Oh boy, time to start delving into the sync feature and see how it can be utilized!

[Stickiler]

Fuck yeah! I'm really excited to see where the war campaign ends up. Saurfang hanged for treason when?

[iamthedevil]

That was oddly quick and slightly unsettling because of that.

[Dakhath]

I was expecting Oct 1, pretty surprised they're launching it next week.

How are you surprised? it's on the background downloader and it is not a huge patch.

[Andonais]

It seems quicker because they have kept a lot of content hidden.

[Tyrathius]

Prediction: Sylvanas is expelled from the Horde, Anduin and Saurfang make peace. Nathanos says all is going according to plan and commands the player to assist in ousting Sylvanas.

When Sylvanas becomes a decent, morally upstanding leader.

Exactly 1 month and 1 day after the Classic release, of course this was planned to make us pay for another month. Damn diabolical company.

and who exactly cares ? you have to pay anyway if you want to continue playing your 15 year old version

[Soluna]

Exactly 1 month and 1 day after the Classic release, of course this was planned to make us pay for another month. Damn diabolical company.

Only not really, Classic launched 26th-27th August. 4 days more completes August. Patch comes out 24-25th september. Guess what that plus 4 days makes. Spoiler Alert: It's not 1 month and 1 days. So much for your 'diabolical company'. Not their fault you cannot count. Or perhaps you think it's february? Oh that must be it.

"Now, run this spear through the Warchief's head. Don't worry, this is all part of the grand plan. Trust me"

[Kemsa]

Almost 7 gigs........ not a huge patch.....

ok

Well i predicted i was the 24 just because this week was "extra rep" for the "ARs, but well no new ARs now. So time tos see the "surprises" they encrypted.

oh boy.

[Kyphael]

Sweet! That means 8.3 might come as early as November.

Month: 30 days. Not always? No, but on average, and it's also how Blizzard calculates game time. September 24th will be the 5th Tuesday after Classic release and it released on a Monday. Try to reserve your tone of superiority to yourself the next time.

[threads]

guess we'll find out soon if there's even going to be a 8.3 or not.

[Mic_128]

Nice, but still not resubbing until the aniversary event.

[Lurker1]
