WoW Pirate Servers

[PK|Conflict]

Hey, managed to get a server up and running on my comp yesterday, tho seein as so many of you seem to be leavin wow and so many seem to not play cause of costs, maybe we could run a server on our new rig?

[PK|Cerro]

Are you suggesting we run "That game" on our shiny new server? Conflict... don't make me hurt you! :angryfire

No you don't want Blizzard contacting you for running WoW on an illegal server. You can make it private and just keep it between the PK lot, then Blizzard can't find out really. As far as I know it takes a lot of knowledge to run wow servers.

MMm it would only be a matter of time before shards started popping up..., im game, doubt bandwidth would be a great issue for a few peeps etc? Will have a poke round

my mate did download a dogy version of WoW once just to see how it looks ... it came with loads of instruction on how to log in to a pirate server ... we spend like 20 minutes setting up the bloody thing but it worked ! there was loads of ppl playing on it(for free)

it takes alot of knowledge to programme stuff into the wow servers or impliment your own custom crap, tho i was messing around yesterday and i think ive got all the admin commands covered, its frikkin stupid what admins can do tho - admin mages have a perma polymorph spell that turns you into a pig they can also change your character skin etc or class, they can also create spawn points for any monster anywhere ( i made onyxia a murloc and spawned her in the throne room in IF :P ).

Ive only been able to get a 1.5 version server running tho if anyone wants to give 1.8 a try gimme a shout i think its hardware problems with this computer. It would be totally free but yea youd needa hush down incase blizz found out. Bandwidth is abit iffy - its estimate you need 4mb ram 20 Mhz and 0.5K of bandwidth U/D per connection < taken off my guide for this.

The only problem ive found with private servers is the number of bugs that most of the internal game systems seem to have IE - mail and the AH, tho there are client side mods to re-impliment those systems and they seem to work.
Some talents also work differently Blink from mage teleports you in a random direction - fear doesnt work full stop - charge, same as blink - tame is different aswell.

0.5k?

500bps?

[PK|Conflict]

I dunno, its what it says - im thinking 5kbps

[PK|Deep Blue]

From reading the multiplay forums i've heard that its very light on bandwidth
