Can anyone tell me where the key is supposed to be input?

Is it just for the installer or do you enter it in "accout password" on the in-game title screen?

You enter it when you create your account at the WorldofWarcraft web page.
 
Ok you can get the file off of fileplanet again now. Estimated time, 6 hours 45 mins =/

EDIT: Scratch that, the servers keep going down.

People actually pay for this shit? Unbelievable.
 
peopel that, you know, actually have keys, shouldn't be allowed to complain... it just increases my urge to kill something -_-
 
Hey now, that goddamn fileplanet almost got me killed when I took on 4 quillboars at once. Thank goodness for berserker, or else fileplanet would have got it's way.
 
Man, I just got back from playing, had to stop because need to get up early tomorrow. This game fucking ROCKS!!!


I took a mage-Gnome and was just questing, looking at the surroundings and such. Ping 260 from Europe, quite well I suppose. For the record, I didn't get that second account. And I downloaded the game like a week ago, before the final stress test. I had it installed on my computer so it only needed an account.

Need to get some rest now, toodles
 
For all those who did not get a key, here's some hope: Fileplanet only had 5% of the keys, Blizzard has the rest. They just haven't started giving them out so they don't flood their servers.
 
Im not worrying about getting a key or downloading it probably, ill just stick with R&C and Halo 2 for the next 2 weeks. See ya guys on the 23rd!
 
Is there any reason to bother installing it until the wow site comes back up? Can we enter the key in game or do we have to go to wow?

just keep checking back, i posted that right after i got my key so they must be releasing a little bit at a time.

Does the message on the front page change, or are we supposed to keep entering codes and hoping? hah

No point really. Can watch the kickass intro I guess. You gotta create an account at worldofwarcraft.com before you can play.


Just saw this on the WoW forums:

The World of Warcraft test servers will be brought down over the next 24 hours to apply a hot fix. This hot fix will address some issues with the latest patch. Here are a few things that will be included:

- Players will no longer receive a durability penalty for PvP deaths. If you get killed by another player, you will not take durability damage on resurrection.

- The bug that was blocking players from accepting the Warlock’s Felhunter quest will be fixed.

- The bug that blocked Warriors from learning Intercept Level 1 will be fixed.

- The Growl skill was not showing up for Druids who have the Bear Form or Dire Bear Form ability. This will be fixed.

- Paladin skill trainers will be having an Open Beta sale. All skills will be available for 99% off their original price.
 
I've been getting fucked over by fileplanet for the past... oh... 4 hours. If anyone feels like it feel free to get me a key and pm me... just out of sheer pity perhaps? =\
 
Yay, I forgot CRC errors happen when downloading/unzipping large files. It's working better now that I unzipped the individual files.
 
You can create an account on blizzards WOW site now

the link for the downloader after egistering isnt working for me though

Edit:

I just tried again and it shows the site as still being down. Even though I just registered and created an account through it. It should be up soon enough then. I hope my account was actually created.
 
by create an account you mean use a key or get a key or what? the wow site has been down for me since this whole thing started.

They are done. Don't worry dude, no one can even create an account anymore today.

and I'm long since past 'worried' and well into 'pissed off' because I only have this week to play it and tonight was my most free night.

Yeah. I got that signup.worldofwarcraft.com to load, but the security image won't load so... :x
