I wanted to dedicate this day to getting back in WoW after many months, and getting to work on leveling my alts and getting them ready for WoD. Unfortunately, RL had its own plans, giving me a multitude of math-related things that make me want to scream.<\/p>\n
One of these, is figuring out how much my WoW subscriptions are going to be(to get my budget balanced). I got the 6 month plan for both accounts, which saves money in the long run, and the next payment is next month. So I had to get ahold of Blizzard.
\nIt wasn’t fun. They also accidentally canceled my subscriptions by mistake! Thankfully, I was able to get them back online. Due to their failure, they gave me 35 days of freeplay. I also had to pay $2.00 to get my accounts reinstated(don’t know why. I guess it’s an activation fee).<\/p>\n
Now I’m sitting on the Realm Selection screen with my and 7\/8ths of other servers are down. There was a mention about an issue with their authentication servers. So, this could be considered ‘post-maintenance day’. I did manage to get on an hour ago, but had to eat, and got to see the Horde side of the beginning of MoP.
\nWas quite wild to be flying around Org. I feel like I haven’t played in years. Everything’s new, yet also known.<\/p>\n
Mmm… stilllllll waiting. Maybe I should go back to Euro Truck Simulator 2…<\/p>\n
Moving on. As I was getting my accounts back online, I discovered that you can pre-order WoD now(probably could in the past, and I just now noticed it). Lastly, the WoW Launcher will soon be replaced by a Battle.net Launcher, but allows you the option to go on and get it right now. This launcher, is so awesome. It can log you into your account, without going into WoW itself! As soon as WoW pops up, you’re being connected to your character list. It’s that easy.

\nIt costs $50 to get the standard version, and $70 to get the ‘bells and whistles’ version. That’s over $100 for two copies(including tax). But, gotta buy ’em to get into WoD. Usually, EPs are like $40 before release. Why are they tacking on an extra $10? Garrisons? Wish I knew.
\nAlso, when on the “Ohh, you wish to preorder this?” page, there’s a thing that makes me feel a bit.. UGH’y: “Warlords of Draenor is expected to release on or before 12\/20\/14<\/strong>“.
\nWow, four days before Christmas Day? So much for having to wait ’till the 14th to get that info. But, if it does get released on that day, it’ll be a first. It’ll be the longest ever EP of WoW to be announced, developed then released… over a year.<\/p>\n
\nIt also offers as a hub to launch other games made by Blizzard, such as Diablo 3, Hearthstone, and StarCraft.
\nAnd, it gives you news about server maintenance and other login failure news, other people who use the battle.net launcher that you add them as friends, and special ingame events like bonus Valor(seems they’re trying to give people something to do while waiting for WoD, that don’t know how to play other games).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
