As of this morning, a new patch for World of WarCraft has been implemented into the realms. The patch was not a revolutionary one in terms of upgrades to be experienced for the players, nevertheless it still corrected some serious bugs - serious enough to let the servers be down for a total of six hours.
| Patch notes: We have fixed a crash bug that would happen infrequently when teleporting. We have fixed a UI error that could occur in certain zones. |
Supposed to be coming up in the next patch is the honor system in order to continue the game play after reaching level sixthy. For those not familiar with the honor system: In short, the honor system is an implementation to the Player vs Player (PvP) parts of World of WarCraft where one would wish to increase in "honor points" by killing other players on the same realm. This is not an additional level system, but rather works as a ranking for the most honorable individuals of the realm's respective worlds. There is no current decay added to the honor rank, although one would have to keep active to be in the top levels. "Players would typically have to be inactive in PvP for a very long time (months) before they reach zero." - Kalgar, designer of the honor system at Blizzard.
