Patch 4.3 Preview - The All New Darkmoon Faire

[Hellfrog]

That island looks like its been made for 12 year old children If you ask me. Funny how only people with Ponys in their avatars like that here.

"That’s not all! We have adorable companion pets includin’ a fez-wearing monkey, a plethora of profession recipes, toys, balloons, souvenirs, delectable carnival snacks and beverages, heirlooms for the little ones"

Who needs that anyway? Aren't there enough pets, heirlooms & more garbage already in the game??

[Rawt]

I can't believe so many people are excited over this. To each their own, but it's this type of thing that has ruined the current state of the game.

[akts]

I would've preferred if they took more effort designing, say, 3rd troll dungeon or an 8th firelands boss. In my guild no one rerolled in cata. People I like to play with are happy (more or less, /hug shamans and paladins) with their classes. I repeat: not a single person of 30 or so that I know have seen those epic questlines. And I doubt they will.

[Fishfeast]

Not only are they recycling content, they're recycling the most boring content in the game. I can't believe people are excited about this.

[Harthmut]

Erm, really? How can you even say that without any word on actual content? The darkmoon faire is honestly a waste of resources, and I know this will just become another daily quest hub.

DMF has ALLLLLWAYS been dead, for YEARS.

Yeah and raiding is always the same, so... Yeah screw new content, bring in the fun!

[Cakka]

Sounds like this will the patch for WoW so far Can't for all the new dungeons, raids and quests, especially giving us like 13 new tier sets for all classes in one patch, I mean how can you beat that lol

[Claudir]

Is this seriously what they're spending their time on? What about adressing the massive PvP imbalance? What about giving things to people that's NOT just more rehashed content? I really worry about the direction in which Blizz is taking the game.

And since they only got one developer in the whole company its not possible that they are working on multiple things. Also all information about 4.3 is already out and there will be nothing else in it than the stuff announced so far. /rolleyes

I'm totally stoked - replicas of long-lost suits of armor that we’re offering for your Transmogrification needs. Yes please! I am sad with my 2/9 T3, WTB 9/9! Heck, I'd even settle for 8/9!

theres this awsome website http://roleplaygear.wordpress.com/

see, heres the thing for me

my main was a rogue and leather has always been ugly but it never bothered me until i started getting my darkmantle gear and ever since then i love trying out kilts, sure its a little strange for a guy to like it as much as i do. i can admit that, but i just consider it part of the fun of the game.

i know most people only care about content and you really should stop playing.

im not gonna go into addictive personalities and ruined lives but if youre always chasing that high like a crackpipe, stick to games with endings

Don't get me wrong, I love those transmorify announcements. I don't really fancy DMF but I certainly don't mind it at all. Yet I have the feeling that those features are made at the cost of RAID CONTENT. Feeling =/= truth, but nontheless I'm worried. And I have a damn good reason to be worried: firelands and it's 7 bosses. Is there a possibility that without so much effort spent on the molten front dailies there could've been a larger raid? Who knows. And I would trade that boredom front and zandalari dungeons for a couple of extra raid bosses in FL.

Is there a chance that this new DMF will come at a cost of a sub-par raid instance?

There are so many hints in this description that make me think this patch will release at about the same time as Blizz Con. That way they can elaborate a little more on the statement "the deals we made to get it… or who we made ‘em with". I bet they made this deal with the pandaren. Either that or blizzard is aware of the negative reaction to Pandas and they are trolling us. It could go either way.

[UnknownShadows00]

you wouldn’t believe the deals we made to get it… or who we made ‘em with.

This quote. Purple architecture. Misty, shady environment and attitudes. ...This can only mean one thing. CHUCKIE CHEESE IS IN WORLD OF WARCRAFT!

Ppl complaining about another rehashed content should look at the bright side of this, we're almost out of classic content that can be rehashed ;-)

[ScottsdaleHokie]

Wow, kiss another 500,000 subs goodbye.

[rockdontroll]

this will only be worth it if the faire gives out ilvl 305 or something as its top prize

[Cldmani]

We have adorable companion pets includin’ a fez-wearing monkey, a plethora of profession recipes, toys, balloons, souvenirs, delectable carnival snacks and beverages, heirlooms for the little ones, and even replicas of long-lost suits of armor that we’re offering for your Transmogrification needs.

Could this possibly mean that we'll finally be getting our hands on the heirloom pants?

Great.The less complaining noobs will play wow, the better this game will be

[Idletime]

In the end, SWTOR will fix it. And possibly D3, if they don't screw that up. Another MMO this year tried to fix it, but they didn't really. I'm mostly upset that they are trashing the old DMF system - my two Insane characters are the most upset. I've been visiting there monthly since they introduced it along with BWL. This place offered so much and will be missed.

[Buckluck]

This seems awesome! I've never been really too big about the DMF but I might be now!

Nobody notice all the hints to pandaria in this?

What do you mean?

[Nodrim]
