Update - Added November 29 Patch 4.0.3a Hotfixes and a blue post about the 150mb download you get before entering the game.


150mb "Patch" Download

As it's not a patch, if you're extremely eager to get into the game (or it's taking too long) you can actually bypass the launcher and run the wow.exe in your game directory and play normally. You can then continue on downloading it later after you're done playing.

WoW's 6th Anniversary
It's WoW's 6th Anniversary in-game! Don't forget to log on all your characters on November 30th or later to get the achievement! Last year, the WoW's 5th Anniversary was available for 2 weeks before Blizzard deactivated it.

Moonkin Hatchling and Lil' Ragnaros Now Available

Lil' Ragnaros, the Tiniest Firelord

Ragnaros, the dread master of all fire elementals, will return in Cataclysm to avenge his defeat in Molten Core. And what better way to head into battle than with a miniature version of the firelord himself following at your beck and call? Lil' Ragnaros, just like his full-scale namesake, burns with constant fury (not to mention flames that serve as a handy cooking fire) and comes equipped with the legendary hammer Sulfuras. And as a being of pure elemental fire, he has no need to walk from place to place -- he just submerges into the magma below the world's surface when you start walking and reemerges when you stop.

Moonkin Hatchling Charity Pet -- For the Children!

The googly-eyed Moonkin Hatchling, which comes in unique Horde and Alliance versions, will occasionally plant flowers at your feet, and happily /dances with any willing partners. Like last year's Pandaren Monk, the Moonkin Hatchling has a soft spot for helping children. For every Moonkin Hatchling adopted from November 29 through December 31, 2010, Blizzard Entertainment will donate 50% of the $10 purchase price to the Make-A-Wish Foundation®.


Thanks to the support of all the World of Warcraft players out there who purchased the Pandaren Monk last year, we were able to donate more than $1.1 million to Make-A-Wish this past February. We’re looking forward to making another big contribution to this great cause on behalf of the World of Warcraft community following the close of this year’s promotion.

To learn more about the Pet Store, please visit the Pet Store FAQ, and for more information about the Make-A-Wish Foundation® in the U.S. visit www.wish.org and outside the U.S. visit www.worldwish.org.

    Oh look, people complaining yet again about minipets. It's my damn money. If I want to buy a damn minipet, I will....and I did.

    "Lil" Rag = awesome.

    Moonkin = cute. 50% donated to charity = very nice.

    If you cannot afford to buy the minipets, then it's time to beg mommy for more cash eh?

You can totally still get desert from the buffet (Sunflowers and Grubs All New This Week!), but a few fancy ones can be gotten ala carte. Blizzard aren't taking away your crab rangoons, they're still on the buffet, but now you can get a brownie bottom pie for a few extra bucks if you want it.
    Then where's this year's anniversary pet because I'm sure as heck not seeing that on the buffet.

    There are plenty of pets added with the latest world changing patch and there is plenty more with the new expansion. They have not stopped offering pets.. as I can still see new free pets all over the place. So you are wrong. Anniversary doesn't equal new companion pet either, Blizzard have NEVER promised to give one companion pet to every player each year. So please provide proof before you tell lies.

    They are indeed trying to make a lot of money. So is your telephone company, your electric company, your local super market, your local Chinese restaurant, Blizzard.. etc. Please tell me why Blizzard is an exception here. I still haven't heard any reasons at all why Blizzard isn't allowed to function as any other normal company. Yet morons like you keep saying they are greedy

In other news, I'm a sucker and I bought both the Moonkin and the Lil' Ragnaros. I dont care what Blizz does with the money, if they donate it, kuddos, if they pocket it whatever. I bought them because I wanted them, and I liked them. If I had any sort of issues paying for something like this, I would simply not do it. Besides, the cuteness level is extreme, especially on the moonkin. /shrug

    I'm pretty sure I saw a blue post a while back where Blizz stated they would be giving out free pets to more important dates and events down the road. (I guess the 6th anniversary wasn't important to them or something.) Trust me they will give out a free pet when you least expect it and people will forget about the 6th anniversary. That's the way peoples minds work.

