ok in my entire life, i hav never playing or watch pll playing the WoW, so u guys wanna explain wat is this games?? ...im 17 so..never too late 2 learn this.....all my frend like say "omg u so noob 4 not know "Wow"...so tell me wat the hell is this game??

and 1 last question... isdota all star and Wow is the same?? O_O

omg..





go youtube around... and googling around...

u'll at least have some idea what is "WoW"...

Warcraft and world of warcraft is kinda different too.

(1) warcraft
when u play this, u have to build everything u need. Like barracks, the people u need for battle. I mean EVERYTHING. Like a war game but u have to build everything around u.lol almost like being a president of ur own country.haha

(2) world of warcraft
it focuses on 1 character only. YOUR character in which u can customize the look and all. You have to level up and choose jobs or whatever. Typical mmorpg.

(3) dota
i could say the easiest. It's like wow's mini-game. (lol)
u choose between preset chars only..the only thing u have to worry about is the weapons u use or whatever. It's like an enhanced war game.lol a battle between other bases.

in simple way
dota= u start fresh character, lv up by killing n pwning n farming. buy stuffs from the gold u earn, makes u more geng... after this match is over... means over. no part 2 or continue ur char in another game. go play all over again. kill.. farm... pwn... buy stuff.. over... kill... farm.. buy stuff... bla bla bla...~~

wow= u pay to buy the original wow, register up, start to play ur char.. level up by killing monsters n do quest. save up the gold u've earned for mounts (spend gold in AH b4 u hit max lv is not a smart move, no point gearing up) then when u r tired.. off the game n come back later to continue. then u explore the world of azeroth n eastern kingdoms, make ur way to outland (northend too! very soon!) after hitting max lv, u go for heroic dungeons or raids where u join a grp consist of 10-25people or even 40people for pre-bc to kill just bosses where drop epics.

pros about wow compared to dota: u get to keep what u've worked for, dota u lv up but after this round, u start lv 1 again, but u get to keep it for wow. walking around exploring the 'world', just chill n relax n chat with random guys. got more but cant think of any...

cons: u've got to pay for it. very very addictive sial but since if u addicted to dota too... then no difference la. lots of farming. materials... reputations... honor... arena... omg >.<~~ give u 48hours a day maybe not enough also.

the rest all maybe same... the game is srs business, whine n make drama n u r usually out... got noobs n pros in games... but sometimes more noobs that makes ur vein all pop out on ur head.

maybe u got confused from the characters in Dota n WoW. That is if you dont know about WoW's lore. go read about wow's story... quite nice u know... or just play warcraft.

tats all i can say about wow atm...

Lets see if I can crap something out. I'm rather bored atm.


Once upon a time, there was an era in a universe called Blizzard. During this era, there were constant ongoing wars. On every planet, there's a name given to every war. The most famous wars are named Starcraft, Diablo and Warcraft. Just like the World Wars on planet earth, they have Starcraft 1 & 2, Diablo 1, 2 & 3 and Warcraft 1, 2 & 3. They were all wars under the category of RPG.

But then came the mother of all wars called the World of Warcraft, where MILLIONS of people (real people) join forces from all realms and battlegroups with two main sides. Namely, the Horde and the Alliance. Each side has its own races and there were many classes involved. This war is placed under the category or MMORPG. In order to play a significant role in this World of Warcraft, you need to train from a novice level of 1 to an advanced level of 70. During this time, you will go through vigorous trainings and skirmishes. But once you attain your advanced level of level 70, you are able to contribute to the war.

You fight, slay and conquer dungeons for better gear in hopes of defeating evil. There are many regions, different goals to achieve. You can choose to join groups of 2, 3, 5, 10 or 25 in the many types of battles. You will fight till the last drop and continue playing this god damn game until you don't have the itch any more because all you do is the same old sh*t day in day out. Then you decide to quit and gues what, a new expansion comes out and you feel like you HAVE to contribute to this sh*t all over again. Oh well... Hope my description gave you a rather clear picture of what WoW is.

oww so u saying...WoW is like a "Ragnarok or RYL"
and warcraft is like an command and conquer .. is that true??
..
..
..
..
...ermm the way u guys explaining seem like dota allstar is kidda lame if u big fan of dota pls dont mad at me...XP

that's plagiarism.. -10 or is that you?
tomato: http://www.blurtit.com/q695645.html

Warcraft I, II, III
Real time strategy game where u build your army and battle. (eg. command & conquer, starcraft...)

Dota
A Warcraft III custom map created by someone where u control a single hero instead one bunch of army.

World of Warcraft
MMoRpg, level level level, raid raid raid, pvp pvp pvp..

yes, you seem to get the idea

ahh ok..ermm it the game free 2 play..i mean the Wow.

no, there is monthly fees that you have to pay

There is only 2 payment method
either by prepaid card or credit card.

With credit card, you can choose 3 type of recurring subscription.
1 month
3 months &
6 months

this could help you more precisely...

play & browse around with it...

the answer is all there...

Just go into a cybercafe and see what the hype is all about.

Or go to one of the cybercafes next week that is having the competition. Then you can seriously feel the WoW atmosphere.

but everyone dota in cybercafes and im embarassed to play wow coz ppl will tease me if i do, thats why i have setup 2 coms to serve my wow purpose , 1 to tank and 1 to dps, i ownz.

WoW is a mmoRPG based on DOTA, but not as popular DOTA. But its doing quite well. Warcraft 3 is just a map mod for DOTA, nobody plays it anymore.

not bad i say. not bad.

Wao... Based ON DOTA !!!!!!!!
first time i heard it..

I'ved played it for 1 year plus and i didn't notice it at all.. lol...

i applause youre attemp mon! ur one gud troll!

