MoP Releases 25 September

[Dave]

I'm pretty sure that everyone already knows this, but Blizzard says that they're releasing Mists of Pandaria on 25 September, and you can pre-order now.

Sheesh! I havn't even gotten through a fraction of Cataclysm's dungeons/raids, yet. I know, I know, being gone for over a year doesn't help the situation, but I guess I'll have to double-time it.

I pre-ordered the morning they announced it.  There's too much in this expansion I know I'm going to enjoy for me to pass up.

Do we get an extra character? My 10 slots are full!

[Dave]

I've heard a lot of stuff saying that you will get one additional character slot per realm if you buy MoP, but I haven't found a single blue post confirming it.  The closest I've found is http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/03/19/mists-of-pandaria-yes-you-get-another-character-slot/.

I've also heard rumors that they're doing away with the per-server limit altogether, and other rumors that you can pay cash for additional character slots, but these rumors are less well substantiated than the "one extra slot if you buy MoP".

I really hope that they give us more than one additional slot.  I've already got ten toons (one of each class), I'd like to have a monk, I'd like to have a Pandaren, and I DON'T want a Pandaren monk.  If they only give us one additional slot, I might delete one of the two toons I use to duo with my each of my sons after I level a Pandaren high-enough to take its place, and then roll a non-Pandaren monk.  If they don't give us an extra character slot at all, then I'll just have to live without a monk.

Ideally, they'll give me a way to get two more slots on my account, even if I have to pay for them, and I'll roll a trollette monk and a Pandaren hunter (since my hunter that duos with my nine-year-old will probabably never get to 40).

It was confirmed that we'd all get an extra character slot per server (blue post ages ago).  The other stuff is all just rumor at the moment, and I'm not convinced of their veracity.

I like the idea of a non-panderan monk. I'll have to think about which toon to delete/switch... thanks Dave

Annnnd back to the original point of the thread:

According to MMOChampion there is a 6GB pre-release download on the launcher now for live.  Cannot wait for it.  Great expansion (for me, at least).