    Most free-to-play games don't sell equipment or even currency for real money. I really doubt Blizzard makes a complete turn with this, and decide to go even further than most F2P games.
    ya read the post - it cracks open the door as players will think about switching as it hits the pocket book a bit more. just stating my personal opinion as i would definitely would consider leaving if they continue down this path. paying $15 a month and for the game plus expansions is my threshold on gaming. its different for other people as many are more rabid - good for them. my spending on electronics, women, and booze is probably more than others too but to each his/her own. doesnt make me or you right or wrong.

    but back to the subject - yes, i dont need to buy it to play the game at this time but that line could be crossed very shortly - the celestial mount being a good example. vanity pets are just for achievements and bragging rights. i used the word shady as it seems like blizz is testing the waters as far as how far they can go with these purchased items.

    its called feedback buddy dont get your panties in a wad (referring to all your related posts on this subject). most companies welcome it so they have all the information to make the best decision. and unless you work for blizz, you have no idea what direction they are moving in so your thoughts on the matter carry as much weight as anyone else.

    Fine if that is your threshold for your gaming. Some people are able to spend more money than you. Just because YOU can't afford these pets does NOT mean Blizzard is doing something wrong. However you said it was shady of Blizzard doing this, so you should be prepared for someone to argue against you.

    Selling mounts and companion pets does not alter gameplay for anyone but for yourself. These things does not offer you any advantaged over other players. This is NOT shady.

    You said I have no idea what direction they are going, but you seem to think YOU know that. You are just like any other moron here then.

    If Blizzard decide to shut down their game completely, sell gold to their customers or just sell pets they have ALL the right in the world to do so. They are NOT breaking any laws. They are not doing something wrong. They are NOT breaking any policies. If they decide something which will cost half their player base it is their fault. It's been many years since they started selling additional things (realm transfer, faction change, pets etc) and this is NOWHERE close to selling gold/gears. Blizzard is actually going the opposite way with Cataclysm, making epics harder to get. Blizzard is stating a clear policy on buying gold and why they think it is wrong. So what are YOUR indications that they are going the way you think they are going? Please explain.

    They created that expectation over the last two years by setting that tradition.

    Exception to what? If your phone company, electric company, local supermarket, or local Chinese restaurant suddenly decided to offer less services for the same price and only offered those previously bundled services at an extra cost, you'd have the same reaction. You tell me why Blizzard is apparently the exception here.

    This is a clear cut example of Blizz holding back content so they can sell separately as an extra. It's a dick move. If you're okay with paying the same for less and being taken advantage of, fine, but don't pretend that this is admirable behavior.



    And don't think this doesn't open the door to further game-breaking changes. Pandora's box has already been opened in that regard. There's nowhere to go from here but down. Blizzard will continue to withhold more and more game content until they find out where the breaking point is in their player base.

    You mention laws, morality, and policies. One of those things is not like the others.

    You seem to be under the impression that if it's okay legally, then it's okay morally. That's adorably naive.

    Blizzard is not offering less services for the monthly subscription. You are paying for access to the game. Nothing else. Nada. Nothing. Please tell me where you pay your 15 dollars to get extra pets? You don't. So your comparison is invalid.

    This is a clear cut example of Blizz holding back content so they can sell separately as an extra. It's a dick move. If you're okay with paying the same for less and being taken advantage of, fine, but don't pretend that this is admirable behavior.
    They released 4.0.1 and 4.03 without any charge. That is their BIGGEST patch so far. How on earth is that holding back content? They changed the whole bloody world lol. How are we getting less because they sell two pets in their store? We are getting MORE now than we EVER have. Can you tell me any patch bigger in content than the world-changing patch? Please direct me to that patch.

    And don't think this doesn't open the door to further game-breaking changes. Pandora's box has already been opened in that regard. There's nowhere to go from here but down.

    Yeah cause their last two patches only gave thousands of quests, models and item rewards.. and now you are moaning about two companion pets? Please don't lie. Blizzard is not holding back on anything. If they were holding back on stuff they wouldn't change all the low level zones. If that is holding back then I don't know what you really want from patches.

    It is okay both morally and legally. We have a free economy. If you want communism then move to North Korea where companies are restricted by funny laws. In our part of the world they aren't. If you don't like that then just move.

    4th Question on WoW's general FAQ...

    "Why isn't World of Warcraft free?
    The fee is used to support the costs associated with the high-quality levels of service, support, and ongoing content creation that go into World of Warcraft."

