WoW Patch 4.1 on Live Servers this Week
That’s right boys and girls it’s a big week for Wow Zul'aman and Zul'Gurub are back as heroic-only dungeons! And Guild Challenges . Built into the Info panel of the guild user interface, Guild Challenges will be weekly tasks guild groups can tackle for additional guild experience, achievements, and gold.
This is the official word from Blizzard!
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm patch 4.1 is now live! For your reference, we've compiled all the new content and features, official art, trailer, and patch notes in this handy blog entry.
The rise of the Zandalari is upon us, so make sure you’ve read up on the new level-85 Stranglethorn quest line, as well as the updated dungeons of Zul’Gurub and Zul’Aman -- now suitable for five level-85 players with an average item level of 346 or higher. All-new epic gear, rare mounts, pets, and other interesting treasures await you, should you be able to rise to the challenge of the Zandalari!
If you’ve found yourself waiting in dungeon queues longer than you’d like, we have a new system, Dungeon Finder: Call to Arms, you should know about. The Dungeon Finder will be offering an additional incentive to players of underrepresented class roles. With this feature we hope to get you into the action faster.
We’ve also built a new Guild Finder feature into the game interface and plan to expand upon its functionality in upcoming patches. Whether you’re a player looking for a guild, or a guild leader looking to recruit, this system facilitates those activities. We’re continuing to update, improve, and adjust the Guild Advancement system and want to make sure you’re given the tools to find and maintain a fun guild.
If you’re already tackling content with your guildmates, you’ll probably be interested in Guild Challenges. By completing dungeons, raids, and Rated Battlegrounds in guild groups, you’ll attain new achievements, accrue gold for the Guild Vault, and earn guild experience above the current daily cap. We plan to introduce more Guild Challenges in future updates.
Now, without further ado, here are the official 4.1 art, trailer, and patch notes.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Jedi Knight Video
As you progress in Star Wars™: The Old Republic™, your character grows more powerful, gains experience, discovers new skills, and acquires more advanced gear.
In this video, you’ll get a sneak peek at how the Jedi Knight can evolve in The Old Republic. This is just a small sampling of the armors and skills available, but we hope this gives you a taste of how the Jedi Knight will look as he develops through the course of the game.

Rift end game.
So it has taken me just over 3 weeks to get to max level of 50 in Rift and I must say it was a lot of fun!
Game play was challenging all the way to 50 and the changes in zones spiced it up to ensure it never got dull.
I was surprised so see new skins and even models all the way through to 50 it was a refreshing change to not be killing the same things that have a new colour and an extra 5 levels in every 2 zone..
I have also crafted all the way maxing it out as I go. I picked up outfitter , mining and butchering but was sad to see there was next to no coin to be made from gathering or crafting. The only thing that sold for over the vendor value was bags. If I put 5 items on the auction house I might be lucky to sell one for just a phew gold over the vender price. Most of the time it was a lot more profitable to just quest.
PVP the Warfronts are a lot of fun I’m not big on world PVP but love warfronts but 80% of the time I found my faction out numbered making game play unbalanced so we all just stand around and get 4k experience for not doing anything or feed the other side free kills. Trion bragged about PVP in a video and yes it is fun when u get 2 full teams. But it was not the case for most of the way to 50. I did spend 2 hours waiting for a Warfrount at 50 but never got in.
Story..
Who am I what is this place?? I feel this is the big hole in the game I find my self at 50 and still not knowing a lot about this world and No I didn’t read the 100’s of quest log story’s along the way you get the 6 quests click next and off you go there is not time to read all that stuff and no group will wait for you to read it either. I found the lack of cut seen or audio in the game a big letdown. In this day and age there is no reason not to have full audio and lots of in game video in a game.
I love the quick pick up raids and rifts bit I am worried about the lack of end game content out side or raids. The dungeons are there but I have found it next to imposable to get a group. The only time I have had the chance to run a dungeon is on the weekend as I play on Oceanic time and there are no Oceanic servers I might have to sit around till my guild levels to 50…

Ok This might not be just a phase I think it’s a full on Rift!
This Rift looks like it pulling thousands of WoW players over to the other side! Rift general chat if full of ex WoW players screaming about how great Rift is. I my self after playing Rift for about 12 hours cancelled my WoW account I see no reason to go back to re play content I’v spent 1000’s of hours in over the last 4 years I was surprised to see only 3 people online in my WoW guild on Sunday Night the guild has over 200 members and it is looking bad as I know at least 4 of the main 10 man Raid teem has cancelled there WoW accounts..
Now to get me wrong WoW is still a great game its just Rift is offering something very new and a lot of people jumping ship have played WoW for 3 years +.
Rift for me has been a blast Its all shinny and new its really well thought out and the difficulty level seems to be just right, I rolled a rogue and specked ranger with some Marksman it took about 12 hours to get to level 20 and that’s with a lot of sight seeing. The rift mechanic adds a cool new twist that brings players together in the world.
The graphics are beautiful and my rogue looks real cool the animation is the smoothest and most realistic I have ever seen in a MMO. I found my self zooming round looking at my toon all the time.
All I can say if you like MMO’s and you have not tried Rift your missing out! Go Get It Now!

Rift the WoW killer or just a good fill in?
To be honest I have been cutting down the amount of time I have been playing WoW, I stepped down as guild leader and have raided with another guild for the last phew weeks.. Its just not doing it for me this time, I’m not saying this is a bad expansion its just 3 years doing the same thing just with a sexier new skin isn’t cutting it for me this time. I realised this over the last month as I played other games instead of WoW I even got more enjoyment out of an IPad game BattelHeart (this game needs a post of its own)
As I looked around for other things to fill the hole that WoW isn’t filling for me at this time I kept finding more and more people pointing to Rift. I have not herd one person say it sucked yet I get comments like its like a new pare of joggers the same type of fit just shinny and New, and WoW players saying its an easy cross over if you get stuck just do what you would do in WoW it’s the same just new and improved. And looking in to it Rift looks nice So I downloaded it and jumped on the special offer of 6 months for $59.94 I will see what its like over the weekend and let you know and if I get time I will set up a Rift page on Gamingface and see what news we can get!

Law firm targets bloggers for a quick buck!
The is a must read for any blogger out there! This US law firm is using tactics to sue bloggers for content posted on there site .. but you can protect your self!
I don’t know how they can think this is the right thing to do, all I see is a predator swooping down on the helpless bunny.

The law firm Google-searches for anyone who may have posted the images and goes after those who violated the rules for the maximum $150,000 and ownership of the site's domain. Most individuals just want the case to end so they chose to settle, which is where the law firm cashes in.
