If you could make any mount for the new races what would they look like?

the goblins i'd give mech shredder type vehicles, not actual shredders but something similar in style.

worgen? not sure. i'd rather hear about their actual mount first, get an idea of what the hell they are and how they came about to be used
Check out some arty stuff?

I like the goblin roadster idea, if it winds up looking anything like the picture that was shown at Blizzcon.

Tahlian plans to grind gobbo rep come Cataclysm to get a roadster, so he can drive around singing "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang." :lol:

Now if I could just get my car to fly...

I'm perfectly happy with the mount Goblins get. However, for worgen... I'd have to say...

THIS.

Judging from sketches I have seen from Blizzard, goblins are getting some sort of hotrod and the worgen are getting some sort of... wereboar looking thing. Both of those are awesome idea, imo.

I'd give the Goblins the hot rods, it fits their personality.

As for Worgen, I'd naturally say Wolf, but the Orcs got those. Perhaps some form of Wolflike horse...

Yes, they showed a wolf/boar hybrid mount at Blizzcon. To be honest, they may change that depending on how it develops. It stands to reason that the horses they used prior to the plague may have gotten plagued themselves, resulting in something like a were-horse. If not a horse, per se, then probably something else that's large and ridable in the area that got plagued.

Goblins are getting go-karts. It was a big smash at Blizzcon and unless there are issues with making a cow fit in a go-kart, I'd say that's probably what it'll be. It would be ironic... the 1k needles race track gets flooded right before we get the ability to ride mariokarts.
I don't really feel like this is so much the "Post-Modern" era as much as its the "Pre-Zombie-Apocalpse" era. I consider myself more of a forward thinking guy and an era that just won't die is just as feasible as a coming era, where the dead come back.

I found a youtube video were Blizz was discussing the worgen at Blizzcon.
Take a look right >>> here <<<

Anyway, there was a picture in the back. I did cut it out for you, in case you missed it in the video.

But what that is, I just don't know.

Yup, that's the weird boar/wolf/something that I'm pretty curious about.

Here's a closer look at that concept art:

Like I said, WEREBOAR!

Now if they end up scrapping that for something else, they better leave that model for a beast we can tame! That is just so crazy looking. Loque, eat your heart out :lol:

Actually i found the colored in version awhile ago, and it looks like a normal boar with armor. Its cool but i dont know it doesnt feel right with the worgen to me. I dont know for sure if its the one there using but it still looks pretty cool.

I love the idea of a were-boar. They need something a little rough around the edges and.. what's the word.. I dunno, beastly. I do, however, like the head of the concept art more, as it's less your typical boar.

I think it would be strange for them to ride on wolves, personally. Seems kinda.. too close to home or something, haha.

I have a feeling I'll be dumping a lot of time into a worgen when cata comes out, despite being anti-ally!

Yup, same here. Worgen will be my one and only Alliance character I've decided. :)

Eh, I don't like the pig. I'll likely do what I'd do with a draenei, farm Darn rep. Hehe. A wolf riding a cat. The image amuses me.

Edit: I want a warpstalker mount for the worgen. Except maybe not as low to the ground. Something reptilian.

That sounds like a very neat idea. The problem as I see it is lore... But hey, that's never stopped Blizz before. It's like the Eredar / Sargeras problem.

I suppose I question how were-pigs work...Don't wolves eat livestock when their natural prey is eradicated?

And yeah. Lore? What lore? :D

Wild boars can be some of the most savage creatures out there if they need to be. I'd imagine even a worgen would treat a boar big enough to ride with a healthy dose of respect. :lol:

Point. Still. I think the scales would...compliment? the fur nicely.

But hey. All in the air, and who knows. Maybe it's cooler in game. And besides, the drawn netherdrake model was different from the in game one...

I would totaly love a new reptile like model, like a dragon/lizard/horse/cat kinda thing. longer legs, holds itself like a cat, intelligence of a horse(so we could tame one! :mrgreen: ) but with a horned head, tail and spikes down its back with huge teeth, im thinking about drawing it or making in on Spore. :D
