hi guys i am new here and i have few questions about WOW first one do you guys play on the WOW pay to play server or you play in a privet server and could you give me the detail about the server i want to play in server thats gonna have a good ping in malaysia

Yeah should play it on the retail server but worth every ringgit you spend. Hey come join us at Frostmourne realm.

Pay to play definitely. Private server ugh..will spoil your impression towards WoW, it last me 1 hour only, just to see how does a class look in high level gear.
The core of the game is the retail server setting, private server just ruin everything, every balancing.

Guys, if i want to start warlords of draenor...

Does that mean I have to spend a huge sum of money to purchase the base game and the 4 expansion packs??

You only need battlechest + MoP + WoD

If I only have the Battlechest, does it have any playerbase? And does purchasing expansion give me 30 days sub?

Rarely seen people still active in old content, i mean raiding old content using old gear. No buying expansion wont earn u 30days sub, that's the pain of US server

Servers other than US will get it :0 ?

TW server doesn't need you to buy those expansion, installer, CD key, you just need to pay the sub. There is malaysian ally guild in TW server. You can look around. Bad thing is TW server speaks chinese, though the guild speaks english.

just buy the digital version it's oni usd 20 + 20 = 40 usd = rm 131 ++ (Source)

i remember last christmas i buy the bundle (starter version + MoP) version which cost usd 15 ++ which includes a 1 month subscription of the game so i tink this applies i the MoP digital version plz kindly check here https://us.battle.net/shop/en/product/game/wow for product detail . Good Luck Have Fun

btw the starter version has all expansion till cataclysm on it so it's like the battle chest but new version but without the MoP version u won't be able to level up to lv 90

I am waiting for those kind of bundle to come too Wish I bought it earlier! But then I think buying the physical one is better because the last time my bro bought SC2 it includes free WoW time.

it's not free wow time it's 15 days trials so basically no use , u wan trial i have it when bought d3 physcical too , but after it expires your still need upgrade

You can try WoW for free up to level 20 for as long as you like. The Starter Edition is available on DVDs at select 7-Elevens and Popular bookstores. You can also download the Starter Edition at https://us.battle.net/account/creation/wow/signup/. The DVD just speeds up your download of the game client (some say by a few hours.)

Battle Chest is now known as World of Warcraft. When you're ready to play on, just get World of Warcraft + World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria + World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor. More at https://us.battle.net/shop/en/product/game/wow.

the starter edition was rm20 right? or was it rm2?

but how do u upgrade from starter to full?

upgrade from your battlenet acc http://sea.battle.net/en/

It is RM2 at 7-Eleven but is free from Popular Bookstores. This DVD has almost the entire 22GB game client. Still need to download some updates but won't take as long. To unlock the expansions, you can upgrade through your Battle.net account.

i tink not all 7-eleven have it tho

Yeah, not all, unfortunately.

well all 7-11 got "photocopy service" posted outside
