[New] That's the World of Warcraft That I Used To Play! (feat. Oxhorn)

This parody of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" takes his entertaining lyrics and changes them into a parody of World of Warcraft nostalgia, past, and more. Remember the good ol' days of Vanilla World of Warcraft. This is a sequel to "That's the World of Warcraft That You Play!" 


DOWNLOAD THE SONG: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/thats-world-warcraft-that/id559891384

The original imo is much better than this... parody.

WoW Summer Challenge June 28 - July 4

Read all of the blue posts regarding this event here!

Every week this summer, we’re challenging you to get together with a few friends to explore a part of Azeroth that you may not have seen in a while, or perform a feat that you may have never done. We’re calling them World of Warcraft Summer Challenges, and we’re going to be playing along with you as we hunt down rare achievements, get screenshots of amazing bosses, and try to find some rare gear for our transmogrification sets.

In this thread, we're talking about this week's challenge, posting stories about experiences completing it, and linking to screenshots.

Furthermore, if you've thought of something awesome to do while exploring Blackrock Mountain (that we didn't include in the blog post), this is the place to say so!

[Fixed] How to: fix the "Error: The file "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft beta\Updates\wow-0-16030-Win-final.MPQ" appears to be corrupt. You may need to download this file again.

How to fix the "Error: The file "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft beta\Updates\wow-0-16030-Win-final.MPQ" appears to be corrupt. You may need to download this file again." shown at the WoW: MoP beta Launcher.
This fix works for every Win-final.MPQ error of this sort (such as 16030, etc.)

Go to the Updates folder (for instance C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Updates) and try running again the Launcher.
That worked for me flawlessly.
If you still experience any problems you could right click the Launcher.exe and choose Run as Administrator.
If that doesn't helps you could try running the Repair.exe and deleting the Cache folder.


It seems that it can happen with any patch, so do the same step as well. I just received the same error for the next build, 
ERROR: The file "\World of Warcraft beta\Updates\wow-0-16030-Win-final.MPQ" appears to be corrupt. You may need to download this file again.

This tutorial works in any game-client language, but let's write it in one more:
(Russian/Русский)

Ошибка обновления для Launcher.
Ошибка "Внутренняя ошибка программы обновления. Пожалуйста, обратитесь в службу технической поддержки Blizzard."
Если загрузка прервалась, и при запуске Launcher окно мигает и закрывается, либо появляется ошибка #134, попробуйте запустить файл WoW-x.x.x.x-5.0.5.16xxxx-Updater.exe из папки \World of Warcraft\Updates\

How to fix WoW Launcher: "Error: The file Localization.xml" could not be loaded."


Right click on the Launcher.exe or the shortcut and select Run as Administrator.
Done! That worked for me.
If it doesn't work for you, you can delete the Cache folder (World of Warcraft\Cache) and try again.
Another way would be to close the Agent.exe process.

[Fixed] WoW Launcher "Failed to read a required file"

If your WoW Launcher.exe for Mist of Pandaria (MoP 5.0.4) gives you the error on loading "Failed to read a required file" then hit CTRL+ALT+DEL, start the task manager, find the Agent.exe and hit End process.

Once this is done you will be able to start your client. If again you have problems run the Launcher.exe as administrator.
Another fix you could try is to do the following:
1) Renaming my WTF folder. (any name)
2) Running wow.exe
3) Logging in to the game. (All the way, actually entering the world with a character)
4) Exiting game.
5) Running the launcher.
Another thing which  you could do is go to the location of the Agent.exe and delete the file. On my Windows it was located at C:\ProgramData\Battle.net\Agent Just delete the whole folder, or better yet, zip it and move it before you delete it, to have a backup of it.

Another thing you could do if you have trouble download the MoP beta updates is to delete the updates folder in your WoW directory.

The problem was probably caused by the blizzard's development updating team, read the blue post here
