Bah! I beg you, Blizz. I need 3.3.5 now! ICC is so boring. :(
Chris M Mar 15th 2010 2:19PM
Yes, yes, I know. Doesn't mean I can't vent my general frustration.

Wow... boring already? Okay I'll admit gunship is a bit of a snoozefest, but there is plenty of challenge in many other encounters which challenge your dps (bql, putricide, sindragosa, LK), your tanks (plague wing, blood princes), and your healers (dreamwalker, BQL, fester).
Also I think many of us keep raids fresh by doing it with multiple classes and/or roles. Way different to tank fester than to be ranged dps, for example.

Yes, yes, we know. Doesn't mean we can't vote your useless post down to oblivion.

Oh come on man. Not all of us plow through content at that sort of pace. In fact most of us do. Take your time, read a book, go take a walk in the park. Wow is awesome, but have a life outside of it and chill.

dude, some of us arent 80 yet. (yeah i started to play WoW late - i shoulda joined WoW a long time ago) I cant get more than a level a day. My main is only 77.
I want to get to raid ICC while theres a ton of focus on it, like now. :)

Boring? I guess you have gotten to go a lot :D

I knew I should've made my Chopper this week. Once I go ahead and purchase all those eternals and titansteel cooldowns the patch will be sure to drop.

*Puts off 3.3.3 for at least another week*
*distracts disgruntled wow.com users with puppies*

Arturis Mar 15th 2010 3:14PM
No thanks, I already ate.
Tokkar Mar 15th 2010 3:37PM
The force is strong within me :-)
Seriously, I work as a dog handler. I see puppies all day. No distractions anymore.
KITTENS on the other ha --
*distracted by kittens*

the past has shown that no sign of incoming patch and no patch arent the same things. This is a realatively small patch (sizewise) and we have seen them drop without mention before. Ill keep to my hope its out this week but keep farming incase it isnt view,

I sure do have a lot of marks of honor piling up in my mailbox. I hope this patch comes soon, so I can turn them into honor.
jasonkidd1234 Mar 15th 2010 6:26PM
I really need 3.3.3 to drop =(
I just leveled a shaman, who I intend to use for pvp, but I don't feel like farming honor.
He's got a ton of wsg and AB marks from leveling, and I'm hoping and praying that 3.3.3 comes out this week.

Plz plz let it drop tomorrow! It's my birthday tomorrow so plz plz blizz let it drop tomorrow.
Let me play wow on my 18th birthday instead of going and doing bad things like going to a strip club or smoking cigarettes. I would so rather play wow and the new patch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hangk Mar 15th 2010 11:21PM
If you dare spend your 18th birthday playing WoW instead of going to a strip club, smoking cigarettes, and generally being stupid and exuberant, I will personally find you and kick your ass. :)

I think that was sarcasm....
No? Oh my....

I just hope this week's maintenance fixes whatever they broke during last week's, as there's a whole lot of us in the european forums (and I'm told in the US forums too) that were suddenly unable to log in and despite trying everything Blizzard have suggested, we're still unable to play! The only way anyone's found of being able to connect is using a third party program called Hotspot Shield which redirects your internet connection through this company's server in the US, but that results in some insane lag making the game hard to play.
