[CristianHenri]

I remember having streaming download when i started playing WoW in late tbc, except the red/yellow/green area thingy

[MsAwsomelyawsome]

does the patch do all the changes to orgimmar and things or do you buy the game then it changes ??? please answer someone

[MultiJumpz]

How do u get the Beta Launcher? :)

[xenonecromera]

how do i start the patch downloading?, i have the beta launcher, but nothings happening with it

[Rattnuff]

haha cool music...

[tenetke]

An explanation of streaming technology: Soemthing WoW stole from Guild Wars. You don't have to like it, and you can try to block me for saying it, but it's true.

[MMOTotal]

@tenetke How can you steal that, makes no sense

[d0hacker]

it is already 100 times better in the pre-patch cata :)

[tarquin161234]

LOL this guy is funny.

[darthaustin95]

lol their showin u what Org looksa like after it gets nuked by Deathwing

[Semakon]

do you have a video about where to download the beta and private server (if you use one). Because I really want to try the beta myself but I just can't get it right :(

if you don't have such a video then please make one!

tyvm

[SainterX]

I love this feature

[NagisaChan20]

I love you xD

I lol'd so hard.

[KylesITOUCH]

Even when he's streaming the content, his game runs better than mine :(

[nowitski2]

if you have a cool accent it makes people sound less like a nerd for some reason

[Karllynch89]

god i love how arrogant we are <3

[Giesus3]

are the cities getting a make over cause Org looks different?

[OVER9000and1000000]

i think it looks cool building up the world around you when you log on its like when you were little and you would play with legos :D

[mdf123456789]

Lol, it's like the matrix world coming together...unintentionally a cool effect to logging in to the world, and it sort of forming around you.

[fatndeckert2]

Classic wow (pre bc) is considered vanilla. Don't know why. Don't question it.

[LanceDH]

@fatndeckert2 basic icecream flavor ?

[Lennywennypenny]

@fatndeckert2 Because it's just the basic content - nothing added to it.

Vanilla = plain

Pre-BC = plain

Vanilla = Pre-BC = plain.

:)

[MrDruidspwn]

i probably sound like a noob, in fact, i am a noob, but why is wotlk called vanilla? is it vanilla? it sounds like you're saying vanilla. great vids by the way.......orgasmic

[OmegaOmotron]

@MrDruidspwn Wotlk is not called vanilla. Vanilla is the term people use for the first game E.G vanilla wow is when it came out to the first expansion. It basicaly means the game before an expansion

[InsaneVender]

at least you have a 2MB connection i have a 1.5 MB connection

[chchockey51]

Is the release version going to be 17 gb like you said in another video?

[locutus9956]

to all the folks whining about Blizzard ripping of this or that and other people ripping off Blizzard... get over yourselves, Blizzard do what they have always done best which is to pretty blazenly take other folks ideas and polish them to a mirror sheen. They are masters of evolution rather than revolution in gaming. And if anyone wants to critisize them about it I'm sure they'll cry themselves to sleep and them dry their tears with the 2 billion dollars they make from WoW anually...

[patrykirl1]

phew i was worried that there would be loading screen but anyway there a lot of ppl per server so lets say about 1k of ppl per server that would be a terrible thing for the server if all would be streaming

[Gason54]

When i was playing goblin with the patch not finished yet. It kinda failed as i came to teh lost islands. The plank i was to land on wasnt there, so i fell into the water. Then it came and overlapped me. So i couldnt click the quest giver. But i was a little underwater, so i drowned. As a ghost, i couldnt move, then i used spirit healer, and relogged. Then it worked. So streaming may not always be best :P

[GuildWars2Official]

Guild Wars 2 exclusive beta starts next weekend!

[DieHardx23x]

@GuildWars2Official gay game

[Dragonteen3000]

Good artists copy, great artists steal -Pablo Picasso

[GinarTheNinjar]

OH THIS IS A RIP OFF OF GUILDWARS!

[PimSchaaf]

Thanks!

[Lorkin32]

I actualy saw a girl playing wow... Yes, this have nothing to do with catacylism eat crap and go burn a kitten if this comment bothers u!

[ThrallDoomhammer]

If u like tb you will LOVE thrall doomhammer

[UnabridgedHero]

What's the intro song?

[TheRottelings]

I know it might seem noobish but ive heard this a couble of times but what is Vanilla? Or Vanilla Wow?

