I don't think it's only 3 gig's. This a huge patch so it's file size is going to be reflect this.

Here is a screenshot of what to expect for patch size.

Yeah I definitely dont think thats next week. Too big of a patch. They'd never release that so soon. It'd have to be the week before cata, which is the week after Thanksgiving, which is a week before Cata. 11/30 is the date I predict. Makes more sense.

Ooooooh that's so exciting if it really turns out to be so soon! :D

I wonder how much longer the Beta will run for. They must be taking it down somewhat soon with release on the horizon.

I thought so to but Boubouille thinks it will be out next week.

For how long beta will stay up ? I think it will be like Lich King beta from which I heard stayed online till a few days before the release date.

As do I. However doesn't change that I think it's to early. I guess they want to make sure the bugs are worked out before the release day ?

I'm quite sure that's what they're aiming for. It'd be a bit silly not to give it a week at least to fix bugs before the release date itself. :P I'm looking forward to bit faster ghost gryphons.. >.>

One would assume so. But if you look at all the balance issues they had after 4.0 (+ other bugs. The pumpkin one I shall never forget. ), I suppose they can't predict everything. And the gryphon bug for example, existed on beta for months before 4.0 went live. And it didn't even cross my mind that bliz would somehow manage to deploy it on live servers, even after ptr. ._.

Also, the scourge invasion in total, it didn't last much longer than a week or two, didn't it?

That's cause everyones screwing around when they're on the PTR.. i know for certain some live bugs are based on the fact that no one does what is bugged on the PTR. I can't dismount in netherwing ledge.. do you think people went do to the netherwing dailies on the PTR? prolly not.

HOBOY. Here we go. Big patches... Me wrestling for hours with this thing... Helping my guildmates who having trouble. Fun times. =P

What I find funny is the patch that was released today... Which was supposed to be a simple bug fixes one... Ended up causing more bugs. >.< Including that really bad ICC Gunship one.

NEW SIGNATURE PENDING... SOON.

What's wrong with lootship? (euro servers are not up yet..)

Also, I wonder if they're planning to let us fly in Silvermoon and Exodar or not. o.O
