And also, lol Gollum orcs!

Dont ask for that you idiot,we need more mount variations to fill up our mount collection! Besides these are supposed to be the Talbuks of before time aka TBC so of course they will look different.

But im super happy for these boar and clefthoof mounts,all i need now is Bunny mounts and Spider Mounts and im happy!

None of the bystanders asked for this, in fact, this makes you an even bigger insensitive clod, congrats. Don't reproduce etc.

If you wanna spoil stuff, send some PMs to each other

Azeroth/Outland needs some better trained blacksmiths! 10 years ago, blades and weapons were finely crafted items. straight, sharp and mirror polished.

Now, almost every blade found looks like it was carved/chipped out by 6 year old Neanderthals!

(I'm referring to the new icons, btw)

I say Blackhand looks like Garrosh in Deathwings armor.

Well for Grom dont forget Garrosh is older than Thrall and Grom is Garrosh's father as well as Durotan is Thralls Father. As for Blackhand His sons killed Durotan in current Azaroth and when you encounter them they are pretty old so Im guessing Black hand is pretty old to and probably not likely to be alive today without some sort of mechanical or magical aid.

-Why is Blackhand the Deathwing version of Orcs?

Dude, he's leader of the BLACKROCK ORCS who live in a mountain filled with lava and iron as they enslaved other races and crafted obsidian armor and fearsome weapons for the Black Dragonflight and the Orcish Horde (now the Iron one) war machine. Lava and Iron is his thing! more than it was DW. The guy is a a completely badass blacksmith.

...or Garrosh, coming from our timeline, could've simply killed alternate Thrall as soon as he was born because of his experience with Thrall here. Probably what I'd do if I were him, just in case.

The horde stagnated for years after the destroyed the draenei. at this point in time Durotan and Draka wouldnt have had a baby yet.

where you think thrall got his eye color from? :P

Thrall seems unfinished. Where are the long braids? He had a little more hair up top before too... now just a standard pony tail. Or has he been wearing that hoodie because he is balding? Compared to Velens new model.... Thrall seems incomplete.

It's a closed F&F Alpha.

It is called "beta", despite it being the alpha version, because that's what Blizzard labeled the files as.

Sigh....it's called a Top-knot, and it's something that the orc Blademaster's in WC3 had(inspired by Japanese samurai). It's part of Thrall getting in tune with his heritage. Thrall is dropping his titles of Warchief and World-shaman to go on a quest of self-discovery, so it fits PERFECTLY. It's my favorite change to his model(beyond losing the hood) by far.

looking forward to the Gul'Dan model considering the awesome look of Blackhand. I hope he gets an equally cool model.

haha the maps look nearly identical to Outland currently. Grats on paying $49.99 for your patch.

If the new Draenei look anything like Velen... jizz.

Thrall looks even more epic than before.

I hear your local optometrist can get your eyes checked for free LOL.

anybody know when some more info will be datamined?

I want to know what that big ass dragon skeleton is behind the portal lol.

Also, Im wondering if Thrall will be the hero we know he is today. Remember, it was his trials and ordeal he faced while being enslaved by Blackmoore after he killed Thall's parents. Without that, would Thrall still become the hero/diplomat/warrior/warchief/etc that we know? Will be interesting to see how his story plays out.

Or will there be 2 thralls? One from this world that chased Garrosh back through the portal and the one that was born and raised on Draenor...actually there could be 2 of a lot of people for that matter.

Why Thrall did not hump? I like, no hump orcs.

If i recall correctly we go back to before thrall was born and his parents killed, there won't be 2 thralls.. Atleast not for the time being.

Thrall is too human-like. He could benefit from more hair and more armor pieces instead of this trench coat totally out of place (Clint Eastwood, anyone?).

No Thrall! WHY YOU CUT YOUR HAIR!
