World of
Warcraft Achieves New Milestone with Two Million Paying Subscribers is the
press release announcing a new subscription threshold achieved by Blizzard's
MMORPG, with further breakthroughs expected when the game launches in China:
World of Warcraft recently surpassed the two million mark for paying subscribers. Already the largest MMO in both North America and Europe, Blizzard expects to see even greater growth with the recent commercial launch in China on June 7, 2005. Anticipation for World of Warcraft was already at an all-time high in China, with peak concurrency during the open beta test topping 500,000 players, nearly equal to World of Warcraft's peak concurrency in all three current markets combined. Blizzard expects to see the new mark of two million subscribers shattered quickly with the arrival of players from China in the coming weeks.
pro:
If you leveled a character up to 60, did a few raid instances like Stratholme, Scholomance, BRD, UBRS, Onyxia, and Molten Core... and then tried Battlegrounds (CTF or epic) and after all that think, "eh... WOW sucks" then I give you that, but if you're just posting "WOW sucks" without ever having playing it or playing it long then you don't have anything to say about the game.
Simply put you haven't played it long enough to enjoy it. Doesn't matter what game you play, the newb stuff always sucks! That's how most games are. All the end-game content is what matters most, and unfortunately that'll take anywhere from 2-6 months or more to get to. That's just the way things are.
Kx, you are forgetting how much it cost to make the game, and how much it costs to maintain.

The most exercise some people get is jumping to conclusions.