[zgamez64]

@TheRottelings its wow before the burning crusade expanision

[MannyPearce]

@TheRottelings old wow

[xboxguy991]

cool if you go to the weapon shop and type in jim you can get a cool sword

[MrAlekssings]

Frank Klepacki is awsome 

[RedCaboose7]

how do ppl manage to hit the dislike button? :P

[rolandsta1]

guild wars, smild wars.

[Earthenx]

total Halibut...have you ever eaten real Halibut..If so how is it or are you morally against killing and eating your own kind...yes i know this is soooo random and out there but you make me laugh everyday with your videos so at least I could try and put a smile on you :D ....and yes i use very long run on sentences lol.

[TerreurDwergKevin]

Seems like a nice change, worked perfectly in Guild Wars.

*sigh*... Guild Wars...good memories, what a perfectly pvp balanced game it was. :)

[tightninja123]

What do you use to record im tryn to find something that is free

[hojdnatir]

Brings back bad memories of when I used to play WoW on my laptop, waiting 2 minutes for the buildings in Dalaran to appear.

[spritemakerman]

I can see glitches in the making

[TophTehBlindBandit]

@spritemakerman How? its the same world and same everything you just have to wait for all of the buildings to load (everything is still in its place you just have to wait to see it)

[TypicalJeff]

You're the king, TB. The King.

[Autubecritic]

Could you make a video with a troll & worgen druid moonkin and tree form please i haven't seen them i was wondering if the tree form maybe looks different for trolls and worgens and the moonkin form

[TotalHalibut]

@Autubecritic If I can find people who have levelled that far, yes. I couldn't do it myself, I'm too busy.

[suskei46]

@TotalHalibut Lol :3 your funny in every thing you say xD

[Autubecritic]

@TotalHalibut alright thanks

[Bloodsoldr]

@Autubecritic Tree forms are generic throughout WoW.

[AgitoVersus]

@Autubecritic u do kno that the tree is said to be a cd now instead of an actual transformation, at least thats wat blizzard said a while ago

[kalenmiyan]

@Autubecritic I heard somewhere that treeform was being taken out of the game...

[UFOXERT]

would you have to pay extra for having it streamed?

[TotalHalibut]

@UFOXERT No, not at all.

[garrett30328]

I think Dal does that, cuz when i first log in every one is invis.

[Kamikaze933]

WoW they improved graphix alot =D

[TorrKaffeBulle]

2mbit/s? I sympathize, or not. L2live in a country where you get good bandwidth for reasonable prices. Sweden for an example :D

[jumpoffahouse]

@Fetuxx

If you don't expect arrogance from the English, then you fail. It is part of our genetic makeup :D

[TotalHalibut]

@jumpoffahouse True dat. 

[Zeightix]

@jumpoffahouse *cough* Brittish lols mao, and yes indeed, being rather snarky was always a strong side, besides you also hate the french and the enemy of my enemy is my friend

[locutus9956]

@Zeightix the enemy of my enemy is my enemies enemy. Nothing more ;)

[connorkwl]

@jumpoffahouse Too true 

[tenetke]

@jumpoffahouse So if it's part of say blacks genetic make up to cause physical harm that is acceptable? Maybe you are confused? Perhaps just a fcking retard?

[Matt561]

@Slam54102 Well why? theres all the old Citys

[Fextuxx]

Arrogant moron! All Unsubcribe!!!!!!!!!

[TotalHalibut]

@Fextuxx You first, since you're still subbed to me. Do you need help finding the unsubscribe button?

[Thendiscomeing]

@Fextuxx dumbass

[locutus9956]

@Fextuxx Ignorant humurless twat! All ignore!!!!!!!

[TotalHalibut]

@Slam54102 There isn't a neutral city in Cataclysm.

[boms]

I'm a little confused, what is the reason behind that streaming thing? I mean, it doesn't take ''that'' long to download it all, does it?

[lysolbombs470]

@Slam54102

Nope.

[Xstormraider]

can non beta invitants download it cuz i really wanna go on new wow beta version

[sm0kie420]

@Slam54102 Orgrimmar and Ironforge. They want high levels to come back to the main continent...

[xSpoonz]

lol this system sounds cool, but im sure i have the ability to get up from my chair while its downloading and just go do something else while its done. Things like curing cancer, making sweet love to women, benching small sized buildings downtown and saving baby polar bears from small melting sheets of ice in the nothern ice caps.

[Harrabon]

Tb bear in mind the cataclysm servers are in America if im right, so the streaming might be alot smoother than that

[TotalHalibut]

@Harrabon This is also a possibility. Even the 'EU' servers are actually east-coast US based in the beta, whereas they're in France on live.

