Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Nymrohd]

idk then man, Pelagos meant what he said but then he saw the influx of souls from RP servers and decided that maybe the maw was a good idea

Also IIRC EK is in area quite smaller than Kalimdor (but both could be bigger if they made proper important locations)

Honestly Kul Tiras is perhaps the first time in WoW I felt a kingdom had a reasonable scale. Not a good scale, but a reasonable one. Stormwind could if they revamped the adjacent zones properly and they did not look like disaster zones. Lordaeron ones could never.

[Fahrad Wagner]

Well, what wouldn't you? Don't leave us hanging. I have Professor Woland on the line and he is really interested.

"What would you give for an upscaled world revamp?"

Me, an "intellectual":

I agree, they did a good job with KT.

I am truly a WoW fan, through and through, nothing more. I love WoW and, like everyone else (mostly), I am HYPE AF for 10.0 news. Praying for a 9.2.5 PTR build!

[Marlamin]

who said that Anduin has an encrypted model? in 9.2.5 I didn't find it on wowhead. In trying to understand the future of the characters, the narrative seems incoherent.

Wowhead didn't news it (it's also not really huge news or anything, since it's well, encrypted).

Well we still haven't dealt with

Denathrius
Azshara
Gallywix
Xal'atath

Granted we all know the true big bad is Silas Darkmoon

But yes, there are enough loose threads to create a crazy Azeroth. Hmmmm what is Magatha doing nowaday?

so im convinced Xal is either
1. void lord
or
2. Old god because theres one more according to small hints in chronicles

either way she has a connection to the thing under the sunwell and that would give her power to make a void flight

I want a Xal expansion SO FUCKING BAD. She's gotten all the mystery and buildup the Jailer wishes he got.

The most comical thing about all these 'leaks' are the EXCRUCIATING detail they all give on the story ahead when absolutely NO real Leak has ever given that much info before 'vague story beats, a name and some general themes'.

For all you leak writers for the days and weeks ahead, take note:

Full cast list with defining story arcs for every character: Red Flag and fake
Mention of Cinematics within zones/names of cinematics: Red Flag and fake
Full details on Patch details: OBVIOUS Red Flag and fake
Excessive amount of 'wish list items' like 'Player housing, 5 new allied races, class skins and classes being every race': Obvious Red flag and fake

[Shadochi]

My favorite leak ever was Voljin and a vase doing something lol

Yeah, that one was so out there, but after the announcemet so obvious that it was from someone who got to see the power point

well, wxd "wow ex dev" guy leaked legion months before blizzcon, he wroted whole intro cinematic and stuff about dh and overall theme which were just 1 to 1 confirmed later on blizzcon. He leaked it on mmo-c and twitter, but ppl have short memory

I cannot find his account anymore maybe its deleted but posts should be easy to find.

HAHA! Brilliant, 10/10 my friend. I surely wasn't expecting Sheev.

I remember that haha, good old days

On top of this, giving way too much info about who you purport yourself to be. THere was one "leak" some time back I recall, the person gave "details" about who they were, stuff about how they were a high ranking employee at an advertising firm that deals with Blizzard and so on and so forth and worked in like three specific places. In trying to give themselves credit, they outed themselves as either a complete idiot (because it would've been stupidly easy to identify who they were) or too much of a try hard.

Honestly, do we even want a real leak? At this point, let's just ride the HYPE train and wait until the 19th. It's only 20 days away.

[Zankai27]

No, EoA was a trademark put in by Blizzard to troll fans right before Blizzcon and named a zone in the next expac after it and referenced it. They did this before with The Dark Below.

Tides of Vengeance is the fake leak referenced as a patch name.

That's just blatantly wrong, Eye of Azshara was never officially trademark by Blizzard. And the second half of what you said is literally what the above poster said.

At this point, we've likely already had a real leak, whether or not if the person posting knew it was is up for debate, though. There's so many "leaks" at this point we've probably already hit the infinite monkey theorem.

With the state of the company and many departures at both high and low levels, from the scandals to the MS acquisition, I find it hard to believe it's not out there.

Wait, you mean like an actual leak, or someone just lucky guessing? Because otherwise i dont see how the person wouldnt kn0ow

It was literally filed with the Overwatch trademarks.


They literally did a bit on the name at Legion Gamescom

And I don't bother reading every single post in this horrendous fucking thread, so sorry I repeated something somebody else said.

I have said it many times in the past, and I will say it again: the dryer the leak season, the better the Blizzcon expansion reveal

That's the part that's up for debate!
