"...the bugs that remain in Black Temple!"
Okay, you're right, Illidan never said that last part. At least, not that we know of. But he has been the only one hanging out in Black Temple lately, so he is the only one who knows what bugs, exploits, or missing content are what's stopping us from releasing the biggest raid of The Burning Crusade. We need you to come help us narrow down the last remaining stopping points so we can push out a release soon™!
WHEN: Friday night (Nov. 2nd turning into Nov. 3rd) at 2:00am Server Time
WHERE: PTR Realm (Public Testing Realm)
Unfortunately, turnout was too low to sufficiently test today (Oct 27th). We've reset our player test for the date and times listed above to encourage more people to come. We were shocked to find that people who play World of Warcraft must have real lives preventing you from attending something on short notice
If you need to create a character or gear up appropriately, please arrive early or teleport to the raid group in-progress once you're ready. Keep in mind that the only way to tell if content is tuned well and has functional mechanics is to treat it as if you are playing it for real. We ask that anyone other than the supervising staff members attending the event refrain from using GM commands to speed up the run. We may kick you from the raid if you do so anyway. This test run is important to ensuring we can get Black Temple released in a fun but challenging condition, so please help us to help you! We expect the raid to be complete with plenty of time for TrueWoW players to make it to their usual raid slots on the TrueWoW realm.
No matter how much we test in advance, there will likely still be issues at launch. But we want to provide you with new content and if you help us to identify any remaining issues we'll make them our top priority. We plan to release Black Temple on:
Developer Andriuspel has been on a massive updates kick, specifically focused on the TrueWoW realm and Northrend area content. One of the biggest weekly pushes for updates in the last two to three months is scheduled to go live at the next restart on Halloween! Grab some candy, grab some drink, and enjoy the festivities and updates.
Our transfer queue is a bit backed up right now! This is a good thing, because it means we're growing. But this also means estimated transfer times have jumped from around a day, to closer to a week. Not such a good thing... But don't worry; your transfer request has not been lost. We're trying to go through them all and we're a bit short-staffed to do so at the moment. If you have any questions about your own transfer, please send a PM to IronSharona on the TrueWoW Forums.
The Downloads page link is still active, but it was detected as a potential weak point during analysis of our website during and after the recent breach. We have taken it down for maintenance to ensure that as many vulnerabilities in our infrastructure can be removed as possible. In the meantime, please feel free to ask for download links for Addons etc. through the Discord #support channel or the #lobby channel in our IRC Chat page.
