www.gamesiters.com ,What is World of Warcraft?
World of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online role-playing
game (MMORPG). In World of Warcraft, thousands of players will have
the opportunity to adventure together in an enormous, persistent
game world, forming friendships, slaying monsters, and engaging in
epic quests that can span days or weeks.
What is an MMORPG?
MMORPG stands for massively multiplayer online role-playing game. In
an MMORPG, thousands of players exist in the same game world at the
same time. This creates an incredibly rich and active environment in
which interesting things are constantly taking place. MMORPGs
provide thousands of hours of game play, with a nearly infinite
variety of goals to achieve across a vast world covering miles of
land and sea. For World of Warcraft, we will also be adding new
content on a regular basis, thus ensuring that there will always be
new adventures, new locations, new creatures, and new items to
discover.
How will World of Warcraft differ from other MMORPGs?
World of Warcraft will differ from other MMORPGs in many ways.
Players will be able to complete quests and experience the world at
their own pace, whether it be a few hours here and there or entire
weeks at a time. Additionally, our quest system will provide an
enormous variety of captivating quests with story elements, dynamic
events, and flexible reward systems. World of Warcraft will also
feature a faster style of play, with less downtime and an emphasis
on combat and tactics against multiple opponents. We also plan to
incorporate several unique features, which we'll disclose throughout
the course of development.
Will there be a monthly fee to play the game?
Yes. After the end of the free month included with the game, you
will need a subscription in order to continue playing the game. You
have three options, as you will see when you create your account: a
month-to-month package at $14.99 per month, a three-month plan at
$13.99 per month, or a six-month plan at $12.99 per month. Please be
aware that the subscription fees for three-month plan and the
six-month plan must be paid in full.
Why isn't World of Warcraft free?
World of Warcraft will require a fee to play. This fee will be used
to support the costs associated with the high-quality levels of
service, support, and ongoing content creation that we are planning
for World of Warcraft.
Will there be multiple methods of payment besides just credit cards?
Yes, we plan to support a range of payment methods. In the initial
launch regions of North America, Australia, and New Zealand,
customers will be able to pay their subscription fees by major
credit card, PayPal, and pre-paid game cards. Payment methods in
other regions will be announced at a later date.
Note: We are still working with PayPal to allow customers to
subscribe using PayPal accounts. Please keep an eye on the main
World of Warcraft website for any news on this option once it
becomes available.
How will the game be distributed or sold?
Gamers will be able to purchase World of Warcraft at retail outlets,
online sites, or directly from Blizzard Entertainment. However, in
order to play you will need to sign up for a monthly account.
Will World of Warcraft be playable on a Mac and are people currently
testing it on Macs?
Yes, to both. The game will be available on a Mac and there are
people currently playing on Macs.
Will I be able to use my World of Warcraft discs on my Mac and PC?
Yes, the discs will be compatible on both Mac and PC.
Can you alt-tab in and out of the game?
Yes, you can also run the game in a window.
What forms of currency will there be?
Currently there is gold, silver, and copper. And in case you were
wondering, there are a lot of things you can buy with your money,
including training, equipment, profession recipes, profession
components, extra space at your bank, and more. .
