Exploring a new zone by jumping off a cliff in to it? :P

To make sure you don't miss a screenshot, you might also want to have a program recording what you do. Then you could make it in to a movie! :P

I liked Nightfall a lot as the graphics reminded me of Pre in the quality of execution.

I really liked the customizable skill bars and equipment for the heroes and the ability to direct them in battle. Being able to setup Koss as a W/Mo with Mending and Gladiator's Defense and send him in to tank was pretty cool. Clearly though, wanting to equip all my heroes with the best Greens will be a challenge - I am currently gathering a horde of Collector's items for them in anticipation.

It did not seem as much a grind to me how they combined advancing one's character with advancing in rank - much better than faction farming in Factions.

Bottom line for me is that Nightfall looks like a winner.

(Never played WoW but looking for a screenshot when you hit 60 )

Actually... I've been 60 for over a week now. I didn't do anything special. I thought I was two kills away from 60, but it turned out to be just one.

Doh!

What's with that green bar where your experience bar user to be? Does the Experience Bar get replaced when you hit 60?

If you look at the first picture in this thread, there are two bars. One is for EXP the other is for faction.

When you hit 60, the EXP bar disappears!

Do you think the game tracks xp after level 60? It would make getting to level 70 easier when the Expansion hits

What faction is the bar tracking?

I don't think it does. If you notice, it says "You Feel Normal" which means my rest bonus was blocked at that very spot.

I don't remember, but probably Stormwind. You can select one Faction to track from the Reputation tab. Right click the bar, then a new window should pop up.

I doubt it. They want people to keep playing and paying, so if it keeps ticking people would play in The Burning Crusade less :P

Personally, once you get finish all of the high-end instances I don't see how it stays interesting. Guild Wars gets a lot less fun once you effectivly finish the game, even though it is the most fun game :P I've been wondering around the Guild Wars world, workingon titles a bit but it is a lot less fun then Prophecies, Titan Quests, and Sorrow's Furnace were. I can't wait for Nightfall to come out.... I hope it has interesting features that will last until Chapter 4...
