Blizzcon 2014, Setup of the Month, Dark Legacy Comics #431

[Abbzow]

I'm going to bet wild and say an announcement for Warcraft 4.
There...I said it.

[Tisane]

Is it only me who feels like Blizzcon happened only a few weeks ago?

[Deleted]

a much better site for pc parts: http://www.logicalincrements.com/

if you are only interested in WoW performance: http://www.logicalincrements.com/games/wow/

A cash cow that runs at a loss for them? Yeah, ok

You think it runs at a loss for them? I strongly doubt it.

Not only do they make significant ticket receipts from BlizzCon, they also get a number of other benefits from sponsorship, advertisements etc that don't immediately appear in any total.

Unless you believe whatever they say...

Looks like they updated their Legal Documentation page for 2014.

http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/company/legal/

Has a 2014 copyright down the bottom.

Also this pages lists :

Battle.net End User License Agreement
Battle.net Terms of Use
BlizzCon 2013 Virtual Ticket <----------------------------- this links to the web page given

Lastly the only mention on the page itself is the title and the copyright down the bottom which appears to be generic to any page in the legal documentation. The page itself doesn't appear to be updated for 2014.

You are absolutely right...ya know lets not listen/trust/hear whatever a company says...a company that will have to live up to its standards, its legacy as game defining company on different genres.....and if that's not your kind of bs, they have to live up for the shareholders and how well it preforms and pleases to stay in the market....cause when it screws up big time it will sink so fast and they know it, and how they have to balance between creativity, income and quality...

Instead lets listen trust some stark raving anonymous hater/fan-boy lunatics on some fan site stating opinions as facts.....more credible...sheesh...

Are you entirely sure on that or are they making money?, they might not have a huge profit on it but they most certainly are making money and probably a small profit on it with all those tickets they can sell.

It's been confirmed that they lose money on the event some time ago.

[Crazozourus]

or it might be all about WoD very close to its release if the realease will be in Decemeber

Hahaha. That would be a blast.

[Deleted]

I will never understand some of these setups. Buy 1500$ awesome computer - Leave shitty onboard sound and buy crap speakers?

[Crazozourus]

I am looking forward to WoD because it is difficult for them to shoe-horn in another troll raid this time. I am sure blizzard will find a way

In an incredible twist, they will convert Zul'Aman and Zul'Gurub back in to the raid for new epic adventure.

Yep.. I don't understand 4770k + GTX 770 combo..
I'd save $100 on the CPU and change to GTX 780 with that budget >.>

[roahn the warlock]

Blizzcon? Lol for what? Titan? they scrapped that when they realized people would pay the price of a AAA to skip leveling.

It will suck, calling it now

[Deleted]

So... First look at Titan anyone? I guess they won't set up a Blizzcon for only a SC2 expansion and I don't see them releasing anything else except for a new game... Like Titan. Well, I'm stoked for Blizzcon already

People are still putting DVD drives in new PC's? lame haha. I just built mine and I never plan on wasting money to have a DVD drive when they are used for nothing important now, assuming you download everything and USB storage which most people do..

[Woa]

Can someone tell me why mmo champion has a setup of the month? Everyone whos building a system can do that. Its called research. Anyone planning on building a pc will not come to mmo champion for advice if theyre smart. Its wasted space. Ive been building my own pcs for a good 16 years and i dont think this helps anyone. No one wants a puppy or a dolphin. Please stop, no one who is capable of building their own computer cares. Chaud person is not some amazing computer tech person. Anyone can look this stuff up and come to their own conclusion and probably save more money on their own. Please stop trying to be tomshardware. The only reason for posting that stuff is trying to make an extra buck off someone who clicks your link to buy something.

Because blizzard has gone dead silent since they put out WoD pre order.

Some of us have old games and movies we like to enjoy from time to time.

That is what the internet is for, you can find anything and everything you need.

Their standards and their legacy?

Where was that forum post from a year ago talking about never selling power-leveling?

Or any post they've ever done about wanting to get content out faster?

They've clearly always been completely honest and upfront.

It's not like a multi-billion dollar company would have any reason to lie.

I doubt a few lies here and there would disappoint shareholders as long as the money keeps rolling in.

If you even consider about great sound you need to go with sound card not with already mobo sound something like asus ROG line bringing...
