Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[rcshaggy]

Anyone know if that was Baine or not? Have they said?

Red Shirt Guy saying it was...
Baine, Nathanos, and Saurfang would be getting new models.

We already seen Saurfang's, but not Baine or Nathanos'.

Any chance to see any of the Horde Race Mounts?
I play Horde so it's the only reason I am asking.
Got to see them finally updating them.

Well here he is etc...
But is his group part of the Bloodsail Buccaners at all or another random new pirate group that made their home on the new zone for the other factionj?

From the sounds of his journal entry, he's not Bloodsail.

Well they did say and more and we are doing something with Chromie and the other flights at some point.

inb4 Dragonkin as an Ally Allied Race.

Well I also said a random pirate group as well.

Wonder on how the Blackwater Raiders and Bloodsail Buccers are doing...

I wonder on the status of Plunder Island. Wish that was asked at the Q&A. That would be a Red Shirt Guy moment if they forgot it existed and made it an Island Expedition site.

Wonder if Ogrezonia exists too, or is Blizzard ever deciding to add it.

I dunno with a name like Ogrezonia I want to believe it was a joke gone too far.

Unless it was in chronicle. I don't own chronicle.

I mean Horde can reclaim Lordaeron.

Nobody can bring back Teldrassil.

We'll need a whole lot of recompense.

Nah most folks assumed they were High Elves until this news came out.

Well, I mean, I guess we only know since reveal that this leak was the one(TM), but still.

Also, here's the definitive proof that allied races are coming in 7.3.5! Everything but Zandalari/Dark Iron

Be careful not to take his every word for bible. Even leakers get stuff wrong. Plans can change internally.

You can figure it out by just looking at allied races. Looks like Alliance will get factions from Argus and Horde our allies from Broken Isles (at least Highmountain and Suramar).

Be careful not to take his every word for bible. Even leakers get stuff wrong. Plans can change internally.

They really should introduce these 4 (or at least 2) subraces in 7.3.5. I don't think many will bother to level another char before subraces (I won't) and content drought is perfect time for this.

I think this may be their plan - in Legion content drought we will be encouraged to explore old world from live again, in BfA content drought they probably release Vanilla servers to fill our time.

You know, if Zul and Azshara are Tier 1 of BfA, and we assume N'Zoth is the final tier. Than it's a big question about what the mid-tier will be about. My only guess for now, is we'll see the formation of the Infinite Dragonflight, as foreshadowed by the Chromie scenario. I mean, we've seen their middle and end, out of order. We'll need to see their beginning at some point...

My usual pessimism says there is no mid tier, just like WoD.

My less salty flavor of pessimism says Sylvanas and N'Zoth are the final two tiers, order not decided.

Eh, I just don't see those Nightborne/Highmountain/Lightforged happening in BfA, would feel back to go back to the Broken Isles/Argus just when we left.

And at that point, Alliance also needs Void Elves or its unfair.

I would love if middle tier is side silly story this time. Something like new zone on Plunder Isle and pirate raid.

For last raid I don't really want N'zoth, but rather massive battle in some titan facility (maybe N'zoth prison) between Horde and Alliance with our raid team + Magni in the middle. By this time we would figure out that Azeroth is close to destruction and oppose both sides. And for final boss Greymane/Anduin and Sylvanas "council" fight when they both try to get our amulet infused with Azurite. In the end we would defeat them, use Heart to heal Azeroth, but - surprise! - it will instead corrupt Azeroth or release N'zoth (king of diamons has been made a pawn).

Introducing sub races right now doesn't make sense, at least the ones that were just announced. The only ones that would really make sense right now would be Highmountain Tauren, Nightborne, and maybe Lightforged Draenei. Void Elves wouldn't make sense right now because Alleria isn't "training" them yet, and Zandalari/Dark Iron is pretty obvious. There's also the fact that the description of these allied races talk about post-Argus things, which is where will still be in 7.3.5.

Seething Shores is also post-Argus and we get that in 7.3.5

I have no idea what Seething Shores is but I would imagine it'd make more sense than introducing allied races when they're joining factions after Argus, which, again, is where we will be in 7.3.5. If they do it, it'd make more sense if they were to do it in 7.4 to move the story along.
