Calax Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 ????????? Yes they take all games back. Problem with WoW is that they won't be able to resell your game because the account you create with the game will be linked to the game you purchased by the serial number of the game. It's a trick they did to make people buy new games. As to Lich King and BC? Well, you'll still have to get the updates for those ANYWAY because the lowe level characters will still have to deal with the newer content (inscription, jewelcrafting etc) from the expansions. Also if you install them right off the bat you save yourself several HOURS of updating. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Purkake Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) ????????? Yes they take all games back. It's their loss, I guess. WoW pimps, take the floor. Edited August 16, 2009 by Purkake
Calax Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Also, if you're gonna come in and troll/curse about something that the thread is about and never post constructivly? Go put your hand in a fire then try typing. Contribute, don't mindlessly scream. I don't think Wallyworld will let you bring back the game, and I'd suggest against it with dial up given that as is, it takes my broadband connection several hours to put in a content patch, for dialup you'll probably spend a day and a half just updating from 1.0 via downloads, and probably 8 hours just going from 3.0-3.2 Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

Purkake Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 56k dial-up is ~7KB/S, according to my calculations it will take about 40h to download a GB of data, assuming maximum speed.
Calax Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 56k dial-up is ~7KB/S, according to my calculations it will take about 40h to download a GB of data, assuming maximum speed. ouch... and your standard content patch runs about about 1 gig... (fortunatly they allow you to start downloading early) But only buying 1.0 and patching up to 3.2? you'd probably save more money from power bills buying BC and Wrath anyway.

Hurlshort Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 You aren't going to be able to return it, Walmart does not take back opened software, it is in their return policy. I believe it is about 1.5 gigs to patch from Wrath of the Lich King. Unfortunately I just checked and you do need to buy the original WoW and the Burning Crusade to play WotLK. You can get the Battlechest, which has the first expansion, for about $40. Then WotLK is another $40. But you might just want to wait, I imagine they'll release another Battle Chest with both expansions eventually. How come you are on dial-up anyways? Unless you are in the country, like me, DSL and cable are just a few bucks more a month.
kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) in the country And I have to have BC? I was planning to buy WotLK anyway, but......crap. Gilneas? Velen? Who? And what about EBay? Anyway, I want to be a blood elf, or whatever those guys are that have Pillar of Fire (best dang power ever). Hey, um, BTW: Isn't Arthas the Lich King? Wait, yeah, from the cool ending of Frozen Throne! Edited August 17, 2009 by kingofsquid
213374U Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) I'd rather eat dog food than play WoW.Dog food isn't that bad, actually. Much better than horse food, that's for sure.

kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 Um....I got on the first link a 16 second Batman Arkham Asylum preview. And ME bes warlock, w00t!
Calax Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 The names he mentioned are server names. *shrugs* You should probably look at WoWwiki for some info on the lore. And yes you have to have BC in order to play Wrath, it's just how it goes. And I've never heard of a "pillar of fire" spell... Combustion Bast wave? sure (mage) but nothing that popped out a pillar... well maybe something from a shaman but *shruggles* Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) In warcraft 3, Frozen Throne, one of the Blood Elf heroes can cast Pillar of Fire, a spell that causes a red circle to appear on the ground and shoot up a massive blast of fire, and even after the spell ends, flames burn the area for a short time. And what was wrong with that link anyway (Purkake's)? Hey can I get a link to WoW wiki? Edited August 17, 2009 by kingofsquid
Aristes Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 I think he might be talking about flamestrike or whatever it's called. Mage spell, but it all sort of swims together after a while. Anyhow, like Calax said, I was talking about Realms. I have folks on Gilneas and Velen. I think I've deleted the rest. Not sure.
kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 FLAMESTRIKE! That's the one, thanks Aristes!
Purkake Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 And what was wrong with that link anyway (Purkake's)? My link works perfectly and is actually pretty awesome. That is if you like dracoliches, lich kings and other generally awesome stuff
kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 Purkake's link is a 16 second Batman Arkham Asylum preview! Least thats wut i got
kingofsquid Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 clicked on link and watched the preview. What does Joker have to do with WoW?
Purkake Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Weird. Go to http://www.gametrailers.com/game/world-of-...-the-wrath/5313 and choose "cinematic intro".
Slowtrain Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 clicked on link and watched the preview. What does Joker have to do with WoW? That Arkham Asylum thing is just a preview. It's supposed to loop right into the main trailer at 16 seconds. I've noticed that sometimes this doesn't work on Gametrailers. Try it a couple more times and it should eventually work. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
