So apparently I got into the Closed Beta for Burning Crusade...
 

Shweettttt!!!!!!

fuck you

give me your key

Whats that

Isn't it the Beta version for the new WoW add-on?

It is the Expansion Pack for World of Warcraft coming out early 2007 I believe(I think it is January).

It has a new continent, 2 new races, lvl cap raised to 70, flying mounts for new continent, new battlegrounds, new instances and some slighty changed, all new spells, talent trees modified and expanded to accomidate new lvl cap and so on.

In other words, its gonna be sweet.

Fuck you Sov, I want to play closed beta!

Hahaha Blood Elf's dance all funny.
I should probably read the TOS when I have free time -.-

lol, no one reads the TOS! NO ONE, you hear me!

sov im on the pvp server as madmardigan so whisper me if you are ever on

Bah will do. I'll trasfer alextra there too.

What level are you at? Wouldn't be surprised if you are 70 already heh.

60.

Work + School. I'm really just exploring atm V_V.

I take it they arent going to let us keep the characters we level are they

Obviously. That would be pretty stupid for them to let everyone in beta have that kind of advantage over everyone else. Especially since the EXP levels in beta right now are much higher than they will be in release. Blizzard has said that in release, leveling from 60-70 will take as long as leveling from 1-60. Currently in beta it isn't that hard to level to 70.

Didn't think so.

SO yeah, exploring only for me. Saving up bunches of screen shots =D

SOme of the new zones are freaking weird.

I dont know I think the exp is going to be the same unless they are going to add a lot more quests or something because without rested exp just doing the quests you get through the zones before you are high enough. Im only 64 but without rested exp I would still be 63 and on my way to nagrand (the 4th zone). Exp seems to work out pretty well right now with almost the right amount of quests. Some people can get a lvl 60 guy in 5 days played time, so Im sure some people can do that with 60-70 as they have in beta.

Like I said, EXP levels in beta right now are not how they will be in the release. This has been said by blues, it's confirmed, the only reason they have it where you can level pretty quickly right now is because otherwise the higher level issues wouldn't arise in beta for weeks and it would take a lot longer of a beta.

A blue said almost exactly that "Leveling from 60-70 will take around the same time as level from 1-60." I'd find the exact post but I'm too lazy.

Are you refering to exp PER level with "EXP levels"? Or the amount of exp that each mob gives you. I've heard about the 1-60 timeframe 50 times just never seen the posts about how exp is different in beta because I tend not to troll the wow forums. Too many whiners that fuck things up for other people.

I'm sure the easiest way for them to do what they want is to just reduce the ammount of exp between levels.

If they raise the amount between each level Im going to cry because there are barely enough quests at the moment to level properly :(. I dont mind grinding a few mobs or doing an instance to hit the ding mark, but I'm not in the mood do grind mobs for an extra couple hours because I run out of quests.

Outland for some reason seems a bit small to me, given the two years since the original wow came out.

I know they havnt been working on it for that long, but still.

Post SS!

I wanna see this shit man.
