World of Warcraft for ALL!!! (sorta)

When you sign up for the Beta Stree Test they send you an email with the link to DL the client.

It IS on fileplanet though....probably just can't get to it without being signed up.

The folders are something like...

Home / Gaming / RPG / Massively Multiplayer / World of Warcraft / Game Clients
 
I never got the email heh, got my key off dsn2k so i dont know how to get the client... does anyone have a direct link to it?

Edit- thanks pockets
 
Dammit when i click the download link on that page it just redirects me to the beta sign up page again...how did everyone else get it?

edit- nevermind, got it to work :D
 
Can you tell me how you were able to download it? I got to the page but when I try to download it, it directs me to the sign up page. Argh!

What i did to get it was copy the link to another, completely different file (in this case the spider-man movie demo) then replaced the number 89532 at the beginning of the link with 144890, and it worked...
 
HOORAY I GOT IN!

Blizzard... I finally forgive you for being a jerk and not letting me into beta. ^_^
 
Oh my god that was the slowest zip to uncompress of all time, followed by a solid 10 minutes to install the mofo. Holy crap, I just noticed the file was 2 gigs!!! No wonder it took so damn long! I was napping while it downloaded, still a fast d/l considering I just got it from normal free Fileplanet.

About to play! :D :D :D


EDIT: .... or not. Crap I misread the email and thought the stress test was live. Hurry up dammit! I hope it starts this weekend, I won't have barely any time to really play during the week. :\
 
Grrr,I got my key,but I get this error everytime I try to download the Client:

It's really starting to piss me off.I've tried 4 of the 5 servers so far.

Wewt,the last one worked. :D
 
Noooooooooooooo!!!! They sent me an email to get in but the page I get directed to has an image where letters and numbers are shown that must be entered into a text block before I can proceed. Thing is, the image is a damn red x and won't load up. Damn them. Damn them to HELL!
 
Okay, that was retarded of them. Didn't realize that I wasn't logged in and that was the reason why the image wouldn't load up. They could have directed me to the login page however. Atleast I'm downloading now. Yay!

Did that to me in Opera - I switched to IE and it worked, try that. If you are using IE already, I dunno.

This happened to me too. I logged out from my account, logged back in and clicked on the link again. It worked then.
 
Now we're all just playing the waiting game. Hopefully the stress test begins soon. I'm hoping that the servers will be stable enough to actually get some good play time in. I know its a stress test and the servers are likely to crash numerous times due to the enormous loads... :(
 
OKay i downloaded but I need DirectX 9c and when i tried to install it I got an error message that said something like "a cabinet file needed for installation cannot be trusted". What the hell is wrong.
 
Anyone have a torrent for the client? I just got my key but can't get thier activex control to work at all (and all the queues are seemingly full)
 
I finally got the activex control to work. I normally use opera or firefox (and have been using opera for the last 5 years exclusively) so it figures I never upgraded IE on this computer.

So, if you are getting a funky error, upgrade to IE6 :P

So now to sit in this huge queue for the next 4 hours. Excitement!

WTF!? I've dled this client twice from fileplanet and winrar just tells me it's corrupted.

WTFWTF!?

it doesnt matter how many times you download the file, winrar will always say that.

try using winzip or the built-in xp extractor.
 
Winrar Gave me an error as well.

DON'T DELETE IT.

Open it with Winzip or Windows built-in.

I had to download it TWICE

Arrrgghhhhh

WTF Now my download stopped... at 87%... the file has been going all day. WHYYYY!!!! ><
 
It took me 24 hours to download the first 33% and the last 3 hours to downlaod the rest. Gotta love fileplanet. So what's the deal now, we have to wait for them to start the servers up?

Took me 2 hours to wait in line and then 2 more to download it.
 
Edit: Woah... nevermind... mine stopped and I wasn't given any error message, but after reading Fixed's post above, I tried hitting F5... and it started going again! w00t
 
I dunno if you can choose in IE, but I know their special download app doesn't even work in firefox, but you can dl without using it. You could always try a non-ie browser?

whats the best non IE browser that i can use now.

il download it now.. ive always been using IE tho.

peace
 
I know people have used firefox. It doesn't show your progress, just your current download rate. If you really need to see how far along you are, it isn't that tough to track down the temp file. Just don't pause your dl. I did that and it wouldn't resume, so I dragged my laptop to work and downloaded the whole thing in 30 min. :P
 
I know people hate IE...but Firefox is buggy with this shit so just use it, or use this...

http://www.avantbrowser.com

It works like IE only it's tiny, and has tabs, popupblocking, better security, etc. As I understand it, it basically uses IE via it's own software...so you get IE functionality without all the bullshit.

Oh, and when you first start it up, there are a SHITLOAD of buttons...no biggy, you can remove all that crap and make it look however you want.
 
It doesn't help him avoid it, it helps him get it to work ;P

I'm sure he figured out a way by now anyway.

So...for those of you PLAYING WoW already...I have a question.

If any of you have ever played Asheron's Call, how does the world in WoW compare to Dereth in size, variety, and ease of travel?

In Dereth, you could pretty much go wherever you wanted assuming the terrain wasn't deadly to touch (IE deep water, lava, etc) and even then you still could if you wanted to. About the only elusive points in the world were very steep mountains as there was no real way to fly. The beauty was that you could run from one land to the next with no loading, no "zones" and a lot to see and do in between.

So can you run anywhere you want in WoW or are there constantly barriers that keep you in an "area".

Hope this question makes sense.
 
me and my friend tried many different mmorpgs but none had the same magic as asherons call. were hoping wow will provide us with the same feeling we had those many years ago running half way across dereth in hope of finding something.
