WoW Shortages

[Jan 12, 2005, 10:29 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The World of Warcraft Collector's Edition on EBgames.com is now carrying a $149.99 list price, as limited supplies of Blizzard's MMORPG in stores have made the game so scarce that such ~~gouging~~ entrepreneurialism is possible. Thanks Voodoo Extreme.

Ray and I are both halfway through 54. We have played almost everyday. We are troopers and have played through our problems, which is all you can do in MMO's. The days we haven't played is usually because our server crashed and we decided not to bother to log back in, or Ray was crashing every 15min so it wasn't worth the effort. I think Ray has re-installed WoW 3 or 4 times now to try and fix his problems.

The fact that both of you are lvl 53 is a testament to your dedication to the game. I have roughly 4.5 days played on my main character and he sits at 35.

I spend a good deal of time each day helping out guild members and at least 30 minutes of each play session in the Auction House. I currently see lag of 2-10 seconds after 8:00PM EST till 9:30 EST. I also see it on the rare mornings that I get on before work. Apparently the rumor is that some server service is running at that time as the morning lag starts and stops at exactly the same time each morning.

Obviously some servers are having more difficulty than others. I would also say that these are the maxed out servers. As you and Ray have only played on a maxed server you have no way to compare to the experiences those of us on a medium server are having.

I truly hope you consider switching servers when the opportunity arises. One last question, are you on a PvP or PvE server? I think they are going to limit the change to server type...

One more edit - both Halsy and Sixis hit 60 yesterday so you'd have other people to play with
