Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Alanar]

That eye colour is unmistakable:



Old God expansion confirmed? He disguised himself as a fish, now he disguises himself as a dog?

No its not old god stuff lol. Reaching here.

[Edlarel]

Except the globes I'm talking about are from a titan facility that keeps watch over the whole planet, therefore it should have all the landmasses. But it didn't. No Kul tiras or Zandalar on the Ulduar globes, for example.

You are reading really hard into this thing. Like I said by your logic there can be no more landmasses added. Period.

I fail to understand why anybody's continuing to let Ersula troll them in this thread. We all know what's going on, even E. There's no more reason to debate the already pointless topic unless ya'll are just looking for greater page count.

Fair enough. I'm done talking about it anyway.

Until we get a new landmass, anyway!

[Soulwind]

I'm far more interested in the new DMF music.
That's some good shit.

Do we know if there's a specific reason they added the Freehold motif to the Dark Moon Faire? Like, are they adding a minigame about boats/pirates?

All of it is for the new dance minigame.

They probably just picked it because its very upbeat.

[Dhomeli]

Not sure if anyone posted yet, but I think 5m30s in this video of Anduin’s 9.2 music is Arthas’ WC3 theme? At least I think that’s what it’s from.

Aw. They should totally use some One Night in Karazhan music, then.

They should make a new ride like the roller coaster that's a rip off of the Pirates of the Caribbean. That would be great.

[masilya111]

Yes you're right, it's "Tragic Confrontation" from WC3. It was also used in the Uther animated short.

[huth]

It's not even WarCraft or Blizzard. Just a Unity asset package.

[Plehnard]

It's kind of weird that this zone is kind of the creation machine but there's no hint of "shaping of the world" in the music.
That's a missed opportunity.

[Pheraz]

You mean like in this Manowar song?
"Achilles, Agony and Ecstasy in eight parts"

[TheFirstOnes]

There are references to Call to Arms (Namely the WC3 Human ending theme) with the Jailer stuff, alongside the Bolvar theme and Sargeras stuff, it's p cool though. And as it was stated originally, there are 6 Zereth's, with inner sanctums akin to the Sepulcher, which is the very core of Death, and the Heart of Eternity is just the heart of Death itself, so I'm fine with this not JUST being the only creation engine/workshop out there, and I'm sure more themes like Shaping of the World will be played in one of them at least lol.

Zovaal is just WoW's Satan, he's not the actual final battle, and he's only the pinnacle of Death's Cosmic War ordeal regarding power hierarchy, but that's it tbh.

[Lady Atia]

Who is this

He's quite a chad in the Blizzard office, atleast that's what I heard. And his guild does some boosts I think.

[Syegfryed]

the lame tentative of pull out nostalgia with anduin and arthas in the janitor raid is rly not working for me.

shadowlands being the main story of Sylvanus, anduin and the bald man is rly not working at all as an warcraft expansion, maybe it would in a standalone book. I sure as hell can't wait to see this expansion over.

[rainhard]

You would be right, it is indeed but a very small part of it anyways, perhaps used for a single moment in the fight?

[Dracullus]

Ah okay, thank you - so Thursday it might be.

Since they put build on Tuesday, could be even today. And as people noticed, today is 09.02.

Maybe September 2 is the release date of 10.0 !

I think everything is on track for Q1 2023 release. They start Alpha after last patch on PTR is done and we will still have 9.2.5 that will launch.. May or June I guess? June/July Alpha would mean February/March release.

[Izalla]

Yea. Given the climates on the south tips of EK, Kalimdor and Pandaria it would make more sense that the bottom end of the current map is near the equator, not south pole.

Unless I'm misremembering, Blizz devs have actually acknowledged that themselves during Q&A at one of the Blizzcons. Can't remember if it was Red Shirt Guy who asked them or not.

If that's the case, then there's a whole lot of Azeroth that's not on the map. Makes you wonder if they think of that anymore...

Yeah, you are correct. It's been a while since the last time I heard this theme, nostalgia hits hard. I wonder what role will Arthas play during the fight, if any at all.
