Talk:Patch 3.0.2

Date

Um... what's this about it being on the PTR this month? That doesn't seem at all possible to me- last I heard 2.4 was scheduled "this year on the PTR" - the 3.0 patch isn't going to be nearly ready for months! Webrunner 16:06, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

I think someone is full of wishful thinking that they will have it on the PTR on december 27, 07.   Zurr  T ∙ C 16:08, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

I wonder where the date came from, though.. it's unusually specific for something someone just made up Webrunner 17:57, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Version

Does anyone have any official reference that says that the WoWWotLK patch will be numbered 3.0.0 rather than 3.0.1 (which would be similar to the release schedule for BC)? Kidburla 12:46, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

The version that came on the game discs was 2.0.0 iirc. Kirkburn  talk  contr 15:54, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

According to the Patches article, Patch 2.0.1 "is the patch that comes with the TBC installation CDs/DVD" This would make sense, as it was released more than a month before the actual game, and 2.0.0 would be regarded as an earlier version number than 2.0.1. I think it would be a reasonable assumption that the WoWWotLK patch would be numbered 3.0.1 Kidburla 16:15, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

The official download version is certainly labelled 2.0.0 at least. Kirkburn  talk  contr 19:40, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Patch 2.0.1 was released about 1,5 month before TBC itself. But when you install TBC, you have the 2.0.0 version. Anyway, if you launch 2.0.1 patch installer then, it is written you already have it, and when you launch "2.0.1 to 2.0.3" patch installer, it is installed properly and everything is OK, despite the fact you upgrade WoW from 2.0.0, not 2.0.1.

Beta

Is the beta actually ongoing then from today or is it going to be starting next patch day? RealmS (talk) 10:13, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

It has started, but only alpha testers can get in at the moment. Kirkburn  talk  contr 10:32, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Ok, can't be long until it starts though I guess, as in the public beta. RealmS (talk) 10:38, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Build 8820

Under the patch notes listed, isn't the current level cap now Level 80? Frostworn1822 (talk) 05:56, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Be bold. If you see something wrong, change it. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 07:03, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Pre-Woltk content patch

I did create a new patch with 3.0.0 which was reverted, as people see the 3.0.1 patch number as the pre-Launch content patch.

If this patch is, what it is, then:

• the level cap won't be highered to level 80
• the death knight won't be available.
• northrend won't be available for game-play (as ghostland can't be accessed with vanilla WoW).

Thus i would suggest tearing the 3.0.1 patch page apart in a pre-content patch and a WotLK final patch. Essmene (talk) 15:39, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

We don't have any offical version numbers yet (except what we can see in beta). No need to be hasty. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!•C207,729 contributions and counting) 15:43, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

The offical version number is Patch 3.0.2 so as things stand right now, it looks like we'll be going from 2.4.3 to 3.0.2 to 3.0.1. Isn't Blizz great? --k_d³ 00:21, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

If the pre-content page is up it should also be noted that the ZA bear mount is no longer available. Essmene (talk) 00:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Do we have confirmation on this, or is it still just speculation? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 03:55, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

On the patch itself? http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=9236466265&sid=1 < ---- That's probably where they're hearing it. I hope it comes out soon, I'm sick of my current hair. --Super Bhaal (talk) 09:46, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

3.0.2 is 3.0.1 ?

See FAQ 3.0.1 Frequent Asked Questions Essmene (talk) 19:31, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Yes and no. We'll find out for sure when things get closer to release. /points at his last comment in the previous section. --k_d³ 19:37, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I was wondering if anyone was planning to update this Wiki with the planned 3.02 Class Changes?
