WoW: Cataclysm

[Xero]

Now... who is going to preorder Cataclysm for the 12/7 release? hmmmmmmmm?

I will probably be picking this up as I am a tool like that - any other takers? =)

[Grizzly]

I never even bought the previous 2 expansions, so I don't forsee any WoWing in my future.

[OU8]

still only have BC; so doubt I'd pick up 2 expansions at this point

[Afterthought]

....I'm in.

I'm sure I'll pick it up, this silly game has been a revolving door for me, doh; but I won't have as much time to play as I have in the past.

These are obviously not in stone, but is interesting how they're scaling things down point wise instead of pushing the tree farther down.   This approach dumbs down the strategy part of speccing but that may be better though in that the current trees seem sloppy and unnecessary.  Also interesting is how there are bonuses for what I believe to be going all the way down to the bottom of the tree.

That is good they are condensing the talent trees.

Reading through them makes me want to activate my account again... gah.

I started playing last month in preparation for Cataclysm.  I'll be picking up the Collector's Edition.  I talked to KD today and he is getting it as well. 

What server are you guys on now?  Still on Deathwing?

[Afterthought]

Stormrage or Deathwing, we shouldn't be too hard to find.

Even though I consider it my greatest lifetime achievements for quitting the game. I was talking with my GF's sister and her boyfriend. Might be picking it up when it comes out...we all wanted to start anew and roll worgans.

I primarily play on Stormrage with some occasional appearances on my lock on Deathwing. 

At this point I'm trying to determine who my new main will be since the skillsets are getting switched around, looks like something between shaman and Paladin, but Holy spec for Pallies looks gimped at least at this point in time and Elemental still looks hot as ever for Shaman so I could still heal on my Shaman.

I won't be picking this up. It's just a time suck and there's never enough of us on to make it fun for me.

I've been playing a lot of CS:S, DoD:S, TF2 and L4D2 lately. I'm really enjoying going back to the old games I know and Love. I suck at them, but I have a blast playing. You can find me on the FreeFragNetwork servers, usually. The CS:S community has changes a LOT. Hard to find a decent server with decent people that isn't playing a single map 24/7. And they all always have all talk on. But, I get to frag things so I'm happy. I wish the WarRoom still existed.

Just a quick note in reference to Vanishes post. I too have found myself going back even further. I downloaded NS1 a while back and have been getting back into it in hopes the performance patch for NS2 is right around the corner.

Most of the servers are bots but there are a few that have some really skilled players on them. Look for me in the [BAD] Clan servers if you ever get NS1 again. It can be downloaded via steam just search it. FYI on the friends list if it says "In Mod" I am more then likely playing NS1. Another note...the players that play on these select few servers are highly skilled and die hard NS1 fans so be prepared for a little flack headed your way if you "suck" and there are some on there that just up and "Rage"/"Rage quit".

I've not been playing much of any PC games lately but old school stuff does sound like fun.

I know a few of my family/friends are playing again on Deathwing causing havoc over in "Tauren" Mill so I'll probably be running around there when I get my account back up and running. Erased some WoW backup files a while ago and apparently, those were needed to install some patches so I need to reinstall the whole game. wheeeee =)

This site might be helpful.  I found some pretty speedy links on here when I had a to download all the patches to get me up to date...
