Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Revamp Man]

Possibly the worst cinematic yet in terms of hype

dude i was 100% not sure what was going on i just thought "OMG ITS GREECE!!! OH MY GOD ROCK BOY DONT DIE!!! OMG DRAGONS!!!"

[damonskye]

And that's it?

No info at all about the dungeons & raids? No fun side systems like Ember Court or Island Expeditions? No character-specific factions like covenants?

I'm shocked about how little we've been told today.

[Doffer]

Man I am SO SAD that we got no news on class skins and customizations.. no news on glyphs or heritage armors, and no player housing..

[bagina]

UI refresh is GOAT, I respect that. Dragon race customization made me think of Oblivion lolll

[therumblings]

So no pre orders now?

[username993720]

Seems pretty solid.
No big bad that's gonna turn out to be the most cheesy character of all time.
No loads of systems and grinding.
Just simple adventure and focus on RP.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

So this expansion got announced during Aries season. A good sign.

[Deventh]

So that's it? I have better memories of Legion announcement.

I have better memories of BfA and Shadowlands announcements than this one, to be completely fair.

[Jodmos]

If only they mentioned more character slots I'd have got a line on my bingo card.

[Chickat]

By the way

I CALLED IT

The new race and class are the same.

Yeah not sure how I feel about that tbh.

[Destinas]

Release date? Uh? Hello?

They've literally never had a set date for an expansion when it was announced. Sometimes they will say a year, but other than that, no.

Hell, patches only ever have a confirmed date when it's like a week or two away.

[Alanar]

The cinematic felt like there was to much focus on nothing.. was that Tyr in the chair? some envoirments that we will nevr see like that in game and some flying

[Zexaniro]

zones are back to excellence after the duds from the past few xpacs
thematically interesting, story is 'keep it simple' which is much needed
lack of new big features apart from new class is disappointing, but the pros make this xpac off to a good start in my eyes.

[Thorqin]

Everything about the SL announcement was better.

That's how bad this S-show was.

[Jodmos]

Evoker looks cool, but I'm wondering if you HAVE to remain in the scaley form in combat. The human forms look really cool, but I get kind of uncomfortable with the scaley look.

Looks like you change as it uses the form for some attacks like breathing fire

[Edoll]

I wonder if the evoker's can dragonride themselves and not use a mount.

[ChairmanKaga]

And that's it?

No info at all about the dungeons & raids? No fun side systems like Ember Court or Island Expeditions? No character-specific factions like covenants?

I'm shocked about how little we've been told today.

There's short blurbs on the site about the dungeons and first raid.

I like the human form, they'd really save this race before it even releases LOL, if they make a glyph where we can just use the human form in combat.

[Emet-Selch]

It's funny how people were shouting for the last 12 months for them to take a pause and make a grounded expac so they could fix current systems, and now people are upset they're doing that. And the Drac'thyr pixel peekers are pretty quiet too LOL

Personally I'm super interested to see what they could do with this.

[AngerFork]

So no pre orders now?

Doesn't look like it. Kind of surprised, I thought for sure we'd get some sort of pre-order form with a bit of stuff to unlock at the end there.
