Preparing for WotLK

Kenzi October 7 2008 1:13 pm 8 Comments

There have been a couple of blue posts recently that puts the “WotLK is on the way” feeling in the air. The first one was a blue posted Death Knight Creation FAQ. It’s a lot of what we already know, so most of you will see this a redundant and boring:

Notice the highlighted part? Can’t start over on a new server anymore! This won’t be a huge deal for most, but for those planning on using this opportunity to move over to play with friends might find if a bit frustrating.

There was also a blue posted Updated System Requirements post today, Not a huge difference from the old, but those with questionable machines may want to read over it.

They said it was 10GB for the Burning Crusade; Upon install the truth was revealed. it was totally not 10GBs as I only had like 7GB on my computer at the time (thank god I’ve since upgraded). I think that only applies when you consider the previous expansion and vanilla WoW combined.

And about the 55+ realm only change now, that’s not to bad. Judging by their words it may be changed in the future to “once you have a 55 you can create a DK anywhere”. Makes me kind of glad I wasted time on other realms though, now I can make 4 different DK’s.

troika, um Right now with addons and a few Screen shots my WoW is taking up 9.67Gigs, and without addons or screenshots is still 9.48Gigs. So their requirements will probably incress about 5Gigs per expansion, so now it is 15gigs and probably the next one will require about 20.