    Good. On my server, which (to my knowledge) is not a high population server, there were many, many people spamming that crap all over Orgrimmar. In the AH, in the Bank, in front of Garrosh's throne room.

    And why? To be obnoxious, because, for those of us that play with sound on, it was quite obnoxious.

    Luckily, folks like me, reported it for griefing and Blizz fixed it so you could no longer do so.

    Perhaps you were one of the few that wasn't using it to bother other people? (Which I doubt.) That sucks, but there's always going to be jerks that ruin some things for the rest of us.

    Let me tell you something, lets use Calene's example agian, if you are unsatisfied with your supermarket, restaurant, instead of bitching you find another. Very simple, if you are so damm angry about not getting your pet (even tho if I may say you are NOT entitled to it), leave this game, go play the super Aion or whatever.

    You see mate, it might been an expectation to get a pet, heck even I hoped for it. But you know what I didn't get it, instead I enjoyed this lovely world shattering we've got for free. Which you wont pay for (In Catac you pay for 80-85 content and proffesions to make it clear to you).

    Yes you get charged for this game, know why? its a monthly subscripion game, if you did get your pet know what? You would still pay, invalid argument.

    Let me ask this, who ever sayd the 6 years Anniversary, is supposted to be the one in the pet shop? It did get released on the same day as we got our achievement, but hey this date the 30th is not the date wow was released, maybe they are not meant to be the 6 years Anniversary. Just saying.

    Content? You got the whole damm shattering, and bitching about the pet (still?). Yes you did not get the pet this year, agian who ever told you that you would? Oh I see no one. Also the content you got last year was the Onyxia redone for content filler, something they did for your cause extra. It is not a tradition to give you a pet, please stop filling everybody up with bullshit. However if you want a pet, go buy one, I wont. And mate if you wont, well no pet really, otherwise go complete PvG (To be honest the most flavourable thing they've given us, for what? FUN, yeah thats right).

    If you didn't get everything you expected, maybe its time to move on. Warhammer Online, Aion awaits! I'm happy as hell for the shattering, and I will enjoy Cataclysm once I buy it (will be later some time after release tho). Blizzard wants money, they give out content which all seem to bitch about, I ask to myself why the hell is there so many active subscribers? Oh thats right, WoW is the best MMORPG, they must do something right. Agian just saying mate.

    Is it okay morally and legaly to not give you the damm pet? Yes, want me to list up all the flavour things we have gotten just this patch? I can do that for you if you like.

    Shortened: You are unhappy about a pet, you bitch about it. So what? If that pet breaks your game and if the shattering is so useless and rubbish for you. Well I'm sorry, I'd guess you have to leave this game, really.

    I'm no Blizzard fan, they do many things wrong, agian I can list up some of the critic mistakes, but I wont listen to useless shit, you deem no right for that pet whatsoever.

    I apoligize for spelling mistakes, english is not my main language.

    Charagon - Frankly, what you seem to be QQing about is that they didn't CALL one of the new, free, ingame pets a "6th anniversary pet" and therefore didn't gift-box it and deliver it to your mailbox. Are you honestly that lazy? They added not one, not two but FOUR new pets in the patch, none of which you have to pay for. And just because one of them isn't labeled "Hi I'm a 6th anniversary pet, you only have to move your lazy fingers two inches to get me from a mailbox, instead of oneshotting your way through a short quest chain or a couple mobs or a doing minigame for me."

    All your adamant requests for a 6th anniversary pet tell me is that you are really, really lazy.

    Nobody, it's just incredibly poor timing on Blizz's part to add two new pets to the store at the exact same time they decided to NOT add a new pet to the game.

    Two consecutive years makes it a tradition.

    That's pretty much the sum of it.

    You know, I never thought of it that way.

    Blizzard is incredibly stupid to not have done that. They could have avoided this entire scenario.




    Here's the long and short of it.

    Blizzard created an expectation for content.
    Blizzard failed to deliver said content.
    Blizzard did so in the worst way possible with the timing of their bull!@#$ petstore pets.

    When companies fail, they get poor feedback. That's exactly what this is.

    I want to get the Moonkin little guy looks so cute but I want Ragnaros too... Can't decide, later I'll probably buy both.
