Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Deleted]

What have I missed since yesterday at 12:00 (EU Lunch time?) anyone wants to update me?

[Paula Deen]

This kind of teasing only makes it more unlikely we'll see Tel'Abim. I doubt even he is allowed to tease future content as directly as that.

People STILL don't understand he is basically a paid troll. It astounds me.

[Nyel]

It's not just him either teasing south seas and pirates. I really don't think we're getting south seas at this point. I think KulTiras as a continent is looking more and more like a pretty safe bet as the jokes from them continue.

I mean: why not? We don't know what happened to Kul'Tiras. The argument that it's only a small island isn't valid because - as I said - we don't know what happened to KT in the last years. I think KT as a "continent" (+ some additional islands as patch content) can work if done right. Broken Isles worked - somehow - as well.

There is no indicator that KT and South Seas are or must be connected.

[Niwes]

have that strong feeling some sort of „the inner azeroth“ xpac it is. jules verne like. a whole new zone inside of azeroth, with nerubian stuff, dinosaurs, caves, etc, some titan places and some revamped „inner azeroth entry“ zones in classic world. didnt someone else with a mini leak talked about stuff like that?

next weekend this shit will be real.

Jaina shrouded Kul'Tiras with some magic curtain to hide it. Now she raises an army of sorcerers to fuck the Horde because of the past. The alliance however can't allow that and will be fighting Jaina alongside the Horde.

If that's going to happen I hope Jaina kills us all. The end.

I herd is banana time.

When is picnic basket time?

[Hitei]

A bunch of pages ago I listed out why I think KulTiras as a continent makes the most sense. I still do.

There's a bunch they can do with it. They can just not scale it down as much from lore as normal. It can still be as small on the chronicles map while still being massive enough for us to walk around in in game. Even if KulTiras was only like 10sq miles across. If that was a 1:1 ratio it would be bigger than Kalimdor in game.

No reason it can't happen. I kinda hope it does happen since then we could have a straight swashbuckling adventure expansion after it without getting bogged down in Jaina lore.

Right here buddy.

Oh so nise, picnic basket with human meat as side dish hummmm delocieus.

[thilicen]

But it doesn't have to be a continent. It can just be an island and still work. Broken Isles proved that in game size doesn't have to be consistent with lore size.

They don't even have to make it just Kul Tiras, could easilly use several islands or change up existing landmasses like they did with Cata.

[Nyel]

#TeamKulTiraswouldbeashittycontinent

You don't know that.

[Zoibert the Bear]

Your X-Ray powers might be a bit off. I have tauren flesh in that basket, though.

Might very well be, ursine x-ray technology ist still primitive.

Tauren meat is also taste sooooo good. If you can brings human cub (can be stolen) for dessert that'd be great. Would make the wait for Blizzcon bearable at least.

I wish people wouldn't bring up this argument. They're different things, and even beyond that, altering sacle once doesn't mean you should alter it again, way, way more drastically in order to make a completely unimportant and dull place viable for an expansion. You're not talking about doing a broken isles again, you're talking about scaling for something ~six times smaller.

The item squish worked fairly well, that doesn't mean an item squishing the numbers to 1/6 of that is a great idea.

Kul Tiras, even compared to the Broken Isles, is barely large enough to be one zone. It's so silly for it to suddenly be 6, and for Kul Tiras (the city) to be similar in size to Stormwind or Org, or Suramar or any large city, when Gilneas city would take up most of the Island.

not gonna happen with the anti-gambling rules.

Bullshit. Japan has far stricter anti-gambling rules and FFXIV does have a casino. All they have to do is use a special currency that can only be earned and spent IN the casino. Simple as that. It's time for Madam Goya to branch out.



EDIT: I see we are still debating the size of Kul Tiras. Next friday can't come soon enough.
