The WoW Archivist explores the secrets of World of Warcraft's past. What did the game look like years ago? What secrets does the game still hold? If you enjoyed Patches of Yesteryear, you're going to love this.

Last week, we took a break from patch notes to tackle a reader request: The Gates of Ahn'Qiraj. This week, it's back to patch notes, and we'll be looking at beta patch 0.11 from September 2004. The beta started to wind down at this point, but the game still wasn't quite feature complete -- even with the launch of the game only a month out.

Some highlights from this patch include:

• Revamped model system
• The addition of loot options that brought the group looting system mostly in line with what we have today
• Undead players' ability to speak Common revoked, given Gutterspeak

Onward!
