Blizzard have won their case against World of Warcraft 'bot' maker MDY Industries. The bot, known as Glider, controls players' characters, saving them from actually playing the game, and raking in in-game currency and experience while the players themselves could be away from the computer.
Blizzard were awarded $6m in damages.
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Danish from eXputer: "Despite Blizzard's attempt to give a fresh new spin to World of Warcraft, some fans still seem to be stuck in the past."
HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
