Official WoW Thread.

yeah... would be kinda silly to force friends to use IM to talk to each other if the decieded to be different races....

WoW does look sweet... I'll probably be a human mage/whatever...... haven't really put much thought into it though.

hmm i never really thought about the translation thing but i do remember the secondary skills in linguistics and stuff. so yeah it must only apply to NPCs.

do all races speak different languages? like dwarves/night elves/humans are all diff??




what sites does everyone get their info from? i really personally love www.worldofwar.net

Being in an orc town being Tauren would be a problem, since well you need to know orcish to be able to buy crap!

Player interaction will be in basic a.k.a English

I believe it will work like how EQ worked. If your playing a Tauren and your talking to your Orc friend everything you said will come out all weirded to him(though you are typing english) till his character learns the other language.

[Irenicuz]

[Spider]

No really they changed it so now that if you group you have a teach option. So you automaticly teach them...which is unlike EQ or WoW where your toon learns the language over time as the other toon keeps talking.

i've pretty much given up on mmorpg games.

i wasted a ton of money on everquest, bought daoc and hated it, and shelled out $20 for sw:g and got bored with it in a month.

and world of warcraft's striking lack of... well... war kinda turns me off.

[diluted]

what about DAOC's war? dont they have realm vs realm battles with like thousands of ppl?

[Robot]

if you replace, "war" with, "random skirmishes" and, "thousands of people" with, "occasionally one hundred which makes the battle horribly, horribly laggy" then, yes.
