I wouldn't count on it, if you read up on the official thread here you'll be able to check out what the buddy team is working on. The warcraft patch notes are also available to read so you can see just how much has actually changed. I'd give it at least one to seven days before you'll see a stable release, but don't quote me on that however. With the amount of changes made to the game itself the bot will need to undergo substantial development to nail it out and then down plus internal testing will need to occur to make sure there aren't any nasty surprises waiting for us in-game. The beta release will probably work to some extent but I wouldn't instantly jump on and resume botting, the initial release will be rife with bugs and fraught with crashes; again don't quote me on that either. All we can do now wait patiently and hope and pray that we're back in game soon.
Nah it wasn't down I think can't find a single post about the downtime back then and I remember using it directly when mop came out. There was a huge downtime because of the patch tho like 2 weeks....
So I have been super excited for today's patch! I was very fidgety at work, wanting to come home, sit down and play. Turns out my internet's been down. . . HNNGH. Friggin' TWC. Maybe I should go take a run like I was planning on doing. . .
this may take a while. not really a big deal, the important question is how well it will function at WoD release to at least level in some fashion (BGs, arche, grinding) and do grind profiles for herbs and ore. a ton of money to be made in the first few weeks (even months) of a new expansion, that ghost iron ore you can't sell for 25g a stack now used to sell for 150G or whatever at Pandaria launch. and it was all over the place literally every 50 yards, but everything still sold instantly. my memory a bit hazy but i made a couple million gold just farming with GB2 in a few weeks, or just a couple weeks. which is more than i made the rest of the expansion lol what with the ban waves and rock-bottom herb and ore prices. maybe WoD will be the same. anyhow despite bossland's usual claims that every patch and expansion brings fantastical incredible changes that take weeks to figure out, other bots work just fine within days if not the same day (though admittedly those bots are much simpler than HB). so everyone freaking out too much is welcome to spend $5/month or whatever they cost till HB gets back to normal.
I just think the back-end devs are overwhelmed. it took a team of four hackers less than three days to drop the firewall of one of the most secure places in the world, is it really that hard to reverse engineer this stuff? my vote is no.
I know. and there are massively more significant changes around this time compared to the MoP pre patch. And since someone said they aren't even trying the patches on the PTRs, I'm pretty sure they are breaking the record by far this time lol
