World of Warcraft Patch 2.2 release notes

I found a post on the Official Forums that was referenced on Thottbot, about Patch 2.2 of World of Warcraft and how it is not only going to have voice chat built in and a new guild bank feature to better support guild needs, but it's also going to introduce video recording capabilities for Macintosh users.

Here's the full patch notes for patch 2.2 which has moved into the Player Test Realms very very recently.

If you'd like to participate in the player testing portion of the patch releases to help find bugs or odd behaviors before it hits the main realms and causes extended shut downs and maintenance periods (or outright crashes), check out the information Blizzard has provided here.


Why Video Recording Only On Mac?

Windows users are able to use a Freeware? Shareware? version of FRAPS to make game videos but Mac users have only paid options ($79 for software for example) and thus the WoW game designers are motivated not only by the Mac users of the game, but the internal software testers within Blizzard that use Macs and are submitting bug reports to the developers.

Why I Care

Cuz I'm playing on a Macintosh of course! And I've got aspirations for my WoW future that include taking video clips of my play time! And I'm super glad I might actually have an option that doesn't require me paying for software I have no idea if I like or if I hate!

Go go Blizzard.
