Anyone going to gamestop tonight?

hellocome

Do I need a pre-order if I want to buy it tonight

Anti

To be safe yes. Call into the shop on henry street and prebook for 5€ and be guaranteed a copy at midnight... Thats if there is any left.

Is there any cool place to have a drink nearby? Dont feel like standing outside in the weather for too long Not that i wanna get drunk either

It's Dublin... seriously... :rolleyes:

Of course there is somewhere to have a pint. If you are asking for recommendations, then I don't have any. Where will be open at 12 tonight? Q bar? Reds? 21? they are relatively close.

Just pre-booked in gamestop after I rang and the guy on the phone didn't seem too certain that there'd be any available for people who hadn't pre-booked.
I also rang Game, and the guy there was saying that they'd probably get pre-booked out and it'd be 2-3 days before they'd have more.

Also, in gamestop the girl at the counter said they open at 11, and the game goes on sale. She goes "The DJ has pulled out" And I was like wtf..

So yeah I'd say don't bother going if you don;'t have it pre-booked based on what I was told.

I'm not sure quing up and then paying into a nightclub for oh about 20 minutes before the launch is the best idea. Sure it takes an hour to get a drink in 21s

Berns

Told me openin at 8am and had to wait till then to get my collectors edition

Jason2379

I think I'll head to 21's and might nip out to buy the game

My missus is going in for the midnight launch to Gamestop to pick up her CE copy.
Grand so, saves me having to download it as I already have my key bought from offgamers

nix

I went into game today like a sap thinking it was released, i was so certain it was released today

So ill have to venture in tomorrow and grab it, i doubt it will be soldout. Id say HMV will have a few..... Hopefully

What time do shops open at these days in town ?

Gummy Panda

If you were getting the regular copy, should have bought from gamesnash.ie

Got my copy this morning through the letterbox

Nehaxak

Just to double confirm, Gamestop is open at 11pm tonight and actual game is on sale from midnight, we just rang them here a few minutes ago just to be sure.

They should sell at 11pm (and might if halo 2 release is anything to go by).

The midnight thing is running off paris time. 11.01pm GMT bliz flip the switch and my DK is born.

I'm not sure if it's worth chancing it being bored for an hour. She said the DJ's cancelled so you can all just stand around for an hour, talking about how much you love world of warcraft. Her exact words.

That's so condescending of her though

So my missus just texted me from Gamestop...I quote...

"Nerdarama in here"

haha legend.

I swore i'd never do a midnight launch after halo 2. Dk is in outlands now (doing the beta has some perks).

All i can say is if you're a DK and you see a stormwind guard with a rope, RUN!! :pac:

Berns

Went down to Tesco here to check it out and get started possibly dependin on price. 16 copies well gone within first 10 mins. I came down at 10 past 12 and was nobody about, asked if had it, all gone ......

Have to wait till Gamestop opening in mornin in Belfast Have usual lift work up , but might go earlier :rolleyes:

Same as, well chuffed. Was surprised at the queue outside. Down the length of Arnotts.

Just upgraded my a/c, very smooth, page didn't even take long to load.

Anti

suprisingly large queue at game on dawnson street also. they were very slow to process people through, although im sure the guys in the store were tired at that stage. looked like they were going to be sold out tonight, if not theres only a handful of copies left

they may be holding pre orders, they certainly had 3 CE's left behind the counter that were being held for pre orders, but for people hoping to walk in tomorrow and buy there might be some unhappy punters

Just back and installing now. I was queing for about...1 1/2 hours. My gf is a legend for queing with me even though she has no interest in the game at all :]

There was a kid right behind me with his parents, he was about 10. Looked like eric cartman.

Big nerd fest it was GREAT. Well besides the queing

m5ex9oqjawdg2i

I put a deposit down for two, I better not get some bullcrap excuse tomorrow saying "oh we thought you only wanted one copy" I am not sure how many places in carlow will be selling it. Hmm...

mad queues in dawson st, but it was orderly enough with names taken waiting for the pre-order to be dealt with (Note to "jago", dude he wanted your real name, not your char name:P ).

Got a standard edition, installed it, and questing in howling fyjord till servers went down for restarts

Anti

Logged into roll my dk, and im loving them. Sooooo OP at the moment. I can imagien have a fun time with this

Got the CE myself only 50€ which was a nice supprise/, have no use for the cards, so if someone wants them drop me a pm and ill post them out, same with the sound track cd and book. The behind the sceens dvd is interesting too.

Instant restarts

I lost about 45 seconds of play and was back on, about to hit 71

mayordenis

**** i'm dying to play, and my stupid **** friends birthday is this weekend so it's all work then all party - why is life getting in the way of warcraft? **** sake

Anti

stopped playing DK.... imba fun omg lol. going onto the other 70's/ But 1.5mill xp to 71 sucks balls, i can only imagine what 79/80 is gonna be like 162.9million xp

mayordenis

made like 200k xp in half an hour questing - it'll be pretty quick I reckon.

Anti

just hit 71, on my 3rd run of nexus

mayordenis

gz - how much xp were you getting per run in nexus? approx

Anti

5k per normal mob, 2k per small one. 13k per boss.

mayordenis

13k per boss I like the sound of that

Gummy Panda

I played to 2am then the urge for sleep and breakfast roll in the morning kicked in.

DK is now lv60. Hopefully there is no outlands rush on my server.

lies. Unless they buffed it while I was asleep. Ran it 5 times in a row last night(I already never want to do it again), it's pretty close to 150k xp per run. Second boss drops a nice caster dagger(better than the kara one I dare say).


It's 1.5k per normal mob, 200 per small one, and 5-6k per boss at normal xp at 70.

I just walked into gamestop on lwr liffey street this morning and grabbed a copy,
if anyone is in need of one i think they still have quite a few left there, guy behind
counter said people cancelled their pre-order and went to the midnight opening on henry street instead so they have a few
