WoW Classic: Patch 1.13.0-Build 28211
Nachdem die Mitarbeiter von Blizzard Entertainment gestern Abend bereits einen umfangreichen Artikel mit einer Vielzahl von zuvor nicht bekannt gewesenen Informationen zu der Anfang November von allen Besitzern eines Tickets für die Blizzcon 2018 spielbaren Demo von Classic World of Warcraft veröffentlichten, haben sie in der vergangenen Nacht nun überraschenderweise auch noch die für diese Testphase benötigten Daten auf den Download-Server aufgespielt, der vom Battle.Net Launcher zum Herunterladen und Installieren von Inhalten verwendet wird. Dadurch konnten die Data Miner diese eingeschränkte Spielversion von Classic WoW schon jetzt herunterladen und einen etwas genaueren Blick auf die Daten für diese Testphase werfen.
Auch wenn die meisten Inhalte der Demo schon durch die Ankündigung des Entwicklerteams bekannt waren, so konnten die Data Miner durch ihre Arbeit aber zumindest die Aussagen von Blizzard Entertainment bestätigten und einige kleinere Brocken neuer Informationen erhalten. Den Funden der Data Miner zufolge besitzt diese Testphase zumindest im Moment noch immer ein für alle Spieler geltendes Zeitlimit, welches je nach Andrang und Verlauf der Testphase allerdings auch nur für das eigentliche Wochenende der Blizzcon gelten könnte. Zusätzlich dazu beinhaltet diese Version von Classic keine neuen Charaktermodelle und keine Unterstützung für DX12 oder 32-Bit Systeme. Wer allerdings einen Breitbildbildschirm besitzt, der sollte von einigen Anpassungen der Entwickler profitieren und fehlerfrei spielen können.
Weitere Informationen zu der bald spielbaren Demo von Classic WoW findet ihr hier.