Added on November 4, 2008, 4:51 pmWhy would you be embarrassed to play WoW? I feel that people who play O2 Jam, Maple Story or any of those dancing games where you keep spamming the correct buttons at the right time should be embarrassed. I sense that I've offended a few people.

I've been playing WoW for almost 4 years and just recently stopped, because I found that its skillcap is not as high as DOTA's. So, yeah. I know.

4 years and you cant differentiate what is DoTA and WoW. Thank God you quited.
"Hell, its about time."

HAS to be an attempt at being sarcastic. HAS to be. HAS...to...be...

x.x

Troll troll troll !

ya...thank god he quit...
i guess he's just lvl to 70 and say that "darn, its soo easy to lvl to cap level, unchallenging, I'm going back to play lego and quit wow"

Probably he's one of them:
- They are depressed emo teenagers that have a lack of attention, trying to look for any form of significance. They want their voice to be heard because apparently in reallife, that never happens.

WoW is like DOTA with some RPG and persistent elements. Also retired WoW players usually play DOTA 4-6 hours a day.

Call of Duty 4 is like DOTA also but with guns and first person 3D.

Little Big Planet is like DOTA in the sense that you can build your own levels using the editor.

Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball started from DOTA but comes with a lot of bouncy balls.

Warhammer Online is also from DOTA, but with less players.

Making love is like DOTA you keep farm and farm, after 9 months you got a new lvl 9 item.

Working is like DOTA, you keep farm and farm, after end of month you got your gold, in the middle of that time u got own by your boss, or worse gang bang by few of them.

Eating is like DOTA, you combine mee/rice/meat/vege, then you produce a new item call shit.

Holy sh*t I think everything is like DoTA.... Just different variations of it. LOL.

But on a side note, in terms of PvP, because that is what DoTA is based on; unless you consider farming and killing neutrals to be PvE content =/

Lets compare both DoTA and WoW 5v5 Arena. They both require teamwork, coordination and skills in order to be the better team. For people who say that 5v5 arena has its cookie cutter teams, heck; go to DoTA competitions and you will see alot of cookie cutter teams. Both games are affected by the so-called RNG. Comparatively, DoTA's map is way bigger than any of WoW's arenas.

The few differences are DoTA incorparates leveling AND competitive PvP in a very short time, and WoW 5v5 Arena is a Deathmatch with no reincarnation(unless you get a chance to be revived which is close to 0%). DoTA, you die you reincarnate and your main goal is to destroy their base. WoW 5v5 Arena, your main goal is to kill all 5 opposing players.

So you can "loosely" say that DoTA is similar to WoW 5v5 Arena, but with a short-cut. LOOSELY. So please don't flame.

You can do a ton of other things apart from doing 5v5 Arena in WoW. Which is why it is extremely addictive. You work for your items and gold and you get to KEEP them.

Seeing so many sarcastic comments made me actually wanna help the TS. >_<

Sigh, noobs making DOTA jokes, how childish.

Guess some ppl are too ignorant to know that DOTA won Game Of The Year award for year 2006 and 2007.

Lrn2post, nub.

Sichiri, the more you post on this thread the more stupid you're making yourself look. At the same time, you're also confirming to us that you're not a troll.

PS. Try to understand what sarcasm means.

"WoW Still Pwns
Personally, my tastes run towards shooters and sports games, so it was slim pickings for me this year on PC. Thankfully, Blizzard made sure World of Warcraft was always there to keep me company, from the opening of the gates of Ahn'Qiraj in January to Naxxramas later in the year. Most companies would be on their third expansion at this point, but Blizzard's been content to keep adding content for free. Our time with the Burning Crusade beta only hammered home the point that we've got at least another six months of WoW left to go; level 70, here we come!"

Quote from gamespy: http://goty.gamespy.com/2006/pc/

now I know u live in mars...go back to ur hometown, earth is too dangerous for u...

Successful troll is successful.

borat FTW!!!

Sichiri, u are funny..........
wakakakkaka

That screenshot is not nearly as epic as the killed by medic one

uhh.. they got a figure of 10-12mill of subcribers because they can count thru accounts that ppl made... but dota is free leh.. not everyone is playing WoW in msia.. maybe 70-80% or more plays dota more than wow? not sure of other country tho... but i think dota 100% got more players.. cant count got how many cuz they dont register or anything to play it. go every cc in msia... maybe 8/10 all dota de... gila wan. sometimes if i go cc play.. im the only 1 playing wow, others playing dota.. can hear them shout n curse like gila... lolz

more ppl plat dota in m'sia compare to wow??...yes...maybe even whole south east asia.
but in the whole world i dont think so,
u know taiwan actually got their own wow server, and how many china wow player , and how many Australia wow player there are, not to mention how many US wow player there are...
just go google it then u'll know, I'm too lazy to find the figure for you....

how bout we make a silly test...
u go google "dota" or "Defense of the Ancients" and "world of warcraft"...(at 1st i put wow, then i think the word "wow" might mean lotsa things, so i chg it..)
see "dota" or "Defense of the Ancients" will return how many page for u and "world of warcraft" will return how many page for u..

Too much brain power thinking of answering this thread.

Mindcry u terribad.

QFT

haha another topic which abit run out of the frame... Both WoW and Dota r diff genre but using the same char/toon... hmm...
Like sum1 from top did mention b4, WoW is a MMORPG game play like RYL, or those chinese game which u look from 3rd person view and its 3D. And as for Dota is actually a strategy type game. Means similiar like Command & Conquer or Starcraft. So, try not to compare a game which is not apple to apple. Jus my 2cents ^^

cakap banyak x guna. beli starter pack, enjoy ur game.

@ Quazacolt - Nagi!!!!!!

I don't even want to attempt to answer. Like above, buy starter pack/battlechest/whatever, and play. Habis cerita. /kthxbye
