Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Avikur]

Sorry bit late to the party, is a video going to go live in 50 minutes with the announcement or is it a live stream?

Sorry but late to the party, is a video going to go live in 50 minutes with the announcement or is it a live stream?

Live Stream /10

[NikolaiShade]

Yes /10char

AHAHAHAHAH I'm dying over here... and the only thing I'm really happy to know could probably be fake is that mess of a talent tree lol

edit- interesting idea if implemented as an artifact weapon tree tied to the character

[huth]

Everyone gets a dragon form! Everyone gets humanoid dragon customizations!

Only for it to be taken away in 11.0 after we get the next borrowed power system.

;-;

Here's a Dragon, there's a Dragon
And another little Dragon
Funny Dragon, Fuzzy Dragon
Dragon, Dragon,
Bard

[Wangming]

HourS? This is literally the last hour we have without new Info about the next WoW expansion.

Time went crazy fast though, must've been Corona.

Yeah that was a typo. Last 50 minutes. Hooly shit. And we might be back to square on. What a wild ride. Best leak season for sure.

The talent tree was the best thing of the whole leak.

I hate that I recognize the song.

Right, there's absolutely no way I'm going to keep up with the thread. Enjoy the ride, everyone!

If I can ask only one thing, and while unlikely it'll help, try not to be too toxic to eachother when someone gets proven right/wrong. <3

[Hellspawn]

"Elune is a moon goddess of the cosmic realm of Life."

Remember how the Oracle in Zereth Mortis was speaking draconic when she talked about the Life zereth?

Ysera ending up in Ardenweald alongside other Wild Gods and Loas.

In the current lore the language of the Night Elf is inspired/close to by the language of Elune. So unless they change that this may make not much sense.
I think it is more likely that Dragons are an expression of Azeroth the titan.

[Raetary]

Sorry, just finished working (still from home right now), are you telling me there is no invoker? no talent tree remake? no drakthyr? they were all fake?

We do not know.

[ercarp]

Right guys, now with the extreme liklihood that Evokers and Dracthyr are fake. PLACE YOUR BETS:

Tinker

Dragonsworn

Micro Classes

Or still team Evoker?

Or NO Class

What are your final class predictions based off the entirety of the leak season including todays events!?

I'm going with Dragonsworn, Mail, 3 specs - MPS, RDPS, Healer.

What I want is a Dragonsworn class that uses Mail like you said.

As for what we'll actually get... I'm kind of scared. What if they just give us this new toy dragon looking race and no new classes at all?

All I can imagine is you perched up on a tree laughing down at all of us as we inevitably fall into chaos.

[huth]

mmoc doesn't ban leakers, the people getting banned are probably ban evading or making an alt.

Alternately, they may be ban evading and making alts.

[NikolaiShade]

The talent tree was the best thing of the whole leak.

one talent tree implemented like a paragon points tree maybe, two trees, one base class one spec was a bit impractical

[Kathranis]

Watch them release two trailers, one of WotLK Classic and one for Dragonflight, and thats it.

"More News to come soon!"

Watch them pull it off.

It should (read: better) be comparable to what we'd expect from a BlizzCon announcement and What's Next panel, given that they had almost certainly intended to announce this back in February during BlizzConline. They've had an extra two months to prepare material.

I'm expecting at least an hour long presentation with a gameplay/features announcement trailer, a "what's next" style rundown of the story and new features and systems, and a look at some of the new zones, dungeons, and creatures. Plus a website and press kit and all the stuff that goes with that.

I'd like to see a cinematic trailer, too. They've been doing full CGI cinematic trailers as their Blizzcon reveals since Legion and they haven't put out any major cinematics for any games since D2R. I don't exactly expect it, but it'll be disappointing if they don't have one.

I'd also like to get the equivalent of a "Deep Dive" panel, but they might just do a media tour deal with interviews, press kits, blog posts, etc.

[Khaza-R]

Well folks I have to jump into a meeting so I will miss the reveal but I think what we will see

- New NE / UD capitals
- Profession overhaul
- Some new gimmick with hatching your own dragon and customizing it as it grows and levels up
- Dragon Isles and overworld map redesign (no world map but different sections of Azeroth that will be elaborated on)
- Tinker class (kidding - maybe)

Anyways enjoy the reveal. I shall wee you when this thread becomes the chrysalis to the alpha/beta discussion thread.

If there aren't any shaggy parrots I'm going to mock you.

[horizon nowhere]

Dragon class or bust!
