Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Jodmos]

I can't even find a 2018 Reign of Fire on IMDb.

It's called Dragon Kingdom. Apparently called Reign of Fire in France.

That's what the current writers were working on before they came to Blizzard

DAMN the CGI.

[Ferlion]

It's a pretty god awful movie. It's a cool concept and fun enough but it is awful on every level of an actually good movie.

If it's fun enough, it's a good movie imho

Ain't no reason to complicate it more than that. Live life to be enjoyed and just dig it, ya know?

That being said we are likely talking about different movies cuz I meant the 2002 one

[ercarp]

Found this one on 4chan guys:

Explodion of Garrosh
New race: Escaper
New class: Iron Orc
Plot: Garrosh must escape from jail (because he is alive and now is in jailed by Anduin the King!) and we must be the ones to free him that's why we are called the Escaper because we help him escape. Varian will return in heroic adventure alongside other past villains like Illidan and Cataclysm.
New zone: Jail of the Garrosh (imprisoned deep within the muds of Durotar is Garorsh jail made by Anduin the King). Garrosh lives here now and but has been made imprisoned..... and we mus tbreak his will to make him survive. Because in the end only one can stand as King of Horde: Thrall.
Release date: July 7, 1998 (retroactivfe release)
Additional infos:
- Diablo 4 has been UNreleased due to unlegal fedback
- Overwatch 2 will be entering PERMANENT BETA in soon next month
- "Warcraft: Rats" mobile game coming soon (racing title)

Found this one on 4chan guys:

This looks like it was written out by an AI. Must be true then

Found this one on 4chan guys:

Just six more days and this will all be over……

[Jodmos]

Hmm.

Why does the WoW tweet from yesterday say: "The Expansion Reveal Event kicks off April 19"?

Makes it sound like they're staggering it.

Previous expansion reveals have had some other stuff going into detail about art, new stuff, and general overview of the expansion so I expect the reveal to only be the start of released info.

[Shadochi]

Hmm.

Makes it sound like they're staggering it.

Might be staggered, or might be the panels they usually have at blizzcon (deep dive, announcement, artwork, systems...) for a new expansion split among multiple streams/recording and released over one or two days. I mean if that is the case then I don't have an issue of it being over 2 days, but if they just start drip feeding us info I wont like it.

Could also be because of all the press and media interviews with info

"From the Executive Producer of Game of Thrones and the Special Effects Team behind Harry Potter."

I almost feel like that should count as defamation.

[Khaza-R]

Hmm.

With a lack of BlizzCon thats certainly possible. But I think it would be more like the reveal and then moving what would the be the developer panels to other weeks. Which personally I am fine with.

Or because alpha is starting the same day (hopium)

[8bithamster]

Temporal Shield already does that too.



Considering your "friends" are now saying we can't have a future class because Blizzard could only come up with 2 DH specs, I would say that prediction was rather accurate.

How is it accurate?

We do not have Tinkers and 0 indication the next expansion will have them
We have Demon Hunters despite you saying it will never happen

Please educate us on how your prediction was accurate? I mean, if by accurate you mean "missed the mark so much that it created an alternate reality in which you are right" sure

[ulillillia]

So why are we giving any kind of credit to this Scaleface guy, or that Twitter?

Because they got Demon Hunters and Illidan right?

LMAO

He didn't even get Legion right. He said Gul'dan would see Illidan train his Demon Hunters in a mirror, which makes no sense, cause Illidan was dead at the time.

Illidan, Demon Hunters and Gul'dan were a good guess for the expansion after WoD and you saw it in many speculations, ideas and "leaks".

The leak that got Legion right included Order Halls, Artifact Weapons and Broken Isles as a continent.

People constantly complain about balance issues, recently more than ever before.

Large portions of the fanbase has no idea what balance actually is. Next.

That, and even if they were so imbalanced it was unplayable, it's still time for something actually new to play. It's been 7 years.

You don't win people back by iterating.

Large portions of the playerbase only listen to streamers or the top 1% when it comes to their opinions on balance.

Balance in SL (at least before 9.2, idk I haven’t played it yet) has objectively been the best it’s ever been.
I don’t think I’ve seen a single spec be blacklisted from groups for M+ or raid because everything is viable.

That and they like to parrot “balance classes before adding a new one” just because they don’t want anything new.
(They use that same argument for new races too. “Add more to existing ones”)

PvP is a different story because blizzard doesn’t really balance PvP and PvE separately and until they do PvP will always have a slight imbalance.

Those are where the real meat of new info (at least in general) comes from. hopefully they'll release that sort of stuff quickly and then go slower with more detailed info about speciifc things over time.

This is what I would bet on as well.

While I'd love this as a player, I will quit and retire on the spot as a dev.
