What do you guys think, too much, or a great change?

[Rhyela]

I don't really like it, to be honest. Maybe I'll have to see it in-game for myself, but WoW is more fantasy to me. But I guess we already have motorcycles and helicopters and rockets and all that.....I dunno. I'm skeptical, let's put it that way.

Honestly Rhyela, I actually agree with you. It;s almost like butchering the game to make it more modern. However, Azshara WAS butchered by goblins, so in a way it makes sense. I'll probably only be visiting that place once in a blue moon, if I feel like gathering a group of blood elves and making our own version of 90210. Seriously. xD

But they're totally butchering my erp areas. >_>



j/k


Edit: I just realized they're unsurfacing that old god in darkshore. Oh noes.

[Nikrosnil]

Which old god?

[Chrizesu]

Which old god?

[Nevar]

Do wants crocolisks!!!! And Ashenvale will not go down without a fight! /Alliance salute!

[Vephriel]

I think I'll actually like this.

I would not want these sort of 'modernized' additions throughout the whole game, but isolated into one Goblin area is actually a fun little feature and I'll probably go there just to hang out a lot.

[Saturo]

Hmm... We just need a bit more love for gnomish tech now. TBH, the cars seem more like a gnomish invention. Rockets or something would seem more fitting for goblins, but ah well...

[Ryno]

DO WANT.

Lol, what would their ability be? Slime attack? xD

[Ryno]

No no, it's more like, consecrate, but they leave a trail of it. So any mob that walks where it's been will take a small amount of damage.

Also generates a lot of additional threat.

"Eww... LITTLE F@#$ER!!"

There is a bunch of new Screenshots up on Mmo Champion that where just put up a couple minutes ago.

It breaks my heart to see Auberdine like that. :( It's one of my favourite quest hubs in all of Azeroth and I have a ton of lovely memories from there.

[Adam-Savage]

Live Stream going on right now.

[Mania]

The lives stream is from a private server, yes? (I mean something that person is running themselves, not the alpha/beta server.)

Also, I apologize for being a buzzkill, Ryno, but I replaced your file with a link. Last I saw Blizzard is maintaining the NDA, although they look like they probably won't cause a fuss about these leaks -- I'm sure they expected this. But I'd rather not have any files from the leak hosted here.

[Arwyn]

Just saw the updated pics of the Western Plagueland and it looks like the efforts of all those players to neutralize the Plague Cauldrons finally paid off.

[Mania]

I was briefly very excited by these jellyfish: http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/ima ... les_05.jpg

But to be there in the static world they must not be beasts.

[Vephriel]

Aw, you're right Mania. I hadn't thought of that at first. They might just be non-targetable details or pieces of scenery.
