Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Izalla]

I suggest everyone gets a good amount of sleep tonight. Announcement week starts tomorrow and as we all know the day before usually isn't one to not be paying attention. Don't forget to enjoy the ride, everyone!

I am so glad I ended up doing chat support for a new hire group at work this week because it gave me an hour long lunch beginning right at the start of the announcement AND I'm only answering questions for newbies over chat so I can keep an eye on this thread as much as I want to!

Wasn't it stated that Turalyon will replace Anduin?

He has been filling in for all of Shadowlands and since Anduin doesn't plan on returning right away he is still serving as de-facto leader.

[Gorefiend1]

From what I know/have heard, it will be rather lengthy; however, I am hearing mixed signals as to whether it will be live (livestream) or pre-recorded (livestream).

I personally would not mind it being pre-recorded as long as it will be lengthy and filled with lots of info!

Can't wait to see Turalyon's campaign to get rid of the Horde once and for all, and also support his wife hooked on Void juices.

Just go back a few pages before the leak. If I remember well we just accepted our vampire overlords. It was San'layn, Darkfallen, Dark Ranger, all that jazz. Good times.

I loved those brief moments of people not shitting on the Darkfallen/San'layn/Dark Rangers. Such nostalgia! Much WoW!


Also here's my predictions for the 10.0 Reveal.






Theme
What I Want: Rebuilding, Regrowth, and for the world to reflect the damage the Scourge is doing. Mixed bag of problems.
What I'll Get: Dragons.

New Races
What I Want: Darkfallen and Saberon
What I'll Get: A dragon race, while not what I want, isn't so bad.

New Class
What I Want: Dark Ranger and Necromancer
What I'll Get: A Dragon class which is better than no class at all.

Main Characters
What I Want: Anything but the boring gang. I try not to like any characters in WoW anymore because I no longer have faith that they'll be treated right.
What I'll Get: Thrall, Jaina, and the rest of the boring gang.

New Features
What I Want: Evergreen side content. More customization for all races, consistent baseline customization categories for all races, class skins/customization with a focus on racial flavor, more cosmetics, tameable furlines in multiple colors, ducks, peafowl and cheetah hunter pets, nice looking hunter tier sets, racial questlines for everyone, etc.
What I'll Get: Maybe two are three things I want, a couple surprises/things I didn't know I wanted, and new iterations of old systems.

Same boat. My lunch is 1-2 so just in time to miss it all happening live. Im probably just gonna go ghost on social media and the internet till I get home and can watch the livestream in order.

Same but I'm an hour ahead of you I assume as 1pm is exactly when it starts for me!

[Three Faced Goddess]

Welcome to Warcraft in 2023: Everyone can time travel & also go back & forth to the realm of death. On Mondays we kill boar.
New Races
What I Want: Darkfallen Allied Race
What I'll Get: Darkfallen Allied Race

How are you so sure? I'd love to have this kind of faith.

[Tetley]

I personally would not mind it being pre-recorded as long as it will be lengthy and filled with lots of info!

My guess is it will be pre-recorded and they play the recording during the livestream event. This is to avoid technical issues and, as far as I am aware, quite common.

High-five on the "thirst trap aspects"! Hahaha

[Chickat]

Would need a juicy new leak to discuss if we plan to go through 278 pages in 2 days.

My guess was 2300, and I got close, but I think I'm gonna come up 40 or 50 short. We need another leak.

[Vakir]

The day before is usually pretty juicy.

[cone of cold]

Still wish we could’ve gotten the skinny models for Kul Tirans.

It would reinforce unhealthy body images.

[Three Faced Goddess]

Hahaha! I fully expect this expansion to produce large quantities of aspect fan art like Shadowlands did for Daddy D. God, there's a butt ton of Denathrius fanart. Not that I'm complaining.

I will be shocked if we don't make it to 2300 before the announcement begins.

I don't know if you saw my bingo card but I also had it as one on mine =)

The unhealthy body image that humans come in small, medium, and large.

[Local Ardenweald Faerie]

Someone shoot me a bingo template please? I want to take part!

Ever heard of bulimia and anorexia? Young girls starve themselves to try and achieve unrealistic looks.
