Aggravation

Talk about things like elves and gnomes. (It's cooler than it sounds.)

I agree, Shoruk3n. Not only that, but lag is really bad anywhere you are. The server I'm playing on right now has lag spikes all the time that last sometimes minutes at a time. It doesn't matter where I am, as an entire zone (maybe the entire server) is always affected at once. Also, I ran into a retarded bug where I tried to rez over my body, and then it told me "2 minutes until resurrection" with the "Accept" button grayed out and two mobs were attacking me! I got screenshots of it. It wouldn't let me quit or logout or anything, but eventually (after a few minutes) I was able to exit. When I logged back in, I was alive but had almost no health or mana left.

Oh and thanks for editing the "toon", Wynn. That was very considerate. :D

Even with a gig of ram, I get a solid 5-10 seconds of absolute 0 fps while loading on a first encounter. To me, that is totally unacceptable regardless of what stage of development your game is in.

Yeah, the lag in Hillsbrad is unacceptable. Hopefully the live servers will load as well as the test server does now, when the patch goes live, so it doesn't happen anymore.

That said, I still can't stop myself from wanting to get more HKs....

Honor system really messed up that zone. You shouldn't let the allure of HK's draw you into that hellhole of a zerg.

I did finish all of my quests there (except two high level ones that I need to go back to work on around level 40), but it was a pain turning them into TM every time. You'd think Southshore and TM would be fortified by now. BG's should thin out the zerg there, though, luckily.

To just add to this list, I have to mention that in addition to the last rez issue I brought up, twice since then have I tried to rez by pressing the rez button and then nothing happens. I try to logout, it will count down and then nothing happens. Twice in the last two days WoW has REFUSED to quit in any way, leaving me no choice but to power down my computer manually. It takes over my computer. I still have a cursor (the WoW cursor) but I can't exit the damn program! I can't even get a task window to show up. Nice how you can alt-tab when the game is running but once you tell it to close, you can't. I've never seen a game take more resources to freakin' CLOSE than OPEN. Not many things are as annoying as having to wait 5 minutes to exit a stupid ass game when you're an hour-and-a-half late going to bed.

That same shit happens to me. I usually just hit the exit game option then turn off my monitor and go to bed. Next day when I turn my monitor back on the game is there frozen. This happens more times then it actually closing correctly.

I don't remember it doing this before. I wonder if they broke something in one of the patches.

I close WoW by alt-tabbing then ending the task now. I don't even bother quitting.