[Yankefanatic317]

This isn't a completely new technology. Didn't the 10 day trial version stream itself for new players?

[Harrabon]

@Yankefanatic317 Yes it did

[kasuturo]

@Yankefanatic317 Indeed!

[Schint0]

@Od3s He cares.. O wait, no he doesn't.

[Hirotoro4692]

@Od3s All his points are valid. This is a shocking example of blizzard leaning towards the old style of questing all over again. Doing random chores for various outposts is not at all compelling.

[TotalHalibut]

@Od3s OH NO, MY CHANNEL IS RUINED.

Actually, in the time it took for me to type this message, I got 10 subscribers to replace you :'( Hopefully they're not as thin-skinned and easily offended as you are, I'm not a fan of handling my viewers with kiddie gloves.

Sorry, 14 subscribers, that took longer than I thought.

[lysolbombs470]

@TotalHalibut

No, actually, I get that feeling too when all of your uploader comments listed are arrogant.

[TotalHalibut]

@lysolbombs470 The door is to your left, find a channel that doesn't offend your delicate sensibilities.

[MrMGUNIT]

@TotalHalibut lol that made me laugh :D

[ajc2123]

ew....streaming is hard to do in an almost uninstanced world game. Didn't take too long to download the city though.

I'm glad games are taking things from each other. There are features that make every game great in its own way, why would you NOT want to combine them?

[Sammut94]

Ugh stupid iPod, what I was trying to say is, TB, do u get paid to do these vids?

[Sammut94]

I bogu

[MaltheF]

is it one mb download or one megabit?

i dont warry since i have a 25mbit but my friend have a low connection.

[tacbeta]

Frank Klepacki is awesome

[elmurcielago2]

Streaming just seems like alot of unessisary lag

[TotalHalibut]

@elmurcielago2 So don't do it then.

[lavernious]

2MB DOWN?!?!?! I'm only 1MB DOWN and this is one of the best I can get!

[sebbea1000]

can u send me a download link to the song in the start?

[wendepic]

Lmao My download speed is 24 M/s :DDd

[rlj1983]

@wendepic 24 M/s isn't a download speed. That's called latency.

[wendepic]

@rlj1983 i mean 24 MB per second so 24 megas per second thats dl speed....

[mariooss]

Nice work Totalbiscuit. You make the best Cataclysm videos so far. Keep it up!

[ImCaliforniaGrown]

@mariooss /agree

[shydow1000]

Would it hurt if I put a penis into a car exhaust?

[rlj1983]

@shydow1000 Not if it was yours, it would be like throwing a grain of sand in a cave.

[GGORRO]

@coo446 shut up u fuckhead...

[Tukan777]

@coo446 Trolling on youtube is for cunts

[SOADwillruletheworld]

@coo446 thats ok because nerds go to college and make more money, good luck at working at McDonalds for the rest of your life.

[TotalHalibut]

@coo446 And nerds run the world. Get over it.

[GloryoftheHero]

@TotalHalibut Nerds don't only RUN the world, they own it.

[Zeightix]

@TotalHalibut "Be kind to nerds, chances are you might end up working for them later on"

[beefjerky207]

@coo446 dun make me rape your cat

[Hazelminker]

@coo446 you don't like it?

its ok

judging from the 12M that play WoW, we are just fine without you

[soylentgreenb]

@coo446 Nerd is still an insult? Really?

[xDeviousProductionsx]

@coo446 owned

[unknown235]

@coo446 hehe trolling is for nerds... and i bet im less nerd then you i sport every day.play guitar, hang with friends and i dont troll so hmm seems like i have more life then you will ever get :)

[buldren0101]

@unknown235 no offense, but he's got plenty of responses, so that makes him a pretty successful troll, and you're kinda doing what he wants =/

[Duality1]

@coo446 So apparently all the video games all for nerds? Idiot..We want to chill out, We aren't 24/7 workers.

[PlaystationPedia]

@coo446 And you playing MW2 all day or whatever you play, is less nerdy? :DDDDDDDDD ignorant motherfucker get out of here.

[OrcishTroll]

@coo446 Then why aren't you playing it?

[locutus9956]

@coo446 I thought about posting a witty reply to this but that would entail some small effort wasted on you so I shall simply say 'fuck off you idiot'

[valvagia77]

totalbiscuit, one small question I've got. Does the launcher cooperate with the computer system? for example if you got a crappy computer. will you have a red area whenever it is for normal computers yellow?.

Thanks. and keep the video's running.

[xKrelborn]

If my connection isnt to slow for the streaming mechanic, i might take advantage of it.

