. updated System Requirements. Since patch 3.0.2 several improvements have been made to effects and levels of detail in the game. As a result, the game will drive systems harder and you may see lower frames
per second than before. The first thing to bear in mind is that the scales for many graphical options in the game have been adjusted so that a setting that looks the same as it was before the patch, may actually be significantly higher in real terms leading to a better ingame graphical experience, but a lower frame rate too. In addition, the system requirements have been updated to take account of operating systems improvements: * Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is now a requirement. * Windows XP Service Pack 3 is now a requirement. * Windows 2000 is now no longer a supported Operating System. This means that if technical issues arise while playing the game under Windows 2000 or without these Service Packs, our technical support department may not be able to resolve them. We will still do our best to provide troubleshooting advice, but if our suggestions do not work, we will be unable to provide further assistance.
orc in the WOW
The savage, green-skinned Orcs are one of the most prolific races of Azeroth. They are commonly believed to be brutal and mindless, possessing no humanity or empathy for other races. Born on the hellish world of Draenor, the Orcs were brought into the kingdom of Stormwind through the dimensional gateway known as the Dark Portal and forced to wage war on the Humans. Although few are aware of their history, the Orcs once cultivated a noble, Shamanistic society on the world of Draenor. Tragically, the proud Orc clans were
corrupted by the Burning Legion and used as pawns in the Legion's invasion of Azeroth. The Orcs managed to rebel, however, and they were ultimately able to help turn the tide against their demon masters. Led by the young Warchief, Thrall, the Orcs have reclaimed their strength and honor. Now, the Orcs stand ready to fight not for the sake of conquest, but for their right to survive in their adopted world.
