Will you people please shut the hell up about spoofing IP addresses? Read the thread and realize it's not a valid attack vector.

God dammit...

True, the IP alone won't work. But if you tunnel through another PC (e.g. one you have a keylogger on) you can get in to their account without an authenticator. This definately works as I've tested it using my own account. It's a flaw that was brought up on day 1 of the changes, but blizzard have ignored it.

Since this is such an obvious flaw and not something blizzard would miss (I hope). They must have made this change for money reasons, reducing bandwidth usage at the cost of people who use authenticators. There is a way to re-enable it though by altering the registry and preventing wow from saving authenticator info on your system :)

This isn't a money saving scheme since your not actually spending anything to generate the code, nor are you impacting bandwidth in anyway. While your concerns are noted, your account no less secure than it was before, the only change is that you will only be prompted once a week to enter unless you change IP address, from where you'll need to enter your authenticator code.

There are a lot of valid concerns, which our developers are aware about, however we cannot give a direct response to all posts made.

Never the less we are not ignoring any feedback posted, its read and noted.

As for authenticator information, this is managed server side not on your actual system.

Hi,

I don't believe that this information is tracked by the server, the latency you see if determined by what the client says.

Hi,

Depends what graphic card you have already, I'd probably look to installing more RAM in that system if you really want to use it, 512mb isn't much and will leave the game and Windows using HDD space.

Hi,

Interesting information, thank you.

Boneshaman, that is certainly my backup plan XD I just wanted to install from the original DVD.

About the option menu on the launcher, I am not offered any option menu. It is true that on my other versions on the other computers I do have it, but in this computer I am not offered with options or game preferences. Maybe it is because it is still downloading content from the server. I do get the option later on, but only for sound and video.

I just completed the web page for customer support.

Thank you all for your interest on this matter!!

Could be you installed just the German version, normally you can install multiple languages from the installer, so it may have overwritten the English version, running the repair tool may fix this or at least if you still have enGB files present it should at least fix any conflictions.

Hi,

Could you tell me more about your graphic card and drivers please.

You can find the following information by using the DXdiag tool.

1) Click on the Start button, then select the Run option
2) Type dxdiag into the run box
3) You may get a message from the program about your drivers, this is fine just allow it.
4) Once the program has loaded and it has gathered your information locate the tab named Display or Screen
5) Locate the sections marked Name, Manufacturer and Chiptype in the in Device section, then, DDI Version, Version and Date in Drivers.

When you start the game launcher, you can go to Options -> Game Preferences and change the language. Or when the launcher appears in German: Optionen -> Voreinstellungen für Spiel.

Try this to see if it helps.

Hi,

This isn't something technical Support can really help you with, if you feel that your having issues with your DPS, I would suggest you use the rogue class forums and discuss the matter with other rogue players.

In regards to cache, there is nothing stored server side that would impact the results of a third-party add-on, that said such add-ons are not always reliable.

Locate your World of Warcraft installation folder and delete the directories called WTF, and Interface.

Also delete the Cache folder that now holds the WDB folder. Make sure that the game is closed before removing these folders.

Restart the game and test to see if it helps, if not please provide us with more information about your graphic card.

Hi,

Try checking your firewall rules, as installing the PTR may have miss-configured the set rules should you have any.

Hi,

Didn't have any problems connecting when I just tested, What I would try doing first is to power-cycle your router by unplugging the power cable for your modem / router and leave it unplugged for a few minutes then reconnect and try again.

Hi,

For a large part this would be largely down the population difference across the battleground, long wait times are usually attributed to one faction having a greater number of persons queuing up, while the other has fewer persons queueing so they get into more games quickly where is the other side is waiting their turn in the queue.

This unfortunately is not a server issues, but more an issues with the faction differences, and isn't something that can be fixed easy sadly.

Hi,

Unfortuantely this isn't something that Technical Support can offer assistance for, it would be best to post any concerns you have about Battleground queues in the following forum here:

Hi,

Going to lock this, remember that flaming and abuse towards isn't generally accepted on the forums.

If your getting disconnected from the game when alt+tabbing, there is a known issue when you are running the game in Fullscreen and tab out which will disconnect you.

The current work around is to play either Windowed or Windowed (FullScreen) .

If a character is stuck in-game open a ticket with the Game Masters with a character on the same realm would be advised.

Well hello :)
