[UPDATED] Official WoW site now full Wrath

Except for the forums' Burning Crusade logo and greenish background, there are no more traces of the Burning Crusade's design on the official site. [UPDATE: The forums have changed to a Wrath of the Lich King design, as well.] Excitement is ramping up for Wrath, and we're caught up in it with a massive prize giveaway. We even redesigned the site just a few days earlier than Blizzard's minor cosmetic change. Now that the official site has gone full Wrath of the Lich King, we just might feel Arthas' influence a little more in-game. Note: if you aren't getting the Wrath page, you should try holding down the Shift key when refreshing the page. This should force the browser to get new data from the website (instead of the cache).

Is the expansion really less than 36 hours away?
Olee Nov 10th 2008 2:45PM
Not according to their own countdown timer...who knows.
Newbs Nov 10th 2008 2:47PM
That must be a typo- it should say less than 60 hours. Someone got excited and skipped a day =).
Zach Nov 10th 2008 2:49PM
No, I'm just an idiot at math. True story.
Olee Nov 10th 2008 3:47PM
S'aright Zach, we're all excited. :)

I got the old site too, but when I hit refresh I got the new one.

It seems to be working for me if you go into account management. The account management login screen also has a new look. Go check it out :P.

I'm surprised WoWInsider didn't use a blue/white/grey color theme when they redesigned their site to match WotLK instead of the tan/brown/orange. :-?

It's still the same BC for me as well. I did notice though that the wow logo is half blue and half green

For the new look to appear you have to hit refresh.
Wiggum Nov 10th 2008 3:13PM
The forums just changed to WOTLK as well.
