumbles* I deleted my 45 warrior though and started from scratch. Made an orc warrior because my 45 wasnt fun.. no quest storylines to follow (all his quests were jumbled up and half way done), <b>no tradeskills besides first aid</b> <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> and he wasnt an orc. Go orcys! Now I've got to powerlevel today to 21 just to play the warsong gulch.. which is the level requirement for it. Yay!

21+ for bloodgulch, 51+ for alterac.
You can play either at sixty. The game waits until a certain amount of players on each side with similer levels have signed up to play before putting you in. Here is the list...
1-10 (assuming it will ever have a battlegrounds that low level)
11-20
21-30
31-40
41-50
51-60 (the worst matchup. 51 vs 60 with uber gear = slab of meat)
So you can go to either battlegrounds. The gulch is usually a half an hour long game if its a good game (its a small capture the flag map), and the vally is usually.. hours. Its massive. It has NPCs charging to the front lines, (soon to be implimented siege weapons), mines that you have to clear for your troops to get better equipment, guards in guard towers raining fire down upon you, bases you have to capture one by one to move up, and you collect the blood of fallen players to give to your shaman (horde) or mage (alliance) to summon a massive creature that goes to woop all a** on the enemies side. Yeah, its awesome.
Is the hunter bug. They suck
A whole lot more now
edit: whats up with the haikus?
O/T: Tyco, you're starting to scare me.

He's now known as Taiku btw.
I might have to take another look at WoW if they get those mannable siege weapons in....
between MS/Gunz/FlyFF/PaperMario2 etc etc, I have enough to keep me away <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
but once I am back, gona nuke me some horde!
maybe I should renew my subscription at some point... see if my 60 orc warlock or my 55 tauren druid have been beefed up any <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
My server crashed to the ground
So that kind of sucks
It was the first World Leader kill on our server as well.

I just hit 60 last night - my gnome rogue kicks a lot of ****.
My e-pals and other guildmates raid crossroads everyday - now we'll have a real place ot go to instead of making xraods into a bg
Also, Horde > Alliance. Except in terms of population. Those night elves seem to be everywhere. Maybe it's because they save so much gametime with their wisp form <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
WAHEY!!!
Death to the night elves!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Heh, for some reason that's why I prefer Horde. Only Dwarves have style in the alliance, the night elves starting place sucks, and Darnassus doesn't even have all the trainers. I've made one night elf before quitting when hitting Darkshore, one human (22 Warlock, still play it with some of my ally friends) one dwarf, and none of them actually amazed me.
In horde, Tauren are cool but you walk for sooo long (due to Plainswalking being scrapped) Undead are stylish, and the other two have peon slapping as a quest <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
edit: Also, I've noticed that no matter who I'm playing, Night Elves tend to have a higher concentration of asshats (as well as a higher concentration of players overall), which really turns you off when you play.
Trolls are great fun, and we have cool accents <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
well since there is a trinket out there that counters one of the priest's core ability (AOE fear), and the fact that druids don't have a talent tree thats called "enchantment" I'll just assume you don't know anything about the game and disregard your comment.
Warlocks hopefully will enjoy the enhancements to the demonology tree. more lovin' required IMO.
Paladins are still the anti-fun class and it seems blizzard intends them to stay that way. Thats a fact.
The system blizzard ironicly considers the "honor" system makes the game horrible to play if you're not lvl 60 yet and are trying to get there. Odd considering blizzard intended it to be possible to solo up to 60. That just is obviously not true when it comes to 50+ leveling.
Horde are having a tough time getting into Battleground games... it seems the alliance ran away when they realised BG would mean fair fights. oh noes... no more zerg. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Suicidal mages can and will make runs on Battleground horde entrances though... all in the name of "honor".
If you've managed to move on from this game... don't go back. BG isn't worth it dispite it being great.
