Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Revamp Man]

so i think an undocumented change today was they put in the pocopoc stuff that has been missing because i finally got a new color scheme after the first couple

[huth]

They will have to update the Cata-era backgrounds eventually.

That's art team, not UI, though.

[DiscipleofCazicThule]

I imagine the next couple PTR updates will be similar until the expansion announcement. Gotta keep your cards close to your chest and all that.

Probably so, no real reason to push to much out more to PTR & risk spoiling more at this point. Though on or after the 19th, I suspect we'll see the flood gates open a bit more.

Jack Nicholson meme...Yes. YEs. YES!

Yeah, maybe not my best meme, but that happens when you spend only a minute or two on imgflip.

The HYPE is real! Only 2 more weeks! Let's hope for a BIG announcement with LOTS to talk about and, of course, to speculate on.

You know what's frustrating? The amount of HYPE we all felt when the Bolvar/Lich King still photo leaked ONE WEEK from Blizzcon 2019. Instead, he had very little to no relevance in the expansion overall. I REALLY hope they don't ruin another character(s) in the Dragonflight cinematic. Please be good!

Bring me a reclaimed Gilneas and I'll stay subbed forever.

I mean, shouldn't you know?

If it's actually really promising, it's gonna be a painfully long wait to the expansion release sometime around Q1-Q2 of next year. There are already so many games and TV shows I'm waiting for right now and they're all mostly happening at the very end of 2022, so 10.0 would be the longest wait. Hopefully we get Wrath Classic before that to keep us busy.

Dragonsongflight is the name, there was a logo/key art leak that I'm still torn on, apparently someone "leaked" the "cinematic" but it's probably bogus, micro-class leak but that's guaranteed fake unless they're taking all "endgame systems" and making them account-wide.

Honestly I'm just waiting for leaks to catch up to Dragonflight enough that people start throwing in why we should care. Because we all know the Aspects aren't turning evil so why are we going to the Dragon Isles if not to kill them?

Because Xal'atath is going there to finish the job on Azeroth or something vague like that. Thats all the reason we need.

What reason did we have to go to Pandaria? We don't need a compelling reason if the content and story is good. MoP story was simple and basic but good. Shadowlands was convoluted and bad. We want more simple basic stories.

Maybe it's the years of speculation but Murozond and the Infinite feels... hollow to me.

I always assumed if we delt with them again it'd be through an Ancient Kalimdor expansion. Or, y'know, anything time-themed at all.

Could see them being involved but I don't think they're our next Jailer/Sylvanas/N'Zoth/Sargeras/Gul'dan/Garrosh...

Still, it is better than a lot of the "It's a world revamp and dragons are there because we needed a new location" leaks.

Whats wrong with a back to basics story?

I'm figuring wotlk classic as a stopgap before 10.0 is a near certainty. Probably some extra bonus for it if you preorder Dragonflight.

November 2022 for Wrath Classic or 10.0? Because there's no way in hell 10.0 is coming out that early. They need a long, Legion-style testing phase with a ton of player feedback (most of which hopefully won't be ignored this time) to make 10.0 as good as it can be.

[Chickat]

Maybe but I've had enough tentacles after BFA for one decade.

I got some bad news for you then. We will have tentacles again either in 10.0 or 11.0 most likely. I belive Xal'atath is probably going to be the catalyst that sets of a 11.0 LightVS void expansion.

Interesting point from Reddit user BattleMonkeyz about the broken road south of the Wyrmrest Temple: https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comment..._leak_is_true/

It's obviously the Path of the Titans, we know that much, but I don't think we know where the road is supposed to have led. Strand of the Ancients would have been my first guess but we don't see any remnants of such a path leading north on the SotA map.

The Northern Dragon Isles zone leading all the way to the middle of the continent and the Uldaz facility maybe?

10.0 is guaranteed 2023.

[Fiercelord]

I have never thought about Demon Hunters getting another spec, but after seeing this HS photo, I guess ranged fel arrow shooting would be cool.

10.0 is guaranteed 2023.

Didn't think we'd get confirmation from Blizzard about release dates before the announcements, but here we are.

[Chickat]

Well all we know is not this year. That can mean a lot of things. It can mean next january. Since this year is expected to be super light on the content they might want to make 2023 their year.

You know I'm one of those weebs, right? :P

I honestly don't know why OW2 is taking so long. D4 I understand.

I kind of expected OW2 to release holiday 2021 originally, but I always expected D4 to be 2023 or 2024.
