Gen Con Reveals New World Of Warcraft Details

Posted by simoniker on from the shatner-and-blizzard-all-at-once dept.

Thanks to RPGDot for pointing to a Battle.net forum post revealing a wealth of new detail regarding Blizzard's upcoming PC MMO title World Of Warcraft. WoW Stratics also has screenshots and brief comments on Blizzard's showing at Gen Con in Los Angeles, including comments that "Blizzard has one thing completely, undeniably wrong: they simply don't know the definition of 'alpha'. Both Anarchy Online and WWII Online were less polished and complete three months after release than WoW is right now." WoW is due out later in 2004, with a closed Beta early next year, and PlanetWarcraft also has some hands-on impressions.

    First they silenced the trolls, and I didnt complain because I wasnt a troll - who needs that crap anyway.
    Then they silenced the Mac users and I didnt complain because I wasnt a Mac user - fucking faggots
    Then they silenced the Windows users and I actually cheered about this one - fucking lamers
    Then they silenced the OS2 users, but no one even noticed
    Then they silenced the RedHat users because they are corporate sellouts anyway and only newbie wankers use redhat
    Then they came to silence me, and I realised I was the only one left (I run freeBSD :)
