Plenty of people have pre-booked but are considering getting it at midnight if its available - its an exciting event - it's nice to be able to enjoy it as soon as you can, fun to share a new experience with many others that are going to Northrend for the first time

Judging from your comments I'd imagine much of what you do - queuing or otherwise - is done "like a spa"

And where does that comment come from?

I cant believe the amount of people taking time of work etc...shocking

Guys, come on. More personal abuse?

Funny as it all may be, lets try to keep this more on topic. I really hate saying that, but these off-topic comments are just giving rise for more personal abuse. We're all pretty excited coming up to Wrath of the Lich king; some of us, more than others. But that's no excuse for attacking one another, whether we're the former or the latter.

Now, I dont mind off-topicness, I'm guilty of it more than once in this very thread, but any more personal abuse and I'm dishing out some bans. Last warning.

They're probably all L1 Gnomes spamming gold in IF anyway

I was again yesterday at the gamestop in Athlone. Still no confirmation about any CE's and they still don't make Midnight Sale. What a shame, in other countries it's just usual to find in lots of cities Midnight Sale for the lunch. But that's Ireland :mad:

Here you somebody who already got the CE:

Well I personally don't plan on picking up a copy at midnight, but I thought id inform others of the possibility. I would call it a reliable source

I find it incredable that in this day and age that Blizz cant allow digital downloads upon launch its just doesnt make sense.

Well i didnt order mine quick enough and it looks play.com dont have any available so im gonna have to try PC World,Harvey Normans,Tesco,HMV,Game and the other game shop in town on launch day. I just forgot there was a game shop in town they must have it on launch day in dundalk btw. Dam theres of places just if they will have it on the day is the question.

Whats the story with offgames? you can buy a CD key there? is that legal? will my account get banned etc?

Is anyone else not feeling as "excited" as when TBC launched? im sure that will change on the day:)

imagine the bandwidth they would need for god knows how many millions of people downloading what 5gb or so? teh intarwebz would implode ! Yes, yeah i know pre-staged download and all that.

But im seriously thinking of driving to belfast on wednesday evening to pick it up if i cant find any shop doing it in dublin.

DRakE

Anyone know whether Xtravision will be selling the expansion?

I have a voucher for Xtravision burning a hole in my wallet so it'd be nice to get it there if possible.

They generally dont stock the new pc games they tend to go for console games more but who knows, they might stock em, they do stock older pc games. (at least in carlow)

dont think they sell pc games, or maybe they do since i bought TBC in thee for 4.99

Woden

I see the torrent of it is up and about. You could combine that with offgamers and get cracking.

Thanks for that info lads, I remember seeing pc games there alright but it's always the older stuff. Cheers.

Im on it! lol

The Torrent is very slow after a lot of searching i found a rapidshare link and got it downloaded at max speed. Not installed it yet but no viruses yet any other dodgy crap seems legit. Backing up my Wow folder first. Heck it it doesnt work out ill get it in a shop on the day but just wanted it ready for launch. And to to think 3 weeks ago i had quit wow and im back like an addict again looking for a fix:(

Its still a real shame that the Biggest MMO game and Company couldnt have done a better a job of making it available as a download for launch. But i guess thats just the way it is.

Im sure that would be against the boards rules?

Real afaik. Downloading it myself at the moment to have the option.

With regards to linking it. I'm not sure wrt the legality of it e.g the patchs are all available on torrent but I'm not sure about the full client. Its arounds the usual places anyway.

Were in Belfast??? Dunno of any midnight openings apart from tesco, which am a bit sceptical about. Game in Lisburn aren't launching it at the usual 9am but ............. 7am Wonderin if HMV would be doin it in Belfast?? It's out on the street, beside Game Lisburn HMV in the Mall so couldnt see it ever doin midnight launch :P just one of the Game stores but..7am

Gummy Panda

DAMN YOU WOW ADDICTS!!

I'm reinstalling now and gonna patch up.

I though i could quit... My name is Gummy and I'm a wow addict.

KilOit

Hmmm i never pre ordered this, whats the chance of heading to the shops in the morning and not being able to get it?

slyph

Game on eglington street Galway have confirmed to me a midnight opening for those interested, although they were pretty adamanent about having to preorder a copy to gurantee yourself one.

Jayage

Right gamestop on henry street is doin a midnight opening of WOTLK
i know since my mate is workin the midnight shift

i also know that there might be a few copies of the collectors edition goin that way too But you need to pre order it i believe to have a chance in grabbin one!!

Well from the official site Cork is the only place in Ireland that is doing a midnight sale.

Plenty of SE in Carlow, same as there was the last expansion. I don't see a problem with getting a SE, but is it really worth the extra 40 - 45 euro?

Ingame pet and a book of art??? Pfft... A waste if you ask me.
