Patch day

Today is WoW patch day in Europe, a 35 MB patch that adds the PvP honor point system and lots of other stuff. Patchnotes here.

I downloaded the patch not with the Blizzard Bittorrent downloader, but from Fileplanet. Might as well use my subscription with them for something, and that method is a lot faster. They have the UK English patch 1.4 available. If you need the French or German patch, you will need to search for it. The French one I've seen at WoWBelgium.

If you download the patch from somewhere, you just need to copy the downloaded file (wow-1.3.1.4297-to-1.4.0-engb-patch.exe for the UK version) into your WoW directory and start World of Warcraft to automatically install the patch.

I'd tell you to go and enjoy, but statistics tell me that you are most likely to be playing on a PvP player, and I have serious doubts that these will be enjoyable in the forseeable future. Some people will "grind" PvP honor points, which means killing other players, and that will get annoying pretty fast.
