Few questions...

lightning13

I just have a few questions about WoW:

1) If you use a game/time card, do you have to register with a credit card, or use a credit card at all?

2) How big is the game with all current updates?

3) Is the only difference between PvP and Normal servers that PvP servers are open pvp and Normal servers are optional pvp?

4) Do you need to use a Credit Card for the free trial period, or can you do it with a game/time card?

Thats all, please answer these if you can. Thanks.

On PvP servers you can be attacked in any contested, or opposing faction area, on the non-PvP servers, I believe you can only be attacked if you are in an opposing faction area.4) Do you need to use a Credit Card for the free trial period, or can you do it with a game/time card?No. You can do it with a game card, which will start after the free 30 days.Thats all, please answer these if you can.

little correction: in normal servers you CAN'T be attacked, period. Not in contested nor in opposing faction areas. You can turn yourself PvP enabled by a keyboard command OR by attacking factioned NPC, like city guards and others, OR by healing/casting positive buffs on already PvP-enabled allies.

Once you are PvP-Enabled, everybody of the opposite side can attack you and this action will, obviously, flag them PvP-enabled also. the flag, if you are not fighting, last about 5 minutes.

A little difference are Battlefields, PvP instances, as there everybody is pvp-enabled from the get go and for the whole duration of the battle. Would not make much sense otherwise. And yes, battlefields are also available in pve servers.
