Warning for Beta Participants
There are some places in Cata that are a no go. You die if you go there, get stuck, or end up in trouble. Here's a catlogue of a few, and anymore are found, or if they've cleared, post and let me know!
Moonglade: Reports ahve shown if you teleport to Moonglade, you'll be stuck on the loading screen. Logging does nothing, and you obviously can't portal, hearth, anything. This has been a lasting bug, however. If it's been fixed, I don't know.
Wintergrasp: I discover this nasty bug myself. Flying over it on a taxi mount caused me to DISMOUNT the bird, swim, and then die. Immediately. Release spirit and get rezzed. Try to fly on ym bronze, keap over the hill....and Mister. Bronze refuses to take off. Trying to taxi fly again causes me to die in mid air. Solution was to ask spirit healer to port me to the hold, where I fled to Violet Hold and escaped, fine.
The Maelstrom: This one seems pretty recent. Character zones in and dies. Releasing spirit causes you to die. Again. Repeat this, and you will die, over, and over. Auto-unstuck does not work. And there is no way, once up, to do anything before you are killed. (It's a good two, three seconds before you are killed.)
Edit: Palla offered a suggestion if you get stuck: Auto-unstuck and release RIGHT as the timer goes off. You should, if it works, get out just fine. If you don't have a hearthstone though....
Darkshire: Gala reports that if you hearth to the inn in Darkshire, you can get stuck underneath it. However, this is fixable. You jump up until your head pokes into the inn, and then auto unstuck.
Theramore: Another report by Gala: There is a part in the NW part (For a quest) where your fatigue part will randomly pop up. It won't go away and only way of fixing it is jumping.
Moonglade: Reports ahve shown if you teleport to Moonglade, you'll be stuck on the loading screen. Logging does nothing, and you obviously can't portal, hearth, anything. This has been a lasting bug, however. If it's been fixed, I don't know.

You can get out of the Malestrom, but it takes timing. Auto-unstuck, then release JUST before the timer is up. It'll hearth you to where ever your hearth stone is set.

Re: Warning for Beta Participants
Leave it to blizz to build an entire zone out in the middle of the ocean and forget to remove "fatigue". 
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.

Oh! Good to know! Tried it out and it worked fine. *cheers*

Re: Warning for Beta Participants
Well, I found one place in Dustwallow Marsh that's a no go...it's not that you get stuck or anything, it's an area NW of Theramore that you need to go to for a quest, but when you get there your fatigue bar keeps coming up, and the only way to stop it is by jumping randomly!
Also, another thing I found was if I HSed to the inn in Darkshire, my char would get stuck underneath it...you have to jump up the sdie of the wall with your character until their head in in the inn, then use auto unstuck

Re: Warning for Beta Participants
Walking off of a cliff without a slow fall or parachute effect is bugged ATM. It kills you pretty much all the time.

Re: Warning for Beta Participants
The WG thing is just flying in general in WG... you can however rez at the Spirit Healer and then click the BG emblem on your mini-map to be ported to Dalaran... at least you could do this before the last patch... haven't looked since.

Re: Warning for Beta Participants
Queueing for Wintergrasp or Tol Barad will take you out of the maelstrom when the battle is about to start.
Re: Warning for Beta Participants
Yeah, WG didn't start for another good 2 hours, and queueing for anything else didn't work. And of course, you'd have to hearth out before you left, otherwise you'd be stuck again. xDUndra wrote:Queueing for Wintergrasp or Tol Barad will take you out of the maelstrom when the battle is about to start.
