It's been confirmed by Netease that this beta test will be extended. It's not informed how long this test will be but Netease says they will update the news everyday so just log ur game and see how much time u have with ur account.
Netease is still modifying the game, as required by the stupid govern who asked BLZ to change trinkets into boxes. Now the game is called World of Boxcrafts by many chinese players.

Trinket into boxes??? WOB???

You're right those guys are both fool and useless.

Heh yeah, loads of icons changing everywhere. My warrior has a mace that now looks like a pile of dust. Seems that anything with 'skull' or 'death' in the name is being changed to something completely non-sensical and meaningless.

I don't get what the big deal is about skulls and bones in China? Can someone explain that to me?

me a Chinese also don't understand why the Netease and Blizzard make these changes too. making Chinese wow more special and more different with other wows?

i feel lucky that i'm a warrior, not a warlock.

death and everything that concerns it is a taboo in China.. guess that's why... they're exagerating though... i mean in France, money is a taboo and nobody changes icon ingame and stuff ...

Hadn't noticed all the extra sacks lying around in the place of bits of bone previously, but the pictures here show how much the Chinese version is being dumbed down

You won't notice the changes when you play wow in US client (English) though. You will only notice the body sacked graves when playing the CN client. Which pretty much means the Chinese can crack/modify their client version to see those bones again if they wanted too!

The funny thing is ..Corruption icon ( the exploded stomach in the US version) was changed in CN version to a backpack...

Demmit! Why am I cursing people with boxes!
And why is this guys head a backpack?!

TABOO my ass
if the govern is afraid that such "un-harmonious" icons are going to corrupt the people's mind, why don't they erase the word "skull" and "bone" from it's fxxking dictionary. I eat things with bones everyday, chicken, pork, even pigeon, and i didn't turn into undead. i may seem a little evil outside, but inside i'm a patriot and good man.

one day I watched CCTV at around 16:00 PM and there was a historic movie about the british invading Tibet. And there was a war scene, where the Tibetan soldier cut the head of a british soldier in half in the vertical, with a big zoom on the details.... seriously I was a little schocked to see a scene like this at this time, when childrens are most likely back from school and having a small break watching tv.

I'd say they should first start to censure the violent scene on TV during the afternoon instead to command a ban of some pseudo icons in a PEG3 year videogame.

Holy shit I'm gonna delete my lock if the icons are all fucked up

EVEN BY PLAYING WITH EU/US WOW ????

Load of shit!

"Hell, it's about time...."

Yesterday evenning (11 pm) in Maduolan (CN1 Sh) it was very laggy. And this morning I had the same problem.

Funny lag, the chara is blocked and we can only speak.

Have you noticed some lag on yours?
