Azeroth Choppers Discussion Thread (All Azeroth Chopper Discussion here, thanks)

A Horde-themed mount going into the Horde-themed expansion? Say it ain't so!

Come on, even Mr. Magoo saw this coming. As soon as they announced that it was going to "voted" on, I knew which bike was going to be in the game.

[Lochton]

In the end, the murlocs win again.

Pfff.. Murlocs ain't gonna stop that Ch-... hey.. where did my wheel go?

ahh yeah just like some damaged armor sort of style would have looked amazing , with a bit less chrome

Indeed, battleworn, steel look. Maybe the Alliance symbol in bronze and chrome. But else, yes, armor look. Of course some knights had very shiny armor for show off but never used in battle, and the Alliance are really a people who's seen a good amount of wow. (as well as many of the Horde)

I only think the surprising thing was people thinking the alliance bike would win, lol.

Well, of course there is people who would think it. It's about voting and hoping enough is joining the cause of what you select. I thought less would go for the Horde one because it was a trike, another trike.

[TheEaterofSouls]

They really need to make a recolored version of this bike for the other faction, or make it account bound. My main guild is alliance so not having the option of using it on both factions would piss me off. Seriously, this isn't an issue of faction, but an issue of who gets more content. Not making it account bound is like giving a middle finger to the other half of the player base...

[Flutterguy]

Sadly, no chopper was actually made in this so called chopper contest. All I see is a trike and a snow mobile.

[wow2011]

Are people really upset over this? Really?

/facepalm

To vent my anger, I now have to go grief some horde on timeless.

[Zenny]

Of course the horde won. Those inbred fucktards outnumber the alliance. They win everything.

Keep it civil please.

Actually the opposite, Alliance outnumber Horde. But don't let a thing like facts keep you from your hateboner.

Isn't that based on characters created? Maybe alliance just make more alts.

[Bullettime]

I had no worries. The Horde are just better in-game and out. Be jelly when I ride by you, Alliance.

What's that? I can't hear you over the winning bike.

If only Blizzard actually gave us a reason to be proud of our faction.

[wow2011]

The jealous tears in this thread are funny. Just accept defeat, Alliance...like you always have.

I hope you play on Ner'zhul. My buddies and I will have some fun ganking hordes tonight.

[plantation]

I didn't follow this at all, just voted when it was time. I thought the Alliance bike looked great but the shell thing on the back with the treads completely ruined it. If they had gone with a more classic look, as in an actual bike, I would've voted for it

[Magemaer]

Pretty much.
Whole thing was a bad move imo, as ppl are mad with the lack of content and the contest incited yet more crying due to an ongoing faction favoritism.

[Felarion]

Of course Horde won Blood and Thunder !!!. Oh and i think next blizzcon should bo open by Sammy with his growl instead of Chris Metzen.

Also i think alliance bike could look much much better with normal wheel on the back instead of tank thread.

[Bullettime]

That is much less likely.

Yeah....Alliance has a very slight edge in population but I would argue that it's more filled with weekend warrior types in comparison to the Horde. There's also just a general apathy towards the Alliance by the Alliance's own players that has largely stemmed from how they've been portrayed in game since Cataclysm.

Meanwhile, the Horde has been gaining more of a diehard super fanboy mentality towards theirs because they've been written to feel awesome and feel like conquerors in everything they do.

The vote cheating didn't help anything either in this case.

[Magemaer]

Good analysis, Bullettime. That sums it.

[Deleted]

Apart from the whole "outnumber" and "faction-pride" thing...does it really surprise anyone? It was obvious from day 1.

Meanwhile, the Horde has been gaining more of this "diehard super fanboy" mentality towards the Horde.

^This

That said, I think Didier's behaviour was "a bit" over the top. This whole lowered voice "HOOORDE!" thing...meh.

[ryudaraku]

You know that comment is hilarious when you think about the fact that the alliance are the ones with the Kings and Queens and Nobility and what went on with real life Royalty and Inbreeding.

[fatal]

There wasn't a single thing about the show that was even remotely surprising.

[Huntingbear_grimbatol]

If the alliance bike would just have a fucking front wheel instead of a fucking track it would look much better... I also think the design is too much "Knights in shiny armor" instead of the regular alliance swordsman, honestly the amount of chrome on the bike is stupid... The back end also rides way, way too low.

[Every Pwny]

I like Samwise getting into it, it was cute. At least he wasn't Metzen who looked like he died inside on stage especially when he said "for the alliance" or whatever, probably so sad to draw the short straw and be on the alliance team.

[Al Gorefiend]

Did anyone actually think Alliance would win? Every unofficial "Which bike will win?" poll had Horde at like 70% of the votes.
