Seems to me that blizzard is trying to replace the undead.

I can only guess it's binary code which is running on the servers and is pretty much impossible to track down...  but it's not exactly an area I'd know about anyways.

Except that server downtime and large-scale rollbacks are a bad thing in MMOs.  The whole persistant-world thing gets screwed over when you apply a patch that's retroactive.  The last patch was, to my understanding, an attempt to fix the problem without having to resort to such drastic measures, and it didn't work out.

maybe they're just busy laughing their asses off.

I know I am.

Funny this should pop up. With the holidays coming up, and a bit of money flowing into my accounts these days I've been thinking about getting WoW...

I think I'll put everything off until I build my new computer completely though. Otherwise I'll never get it running...

[phreak]

so would eve have something comparable?

Yeah, it's been a pretty bad semester with workload. Good to be able to spend some time back around here, though.

Well maybe they just need to introduce an item in the patch that cures the plague.  That way people can actually go around and heal people.

Give the community the tools and a quest or reward of some kind to go and heal people up.

Except that the plague spread precisely because of the ******* factor.  While allowing people to "cure" it (my understanding is actually that they can do so already, albeit on a temporary and limited scale) may help, it won't solve the problem as people will continue to be ****s about it.

People would probably farm it, though.   Like get a plague bearing pet, infect, and then charge to heal.

Wouldn't it really suck for newbies? From some of the things I've read on Blizzard's WoW forum, some higher level players, who can survive the disease, infect their pets. They then dismiss the pet, so the disease counter is frozen (at max), and then go to an area with loads of people, and recalls their pet, which then kills everyone nearby.

Sounds like a really good description of me Read my signature

I have been playing WoW for quite a time and it is becoming more and more boring

Then just have the non-ass**** players report it, then ban the ****ers doin' it.

No dicking around. If people want to be *******s, they get whats coming.

I've yet to see this on my server, oddly enough.

Not that it would matter. As a Paladin, along with cockroaches and KrispyKreme, I'll be one of the last living things on the Earth. Invulnerability FTW!

Well... people _are_ making a bigger deal out of it than it is. Only morons die from this stuff. And the plague isn't something you can farm; ZG is harder than MC is(in the group I was in for ZG, was half of the raid we had from MC after we killed mag, kept wiping on the first ZG boss). On my server, the only guilds that have beaten ZG are the ones that have all members in epic equipment already.


I don't know how you play a paladin... boring as hell, no dps... can't stop people from running away from you... all you have are those shields.

Eh? He's pretty much right. Hammer of Wrath is a joke. I don't know what all this 20% percent bull**** is... I should get an ability that's just like "smite" for priests. It'd be like Exorcism, but for animals and bad men.

Oh, and playing as a Ret Paladin is like having christmas everytime one of my SoC procs and Crits line up to deal 1.3k damage. It's actually fun if you look at it that way.

Although it would be like cristmas to paladins it would render them too powerful. 20% is o.k. in case you fight rogues

[Knight Templar]

Too powerful?

Oh yeah... Nerf Pallies!
