    Personally, if the raid resembles anything like ICC - then I'll love it.

    Wow Zarhym. 'Take constant complaints from players paying you, belittle them for it.'
    Just because they're paying customers doesn't make their complaints any less monotonous, he's just callin' them as he sees them.

    Both factions got shitty leaders they didn't really like in Cataclysm, and I'm pretty sure we can all agree Garrosh is the worse of the two (Campfire 2012, et al.), yet you still have Alliance players trying to claim favouritism on this.

    It's ridiculous, and I'm surprised Zarhym didn't say something like this sooner.

    I like the sass. It's not offensive and it makes sense. If you go to Blizzard with a question filled with attitude, you should get a response with that same attitude. Don't understand where people forgot about the whole "treat people like you would like to be treated" moral viewpoint.
    Because they are paying for a service and somehow that makes them feel entitled to belittle and treat blizzard employees like crap when they are not happy with something, and those are the kind of customers, that no matter what you do, are never going to be happy.

    And that's pretty much everywhere. Decency and respect left the building a long time ago my friend in today's society.

    I for one, LOVE when they get an attitude. I can't imagine having their jobs, must be so damn annoying, having to put up with the bullshit of so many people on a daily basis.

    You know you can't expect to have millions of subscribers and not have people complain. No matter what they do there will be people who do not like it. Those people have every right to complain, and it's the Dev's responsibility to listen but choose what THEY want to do.

    Well, considering 90% of the feedback they're getting is people complaining for the sake of complaining (mind you, happy folk generally don't voice their content), I'm not surprised they're a little fed up.

    Cool, HoF just looks like a bunch of hallways like BoT but a different color. Way to be creative Blizz.

    Winning side in Vanilla and Wrath?! There was a Undercity Raid yes but the Alliance retreated and Undercity wasn't destroyed! And Vanilla didn't change anything, it was the beginning (of WoW). Of course the Humans had more towns than most of the other races but that has something to do with the Warcraft Lore...

    And the new LK ist the LK.. nothing else. As if he would support the Alliance with all his undead minions.. that will never happen so his past doesn't matter.

    I look at the screenshots and see nothing in common other than high ceilings and red. Possibly the pointed arches.

    So I'm guessing the Mantid are in the same family as Silithid or an evolved version of them. That raid looks like AQ40 but done by a more advanced species.

    I am amazed by how pathetic the blue's answers to lore questions are. Maybe Metzen was slippery in his exact phraseology. The passive aggressive tone towards the end is also hilarious and a massive cop out.

    Nope, they're complaining for what they perceive to be valid reasons. The blue's response is farcical.

    His response to a reasonable question and one which has scarcely received a proper answer was unprofessional, over the top and useless He isn't being belittled or "treated" like crap. And as for abuse Metzen receives, oh give me a break. So not everyone loves his treatment of the lore. Has Blizzard truly stumped so low as to treat anything that isn't congratulatory clap trap as "complaining"? Many, many players are very dissatisfied with the game's lore progression and it is a joke in a game with 12 races to put such focus on two that are blown out of all proportion in terms of their significance, especially compared to more ancient races in the setting as well as more powerful ones. It isn't a matter of a "natural progression" vs an active vision, because it pretty much is the natural progression of a rather actively nurtured vision.

    Nothing Zharym received was abusive. If he cannot control his patience, he should just ignore.

    Start trying to work out who deserves what, and before long you’ll spend the rest of your days weeping for each and every person in the world.

    Yeah, Bolvar's kind of a non factor for the time being. He's feigning the Scourge's collapse, and if he takes any side in the current conflict there's going to be another group knocking on Icecrown, and this time there won't be someone willing to take up the Helm.

    I can blame them, the fact they care so much about random shit talking and feel the need to be unprofessional is pretty weak.

    Also, I love the more intricate raids like Karazhan. It was an amazing 10m because the tower felt alive. It had kitchens, entertainment rooms, bedrooms etc etc. I realize massive war keeps don't need a ball room, but I think the small rooms that link off of hall ways and what not really make an instance feel like a place instead of auto walk and kill situation.

    That said, this raid looks really nice. I think the whole Manti thing is neat. I feel like I can see where this is going and I like it.
    Kara was a very good designed raid with some good lore, miss raids being like that and open aired one to boot.

    Give me my kara under side

    Paying money doesn't give you the right to continually spout off irrational complaints.

    The key here is irrational. Blizz says your complaints about the Alliance being shafted are irrational, and as a fellow Alliance player, I have to agree. I mean, look at his reasoning behind picking the spectral griffen as his avatar. THAT IS VALID REASONING, because you know for certain someone would have complained if he picked a spectral wyvern, whereas Horde players really don't give a shit that he went the other way with his avatar. The level of ridiculousness is, in many ways, showing the immaturity and uptightness of the Alliance playerbase.

    And I wanted so much to post an /inb4 butthurt posts about treating the Alliance poorly. Was already too late.

    For once I'd like to see a raid that doesn't involve huge empty hallways and chambers that look totally useless.

  18. #78
    So so far this place has been compared to AQ20, AQ40, BoT, BWD, ICC, and TK. That's a whole lot to copy from!

    And these comments asking for an open air raid are magical. The last raid of cata was open air and all people did was bitch about wanting to go inside a building!

    Why are people so dumb ?!?!? ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!
