Press Tour Summary(Updated 3/20/12!)

[cowmuflage]

So I'm assumeing Night elf druids wont turn into that silly sprite tey do when their dead if they get that gryph?

[Chimera]

Druids seem to be getting some fun glyphs:

Glyph of Stars: Transforms your Moonkin Form into Astral Form. This glyph essentially makes your character appear as a spirit instead of a moonkin. You look very nearly like you do while dead — but people can see you this time. And your armor, for that matter.
Glyph of the Orca: Transforms your Aquatic Form into an orca. This one is pretty straightforward. Remember those orcas in Northrend? Yeah. Much better than your weird snarling rubbery seal.
Glyph of the Chameleon: Gives you a random appearance when you shift into Bear or Cat Form. Essentially, this one gives you a random coloring every time you shift. Great for breaking up the monotony of locked-in bear/cat coloring.
Glyph of the Stag: Transforms your Travel Form into a stag that other players can mount. Yes, that’s right. Your pals can ride you while you’re in Travel Form, and you’re also a stag instead of the clearly-inferior cheetah.

HOLY SHIT SWEET! <3

DOUBLE THAT!

I.. i may start playing Ysaeil again.. being my only maxed out druid AND a worshipper of Malorne, that travel form glyph is 1) amazing for my RP and amazing in general, and 2) shes already max level so i can jump right into the new content!

[Rower]

Those druid news are soooooooooo sweet! So glad that my new main is a drood <3
But I don't think I will drop my moonkin.
Stag form? Yay! My main companion is the winter reindeer, this is gonna be soooo cute!

[Samskeyti]

Need more glyph slots!! This is so much win <3

[Lisaara]

My main is a druid too. So I'm THRILLED!

[mpd_84]

Locks..get...beholders...
COMBAT WILLY!
I may have to roll a lock if that happens...

[Lupis]

Holy crap guys
I am REALLY excited for MoP. xD
The new glyphs made me actually squeal. I'll start playing druids again, that's for sure! Omnomnom, orca and stag form. <3

[Rower]

I'm excited too. And they finally confirmed that they ARE updating the old race models. The first to come should be Dwarves (maybe even for MoP release). Yay!!

[Rawr]

Why Dwarves, I would think they would update the most played character model 1st (male orc if you were wondering) I don't have one but it makes sense to me.

Uh...I'd like to know where you got that cause Humans, Worgen, Night Elves, and Blood Elves out populate orcs easily.

EDIT: http://www.warcraftrealms.com/census.php
1. Humans
2. Blood Elves
3. Night Elves
4. Draenei
5. Worgen
6. Tauren
7. Undead
8. Orcs
9. Trolls
10. Goblins
11. Dwarves
12. Gnome

So yeah....Orcs are definitely NOT the top played race...not even close. They're more popular than Dwarves, sure, but only by 1%....which isn't much.

[Rower]

The most horde popular races are blood elves and tauren.
Orcs are at the bottom now, since trolls became more popular in Cata.

Trolls are almost tied with Orcs now and probably soon will surpass them.

[Rower]

Back on the models topic, I hope that the tauren update will look like this new MoP faction, but with the classic tauren features. It would be soooo epic.

[Miacoda]

I've been waiting to turn into a stag and orca on my Druid for such a long time.... So thrilled!!!!

This! I can't wait! And I love the random colour thing, so I can keep my 'panda' look on my cow but still have chance to be a white kitteh

[Jelani]

Ok, I only skimmed the MMO champ info because I have to get ready for work but..AMG AOE LOOTING. And Garrosh taken down!! Is it Beta yet??

[Sukurachi]

wait... ONE new character slot?

dammit, they won't be going with the other idea of having no limit on which server you have your 50 toons?

ONE character slot, seriously, it sucks.

the other stuff is awesome...

but ONE character slot?

Yea, thats one thing that annoyed me...I would have adored the no limit within the 50 characters..

....Epic. Do. Want. Nao Pl0x.

[Arwyn]

-I'm actually floored by the female Pandaren. The model for them is pretty decent and Blizz gave them pretty good eyes.

-Also kinda thought Blizz would keep Garrosh around as Warchief a little longer since the focus of MOP is supposed to be the return of war among the Alliance and Horde. But it'll be interesting to see who replaces him.

Edit: watched the youtube video from Machinima Realm and found out who the replacememnt will be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PaM1T88 ... ure=colike
