Warlords of Draenor – How New Character Models Get Made, Garrison Updates

[Eighty1]

Pleased I didn't buy WoD.

Did the free week & most friends agreed it's dated & passed its sell-by-date.

The gfx are about 10yrs out of date. The quests are the same.

Funny how it goes... me and all my friends think this is likely the best xpac Blizz ever made, on par with TBC and better then WotLK. We will see how it will grow further in patches, but for now I have never had more fun and got back that old feeling, it feels like vanilla/TBC period.

[Granyala]

Yep, pretty much how I expected them to do the poor Draenei females faces.
Damn hilarious video though, I give them that.

[Shirohibiki]

Aw I was expecting them to show the actual process of upgrading their models

This was still funny/cute though.

Yeah, I was hoping for this as well. But I agree, it's adorable!

[BrokenHearthstone]

inb4 "omg they spent time on this short animation instead of fixing all the gamebreaking bugs"

i was literally knew people would say this because hearing this community complain so much has made me always think these things

You're missing out man, but whatever have fun with that new CoD game you got.


Best Expansion since Wrath and BC so far, love it and I can't stop playing it!!!

[Zoaric]

Ah, Blizz... always with the good humor.

[Milton]

If you speed up the video x5 times and put a benny hill track on it it shows their process for creating the Night Elf Male model.

You sir just won the internet today

[Ohforfsake]

Poor moo. The guy was half-asleep while making the gnome already and looks like spaced out completely on the next one. So they had to copy-paste male tauren skins and some animations are missing(breathing) or atrocious(jump) not to mention the face itself looks nothing like old one.

So, if I understand the invasion progression correctly (see as it says "each" reward):
You get silver -> silver reward
You get gold -> gold reward (different reward in same week)
You get silver -> bronze reward (you already got silver this week)

Or is it one reward per week.

[Zathrendar]

Could we just see a glimpse of the new blood elf models, and plans for improving ones that were under-done, like the NE model?

They have time to make videos but not fix the servers... gg

Yes. The server engineers are also cinematic animators.

And Chris Metzen also work in the kitchen prep the foods for all the staffs.

I see you cannot stop playing the game. Let's put a server offline.

[Easo]

I must admit I laughed.

[Chib]

Would be nice to do those invasions...

Well that was if there was a working Garrison server to allow me to load into my Garrison, mind you it would also be good if I had a working EU Silvermoon to allow me to login to my character first.

[Malacrass]

Kind of dissappointed that it wasn't a real video about how the characters were done, would be really interested in that.

Sadly I didn't see the humor as well :S

It is one time per week. From what I understand though, it is your invasion that matters. So if you help a friend and he only get silver, you can still get gold on yours.

[Mellrod]

If these rankings are awarded to the commander of the garrison and his/her party members, and if these rankings can grant you rewards, i wonder if at some point we'll see more strangers socializing and grouping up together to help each other out and get whatever rewards are given for defending from invasions.

Oh right, i forgot that the only employees running blizzard are the cinematic team that only ever works on x-pac cinematics and cutscenes before launch. I can't believe they'd actually have enough free time to make lighthearted WoW machinimas. How dare they!

[Jeego]

GM Island prison!

I was hoping there'd be at least one more person that would see this.
