It is up but I have to do some driving :-( So just a quick try, I can stop anytime :-) Loader says 6.0.2 live Play After logging in I have to choose realms again then I guess 'suggest realm' button? Yes. See mine, select, 'incompatible' wtf? logout of loader. restart Ahh..downloading more content. 16MB Did that, now 'the download program is preparing to start' nothing, still stuck stop, restart Game playable, no downloads now it goes to login Tadah! character selection 'you are running a new version and have interface modifications that are out of date' Disable ...Ohh good grief My humans, they look...where is a bucket ? Okay, 'disable' Well there it is Popup of what's changed,request button to start Quests for patch events. Accept, just accepts, no location change. FPS is higher, I guess the graphics..but it is very jumpy, not smooth. Talents are intact,but glyphs are messed, some new glyphs, buttons are all over the place and missing. Omg, the numbers, they are so small :-) This will take a while, so go out and fly around still very jumpy on the graphics No , that's it , they have all gone panda yompity bleeerch QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ
