World First - BoD - Offical Thread

i'm sure you are perfectly qualified to make this comment

maybe because it was the fucking weekend and people have lives outside of catering to 20 people playing your game in an extreme edge scenario?

i really hope they deploy this hotfix in a working state soon so that the rest of us aren't locked into this stupid zerg strat

Only 100 posts on reddit and over 20 posts in forums blockade, opulance fights got bugged after the hotfix. Oh look fights works as intended now they reverted the fix on jaina. Your quallified raider affected by the bug progressing on blockade when the bug occured.

[Sting]

No the real problem is a very tiny negligible part of the player base being entitled children. Who kills Jaina first isn't going to make or break anything for Blizzard at all. It does not matter in the slightest and the fact that people like Lorgok think they're doing Blizzard some huge favor by streaming the progress is silly.

Yes I'm sure Blizzard is very unhappy about all the free exposure they're getting on Twitch this weekend. Hell, maybe they actually are with how broken the raid is.

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
oh you silly boy.

Ran out of arguments already? Pity.

[LDancer]

Seeing the fight in Heroic usually sells you 90% of the encounter. Unless there is some huge difference between Heroic and Mythic (like Argus), top raid guilds are prepared for nearly everything already.

I would like to see how these guys go in a raid they’re seeing for the first time...

You just have to watch footage of their testing when they’re already noting what classes they can use to cheese mechanics, what they will handle xyz mechanics, and what stray they’ll play around with...

I’m not saying these guys aren’t good, I just want to see these world first guilds all race in a raid that they’ve no prior experience with... on heroic or not.

[Monstermash]

Yeah, and when do they fix it? Do they do it during raiding hours? Is it US or EU raiding hours? Is it server restards? So Limit gets 'harder' boss while Method can try to squeeze a kill before that? You'd complain no matter what.You almost make it sound like Blizzard CEOs aren't losing sleep over which 20 people will kill a raid boss first. Surely that's the most important thing they could be thinking about - not like there was some major sport event or whatever.

Let's be real.

He wouldn't be complaining if Limit was the one that got shafted by the change.

He would be here telling Limit fans to quit complaining and to grow up.

[Obsession]

Yeah I saw that, so he's mad that this fix is really a "buff" and will infact make Jaina impossible to kill the first reset, which means Limit will be able to snag a world first by having an earlier reset.

So really his anger goes back to what everyone has been talking about this entire thread, the NA 16H advantage.

zerg strat benefits limit even more because they get extra gear first. despite what you'd like to think, a 12% wipe isn't actually that close.

... You're seeing exactly that. Because, you know, no one tested Mythic Jaina on PTR.

"Exposure". Just lol.

That depends on whoever that person is cheering for. But either way, someone gets screwed by the hotfix.

The problem with that is that Blizzard uses the PTR for beta testing their encounters. Every top guild does the playtests and while some encounters are literally unplayable on PTR it gives atleast a good idea for a general strategy.

[Vynestra]

I agree with monstermash, if it were limit getting screwed everyone would be saying the opposite things.

It's all about who you are rooting for.

"Exposure". Just lol.

And another one out of arguments

[ZackIsBack]

100k viewers currently on twitch.
Traction and exposure to/with people from other games/esports.
The only time any thread in mmo-champion is alive.

White knights ironically posting in the very same thread that noone cares about WF, only affects 0.1% of the playerbase and the similar typical bullshit.
You guys are so right man, devs deserved to watch some superbowl during the weekend. Who cares this is the only time their dying game gets attention, as long as store mounts get released on time we cool.

[heyoyayo]

The real problem there is that the devs don't care about their own game anymore.

Imagine not bothering to work for one of the most important weekends your game will see this year.

stop being so senile.. You do realize that all passion projects have been scientifically researched to lose said passion after 4 years? Look at any game, ever. Passion gets lost. Care stops being given.

At this point, its just people working and doing a job. And not so many people like work/jobs.

[Bjay]

Why does it have to be someone and not both guilds getting screwed by the fix? Are you guys watching us? It's all speculation anyways, don't read too far into this post

No, we're not watching you guys cuz you're too chickenshit to stream.

[WhatIsLegion]

And another one out of arguments

The fact that you think a company as big as Activision Blizzards cares about, let alone needs 90kish viewers from this race says all anyone needs to know about conversing with you. You're starting to sound just as entitled as Lorgok now. I'd put money that Limit's faction changes made more money for Blizzard than Method's streaming exposure will generate them. Yes, it's that low of an amount.

[Varjo410]

The "fix" has already been changed back anyway so it's all a moot point now anyways.

Implying I should be happy Activision suits are replacing the game company I grew up with? LULW

It's okay buddy back to pet battles you go

It's okay buddy, reply back and have the last word, I'll let you have it. It's clear you need this W in your life.

[Sting]

By the looks of it the hotfix has been reverted.

There is zero traction for this WF and even the G'huun world first race.

Once it was over the numbers went straight down. Sco and other streamers didnt retain the numbers they had during the race. Its all flash in the pan and people clear out once it is over.
