Blizzard Trolling - April Fools!

[manypillars]

Goat simulator?
Draenei simulator!

A Mr. Crabby mini pet who comes with such overpowered abilities such as Nerf Bat and QQ.

I'm afraid I have to agree. It'll be a big disappointment like last time. They'll probably say they're very busy working on WoD that they won't really bother with april fools jokes.

The Web Developers don't develop the game, just as the Game Developers don't develop the web site.

WoD patch notes, and everyone will fall for it, and start a wave of QQ threads "OMG they are removing Gnomes!!!!!".

LMAO

That's along the lines of what a co-worker told me when I told him I thought it would be that WoD would be going live next week.

His response, "nope they will turn all gnomes into hobbits. And they will be free killable on all servers".

[Volitar]

They have no time for a april joke anymore, would cost an entire raid tier

They were like "OH DAMN THAT A GOOD EXCUSE LET'S KEEP USIN IT"

[Seditian]

Number of times that line has been used:

Blizzard: 1
Forum posters: Over 9000

It's getting old fast.

Knowing Blizzard though, they'll keep using it (not just the one, it's more already) 'till the end of times. Even though everyone is sick and tired of the expression. Like "Soon™".

Fake models

I hope they mix up some jokes with some real news this time around. Will make for interesting read.

Yikes. How are Blizzard supposed to please you people?

They make a joke: 'God, they're wasting expansion time on jokes!'

They don't make a joke: 'God, they're so lazy!'

[Deja Thoris]

I'd like them to swop the shrines around for a day. Horde one becomes alliance and vice versa. Much hilarity and qq would ensue.

[Cosmic Janitor]

Technically, it's free to play already

Because others paying for you and you repaying them in kind is free to play? Or do you talk about the awsome level 20 trial accounts? :P

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

World of Warcraft Offline Mode!

After the DDoS attacks on the European network infrastructure that services Blizzard games, that wouldn't be a bad idea IMO :/

[Enan1981]

Beta announcement... *smirk*

[lawow74]

Probably just Crabby again, since people complained they were 'wasting their time' on doing April Fools stuff.

[Baltasar]

Classic servers

[Mormolyce]

There's so much they could do this year - character models and Hearthstone and D3...

[Guyviroth]

"We apologize, but Blizzard will not be carrying on the tradition of April Fools jokes for this year. Please Understand™ that we have a lot of work ahead of us, and dedicating two hours of photoshop time would effectively be at the cost of a raid tier."

warlords beta.

[Agoonga]

They should release some actual news April 1st so nobody will believe it.

[Bender]

I don't think they'll do anything that looks even remotely like visual designer time was spent on it. The backlash of that would be insane and I think they know it. I expect some press releases with some mild photoshopping at most.

All non-human racial leaders replaced with moustached wisps.
