Season 4... Just old dungeons and new ilvl?
Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?

When will we get the normal login screen? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtcwJWn9MnE instead of this little window?
Does anyone know?
cheers

Ah that's a shame, I thought there was a login screen, but it's not there.
Wah.
Makes sense, but I still prefer WoW's login.
Patcher -> Exe -> Login.We stopped searching for monsters under our beds when we realized that they were inside us.

Why do you need a login screen? >.>
The patcher includes place for login credentials (the same way Rifts does as well as a few other games including DCUO/SoE/CO), so an additional login screen would be superfluous.Last edited by Edge-; 2012-08-28 at 06:27 AM.

It was a great feature, when all we had was the login screen...now that we can get into the game and play, and listen to the music in game though... Originally Posted by Kelesti

Why would anyone have trouble logging via launcher? You need to run it anyway to possibly patch up the game, why not also let it (auto) log you in?

Anyway, if you don't already see where I'm going with this, allow me to spell it out: the only meaningful MMORPG "endgame" -- i.e., something novel to do after the progression process is over -- is that of the sandbox.

Doesn't the log in screen music play at the character select, anyways? Unless I'm mistaken. Originally Posted by Kelesti
