How to Play The WoW: Wrath of the Lich King Alpha

[Flamero]

In this tutorial, I will be explaining how to download, install, and connect to a sandbox server for WotLK's Alpha so you can play as a Deathknight. Links have been scanned before hand (not by me, by an MMOwned admin).

 

Step one: Make sure your Regular WoW client is patched to the most current update.

 

Step Two: Goto http://frostmourne-gaming.com/wotlk/cli ... loader.exe for US, http://frostmourne-gaming.com/wotlk/cli ... loader.exe if you're using the EU client,

http://frostmourne-gaming.com/wotlk/cli ... loader.exe for the German client, and

http://frostmourne-gaming.com/wotlk/cli ... loader.exe for the French Client.

 

Step three: Let it download, it's a totally seprate client so you can play retail and/or private servers. The file is 2.44Gb, it took like 6 hours on a 100kbs connection. And then you have a smaller patch, like 100mb or so.

 

Step four: Install. After installion open a web browser.

 

Step Four: Sign up for a private alpha server. (I sugguest wotlk.podzone.neteven though it is down a lot, yet it has no lag. The site is the address for the realmlist, go into your WotLK-F&F-[client type here] folder in Program Files, look for a file named Realmlist.wtf. Open this file and copy wotlk.podzone.net and paste it over the top one. Now it should look like set realmlist wotlk.podzone.net. Now save the file. Run the client and login. You should be able to play as a Deathknight (giant axe on character creation screen) now. Happy exploring!

Why would you want to play WotLK? It's going to ruin WoW just like BC ruined it. Sure, it's "optional" but your ass is going to get kicked up and down the street by everyone who HAS bought it. Everything people worked so hard for in BC will be next to useless. It's another dam cash grab.

Ok, ok, you can have your opinions, but no need to flame that much. And why is swearing showing up now?
