Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Jodmos]

yeah, but mostly in streams where he said stuff conflicting with other interviews. Good to get a clear answer where most of the community is watching / will watch a recap of

I think the attendees wouldn't necessarily have the info from those so that's why some got asked.

[Chickat]

The broken isles.

They dont look like the broken isles do in game.

[Phinx]

What happened to Tom Chilton, by the way? Did they Dave Kosak him?

[Shadochi]

Yeah he's good looking, but I suspect it's because the other members of the team aren't so that plays in his favour! But still, I don't know, he's very nonchalant in his answers and I'm not a fan of that. My favourites are Kosak and Brode on the HS team, they're lovable! And Ion is my special awkward big-cock-nerd.

Fixed that for ya

[Jodmos]

Yeah he did not look well. He looked a bit pale yesterday and he looks quite more pale and very sweaty today

That's what I thought. Looked a bit drained.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

I still have my authenicator. Think I had it since Wrath.

What happened to Tom Chilton, by the way? Did they Dave Kosak him?

He switched to a new project inside Blizz.

[Caerule]

My god that Q&A was terrible. Especially the online part. They left 9 minutes for 1000s of good submitted questions. Asked one question twice. Asked 4 already answered in other panels and interviews.

Honestly this has been the most disappointing Blizzcon ever for me. I really liked the trailer. Was down with a few other things. But man, I loved last year's, and there wasn't even a new expansion pack. I'm just so... underwhelmed.

[Deleted]

Yep, definitely feel like we didn't get as much to chew on this time around, so the wait will be difficult, even with Antorus rolling around.

Yeah it was basically empty on dungeon and raid information, professions, and so on. Usually they take us through a couple of those, show us some cool screenshots and a few boss/item examples. Let's not even mention how little information we got on class changes. I'm used to BlizzCon being all like: "HIT CHANCE... GONE!"

Woopsie.

Working on their new project.

[Valysar]

"When is beta ?" The eternel question without answer

[Shadochi]

They dont look like the broken isles do in game.

check the Broken isles on the world map (not the continent map) and compare it (i did it this morning)

[Aeluron Lightsong]

And now the hardest raid boss of all.


PATIENCE

[Shadochi]

@Marlamin any idea on what to expect from the boss panel?

[Phinx]

So, what's the next stage of this hype thread? 500+ pages worth of discussion about whether to call it Alpha or Beta? maybe throw Gamma in there for the lulz?

[Jodmos]

Did I miss it or did he not actually answer the gold guy's question about item drops in the new scaled zones (the one about mob level 63 item drop not being available on scaled mob)

[Marlamin]

Previously had some WoWEdit stuff. Hoping for that again. We'll see.

Ion beat him in the Vol de Tort competition so he had to step down.

Generally we get renamed to Alpha/Beta thread. MMOC mods are holding off on that for now due to the thread's size causing issues. Chaud said he'll figure out what to do with it next week.

Ion dat alpha nerd.
