Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Seramore]

Also we have literally all day and night for a build. It isn't unknown for them to sometimes push a build late at night.

[Ningjinq]

To be fair, if one lives in Europe or further east, it almost is tomorrow.

[Syegfryed]

Apparently Zandalari Males are pretty short. I really don't like that...

and didn't have the heel-toe like the females and other normal trolls

with those 2 things alone will make me tay with normal darkspear trolls for ever.

Next public build will come when they are ready to release new content for testing. What else reason would they have to push builds into public?

to please MMO-Champion of course!

Last week they pushed a build without adding new content to test.

Thats exactly what we are waiting for. So, thanks for stating the obvious?

I believe those that have access to alpha should give a feedback through game and on forums, it shouldn't be left out.

of course they imply the feeling of "An Alpha/Beta Phase is for testing for errors and bugs", but they also have to manage the "hype". Many streamers are stopping to stream the Alpha Servers because the lack of Content right now, they all have showcased the two zones, two dungeons and class changes until vomiting. We also see here in the Thread the "hype" is going down and we are drifting up into pages and pages of offtopic about stuff noone cares. Somehow the Alpha/Beta Phase is PR to Blizzard, and they know it, otherwise they would hold a NDA or something. Just my humble opinion...

Pushing new builds isn't always about new content, if anything it could bug fixes & maybe even a more stable build or simply adding more stuff to the client in general to be activated later.

But if more zones and dungeons aren't in working condition, they can't do shit. Releasign unplayable builds isn't much better than not releasign anything at all.

The current content is pretty bugless for an early alpha. They don't seem to be in any hurry to push hard bugfix builds right now.

[Ningjinq]

They may want to make sure it’s stable for adding more players as so few have Alpha right now.

I’d be surprised if they couldn’t release more dungeons if they wanted to. Some of the vids of some dungeons looked quite complete (obviously without mobs but still, they looked visually finished)

Underrot and Tol Dagor in particular.

oh fuck, i've spent 2220.95 since 2013

[TriHard]

I don't even want to know how much I've spent on WoW.

[Ticj]

I don't even want to know how much I've spent on WoW.

So let's assume you started in May 2011.

Sub Fees: Assuming you were subbed monthly since May 2011... $1230

Expansion Pack costs: WoW Base Game + TBC and Wrath = 50$ (something around here?)
Cataclysm + MoP + WoD + Legion $150

So around $1500

[Whatever Dude]

I've probably given them 3-4k. Don't regret it one bit lol. WoW is the best.

[axi0m]

I started on launch day, never let my sub lapse and had 2-3 subs running at one point. Rip me.

[Hammerzeit]

Been subbed since 2007 without any cancellation of sub. Not to mention the OW skins lmao

I started in February 2005, though I've had many breaks