[TotalHalibut]

@xKrelborn Blizzard are saying you need a minimum of a 1mbit connection to use the system.

[tomroxelf]

@TotalHalibut Sorry if this has been answered before but, will it only do that initial long loads when you log into the game. Or will nothing in the zone appear for a while everytime you enter a new one? How is streaming required in the beta?

[lysolbombs470]

@tomroxelf

We are beta testers, therefore we test things. It's required for us, not for you. It will only do that when you've first logged in. Some details and sounds will be missing.

[tomroxelf]

@lysolbombs470 Thanks, I'm also in beta and is straight up doesn't work for me. I know it isn't required for retail.

[Meeyoh]

@vekka220 try pressing Caps-lock.

[TheBainzz]

@vekka220 Fuck off american gay cunt

[Xantexhunter]

@vekka220

Bandit Keith: "I don't understand you! Try speaking american, its the only language i understand.... IN AMERICA"

[TotalHalibut]

@vekka220 Why would I speak the Fisherprice version of the english language?

[MrSanctuary86]

@TotalHalibut

You're right. I'm german and I have no problem to understand your speaking.

[kingc0m]

@TotalHalibut because dropping letters out of words so the "simple folk" can speak it is the american way !

[migs321]

@TotalHalibut You dun goofed!

[kablesxx]

@TotalHalibut HAHAHAHAHA, I'm American (>.>) and I thought that was hilarious. And true. :(

[jaymaccab]

@vekka220 lol... speak American.

/headdesk

[buldren0101]

@vekka220 Thanks for continuing a stereotype of Americans that the rest of us resent greatly, jackass

[polynuuma]

@vekka220 you lead a sheltered life if you can't understand this.

[locutus9956]

@vekka220 Congratulations you have actually lowered the average IQ of the entire human race with the sheer stupidity of that comment.

[priest2001]

You've got a spectrum and bbc micro shelf?? Boy do you need to spring clean, next you'll be telling us you ride to the pub in your c5....still the micromen would be proud of you. I must confess i haven't been watching many of your beta casts mainly because i don't want to spoil the suprise but really liking what i have seen and happy you've started doing a bit of starcraft again keep it up.

[TotalHalibut]

@priest2001 Fuck that, I've got plenty of space for retro. I ain't spring cleaning jack.

[soklot]

my DL is 200-450KB/s so.... -.-'

[Mayito1990]

WHAT RACE DO YOU USUALLY PLAY AS? AND CLASS?

[Monkeyfishism]

@Mayito1990 WHAT ARE CAPITALS!?

[thijsvanleeuwen]

streaming should save them bandwith, wich in return should be handy for getting the download sped up, instead of the full package, you only download the content your going into.

forinstance, they should not have to send you characters models and textures for zones you are not going to anniway, like if your main is l20 your not going to l60 teretory so downloading that has verry low priorety.

also most users wil have dual core processors by now so the game should not get to leggy ;)

[homeflakes]

2 MB down is horrible??!? Mine caps at ~700 KB/s!

[Gregathor]

@homeflakes mine caps at 150 KB/s... yea.....

[TotalHalibut]

@homeflakes MegaBIT

[JustTimmeh]

@homeflakes 700 kb/s means your bandwidth is ~ 5 MB.

[locutus9956]

@homeflakes 2MB/s is horrible for the states perhaps, I'd KILL for that download speed over here in the UK. Seriously, give me a loaded gun and tell me who to shoot :P

[homeflakes]

@locutus9956 He said 5Mb/s, not 5 MB/s apparently. Apparently, 5 Mb/s is equal to 700ish KB/s. I wish people would pick one or the other to talk in.

[BlastFocusrite]

Yay no more 12hour + installation :D

[StrangeFab]

You just became even more awesome by using Frank Klepacki as background music.

[queriak]

So how is this working again? You download the latest patch while Blizzard offers you to play on the server kinda clientless via stream?

[credor2]

make a vid of LOCH MODAN! :) dont know why i just love that word :D

[Jknessmic]

2mb? 2mb? sadd  *sob* 10mb here son :)

[pievendor2000]

so it only has to download once?

[27Metaldragon]

this is new technology?...this is how my game's loaded for the past few years...

[scratchbfunk]

is there any changes to thunder bluff as of yet?

[BroncoBoy89]

Warhammer Online has done this since release...it works really well on there.

[poohead605]

TB HAVE U DOWNED THE lk?

[HollowWolfBearFang]

AH, glad to see gaming is still evolving. Like the music, thanks for the video.
