thats nothing, around christmas break, there were servers that I tried to log in and was 900ish in line. I was able to eat dinner, shower, feed the baby and then come back and hopefully try to log in.

With the amount of profit WoW generates...having wait times is inexcusable.

Using the trail version of WoW places you higher in the wait queue.

I'm sure the "trail" version would work for DiP, however, the rest would need to use the trial version *giggle*

Behave Rascal, people have been pk'd for less. *sharpens dagger*

Just wondering.. how solo'able (new word) is WoW... I've played FFXI and it drives me nuts that at the higher levels you need to party to get anywhere.. usually my schdeule is so chaotic that I can never organize things in advance.. and i hate playing with people i don't know.. (i have issues...)

Not very. It can be done, but there's a large amount of gameplay that can only be achieved by working in groups.

In WoW, you'll have instance dungeons that are packed with "elite" monsters. As a result, you have to work in groups in order to down these tougher monsters. If you have a good guild that will work with you, doing these instances can be a lot of fun, but if you don't.... you'll end up having to get into pick-up groups and about 75% of the time, these PUGs are idiots.

But again, it is possible, but you'll be missing out on a lot of things, and that can be frustrating.

Oh, and on a side note, you can probably do video searches and you can see how bad some jerks can be.

LEROOOOOOY JEEEEENKINS!!!!

*Chuckles*

I play solo a lot as well. You can definately play solo in WoW. There are tons of quests and the vast majority of them you can do alone. Also you don't need a group to do things like the battlegrounds.

The only real thing you'll miss out if you only play solo are the instances. These are basically elite dungeons that require many players to complete.

I doubt you'd be playing solo 100% of the time, though, so you'll even get to see these if you choose.

(i have issues...) I've never figured out how to be gracefully humble without appearing weak. Nor have I figured out how to be gracefully passionate without appearing arrogant. In the end, I always seem to be arrogant and weak instead of humbly passionate.
