World of Warcraft 2.05 UK Patch  by Craig D at 09:47

PC
World of Warcraft Blizzard have issued a tiny new World of Warcraft patch today, it's just less than 3mb and the changes are listed below. This is of course the UK version of the patch and is incremental from version 2.0.3.

Changes in v2.0.5:
------------------

- Increased the maximum number of realms that can be listed in the Realm List.
- Updated the Terms of Use.
- Created an option to disable UI Acceleration for users of select video cards experiencing graphical corruption of the User Interface. To utilize this option, enter the following line to the Config.wtf file, located in the WTF subfolder of the game:

Set UIFaster "x"

Where x equals:

0 - This turns off all UI acceleration
1 - For Internal Use Only - DO NOT USE!
2 - Enables partial UI acceleration only.
3 - Enables all UI acceleration.

Example:

Set UIFaster "2"

Note: For users experiencing graphical corruption of the User Interface, it is recommended to try option 2 in order to correct the problem. If this does not solve the issue, then use option 0 to disable all UI Accleration.

Changes in v2.0.4:
------------------

- Fixed a bug where flags in Arathi Basin could be captured at extremely long distances.
- Fixed a bug where players who had set dungeons to Heroic difficulty level previous to patch 2.0.3 could no longer enter instances.
- Fixed a bug that was causing multiple LUA errors in the German and French battlegrounds.

Well the US 2.03 patch was a ****ing shambles. Loads of things were broken, most importantly targeting. They actually then messed up the original 2.04 patch and had to roll that back and do a new one.

Most of the bugs seem to be fixed now apart from the hunters feign death which still doesn't work properly.

Last night was a nightmare with the release of BC. The outland servers just couldn't cope. They were up and down like YoYos. Myself and some friends explorer the high level parts of outlands for 45 mins because there were no mobs or npcs. It really was a ****ing joke.
