How to play World of Warcraft for free: gold payment and pirated servers

World of Warcraft is one of the most popular MMORPG in the world. The famous series of games from Blizzard for its long history has outgrown from an uncommon strategy into the most massive, recognizable and important game of the genre. Warcraft has become insanely popular for a reason - such a sensation can only produce a truly high-quality project. The game expects you: a giant universe, an advanced battle system, an amazing storyline and 12 thought-out game classes, and this is just a small fraction of what awaits you. A real paradise for both an avid gamer and a beginner.

For all the good you need to pay

The game industry, like any other, is created to make money, and multiplayer games are no exception. Gradually, users get used to paying for games, and piracy is getting smaller, but it's one thing to pay once for a disk or a digital copy, another thing is subscription games such as World of Warcraft. Company Blizzard requires a monthly payment for access to the world of World of Warcraft. Can I play for free? Many players who do not want to share money, managed to find the answer, and it's positive.

Official server

There is a main game server (divided into a number of worlds), which is supported by Blizzard, the most stable, fast, with the latest innovations and patches. To play it you need to pay 549 rubles a month. But even on it there is an option to play without attachments.

How to play free of charge in World of Warcraft with a limitation? To do this, you need to create a Battle.net account, select the appropriate game world and create a character. The created character will have a number of restrictions on communication and interaction with other players, and the maximum level is also limited. If you have a free account, you will be able to:

• Freely navigate the map;
• To be leveled up to level 20;
• To assess to the full the system of fights and dungeons;
• Try different races and classes.

How to play World of Warcraft for free? There is one more option, but for its implementation it is necessary to invest at least once. The fact is that more recently Blizzard offers players to sell at auction not only game items, but also the playing time that other, more experienced players can buy for playing gold. That is, if you have a pumped up character on the server, then you probably spend enough time in the game and will be able to earn the necessary amount of gold for a month to buy a month of playing time. In fact, the game for you will be free.

Pirate servers

Yes-yes, the phenomenon of piracy has overtaken and MMORPG. In many countries, you can find a lot of sites offering both free to play World of Warcraft, and for more modest amounts than required by Blizzard. The game is played on their own servers, but the same game client is used to log on as on the official server, only the data in the realmlist.wtf (the list of game worlds and their addresses) is replaced.

At first glance, this proposal may seem very tempting and interesting. Of course, it's the same World of Warcraft - a free server! To play on such a server, unfortunately, is not so comfortable as on the official one, which is quite logical, because their owners collect servers independently, not knowing all the subtleties of the game. What could such amateurism turn out for lovers of pozaritsya for free cheese?

1. Be prepared for the fact that your server will not support the latest updates. Maybe a year, maybe two, maybe it will not be updated at all.
2. Errors, non-working quests, abilities, talents, lack of certain functions. With all this will have to accept, and all this will necessarily happen.
3. Donat, "painted" equipment. The creators of free servers also want to eat, and therefore they introduce into the game additional items (which are not on the official server and can not be) to give an advantage to those players who are ready to support the server financially.
4. No technical support. Contact with Game Master'om in the game is impossible (unless he himself jumps on the light at will).
5. It's not known how long a server will last: recently they often close, taking with them your progress.

List of Russian pirate servers

If all of the above does not scare you, or if the thirst for a freebie takes over, then you need to at least pick a good server World of Warcraft. You can play for free in Russian: just look at MMOTOP - and you will see an extensive list of servers, but only the first 3 are worth attention.

1. Sirus is a very specific server that works on patch 3.3.5 (2009), but it uses a modified "launcher" that brings new features that are not peculiar to this version, including several new races, abilities and dungeons.
2. Uwow is a fairly large Russian server with a rich history and experienced administrators. The server keeps quite stable and supports a more modern version of the game (5.4.8).
3. Aldoran - another long-livers, boasting of expensive equipment and a lot of modifications in the game. Supports two versions: 3.3.5 and 5.4.8.

Instead of concluding

Now you know how to play World of Warcraft for free. The first option (the official server) requires a certain skill and more free time, but it will present a truly high-quality gaming experience. The second option in most cases does not require any financial costs at all, but be prepared for the fact that the "pirate world" differs significantly from what Blizzard invented and implemented.
