Halion US First Kill, Blizzcon 2010 Charity Dinner

[JohnnyTKF]

lol bro... u fail... and im not smart?

wow is dying.. face it... and RS is prove of it... HM downed in what... less then 10 hours?

Pleasing as much as possible? With allr over 80 % of the player base not content, even if servers are still offline?

Making millions of dollars... ye, im sure they did that once.. and maybe still now, by milking this game to the max with

all these stupid pets / mounts / char possibilities. As said, wow is dying... milking it to the next big MMO

So ye... blizz, u fail... or do i actualy fail for still paying ur sorry ass for extended maintenances and shitty new content.

Is this realy the best you can come up with....

God, sometimes I wish I could just shoot you in the face, dumbass... Just so you know it, MMO-champion is a MINIMAL fraction of the WoW pop, how do you know 80% of the WoW pop hates Wrath? Exactly, you don't... Made up facts FTW amirite asswipe? I just HATE people like you (Inb4 UMADBRO? :P) who make facts up, can't you just say the truth and admit you need a break from WoW? That's it, no need to make crap up.

blizzcon dinner is a scam first they let you win a change to get the tickets then you need to buy them for 500 bucks that got to children

if blizzard wants to make an impression the use the 100.000 dollar (500$ x 200 tickets) to buy those children a pc with wow installed on it

For the love of all that is holy, tell me you're trolling. Christ.

[Faceless]

Grats on the World First Kill Premonition. Even though most many claim that you don't deserve it, you did kill Halion first. It doesn't matter what kind of handicap anyone recieves, the first kill will always be recorded by whoever kills it first. The advantage may have been in Premonition's favor, but they clearly killed it first regardless. As for the content not lasting, it's only natural for the content not to last when you rush out and try to be among the first to complete it. That's how it is on any game when they add new content. If you rush out and play through it as fast as you can it's gonna go quick. If you need more of a challenge then take undergeared players or take off some of your gear to make it harder. Good luck to everyone on running the new raid and I hope you can enjoy it as much as I will.

As for the benefit, good luck with it Blizzard. I won't be putting my money into it as $500.00 is too expensive for my budget, but I'm sure someone out there will find the food tasty enough for the money. I wouldn't mind recieving the Blizzcon Ticket, and being able to converse with the Developers is nice, but it's far from worth it to me. Overall, I wish them the best on this event and hope that they do well with it.

Blame the players being able to test out everything on the PTR, and have it down pat when the content goes live. Very little mystery left in WoW anymore.

[xenoie]

This game is getting way too easy when new bosses die the first day they hit live. Content is being watered down so hard that it has lost it's epic feel. It used to take months for a well accomplished guild to get a first kill on a boss, now it takes a few hours on release day?

I guess there are hard modes, but what is this a FPS game now?

MMORPG on nightmare mode lol...please...

lol so you've downed heroic LK and heroic RS? if youre going to whine about something at least whine without giant gaping holes in your logic. The only ppl who can whine are those ppl in premo and Adept...the only 2 guilds to clear it so far

[Toxonuts]

Guys: This wasn't exactly supposed to be Heroic LK quality in the skill/organization aspect. This was released, in my opinion, to let the more casual players get some gear.. Now, I'm not saying that every guild and their gay sister will down H Halion, but I do feel it has much less skill req., seeing as people downed it first day (people took months?? to down heroic LK).

[Documentor]

The guys who are the best at this game WILL clear new content crazy fast. Most of us should not judge ourself or any others by that standard.

Also, it will be interesting to check the time from when the US realms got RS unlocked and cleared against the time EU realms came online. That way we can FAIRLY gauge who really got the 'world first'. These elite guilds make getting there first a big deal and one would hope that they want an honest victory, not a victory because half the competition weren't allowed to start.

Well, just killed it 10-man (due to server troubles leading to canceled 25man raid), and well... it was ok difficulty, about the same as later bosses in ICC. The trash was hitting the tanks a bit hard but not too bad, about the same style trash as OS. The mini bosses are a joke. The boss itself was easy enough, got it as soon as we figured out to have everyone following behind the orbs.

So, easy enough, but not really PUG friendly, until they nerf the orb beams (ie. "oops the orbs werent meant to do that on normal mode...")

Hopefully we'll do the hard mode next week, and the 25man tomorrow.

[Kiro]

Considering many world firsts come down to who can get their guild together online first, and with some RNG luck, I don't see the big deal with them in the first place. But it seems to mean a lot to people who never seemingly are in the guilds with the world firsts. Anyways, on that note:

Congrats Premonition on your WORLD FIRST KILL. They'll be going into Cata with momentum from closing out Wrath with the WORLD FIRST kill in the final raid of this expansion. Good for them. Cata is going to really shake things up due to 25man raids not being the only show in town, and 10 man guilds finally getting respect.

[Brittany]

Anyone else think it was rubbish to hold it back a week or two until EU got it for "world first race", then to give it to US one day early?

Why not just let them have it from the start. World firsts are not important when the boss can be killed on hard mode a few hours after release. It's just who has the best connections and guildies available.

[Solex]

The amount of QQ from EU players is staggering, I always thought they were more well mannered than most of the US players and given that they tend to start an hour or two on every raid boss (DAMN YOU EARTH'S ROTATING AXIS) I figure if the EU servers got 1 to 3 hours per new raid content since Vanilla, yeah the US is probably due about 24 hours head start. (Joke)

I also think a lot of posters talking about how insignificant a WORLD FIRST KILL in game supposedly boasting 11 million subscribers are the same people who would be verbally fellating Ensidia or your favorite EU raiding guild of choice.

In short, gratz to Premo, better luck next time to ALL the raid guilds (surprise there was 24 hour maintenance in the US too) who couldn't get into the fight in time. Good job Blizzard for saving kids or whatever and... yeah, cry less.

[petrefax]

It used to take months for a well accomplished guild to get a first kill on a boss

This is simply not true, content has always been cleared in a matter of days by "well accomplished" guilds

Troll Cat and bear form; ugly as sin.

edit: lol first video had 100,000 views just from being on MMO-C for like 5 hours before I had to take it down to fix :3

Original song in the first version before I had to edit stuff:

I wish I could throw a dictionary at you people.
A world first means you are the first people in the world to do something regardless of whether or not the rest of the world has the opportunity to do that something. Since Premonition are the first people in the world to kill Halion they achieved the world first.
